|
Now I lay me down to sleep
|
That was then, but this is now
|
I pray the lord my soul to keep
|
I let you slip away somehow
|
If I should die before I wake
|
If I should die my pain shall stay
|
I pray the lord my soul to take
|
I made you what you are today
|
|
Now as I look at myself I'm seein' someone familiar
|
Starin' back at me through every deep crack that's in my mirror
|
And as I think to myself
|
I'm hearin somebody else scream at me (shhh....)
|
I no longer hear from
|
Could it be the unknown
|
Sneaking into my zone
|
Off we roam
|
My spirituals is not alone
|
I'm visualizing this invisible clone
|
It's my own and its own
|
Rest assured its my dome
|
Maybe I need to go to bed
|
Could have sworn I just heard that voice up in my head
|
Nots while I raps
|
When it hits me (ha ha ha ha....)
|
But now it's laughin at me
|
Yo what the hell is happenin'
|
Please somebody slap me
|
No way not another physical display
|
Somethin' must got me backin' off from way back in tha day
|
But what can it be
|
I can't recall the memories so if I may ask
|
|
I just seen you yesterday
|
It's my fuckin' past
|
I just seen you yesterday
|
It's my fuckin' past
|
I just seen you yesterday
|
It's my fuckin' past
|
I just seen you yesterday
|
It's my fuckin' past
|
I just seen you yesterday
|
It's my fuckin' past
|
I just seen you yesterday
|
It's my fuckin' past
|
I just seen you yesterday
|
It's my fuckin' past
|
I just seen you yesterday
|
|
By any means was all it ever seemed to be
|
This reminiscin' with my past has got me
|
Caught up in a daydream
|
Stay in bed with niggas who can pay tha rent
|
Spending my green on panty hose and tight jeans
|
I used to be so amused
|
Cause the tools that I used to break rules
|
Only seemed to confuse as to whose bein' abused
|
Place yourself in my shoes
|
My blessed look of innocence was never refused
|
|
Now that I choose to abide
|
Hello Left Eye
|
And put my past to the side
|
I don't guess I
|
And kill a piece of my pride
|
Need to introduce myself
|
You already said hi
|
Oh so your the match that lights my fuse
|
Amuse
|
Huh, I thought I left you on on that cruise
|
You lose it
|
Your man took my place when it threw me in your face
|
So we drank up all the booze
|
|
Sing the blues
|
And yo we end up on the news
|
Sing the blues
|
We end up on the news
|
Sing the blues
|
We end up on the news
|
Sing the blues
|
I said we end up on the news
|
Sing the blues
|
We end up on the news
|
Sing the blues
|
And yo we end up on the news
|
Sing the blues
|
We end up on the news
|
Sing the blues
|
We end up on the news

Gotta get away from the past
|
If I make it I just might last
|
Gotta get away from the past
|
Trynna escape it but its movin' too fast
|

Gotta get away from the past

Trynna escape it but it's movin' too fast.

|
We was walkin' before most babies could crawl
|
Yes yes y'all
|
Above all one foot tall
|
Ain't no way I'm takin' a down fall
|
I'm restructurin' walls
|
Interruptin' your calls
|
And goin' straight to the source
|
With this nut in my balls
|
Every time the blind lead the blind
|
Another one of my kind's outta sight and outta mind
|
I'm comin' through the press
|
With this sense you can't mess
|
I'm sittin' in your dreams
|
Go ahead take a rest
|
I'm poppin off your nigga's chest
|
Should I be in distress?
|
I'm niggas poppin' on the scene
|
And they can get these
|
Thats my bitch
|
I'm his bitch
|
What the hell do they know?
|
Is that so?
|
This same day case scenario
|
And I could care less
|
About your people and their relentlessness
|
Towards the Eye
|
Say goodbye
|
|
And tell his moms to stop cryin'
|
Go tell his moms to stop cryin'
|
| His |
