Baby come back
|
|
Yo, we obviously need to tone it down a bit
|
Running round town spending time like it'¢æ¢âs counterfeit
|
Everybody catching hay fever like sinuses
|
Step in my arena let me show y'¢æ¢âall who the highness is
|
You might say I could be doing something positive
|
Humbled head down low and broke like promises
|
Soaking and broken in a joke like comics is
|
Not enough paper to be paying folks compliments
|
But when that paper got low so did my tolerance
|
And it ain'¢æ¢ât no truth in a dare without the consequence
|
Listen if it not for these hood inventions
|
I'd just be another kid from the block with no intentions
|
On the dock of that bay serving a life sentence
|
Even if I'¢æ¢âm going to hell I'¢æ¢âm gonna make an entrance
|
Yeah let em know I'¢æ¢âm getting cheese like omelets is
|
But I'¢æ¢âm the toast of the town like Thomas is
|
|
We'¢æ¢âre all on a journey
|
Down the hall of memories
|
Don'¢æ¢ât worry bout what you ain'¢æ¢ât got
|
Leave with a little bit of dignity
|
Never loved what I had
|
Always felt like I deserved more
|
But when I
|
Make it to the other side
|
Make it to the other side
|
That'¢æ¢âs when we'¢æ¢âll settle up the score
|
|
Yo, we did this in remembrance of
|
Faces from the past
|
We no longer have an image of
|
Carrying cold blood hearts
|
That never been for love
|
Brothers keep going for theirs but never get enough
|
World travelers that seen it all
|
And did enough
|
Only to return to learn
|
The world wasn'¢æ¢ât big enough
|
Damn, how long has it been?
|
I guess the jig is up
|
Now all I know is I'¢æ¢âm about to wake this n*gga up
|
Yeah that hindsight 20/20 now n*ggas dead on the money
|
Trying to take something from me
|
It'¢æ¢âs a wrap like mummy
|
Undone I am becoming and'¢æ|
|
When he'¢æ¢âs tired of running
|
Through the layers of the onion
|
He'¢æ¢âll probably she'd a tear
|
Cause they'¢æ¢âll be no more fast times
|
Just his weak mind scrolled out like a bad sign
|
He never had enough and got confused when they asked why
|
Life is only a moment in time and it passed by
|
|
We'¢æ¢âre all on a journey
|
Down the hall of memories
|
Don'¢æ¢ât worry bout what you ain'¢æ¢ât got
|
Leave with a little bit of dignity
|
Never loved what I had
|
Always felt like I deserved more
|
But when I
|
Make it to the other side
|
Make it to the other side
|
That'¢æ¢âs when we'¢æ¢âll settle up the score
|
|
I'¢æ¢âm sitting on top of the world ready to jump off
|
Thinking of various ways to break law
|
Thinking that enough is enough but still I want more
|
Thinking of how I'¢æ¢âm playing with fire that burned my young boy
|
By any means necessary'¢æ| don'¢æ¢ât give a damn
|
So every night I'¢æ¢âm on a flight that never lands
|
Be an asshole when the shit hits the fan
|
Or bet your life on a bluff and a bad hand
|
Can'¢æ¢ât win, can'¢æ¢ât lose
|
Get '¢æ?em gassed leave em leaking fuel
|
Either way the market moves
|
Cash rules kings, queens, prince and princess
|
Every night I'¢æ¢âm crossing a line that ain'¢æ¢ât the finish
|
Every thought is dark as a glass of f*cking Guinness
|
Too far gone to come back to my senses
|
Now I'¢æ¢âm on the edge of my bed making love to my meds
|
Every moments like a pistol to my head
|
When I'¢æ¢âm getting mine
|
|
We'¢æ¢âre all on a journey
|
Down the hall of memories
|
Don'¢æ¢ât worry bout what you ain'¢æ¢ât got
|
Leave with a little bit of dignity
|
Never loved what I had
|
Always felt like I deserved more
|
But when I
|
Make it to the other side
|
Make it to the other side
|
That'¢æ¢âs when we'¢æ¢âll settle up the score
|
