I start off with a bang, boom, better than life
|
Like your pharmacist finally got your medicine right
|
Until you start to overdose on the pleasure and pain
|
And your spine starts tingling, you're feeling a little strange
|
Now you brush it off your shoulders, take a deep breath
|
It's better than being sober, puffing up your chest
|
But your heart beats through it, you're starting to act foolish
|
Your head is now spinning, you're about to really lose it
|
Elusive this lucidness, you float like a butterfly
|
And every track marks another note of your lullaby
|
But you take chances 'cause that's what being a man is
|
Plus it's romantic when you ask God for answers
|
Please, he'll never say hello to you
|
I'm the truth and the question, I flow through you
|
I'm your friends and your family, who don't know you
|
I'm that picture of sanity, I won't show you
|
|
I'm your frat party, blow it up your nose, my son
|
In your Ed Hardy, pour it, tilt, get drunk
|
Let's get it started, light it, smoke, get dumb
|
I'm the requiem, shoot it up your vein, get numb
|
I'm your frat party, blow it up your nose, my son
|
In your Ed Hardy, pour it, tilt, get drunk
|
Let's get it started, light it, smoke, get dumb
|
I'm the requiem, shoot it up your vein, get numb
|
|
I'm the answer, I provide a sense of security
|
I got all y'all convinced of my purity
|
Give me what you got, all of it, preferably
|
I might give it back when I'm done, as a courtesy
|
I'll numb the pain, no quest, that's a certainty
|
I'm the man, Monday, you've never heard of me
|
Tuesday you will search for me, tryna purchase me
|
Can't find me, turn the place burgundy
|
And I was blowing your phone last night
|
In fact I am why you ain't come home last night
|
I'm why you lost the J O, why you gotta lay low
|
Getting out is over your head, like a halo
|
Stained white shirt, holes in jeans
|
First one's free or so it seems
|
You can pay me in hopes and dreams
|
Now go and drop 'em in, like a coke machine
|
|
I'm your frat party, blow it up your nose, my son
|
In your Ed Hardy, pour it, tilt, get drunk
|
Let's get it started, light it, smoke, get dumb
|
I'm the requiem, shoot it up your vein, get numb
|
I'm your frat party, blow it up your nose, my son
|
In your Ed Hardy, pour it, tilt, get drunk
|
Let's get it started, light it, smoke, get dumb
|
I'm the requiem, shoot it up your vein, get numb
|
|
Just call me a pill, I dissolve in your system, right
|
I'm keeping it real, you need me, I'm your rhythm, like
|
A needle in a vein owned by a fiend, he feels the pain
|
Whether I'm going in or going out you need me to stay sane
|
Look, I'm your dealer's dream but your neighbor's nightmare
|
I could make you lean while you're standing right there
|
Now, could you just imagine
|
That I could change your face up like you running for a pageant?
|
Don't try to understand it, this self-inflicted damage
|
You mad 'cause you can't ban it, you can't shake me like a habit
|
See, I'm whiter than a rabbit or greener than your local park
|
Now roll me up, pass me around, make sure your lighters spark
|
You go from light to dark, they say the freaks come out at night
|
You need me just to start and now to take it down, right?
|
I got your back, see, I told you not to frown
|
I'm here to lift you up, I can also take you down
|
|
I'm your frat party, blow it up your nose, my son
|
In your Ed Hardy, pour it, tilt, get drunk
|
Let's get it started, light it, smoke, get dumb
|
I'm the requiem, shoot it up your vein, get numb
|
I'm your frat party, blow it up your nose, my son
|
In your Ed Hardy, pour it, tilt, get drunk
|
Let's get it started, light it, smoke, get dumb
|
I'm the requiem, shoot it up your vein, get numb
|
|
I need you, I need you, I need you in the morning
|
How the hell else would I get my day started?
|
Really feeling the neglect that you showing me
|
But it's money, power, respect that you owing, see
|
That's all I ask for, problems seem to down pour
|
Every time I elevate I'm closer to my downfall
|
My love for you escalating, still I need to have more
|
Don't step on me like sidewalk, promise I'll bring back more
|
I'm at best raw, I can cause war
|
I |
