(Verse 1)
Late for everything, my face to the cement
That’s how I always seen it
I spent days faded and anemic
You could see it in my face, I ain’t been eating, I’m just wasting away
Looks like the way that River Phoenix went gon end up my fate
And when they drag me out the gutter, mail the ashes to my mother
Twist the spliff if I don’t finish my plate
Slip a fist up for my ni**a’s in chains, my mental was caged
See I ain’t been to prison but the feeling’s the same
Shared sentiment, winning if the pen hit the page
As of late, I’ve been watching every bi**h on MySpace
Sh**’s just looking different with age
Try to make some sense of all this s**t in my brain
One foot stuck in a tar pit of my ways
(Verse 2)
It was like that the whole time, we’ll be alright
Stay up all night, but it’s alright
I done stayed up the whole night, but it’s alright
It’s me and my nibbling conscience
Ni**a I’m fixing to give up
I’ve been alone for the longest
It’s trouble, the way that we’re jogging
Nothing gon save us or stop us
Me and my nibbling conscience
Ni**a I’m fixing to give up
I’ve been alone for the longest
This spliff, I ain’t splitting no time soon
My brain split in two, it’s raining a bit
I hope it’s a monsoon, my face in the sink
I’m seeing my mom soon, I’m faded, I stink
Stay in it
(Verse 3)
I got my grandmama’s hands, I start to cry when I see em
Cause they remind me of seeing her
These the times that I needed her most cause I feel defeated
And I buy nothing by myself, my second thoughts, my hec
My hands, I start to cry when I see em
Cause they remind me of seeing her
These the times that I needed her most cause I feel defeated
And I buy nothing but myself, my second thoughts
My hectic process of thinking
And all my doubts and I think
I know nak in there sleeping, he on the couch, that’s my brother
Give me a boost when my confidence need it
So I love him, to tell the truth, I got a problem with eating
I be drugging, to tell the truth, I’m not supposed to be off in here
I’m supposed to be sleeping, but I be turning and tossing
To tell the truth, I miss my partna dem
To tell the truth, you can’t be loud when you’re the wrongest, fam
To tell the truth, I’m at a loss of friends
Well time waits for no man and death waits with cold hands
I’m the youngest old man that you know
If ya soul intact, let me know
