High time I go and give up the ghost Look back on my life and all I see Is a nerd obscured by weed and smoke I worry I can't do it but I know If I go for the low say bye to the high A part of my heart might start inside Might survive and lead a life I don't loathe In spite of a pipe that don't glow Love weed, proceeded to pack the bong A done deed frontin like nothing's wrong No breaks, wake and bake in bed A mistake, a flake that's faking death Loved weed, pre-flicks hot boxin rides During games, after every time I died But they're fun not dumb just on their own It was a lie I told to condone Loved weed, I burned lots of pape Lost money, instead of finding fate Don't miss it, don't even visit on holidays White knuckles, buckled down my mind is made Loved weed, what's new is missing booze No beers seven years and I’m still confused Life's weird now that I see it clear But I’m here rather fight than fly from fear I’m a quitter go ahead call me names My one hitter got me through college days I would bug out, my dug out doled the daze Stuck my tongue out like the Bum out at the VMAs Just a joke living with my folks After school but I thought I was so dope In the stairs staring at the walls Smoking dope instead of making calls Got a job but I was always high Lost my job man I wonder why I’m a slob my dunks were funkafied Drink on and off but I’d be bakin pumpkin pie Moved away left all my friends behind They forged bonds I forged A brand that's mine It caught on a career I clearly carved I smoked bongs man I’m feeling starved Came home all my friends had split Lame zone guess I’ll have a hit Not the same your frames of reference change Alone and stoned was sadly not my aim Looking back gives me an asthma 'tack It's wick wack I coulda been makin stacks Talking smack in fact I lacked in tact Too high my friends were taken a back With regret wish I could edit every word Never meant it won't forget the feelings hurt It's no excuse the abuse was too absurd I was the bully should've been the nerd I was like this even before the weed I try to fight this with Every breath I breathe I blamed others enemies were every place A drunk dad and brothers that hate my face We all suffered it's something I now accept They'd love it if I would Just show some respect No I try it's harder than it sounds But I don't hide inside the cloud I found Advice it's something you may not need It can be nice occasionally smokin weed It might help keep calm no longer tense It might help keep demons out your head If you're sad, you think your life is shit It went bad like something in your fridge Lose the bag and save your money kid Take a break, try to resist a bit I’m still me, even without the weed I love life, I even have time to read I have a wife, she's the best to me It's all right to control your destiny I prefer it, before I was blurred and mean I feel current though nobody's heard of me That's cool I'm just here to burn the beat Old school nerdy eternity I’m not done I still have lots of plans Write a book hopefully start a fam Buy a house all I want is to own some land Got it all as long as she holds my hand Next time you find you need a fix Or you're pissed and need a dog to kick Ask why what the f*ck started this? No lies love yourself like Chris
