So anyhow wasn't getting crazy into drugs Or anything like that But I had one night where I Ended up in a taxi cab And a woman said something to me Kinda rejected me in, like, a mean way And I hadn’t done anything wild I just expressed some interested And she expressed interest and Then I returned the Expression and then she was mean to me And she didn't reject me, rejection's fine But she was mean to me, all a sudden The taxi driver dropped her off We were in a taxi next thing you know I end up with the taxi driver Four hours later me and him Are doing cocaine together And I’m driving the taxi he's in the back He's in the back with an escort He bought me an escort I Don't want no escort, you know Luigi, that was the guy's name And we're in north Harlem and I'm Driving a taxi and the Meter is still running I'm still Paying for that taxi I wasn’t getting crazy but I had one night I had one night, I had one night I wasn’t getting crazy but I had one night I had one night, I had one night And that morning I was in New York Because I had to be on A big radio show called "The Opie With Jim Norton Radio Show" And they have, like A million listeners and it Was a huge opportunity If you'd have asked me the Night before, "Hey, man Are you gonna stay up all night partying (go, girl) before you go into the radio?" I’d have said, "No way I would never do that" And then here I was in this moment and it's 5: 00 am i gotta go to the radio, you know I mean, i got to my hotel after driving Taxi and then paying for it Dude, just blown outta my mind Dude I couldn't feel my face with either hand At first I thought something was Wrong with my hands But then I realized something Wrong with my face I get to the radio station Dude, I took three showers in 10 Minutes before I went there So you know you on some really Svelte dust if you're taking Three showers in 10 minutes and Drying off between each one And that’s cocaine, Papa I wasn't getting crazy but I had one night I had one night, I had one night I wasn't getting crazy but I had one night I had one night, I had one night And I get to the radio station And I can't even talk And the other guest for the Day was Darryl Strawberry Hall of Fame baseball player and he's You look him up and he's One of the greatest baseball Players ever but his career was Really a-altered by cocaine And here he was I was on The radio with him I had Collected his cards when I was young And I couldn't even talk (I couldn't even talk) The main gift that God had given me was My voice and I couldn't even use it Because I'd been up all night Just using drugs to feel good somehow Using drugs to feel good somehow Using drugs to feel good somehow Or using drugs to feel anything Using drugs to feel good somehow U-using drugs to feel good somehow Using drugs to feel good somehow Or using drugs to feel anything I wasn't getting crazy but I had one night I had one night, I had one night I wasn't getting crazy but I had one night I had one night, I had one night And I get to the radio station 'cause I'd Always thought in my head "Oh, Darryl Strawberry, you Think, you thought about him And you thought, oh He's on drugs he's this and that He ruined his life" But then here he was in front of me He was 13 years sober, he was eloquent Successful and I mean he was a dang King sitting in front of me And in that one moment that's where some Things lined up in my life That's where some things lined up in My mind and said, "oh, hey look" Here you are with this gift You think you have that you can communicate And you can't even talk Because you fucked up, bruh 'Cause you been out driving taxi And here you are with somebody Who you had judged As being fucked up and here he is, a king And it just lined things up In a perfect moment Where I just had this moment of, like, "Oh I need to" something needs to change for me
