I lost the thread  I lost the map 
It's not a feeling  it's a fact 
I had it once  I was on track 
Why won't it stay? I want it back 
I see you there in that magazine 
You're looking smart  you sound supreme 
You got such lip  you know the street 
You been around  you took some heat 

You mighta killed  you might be cruel 
You might be stupid but we love you 
You're in the paper  you're in the air 
You're in my head, you're everywhere 

I want it back 

You're so extreme, you're feast or famine 
You got one mission, just like a salmon 
You said in life, mistakes are many 
How come you never admit to any? 

Are you for real or are you bluffing? 
You really get me, famous for nothing 
And every morning you got a name 
In a world where people all look the same 

I want it back 

I can't give love, I don't know how 
I write in code so you won't know 
I was on drugs, I took a nap 
I didn't mean it, I want it back 

I dreamed again of paradise 
I floated steady, it felt so nice 
To sell your soul, just think of that 
I'm halfway there, I want it back 

I want it back
