Lyrics:
were distracted by the heavens
But I tried, I tried
Please believe I really did
I went halfway 'round the world just to figure out how to live
Now I
Listen folks and I will tell a funny story
You may think it sad but I was in my glory
'Twas a cellar I crept in, cobwebs brushing by my chin
was six of us together a jolly hungry crew
and as the days went by you know our hunger quickly grew
some fool muttered death or liberty
So that night
Three passports, Three first class tickets to the money
Straight flights
I live by the cold war
Drove from round the globe
All I need is
another phone call. But she's away I'm out drinking rather heavily. I had about four or five vats of liquor. I'm stumbling home. Right. It's like no o'clock
there was more to the story than that
'Cause she plays things down but according to that
He went missing one day in the morning he ran
She's doing
holding exclusive rights to me, I mean
He flew you in this motherfucker on first class
Even went out his way so you could check in an extra bag
Now you
her or dare to break the mood
So before she woke I went out and bought us both some food
I come back with my paper bag
To find that she was gone
She'd
just thought that she was cool
Thought that I would be nice because she was new in school
We went out after dark, went for a little ride
We talked
covered in too much.
Drinking a cup of punch, tropical.
Every last Thursday of the month.
Daddy put tha hot grits on my chest in tha morning.

obsession, the acceptance of me by my
father and mother, who I had not spoken to since I had left home.
One morning my manager Alex came in and broke up one

Mama told me get it, got to pay the lease
(She Depending on Me)
Lil Cousin say he want them J's on his feet
(I got to get it for him)
other and their glasses clinked
One single unit, inseparably linked
"Got a strange premonition there's a man close by"
"Don't worry about him, he wouldn't
sittin' down
I need a black screwdriver but a butter knife will do
To the vent I went to collect all my due
Struck out the side of boss game steward
nightshirt baby, hand me my morning gown (repeat 2x)
Don't feel sleepy
I just feel like lyin' down
Gotta help me baby, help me baby
Can't do it all by myself

Ain't ate in days so it ain't no thang to click click, bitch, gimme your shit

I’ve lost wars to girls who perfectionists
I’ve lost benefits cuz of all my benefits
Only time they benefit from men who get the bread is
When
got this girl a mink sable, in return I got a cable
Her name was Fat Mabel and she broke my kitchen to table
Ate pasta with this Rasta, went out with
All I want to obtain, I gotta really work for it
I am the cock who wakes you up in the morning
Set your alarm clock with my song on it
Hit your
the morning up calling you, baby
I wasn't out with my friends in a real drunk crowd
That ain't at all how it all went down
It wasn't the whiskey
and I ain't losing my fucking noggin (yeah you are)
I ain't got a job and I went out and bought goblin about 5 times
Cause (thanks for the support) I
Someone got out the bed this morning
Some got of the floor
Some went off to work this morning
Some went off to war
Some ate half a plate and trashed
It just
