I've been here before
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 that Rvier Phoenix went gone end up my fate
And when they drag me out of the gutter, mail the ashes to my mother
Twist the spliff if I don't finish my plate
Slip a fist for my niggas in chains, my mental was caged
See, I ain't been to prison but the feelings' the same
Shared sentiment, when and if the pen hit the page
As of late, i've been watching bitches in my space
Shit's just looking different with age
Try to make some sense of all this shit in my brain
One foot stuck in a tar pit of my ways
And if it's like that the whole time
If it's like that the whole time, we'll be alright
Staying up all night, but it's alright
And i've been stayin' up all night, but it's alright
It's me and my nibbling consciense
Nigga, I'm fixing to give up
I've been alone for the longest
It's trouble, the way that we joggin'
Nothin' gone save us or stop us
Me and my nibbling consciense
Nigga, I'm fixing to give up
I've been alone for the longest
This spliff, I ain't spliffin' 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 it, alright?'
I got my grandmama's hands, I start to cry when I see them
'Cause they remind me of seeing her
Thses the times that I needed her most, 'cause I feel defeated
And not by nothin; but myself, my second thoughts, my sec...
My hands, I start to cry when I see them
'Cause they remind me of seeing her
Thses the times that I needed her most, 'cause I feel defeated
And not by nothin; but myself, my second thoughts
My hectic process of thinkin' and all my doubts and I think
I know Nak is there sleepin', 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've been drugging
To tell the truth, I.m not supposed to be off in here
I.m supposed to be sleepin', but I've been turnin' and tossin'
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 your soul intact, let me know
