(I've lost my head and my cool I've lost my head and my cool I've lost my head and my cool)
Listen I only note spending time away I only note the truth is spoken Best when brutally so honestly I'll let you know you set The standards lyrically for me One single middle finger, say raise it up My speech will always be free Like Martin Luther King You had meaning to me Single handedly saving music starving industry A hip hop legend was skinned like invisible ink Like even though he was whiter than me He was the first to be colorless Speaking for all of us then you let us into your family Mother father brother sister wife daughter Damn right in front of me That's when I miss my daughter desperately Your "Mockingbird" puts dents in me While touring press and reliving my song "Hate me" I was losing custody I never even saw that shit How she played me and planned and sought it fit To turn that trick and financially she would benefit My first and probably only billboard hit Was gonna pay for my two year old's college I should have hid that shit So she couldn't spend that shit It took twenty years of working Just to earn that shit, now word for word I've listened, Heard and I'm done Done
Like you don't know You act like you believe it That you're in control It's just your legal system though Now they don't think about you No they don't care about you Now every man in America Take back your control Like you don't know You act like you believe it That you're in control It's just your legal system though Now they don't think about it No, they don't care about it Now every man in America Take back your control

Any other man in America Can get screwed just like me
Like you don't know You act like you believe it That you're in control It's just your legal system though Yeah they don't think about you No they don't care about you Now every man in America Take back your control Like you don't know You act like you believe it That you're in control It's just your legal system though Yeah they don't think about it No, they don't care about it Now every man in America Take back your control
You won't understand, Probably never will. Listen slowly I'll let you know the deal Lying ass play the judge with your crying ass You had your nose wide open when you saw the cash Grimy bitch growing tired of your trying shit Women run the courts, men provide the chips Well eat up bitch until you had enough bitch But take my kids; you can kiss both my nuts bitch Telling lies cause daddy's always on the road But you're the one fucking like a groupie at a show Money hungry so you try to take my youngest from me You're a dummy honey I'll chase you across the country Bring the drama to your mamma and you mamma's mamma Cause we all know you chasing half the karma Couple ch
