A lot of cats are hatin', slandering makin' bad statements Mad cause they sit on their ass just stagnating Always vacillatin', now classmates I graduated with Are wonderin' how the stupidest kid up in the class made it Sick landscapin' and jammin' down in my mans basement Getting restraints and complaints from mad neighbors Now prejudice bigots say I sound just like them damn # # Them pair of lenses ain't repairin' their impaired vision I'm on a mission escaping my own prison Inflicting more pain then you're givin' see I'm my own victim I can't believe I let you take up my time Take up space in mind, give it here, I'm takin' what's mine (Chrous) The only ounce of power that I have Is what I do with now And how I let the hours pass I dont' know how long I'm gonna last So I can't let ya snatch the powder out my hourglass Everyday that I'm awake I face the angel of death He may be taken my breath, so they can lay me to rest And by now my inner state's the only place that I rep The way that I dress is just another way to express We know that some day everybody we see will be dead and rotten Long forgotten, we oughta keep this for a normal topic Because we all get caught up in all the drama But what's the gossip gonna mean, when me and you are goners See I never did audition for a part in this play I know that some day I'll accidentally fall in my grave So I can really give a shit about what all of ya say According to me is how I'm spending all of my days (Chorus) The world will keep turnin', the inferno will keep burnin' But it's affirmative my life on Earth is impermanent And since I'm visiting and my minutes here are limited I ain't havin' or doin' shit if I ain't feelin' it I'll lend a hand to a hurt pedestrian and I will help a friend In any way that I can, but I can't let man get up in the way of my plans Make me stray from my path, I can't be takin' that chance (Chorus)
