Always in a rush Never stay on the phone long enough Why am I so self-important? Said I'd see you soon But that was, oh, maybe a year ago Didn't know time was of the essence
So many questions But I'm talking to myself I know that you can't hear me any more Not anymore So much to tell you And most of all goodbye But I know that you can't hear me any more
It's so loud inside my head With words that I should have said And as I drown in my regrets I can't take back the words I never said I never said I can't take back the words I never said
They got a nigga Shedding tears, reminiscing on my past fears Cause shit was hectic for me last year It appears that I've been marked for death, my heartless breath The underlying cause of my arrest, my life is stressed And no rest forever weary, my eyes stay teary for all the brothers that are buried in the cemetery Shit is scary, how black on black crime legendary But at times unnecessary, I'm getting worried Teardrops and closed caskets, the three strikes law is drastic And certain death for us ghetto bastards What can we do when we're arrested, but open fire Life in the pen ain't for me, cause I'd rather die But don't cry through your despair I wonder if the Lord still cares, for us niggas on welfare And who cares if we survive The only time they notice a nigga is when he's clutching on a four-five
It's so loud inside my head With words that I should have said And as I drown in my regrets I can't take back the words I never said I never said I can't take back the words I never said
Sixty thousand people all jumpin' out their seat The curtain closes, they're throwin' roses at my feet I take a bow, and thank you all for comin out They're screamin' so loud, I take one last look at the crowd I glance down, I don't believe what I'm seein' \"Daddy, its me, help mommy, her wrists are bleedin'\" But baby we're in Sweden How did you get to Sweden? \"I followed you daddy You told me that you weren't leavin' You lied to me dad, and now you made mommy sad And I bought you this coin, it says number one dad That's all I wanted, I just want to give you this coin\" \"I get the point, fine, me and mommy are goin'\" \"But baby wait, it's too late dad, you made your choice Now go out there and show em that you love em more than us That's what they want They want you, Marshall They keep screamin' your name It's no wonder you can't go to sleep
The longer I stand here The louder the silence I know that you're gone but sometimes I swear that I hear Your voice when the wind blows So I talk to the shadows Hoping you might be listening 'cos I want you to know
It's so loud inside my head With words that I should have said And as I drown in my regrets I can't take back the words I never said I never said I can't take back the words I never said Never said I can't take back the words I never said
