[Intro: Tech N9ne] Somebody should have told me Life can treat you really coldly A lot of love that people show me But when they go I’m hella lonely
[Verse 1: Tech N9ne] When the music and the show stops Security keep my bus door locked That way I’m not receiving no shots MJ, our little bro dropped and that’s why they keep me so blocked I’m in the star coach now In the back by myself, I listen to our dope sounds But...There was no women to round up This hound just sleeps deeply, anticipatin' the next town’s luck It’s glitz and glamour when you’re on stage Happy ‘cause you and your homies paid But a lot of my love ones up and gone away Because I put my music first, for that it's lonely days
[Hook: Krizz Kaliko] Oh, ain’t no phones ringing, ain’t no one's speaking when you’re alone Feels like there's no reason for me to keep breathing if I’m gonna be alone I can’t sleep alone and I can’t go eat alone Yeah, the crowd gonna shout, but when the lights go out You know, you know, you know You know, you know, you know You know, you know, you know You know me being me, you wouldn’t think I’d be alone
[Verse 2: Tech N9ne] Got off my tour July 7 my children Kicked it with me up to the 24th, then they go home Even though my home used to be their home But due to separation and altercations with their mama’s it left me so alone And when my girl visits, she got to leave ‘Cause she’s independent and has a need to make her own cheese At night before sleeping I’m on knees Alone, please, I don’t wanna have the lonelies on beat My two family members that room with me They zoom quickly to work and dip out of town, you would assume it'd be Party, party every night a narly nudy show But it’s hardly party when you’re starting in the studio I can’t wait for the meet and greets, making fans That’s why I be hella happy, hugging and shaking hands When I perform I want everybody to know I stretch the show ‘cause when it’s over everybody go
[Hook: Krizz Kaliko] Oh, ain’t no phone ringing, ain’t no one's speaking when you’re alone Feels like there's no reason for me to keep breathing if I’m gonna be alone I can’t sleep alone and I can’t go eat alone Yeah, the crowd gonna shout, but when the lights go out You know, you know, you know You know, you know, you know You know, you know, you know You know me being me, you wouldn’t think I’d be alone
[Bridge: Eric Boone] A storm cloud stalks me making what should be a sunny day Shed tears of lonesome despair in the form of rain I've devoted my life to rid you of your pain For feelings of acceptance which reveal themselves feigned Do not mind that, scream the voices in my brain But if I stop giving, only I remain Though I know not of misery For I lack the company it needs to be entertained But misery would be a nice change This solitude drives me insane
[Verse 3: Tech N9ne] Yeah, I think it’s my fault, y’all, ‘cause I’m reclusive And I’m thinking I lost brauds like Y! Exclusive And I know that I might fall, ‘cause life is stupid ‘Cause cupid shoots it and I fight off but it might produce its Love, whatever has it I run People, pets and even movies that have it, I shun Thinking back when I had a family, was glad I was some I picture myself in the future, old mad, sad ‘cause I’m one
[Hook: Krizz Kaliko] Oh, ain’t no phones ringing, ain’t no one's speaking when you’re alone Feels like there's no reason for me to keep breathing if I’m gonna be alone I can’t sleep alone and I can’t go eat alone Yeah, the crowd gonna shout, but when the lights go out You know, you know, you know You know, you know, you know You know, you know, you know You know me being me, you wouldn’t think I’d be alone
