Mic the Benchdweller - Halfway Drunk Lyrics

Ain't no time for the haters, only time for the lovers
There is no god above us, caught up in all the ruckus
They say I got time but time's always against me
Got too many crews tryin' to misrepresent me
Spent too much time tryin' to fix broken bridges
With no reciprocation, never did I get a visit
But that's aight, steady drunk off the liquor
As I sit back and watch the snakes as they slither
How ya figure, just a broke individual
Don't need faith, f*ck tryin' to be spiritual
All I need is the bud to relax me
Low on cash so don't try to tax me
Hit me off with a dose from the potion
Too much stress but I could use some sugar-coating
And now I'm drunk and feelin' better
Feel the cool breeze, take off my sweater
Glance at my timepiece, the hands are still tickin'
Death is comin' soon and opportunities are slippin'
Yet it's just another day of dealin' with the problems
Dazed and confused as the world keeps revolvin'

I'm halfway drunk, need to down a few more
'Cause with a sober mind can't settle the score
The stress is addin' up, don't even calculate the sum
Doin' whatever it takes to feel numb
I'm halfway drunk, need to down a few more
'Cause with a sober mind can't settle the score
The stress is addin' up, don't even calculate the sum
Doin' whatever it takes to feel numb

I tried to call her phone but yo, she wouldn't answer
Guess she probably thinks that Mic's evil like cancer
Misunderstood but it's all good
When I'm drowned in alcohol, don't think like I should
At the corner of my eye, saw some enemies that I knew
Thought I could take 'em but they had the whole crew
Confrontation, as it led up to some chasin'
Caught up once again in a shitty situation
But yo, gotta fade that out as I keep steppin'
Seems like every move I make puts me in the wrong section
Don't kill the buzz, take another shot
Stay intoxicated 'cause that's all I got
In a world that's too heavy and where trust could be deadly
Things they stay messy, nothin' could ever impress me
I keep the pace slow as I pack the pipe
Try to reach a new height with the correct insight
Negative thoughts, they need to be eliminated
'Cause too many things got me down and frustrated
So take some time out, so we could get faded
'Cause right about now you can't relate, kid

I'm halfway drunk, need to down a few more
'Cause with a sober mind can't settle the score
The stress is addin' up, don't even calculate the sum
Doin' whatever it takes to feel numb
I'm halfway drunk, need to down a few more
'Cause with a sober mind can't settle the score
The stress is addin' up, don't even calculate the sum
Doin' whatever it takes to feel numb

A couple more shots as I start to feel tipsy
I'm a thin motherf*cker, alcohol's quick to get me
Feel the head rush, stay lit from the erbal
Need to light a cigarette so I could complete the circle
Standard procedure if you need to be relaxin'
Shit, I'm pretty broke, thinkin' of ways to cash in
But right now I'm too out to remember
It's the M.I.C. and was born in September
Lotta pretenders and wannabes in the center
So take a huge puff before you enter
I never meant to lose my mind but it's too late to fix it
We all gettin' old, addin' up to the digits
Still it's all the same with the formula and recipe
Lotta motherf*ckers still try and keep testin' me
But I got the potion and the proper disposition
Still I'm on a mission to get the crowd to listen
Soundcheck, make sure you hear me through your speaker
24/7 I'm paranoid off the reefer
Yeah, one two, one two
Where the f*ck's my crew, with or without, I could do

I'm halfway drunk, need to down a few more
'Cause with a sober mind can't settle the score
The stress is addin' up, don't even calculate the sum
Doin' whatever it takes to feel numb
I'm halfway drunk, need to down a few more
'Cause with a sober mind can't settle the score
The stress is addin' up, don't even calculate the sum
Doin' whatever it takes to feel numb

Alcohol down my throat 'cause the stress always persisted
Alcohol down my throat 'cause the stress always persisted
Alcohol down my throat 'cause the stress always persisted
Alcohol down my throat 'cause the stress always persisted
