Shaft - Asleep at the Wheel Lyrics

I gave you real life and you skipped the track
I gave you lies and you paid me back
Guess nineteens to old for the youth
Sit back with hate but grin swallow truth
Wrote away wrote away a piece of mind
You walked up and said I wasted time
Gave ignorance no where to hide
You gave you gave me penny nickle quarter dime
I'm asleep at the wheel I ain't pop no pills
Time to show off all dat skill
Go in for the kill
Asleep at the wheel please someone save me
I don't want to make anyone else angry

Nineteens years of age asleep at the wheel
Hate over love could grant me a mill
Stupid for thinking the world would hold still
Understanding now that time is to real
Ignorance alone is my own demon
Maybe it's rhyme over reason
Hate to admit this but my spirits been bleedin
Maybe recognition is what I've been needin
Best they never heard better hand me a noose
But with a gun I could let my mind loose
Hurts to say that it could be the truth
Thirst hard to quench when your all out of juice
Ignorance crept up as quiet as a mouse
No way to back out
Already blacked out
Minds been a mad house
Money and greed though that has remained my spouse
Uh you look at this world and it's all full of lies
Yes I do hide behind all of these lines
Somebody please help me go find my spine
Maybe I'm another one of god punchlines
I miss my best friend Micheal
Seems like I'm my very own rival
The other day on my phone I went to dial
What's the use if you're stuck in denial
I just went to far on my own account
Was religion really renounced
Maybe it's the grief that made him act out
One more stop away from going to check out

How many times am I gonna let you lie to me
Gonna let you lie to me
How many times am I gonna let you lie to me
Acting like I ain't been the one in the drivers seat
If we die then we die why do you care
Did my time waiting now see this is fair
If you played along life would have been shared
The only reason you're here now is because of my dare
Ha see
You took that for granted
Enough fire in the eyes to burn down the planet
Sacrifices were made you were my gambit
Put myself first it's a horrible habit
Grew up a bastard
Now I own my masters
You see the songs up if you passin
I'm blastin
Hell if I don't make it I do it all by harassin
Do all the work now so my future be relaxin
If your man can't rap stop with the gassin
No love for the grind I ain't ever show compassion
Life is a movie I can't read the script
It's like hieroglyphs
How you bleedin you crip
Forget Shaft N Friends
I'm back for revenge
Diss then you die no use for amends
For this life I'd go to my wits end
Stuck with my name the only thing to defend
