I woke in a dark room
Hotter than the sun in Khartoum
Thoughts gushing out a sharp wound
Real life versus cartoons, high noon
Attitude rougher than a bar room
Monsoon send you to the wrong doom
What you mean though?
Different kind of lingo
On the scene low, f*cking up your jingle
Can't tell me cause you weren't there
Never seen a crosshair
Work my nerves bare preparing for warfare
Breathe in worse air, no one said life was fair
F*ck your arm chair
Approach me with the wrong stare, greet you with a muzzle flare
Beware
I gave you fair warning
Fat dab when I wake up in the morning
Looking like a rockstar touring
Tryna keep my life boring
I'm on edge & the meds don't work
Bum knee, my brother OD'd off percs
In the shadow where the needle lurks, a nation of people cursed
I keep to myself, big Buck knife in my belt
Happy to release you from hell
I'll be ready when they ring my bell
Got a sister down in New Rochelle, haven't spoken since the news came out
Assume she's well, probably sipping on a Zinfandel
I'm drinking battery acid, one combat boot in the casket
Molotov with the match lit, an inglorious bastard
How the f*ck did this happen?
I remember when we jumped the tracks
Ain't no way we're ever going back
It's a struggle to adjust to that
Deconstructed facts lead to lab rats
I'm a student of a different class
Underworld aristocrat, Christian past
Deadly as a diplomat, do the math
Avoid the crash
I couldn't tell what the NASDAQ's at
I mapped my world, then I mastered that
Now the system wanna lay me flat
Different game, got a different tax
These vultures get the last laugh
