Yeah, It’s been a ride…I guess I had to go to that place to get to this oneNow some of you might still be in that placeIf you’re trying to get out, just follow meI’ll get you there
You can try and read my lyrics off of this paper before I lay ’emBut you won’t take this thing out these words before I say ’emCause ain’t no way I’m let you stop me from causing mayhemWhen I say ’em or do something I do it, I don’t give a damnWhat you think, I’m doing this for me, so fuck the worldFeed it beans, it’s gassed up, if a thing’s stopping meI’mma be what I set out to be, without a doubt undoubtedlyAnd all those who look down on me I’m tearing down your balconyNo if ands or buts don’t try to ask him why or how can heFrom Infinite down to the last Relapse album he’s still shit’nWhether he’s on salary, paid hourlyUntil he bows out or he shit’s his bowels out of himWhichever comes first, for better or worseHe’s married to the game, like a fuck you for ChristmasHis gift is a curse, forget the earth he’s got the urgeTo pull his dick from the dirt and fuck the whole universe
I’m not afraid to take a standEverybody come take my handWe’ll walk this road together, through the stormWhatever weather, cold or warmJust let you know that, you’re not aloneHolla if you feel that you’ve been down the same road
Ok quit playin’ with the scissors and shit, and cut the crapI shouldn’t have to rhyme these words in the rhythm for you to know it’s a rapYou said you was king, you lied through your teethFor that fuck your fillings, instead of getting crowned you’re getting cappedAnd to the fans, I’ll never let you down again, I’m backI promise to never go back on that promise, in factLet’s be honest, that last Relapse CD was “ehhhh”Perhaps I ran them accents into the ground
Relax, I ain’t going back to that nowAll I’m tryna say is get back, click-clack BLAOWCause I ain’t playin’ aroundThere’s a game called circle and I don’t know howI’m way too up to back downBut I think I’m still tryna figure this crap outThought I had it mapped out but I guess I didn’tThis fucking black cloud still follow’s me aroundBut it’s time to exorcise these demonsThese motherfuckers are doing jumping jacks now!
I’m not afraid to take a standEverybody come take my handWe’ll walk this road together, through the stormWhatever weather, cold or warmJust let you know that, you’re not aloneHolla if you feel that you’ve been down the same road
And I just can’t keep living this waySo starting today, I’m breaking out of this cageI’m standing up, Imma face my demonsI’m manning up, Imma hold my groundI’ve had enough, now I’m so fed upTime to put my life back together right now
It was my decision to get clean, I did it for meAdmittedly I probably did it subliminally for youSo I could come back a brand new me, you helped see me throughAnd don’t even realise what you did, believe me youI been through the ringer, but they can do little to the middle fingerI think I got a tear in my eye, I feel like the king ofMy world, haters can make like bees with no stingers, and drop deadNo more beef flingers, no more drama from now on, I promiseTo focus only on handling my responsibility’s as a fatherSo I solemnly swear to always treat this roof like my daughters and raise itYou couldn’t lift a single shingle on itCause the way I feel, I’m strong enough to go to the clubOr the corner pub and lift the whole liquor counter upCause I’m raising the bar, I shoot for the moonBut I’m too busy gazing at stars, I feel amazed and
I’m not afraid to take a standEverybody come take my handWe’ll walk this road together, through the stormWhatever weather, cold or warmJust let you know that, you’re not aloneHolla if you feel that you’ve been down the same road
