[00:00.908][Verse 1: Black Thought]
[00:21.982]Yeah, sitting in the staircase, holding back tears
[00:25.781]Looking over mad years worth of photographs
[00:28.282]Pictures of some places I ain't never going back
[00:30.809]Some people I used to love, why I ain't show 'em that?
[00:33.573]The skies was overcast, when I was sober last
[00:36.605]My head is spinning, couldn't tell you if it's slow or fast
[00:39.360]It's starting to get too clear, I got to go and grab
[00:42.132]To y'all it's a shame but life is what we know it as
[00:44.897]Waiting, navigating the plot, without plans
[00:47.405]In the cards, it's hard to read as a clock with no hands
[00:50.179]How your mans gonna get up his stock with no yams
[00:52.941]All it take is one break, it could pop the program
[00:55.768]Whether sinning or not, my back bending like I'm sendin' salaat
[00:59.107]I feel some brothers is beginning to plot
[01:01.392]It might have been a close friend I forgot
[01:03.403]Who started up and ain't remember to stop
[01:05.412]I bet these niggas gon' remember the shop
[01:05.713]
[01:07.210][Chorus: Mercedes Martinez]
[01:07.964]People think that I'm crazy, just cause I wanna be alone
[01:12.495]You can't depend on friends to help you in a squeeze
[01:15.762]We all deal with shit on our own
[01:18.273]And sometimes the beef can grow, get out of hand
[01:21.778]Yeah, you know it gets full blown
[01:23.786]I never said that you mean the world to me
[01:26.820]Maybe it's best that you never know
[01:28.349]
[01:29.130][Verse 2: Black Thought]
[01:29.632]Yo, I'm like Malcolm out the window with the weapon out
[01:32.669]Searching for somehow to find a minute or the second now
[01:35.484]Precious time is money that I ain't got to mess about
[01:38.256]Need it from the horse's mouth or from an eyewitness account
[01:41.276]Lessons with my back to the wall, scoping my session out
[01:44.035]Stay a little edgy at times when I ain't stressing 'bout
[01:46.804]Haters don't know shit about me, they the ones that talk shit
[01:49.581]Those that love me send it out, so I ain't got to force quit
[01:52.660]'Cause I'm doing better now, don't mean I never lost shit
[01:55.375]I was married to a state of mind and I divorced it, man
[01:58.382]I'm from where brothers moving product from the porches
[02:01.141]People locking their doors, clutching to their crosses
[02:03.651]The block hot by the law, there ain't too many choices
[02:06.413]So what I do is for y'all, there ain't too many voices left
[02:09.668]I watch my back and watch my step
[02:11.927]And I might forgive, but I do not forget, come on
[02:12.428]
[02:13.694][Chorus: Mercedes Martinez]
[02:15.454]People think that I'm crazy, just cause I wanna be alone
[02:20.217]You can't depend on friends to help you in a squeeze
[02:23.503]We all deal with shit on our own
[02:26.021]And sometimes the beef can grow, get out of hand
[02:29.276]Yeah, you know it gets full blown
[02:31.539]I never said that you mean the world to me
[02:34.549]Maybe it's best that you never know
[02:35.050]
[02:36.058][Verse 3: Black Thought]
[02:37.076]Yo, living in turbulent times, the blind leading the blind
[02:40.348]Some call it evolution, some say intelligent design
[02:43.110]You say you want a revolution, you out of your mizind
[02:45.869]Your sons' destitute and their pops all in the prison
[02:48.640]My man's back in the jam, he like the back of my hand
[02:51.407]He just attracted to scam, he right back in the can
[02:54.238]I never sleepwalk when you dead, you get your shuteye
[02:57.282]I'm on the first thing in, I'm leaving on the red-eye
[03:00.043]My brother back in rehab, just had another relapse
[03:02.802]Within himself, it's been like he's been fighting an inner Jihad
[03:05.562]Telling me ain't nobody true when they pretend to be that
[03:08.354]So closer than friends, that's where I keep my enemy at
[03:11.127]To any parties concerned, it's time to live it and learn
[03:14.183]Until we're able to grow, forever bridges will burn
[03:16.943]My thoughts free as a bird, that's just about to emerge
[03:19.702]And every action is heard, it speaks louder than words, yo
[03:20.473]
[03:21.979][Chorus: Mercedes Martinez]
[03:23.252]People think that I'm crazy, just cause I wanna be alone
[03:28.007]You can't depend on friends to help you in a squeeze
[03:31.015]We all deal with shit on our own
[03:33.530]And sometimes the beef can grow, get out of hand
[03:37.039]Yeah, you know it gets full blown
