[Intro: Fatlip]
You know you know, you know
You know, you know know know
You know, you know you know
Yo

At the tone, please record your message
[Verse 1]
Depressed, stressed, messed up in the head
Fed up, upset, broke and in debt
Smoking cigarettes, sippin on the fifth
Mixing subsantces, fixing and sniff
To get a lift, cause i feel down
Wearing a frown like a sad faced clown
Crown me the king of pain
Wondering around, pondering profound thoughts in the rain
About to get a migraine, began to explain to a stranger
What was going on in my brain
He took a listen, looked me in the eye and said
Bitch n***a can't you see i'm paralyzed?
From the neck down to my thighs
You got it lucky little sucka, best to recognize
What he said stayed in my head all night long
Next morning got up out of bed and wrote this song
[Chorus](x2)
Looking at my life and what i've been through
He begins to realize, its cool compared to
Worst case scenario, Worst case scenario
[Verse 2]
My uncle went to war in Korea for matters that didn't concern him
Saw friends lose limbs, lose lives, lose wives
He got grim memories because he survived
Now focus your eyes on real ordeals
And feel fortunate if you ain't caught up in some horrible shit
Sit back contemplate the fate of a state penitentiary inmate
Waitin' on the day to be executed
Even though they know he did not do it
People going through it all over the planet
And most of us tend to take things for granted
Like food, clothing, shelter, health, the ability to provide for yourself
Life, freedom, family, love, cause some folks don't got none of the above
[Chorus](x2)
Looking at my life and what i've been through
He begins to realize, its cool compared to
Worst case scenario, Worst case scenario
[Verse 3]
Young boy wanna speak up on death when he rapping
But thats a different thing when that shit really happen
What u know about, gettin stretched out
Body sketched out and chalked on the sidewalk
You talking that stuff like your neck is rough
One second of realness, you had enough
Cream puffs perpetuate like life ain't great
Elaborate, embellish, and hella exaggerate
You fake like a weave, cause you make believe
A fraudulent persona you attempt to achieve
Deceive the mind of the dumb, deaf, blind
In fact, it's a a step-back for all mankind(mankind, mankind.....)
[Voice]
If you are satisfied with your message press 1
[Chorus]
Looking at my life and what i've been through
He begins to realize, its cool compared to
Worst case scenario, Worst case scenario
