It's official man I obviously lost it
Walk with a cane in the smoke through the darkness
I'm going for it I don't care what the cost is
Everybody can be givin' me the eye when I walk in

Not him he's a different dude
Who put it all on the line wasn't given a clue
Been in the mood so simply I rip 'em in two
And for the dudes' cold sweats while I'm sippin' a brew

I gotta climb higher on the wire till I'm [??]
See me up all night like let 'em in
Too much adrenaline I grew to an elephant
I choose to be better than these dudes who be feminine

Son sicker than swine a gin and rum
Givin' it time and now I'm finally getting in line
You better move buddy or get moved on quick
Imma zip up my hoodie on some New York shit
I'm out

Chorus (x2)
Times is rough and ain't nobody say shit
Ain't nobody give a fuck if you make it
We be getting so close I can taste it
Life's a bitch we always gotta take risk
I got a story and it needs to be told
I gotta monkey on my back that won't leave me alone
It always seems to happen when I'm deep in the zone
So these days I'm prone to fall asleep with the crome

I gotta start fresh cuz its nothing but a mess now
Can't eat cuz I'm taking in the stress now
My mama always used to tell me I'm a blessed child
But now I look her in the face and she's let down

I don't know what I can do to make it right again
Every bottle, every ounce is a vitamin
It's got me looking at the way things might have been
Can't cope, no hope, can't write again

Tell me what's the reason why I'm even still here
Every day is like a torture when you feel fear
Where I'm from, it ain't a joke, you get killed here
You either end up in a hearse or a wheelchair

Chorus (x2)
Times is rough and ain't nobody say shit
Ain't nobody give a fuck if you make it
We be getting so close I can taste it
Life's a bitch we always gotta take risk
