| Am I wasting time?
|
| Am I checking in, to trade this life?
|
| Am I really headed for dark days?
|
| The devil in your face don’t lie
|
| All you do is prey on my pride
|
| Maybe they just gas me up
|
| I can’t read between the lines
|
| Cause the game’s like a jail it’s a lockdown
|
| I get lost in the word, I’ve been locked out
|
| But my brother and my sister got my back now
|
| And my mother and my father pull me back out
|
| On and on and on
|
| Man you know they knock me down knock me down
|
| On and on and on
|
| Get up and they knock me down knock me down
|
| All this shade is a disguise, I can’t see right through their eyes
|
| On and on and on
|
| Get up and they knock me down
|
| Oh, oh
|
| I got my mind inside this wire still
|
| My mom she tells me if I slip
|
| Just don’t go downhill
|
| Like when I got the deal
|
| My advance was fatter than rappers'
|
| Stacks out when they mock a phone
|
| Only thought about big dollars
|
| Thick wallets, diamonds, got lots of clothes
|
| Yeah I had the force
|
| I would just floss, nobody telling me off
|
| Mom and dad they got divorced
|
| I didn’t want it to be like before
|
| That’s what pride is, that’s how lions think
|
| Now I’m lying sick, trying to just get through my daze
|
| But everybody is a monster
|
| Cause the game’s like a jail it’s a lockdown
|
| I get lost in the word, I’ve been locked out
|
| But my brother and my sister got my back now
|
| And my mother and my father pull me back out
|
| On and on and on
|
| Man you know they knock me down knock me down
|
| On and on and on
|
| Get up and they knock me down knock me down
|
| All this shade is a disguise, I can’t see right through their eyes
|
| On and on and on
|
| Get up and they knock me down
|
| Oh, oh
|
| I’m lost in the shadows, falling from grace
|
| And they left me in the dark out here
|
| The strain is gone, though I ask myself
|
| Am I really headed for dark days?
|
| (No I won’t be headed for dark days)
|
| On and on and on
|
| Man you know they knock me down knock me down
|
| On and on and on
|
| Get up and they knock me down knock me down
|
| All this shade is a disguise, I can’t see right through their eyes
|
| On and on and on
|
| Get up and they knock me down
|
| Oh, oh |
