| From an outsider looking in
|
| Its like look at him another man that couldn’t win
|
| Another stand with a crooked grin
|
| On the other hand he blames the land that took him in
|
| A product of environment
|
| The book the pen they wonder where the fire went
|
| He shook the hands of the one he admires
|
| He’s hooked again
|
| In the club he acquires a small taste for loneliness
|
| He’s always saying how it’s only us
|
| He flys in with the three wise men
|
| He buys into the Jack, John, Jim
|
| This is where the Captain swims on a sinking ship
|
| He’s the only passenger and he ain’t thinking quick
|
| He drinks he sips he took it down
|
| He winks and tips his crooked crown
|
| Look it now He’s spoiled by the Royal one
|
| Coiled in the corner father guilt he the loyal son
|
| Waiting on his joy to come in the form of another pour
|
| Yo, pour me one
|
| Cus if he only knew
|
| How much he meant to you
|
| So many prayers that never got sent to you
|
| The Devil got him resenting you
|
| For all the things he did and never meant to do
|
| He’d have the nights over heaven
|
| More then half the time
|
| When life gave him lemons he grabbed a lime
|
| Is it his faults or the Gin’s the Malt on his chin
|
| The salt of the earth is now the salt on his rim
|
| It’s the call of the Jim to see the Beams of his ceiling
|
| If his walls were any thinner
|
| You could see he was kneeling
|
| On his bathroom tile but not in prayer
|
| Passed out by the smile that got him there
|
| Another bout in a self-doubt nightmare
|
| Got him in a glass house with this right hand
|
| Holding a Mic stand denying what his life is
|
| Hold him to the light and you’ll find he’s self-righteous
|
| Can you believe the one that won’t bleed
|
| Is asking you to cut yourself indeed
|
| Looking at the flower brother check the seed
|
| You shook by the power of a reckless greed
|
| A washed up hero enjoying his drink again
|
| Maybe in the morning he will think again
|
| Until then the only sunrise he know
|
| Gets mixed with an orange juice and Cuervo Gold
|
| Cus if he only knew
|
| How much he meant to you
|
| So many prayers that never got sent to you
|
| The Devil got him resenting you
|
| For all the things he didn’t and never meant to do |
