World's An Addiction |
| Lies and the pain |
| Betrayal, life |
| In danger’s face |
| Look what you’re facing, gave your heart away |
| And all the remedies couldn’t ease the pain |
| All the hurt and betrayal; |
| need to get away |
| In a world so cold |
| You gain your life just to lose your soul |
| Never thinking twice bout what the future holds |
| All the lies and the games not worth fighting for |
| The world is an addiction |
| Serving up a fix |
| The world is an addiction |
| It’s way too much for me |
| Uhh, snitches and rapists in the street, crime to the fullest |
| Asking niggas if they got any extra nine bullets |
| They deny me that, they know the bullets they loan me |
| Be the same ones that probably had them lying flat |
| Stretched out, letter T, |
| it’s better to dead a beef |
| Than let it breathe, then we don’t succeed |
| Cause then you gotta murder dummies |
| Waste your time, they allergic to money |
| I’m never squirmish to blood |
| We can thug and get out of hand; |
| what’s the options? |
| Only conclusion is shooting, bullets popping, hoodlums dropping |
| Fear any day that the Feds will come knocking |
| Was young and nervous, asking myself what’s my purpose? |
| In the back of a paddy wagon, bracelets aching me |
| Pigs ignoring, I’m asking what precinct they taking me |
| These cops can’t relate to me, death to prison, empty vacancy |
| The world is an addiction |
| Serving up a fix |
| The world is an addiction |
| It’s way too much for me |
| Thou shall not be selfish, real nigga commandments |
| Know a billionaire, he has everything but a fam |
| Guess how angry this man gets |
| Had so many bad chicks in his bed, strange sex, same sex |
| Has addictions that are sadistic, chain of events, habits |
| He puts cocaine on his prick and acts sick |
| Self-esteem needs boosting, alcohol consumption |
| Nicotine fusion, some athletes juicing |
| Pastors quote biblical chapters, Psalms |
| All along he’s into bestiality porn |
| And it’s wrong, so I keep the Cali weed in the bong |
| And I’m strong but the female anatomy got me sprung |
| And these women need shoes and baddest cars and condos |
| Fine clothes and these fiends needs to get high |
| So they find dough to mainline dope, and y’all know |
| The world is an addiction |
| Serving up a fix |
| The world is an addiction |
| It’s way too much for me |
| So many vices, habits, mine of course, bad chicks |
| My response to any advice on what is the essentials of life |
| I’m just rebellious, not selfish |
| Guess we all share different definitions of what wealth is |
| I need the best things in life, that’s women, that’s cars, cigars |
| A vintage bottle on ice that’s priceless |
| The other night, just in the emergency room |
| A patient said she needs to see a doctor soon |
| Doctor busy operating on a lady who’s sedated |
| He can barely concentrate cause he’s newly separated |
| His estranged wife likes entertaining her acquaintance |
| In the house they were married in, mad people waiting |
| Some young some old, heads and stomachs aching |
| Filling out an application cause they all need medication |
| But the doctor need love or a quick vacation |
| Calling up his travel agent, same time, premeditating |
| Murdering his ex wife; |
| life, savage ain’t it |
| Some need Xanax just to maintain it |
| We all need faith cause the world keep changing |
| Let go of the illusion, start some restraining |
| Oooooooooooh-ahhhhhhhhh… |
| Ahhhhhhhh-ahhhhhh-ahhhhhh…ahhh. |
| Just hold on (just hold on) |
| Just hold on (just hold on) |
| Just hold on (just hold on) |
| Just hold on (just hold on) |
| Just hold on (just hold on) |
| Just hold on (just hold on) |
| Just hold on (just hold on) |
| Just hold on (… hold on) |
