|
| What’s the use in the truth
|
| If you can’t tell a lie?
|
| Damn, I overslept again?
|
| Gotta get this clock rewired
|
| Third time this week and I’m guaranteed to be fired
|
| My boss thinks I’m a liar
|
| All my excuses expired
|
| But the stories I come up with
|
| He got to admire
|
| The bus caught a flat tire?
|
| That’s for rookies and dingbats
|
| I convinced him daylight savings was fall forward and sprang back
|
| Maybe I could make him think that—
|
| I had a dream that I was at work already
|
| Nahhh, he’d never believe that
|
| Man, I’m always ahead of my time
|
| You callin my mom a liar? |
| Wait
|
| Look at the time
|
| Let me tell you what transpired
|
| To the office, I’m on my way again
|
| Early as usual
|
| Got abducted by aliens
|
| With some girl that was beautiful
|
| I screamed ‘Don't make me late for work
|
| They sayin' I got to stay
|
| For a long enough period for me a shorty to copulate
|
| C’mon, what would you do?
|
| Of course you’d hit it fam
|
| But now I’m three hours late
|
| Cause, I ain’t no minute man
|
| Why are you late again?
|
| Let me explain
|
| Do you think this is a joke?
|
| Nah, I can explain
|
| I should fire you right now
|
| No, check it out, let me explain!
|
| Excuses, excuses, excuses
|
| Every day it’s something new
|
| Yo, let me explain
|
| You must not like your job
|
| Nah, let me explain
|
| I’m not gonna warn you anymore
|
| Yo, check it out, I can explain!
|
| Excuses, excuses, excuses
|
| My bad love (here we go)
|
| I got hit by the 7 bus (Uh-huh)
|
| Plus I got stuck behind eleven trucks (Ooh)
|
| Oh, I said those before (Yep!)
|
| Well, really it’s Pack’s fault
|
| Had to hit the hospital
|
| We cracked his head on the asphalt
|
| Be easy girl (Whatever)
|
| You don’t need to smack a star
|
| There’s plenty of ways to be in traffic when you don’t even have a car
|
| C’mon, stop actin' sour
|
| I brought you some flowers
|
| I won’t be late again
|
| At least not — more than 2 hours
|
| Holla
|
| Baby, I know I’m late
|
| But check it out, I can explain
|
| I had to rescue a baby from under a train
|
| He needed surgery, I had to operate on his brain
|
| Then I went and got your umbrella, I thought it would rain
|
| I know it’s insane, you probably think I’m makin' this up
|
| But I got the number of the lady who was drivin' the bus
|
| (Was it a bus or a train? Pack you lied to me! How dare you?!)
|
| Oh, I’m sorry baby, but, um, hey! |
| Is that a new hairdo?
|
| Yo, give me a lift to the airport
|
| I got somewhere to be right now
|
| Hey man, can you help me move?
|
| I got somewhere to be right now
|
| But this is your baby!
|
| I got somewhere to be right now
|
| Excuses, excuses, excuses
|
| Yo, let’s go hit up the show
|
| I got somewhere to be right now
|
| Would you like to take a survey?
|
| I got somewhere to be right now
|
| Yo man, you got my dough?
|
| I got somewhere to be right now
|
| Excuses, excuses, excuses
|
| Damn Ike, you late again?
|
| I shoulda known not to trust ya
|
| For someone ahead of their time
|
| You be late like a mothafucka!
|
| I know you ain’t talk
|
| He always leave me waitin' for minutes
|
| What can I say fam?
|
| I need a motivation to spit this
|
| Yeah that’s funny, yo
|
| I get it
|
| But whatever the case
|
| A second later, Words and Mecca woulda been takin' your place
|
| I got 8 bars ready!
|
| Son, I was comin' with the chorus
|
| Wait — Mecca raps?
|
| Words knows what a metaphor is?
|
| Pack, you wylin' out
|
| Hold tight, be there in a second
|
| Don’t dead me cause you scared I’ll outshine you on your record
|
| All I’m sayin is do you kid
|
| But be swift with your movement
|
| How you gonna outshine me, cause
|
| Usin' celly with excuses
|
| Whatever man, I’m here now
|
| Be up in a sec
|
| Shit my notebook’s in the cab, man
|
| And that nigga just left
|
| Hold up, let me get this straight
|
| You hours and seconds late
|
| Beggin me not to be replaced
|
| Now you all up in my face
|
| Sayin your rap sheet is in the backseat — of a taxi?
|
| But when the check is late, you won’t hesitate to ask me
|
| I told you bout this last week, your excuses are useless
|
| At least have the decency to tell me what the truth is!
|
| All the time in the booth is just costin' me dough
|
| That’s no excuse Pack, cause we tapin' at Tone’s
|
| You know I’m your ace in the hole
|
| When it comes to blazin' a poem
|
| I’ll rip it straight from the dome
|
| So get prepared to drop the heat
|
| Damn I wish I got some sleep
|
| Tone, you ready to rock this beat?
|
| Nah we can’t
|
| Why Tone?
|
| Cause Pack forgot the beat
|
| Yo man — you forgot it
|
| Whatchu lookin' at me for? |
| Shit. |
