What's this song about?
Generate meaning
1
Yo, we obviously need to tone it down a bit
2
Running round town spending time like it's counterfeit
3
Everybody catching hay fever like sinuses
4
Step in my arena let me show y'all who the highness is
5
You might say I could be doing something positive
6
Humble head down low and broke like promises
7
Soaking and broken in a joke like comics is
8
Not enough paper to be paying folks compliments
9
But when that paper got low so did my tolerance
10
And it ain't no truth in a dare without the consequence
11
Listen if it not for these hood inventions
12
I'd just be another kid from the block with no intentions
13
On the dock of that bay serving a life sentence
14
Even if I'm going to hell I'm gonna make an entrance
15
Yeah let em know I'm getting cheese like omelets is
16
But I'm the toast of the town like Thomas'
17
We're all on a journey
18
Down the hall of memories
19
Don't worry bout what you ain't got
20
Leave with a little bit of dignity
21
Never loved what I had
22
Always felt like I deserved more
23
But when I
24
Make it to the other side
25
Make it to the other side
26
That's when we'll settle up the score
27
Yo, we did this in remembrance of
28
Faces from the past we no longer have an image of
29
Carrying cold blood hearts that never been for love
30
Brothers keep going for theirs but never get enough
31
World travelers that seen it all and did enough
32
Only to return to learn the world wasn't big enough
33
Damn, how long has it been? I guess the jig is up
34
Now all I know is I'm about to wake this nigga up
35
Yeah that hindsight, 20/20, now niggas dead on the money
36
Trying to take something from me it's a wrap like a mummy
37
Undun I am becoming and when he's tired of running
38
Through the layers of the onion
39
He'll probably shed a tear cause they'll be no more fast times
40
Just his weak mind scrolled out like a bad sign
41
He never had enough and got confused when they asked why
42
Life is only a moment in time and it passed by
43
We're all on a journey
44
Down the hall of memories
45
Don't worry bout what you ain't got
46
Leave with a little bit of dignity
47
Never loved what I had
48
Always felt like I deserved more
49
But when I
50
Make it to the other side
51
Make it to the other side
52
That's when we'll settle up the score
53
I'm sitting on top of the world ready to jump off
54
Thinking of various ways to breaking the law
55
Thinking that enough is enough but still I want more
56
Thinking of how I'm playing with fire that burned my young boy
57
By any means necessary, don't give a damn
58
So every night I'm on a flight that never lands
59
Be an asshole when the shit hits the fan
60
Or bet your life on a bluff and a bad hand
61
Can't win, can't lose
62
Get 'em gassed, leave 'em leaking fuel
63
Either way the market moves
64
Cash rules kings, queens, prince and princess
65
Every night I'm crossing a line that ain't the finish
66
Every thought is dark as a glass of fucking Guinness
67
Too far gone to come back to my senses
68
Now I'm on the edge of my bed making love to my meds
69
Every moment's like a pistol to my head
70
When I'm getting mine
71
We're all on a journey
72
Down the hall of memories
73
Don't worry bout what you ain't got
74
Leave with a little bit of dignity
75
Never loved what I had
76
Always felt like I deserved more
77
But when I
78
Make it to the other side
79
Make it to the other side
80
That's when we'll settle up the score
