1
Now I lay me down to sleep
2
That was then, but this is now
3
I pray the lord my soul to keep
4
I let you slip away somehow
5
If I should die before I wake
6
If I should die my pain shall stay
7
I pray the lord my soul to take
8
I made you what you are today
9
Now as I look at myself I'm seein' someone familiar
10
Starin' back at me through every deep crack that's in my mirror
11
And as I think to myself
12
I'm hearin somebody else scream at me (shhh....)
13
I no longer hear from
14
Could it be the unknown
15
Sneaking into my zone
16
Off we roam
17
My spirituals is not alone
18
I'm visualizing this invisible clone
19
It's my own
20
And it's own
21
Rest assured it's my dome
22
Maybe I need to go to bed
23
Could have sworn I just heard that voice up in my head
24
Nots while I raps
25
When it hits me (ha ha ha ha....)
26
But now it's laughin at me
27
Yo, what the hell is happenin?
28
Please somebody slap me
29
No way, not another physical display
30
Somethin' must got me backin' up from way back in the day
31
But what can it be
32
I can't recall the memories so if I may ask...
33
I just seen you yesterday
34
It's my fuckin' past
35
I just seen you yesterday
36
It's my fuckin' past
37
I just seen you yesterday
38
It's my fuckin' past
39
I just seen you yesterday
40
It's my fuckin' past
41
I just seen you yesterday
42
It's my fuckin' past
43
I just seen you yesterday
44
It's my fuckin' past
45
I just seen you yesterday
46
It's my fuckin' past
47
I just seen you yesterday
48
By any means was all it ever seemed to be
49
This reminiscin' with my past has got me
50
Caught up in a daydream
51
Stay in bed with niggas who can pay the rent
52
Spending my green on panty hose and tight jeans
53
I used to be so amused
54
Cuz the tools that I used to break rules
55
Only seemed to confuse as to whose bein' abused
56
Place yourself in my shoes
57
My blessed look of innocence was never refused
58
Now that I choose to abide
59
Hello Left Eye
60
And put my past to the side
61
I don't guess I...
62
And kill a piece of my pride
63
...Need to introduce myself
64
You already said hi
65
Oh, so you're the match that lights my fuse
66
I'm used
67
Huh, I thought I left you on on that cruise
68
You lose it
69
Your man took
70
My place when he threw me in your face
71
So we drank up all the booze
72
Sing the blues
73
And yo, we end up on the news
74
Sing the blues
75
We end up on the news
76
Sing the blues
77
We end up on the news
78
Sing the blues
79
I said we end up on the news
80
Sing the blues
81
We end up on the news
82
Sing the blues
83
And yo we end up on the news
84
Sing the blues
85
We end up on the news
86
Sing the blues
87
We end up on the news

Gotta get away from the past
97
If I make it I just might last
98
Gotta get away from the past
99
Tryna escape it but it's movin' too fast
100
Gotta get away from the past
101
If I make it I just might last
102
Gotta get away from the past
103
Tryna escape it but it's movin' too fast.
104
We was walkin' before most babies could crawl
105
Yes yes y'all
106
Above all one foot tall
107
Ain't no way I'm takin' a down fall
108
I'm restructurin' walls
109
Interruptin' your calls
110
And goin' straight to the source
111
With this nut in my balls
112
Every time the blind lead the blind
113
Another one of my kind's outta sight and outta mind
114
I'm comin' through the press
115
With this sense you can't mess
116
I'm sittin' in your dreams
117
Go ahead, take a rest
118
I'm poppin' off your nigga's chest
119
Should I be in distress?
120
And niggas poppin' on the scene
121
And they can get these
122
That's my bitch
123
I'm his bitch
124
What the hell do they know?
125
Is that so?
126
They say they case scenario
127
And I could care less
128
About your people and their relentlessness
129
Towards the eye
130
Say good-bye
131
And tell his moms to stop cryin'
132
Go tell his moms to stop cryin'
133
His moms to stop cryin'
134
Go tell his moms to stop cryin'

137
It's been raining cats and dogs here in Atlanta for the 44th day
138
And in national sports today, André Rison of the Atlanta Falcons
139
Is regarded as America's sports hero
140
By doing what many Americans have only dreamed of
141
This historic event of removing Deion Sander's tooth
142
with a double combination hit to the mouth during
143
Sunday night's football game brought tears of joy
144
to many American's eyes...
