Blacker than Blue

I don't know what happened to you
I don't know what happened to you
You can't hide the past or the truth
You can't hide the past or the truth
Nobody asked you to choose
Nobody asked you to choose
Your soul is blacker than blue
Your soul is blacker than blue

You got a light and a dark side
You try to keep 'em separated like apartheid
You're a smart guy, but you lived a hard life
Workin' part time, still can't pay the harsh price
They think you need to pay. The guilt just eats away
At your soul. You lose control tryin' to keep your faith
You took the easy way 'cause you're weak and vain
Eternal love, you turn to drugs just to ease the pain
You never know what the passion will do
You wanna sell your soul for some racks and a coupe
I noticed that your soul is tattered and bruised
But you gave into the darkness, so it's blacker than blue
Now I don't recognize who you are
I empathize 'cause it's hard
We knew it right from the start
And now it's time to depart

I don't know what happened to you
I don't know what happened to you
You can't hide the past or the truth
You can't hide the past or the truth
Nobody asked you to choose
Nobody asked you to choose
Your soul is blacker than blue
Your soul is blacker than blue

Thought we were cut from the same cloth
Turns out you're a fraud - Bernie Madoff
I was tryin' see my squad in the playoffs
But then my Migo thought he should Takeoff
I tried to Offset a great loss
Turns out I'm better off with the fakes gone
It's been two fuckin' years and we ain't talked
I'm really sick of hearin' the same song
You never see how your actions confuse
You have some tendencies that you have to improve
You think you're owed a lot 'cause the damage induced
I bet your soul will rot 'cause it's blacker than blue
You never tried to be strong
Should've severed ties all along
I know my right from my wrong
I know it's time to move on

I don't know what happened to you
I don't know what happened to you
You can't hide the past or the truth
You can't hide the past or the truth
Nobody asked you to choose
Nobody asked you to choose
Your soul is blacker than blue
Your soul is blacker than blue
