Taking Losses
Took some losses, shit's hard
When everyone seems to succeed but you got nothing to bargain
Now I'm starting from nothing
Because of narcotics consumption
Lost bunches of friends and it's been years since I talked to my cousins
Smoked blunts with the druggies
Hallucinated off the pot I been puffin
Tried talking to God but God didn't bother
Got my apartment plundered
Laptop including all the new songs people robbed it
Grand larceny charges
But no results from insurance
Things ain't going right
Bad days, sad nights
I used to have dreams too damn right
Tried to forget my mistakes
But there comes a point when every man breaks
So many bad days, sad nights
I used to have dreams too damn right
But so many things have gone wrong
I've been sick of this shit for so long
I've been taking so many losses in this life
Got lost in the drugs to feel alive
Stolen music had me deep in my feelings
Before that I hung out with people that's seedy
Gave a place to sleep to the needy
Cause I know how it feels to be cast out by society
Made some fake friends who stepped out, said goodbye to me
Soon as shit hit the fan they were gone, this is straight out my diary
Even some Christians turned their back soon as that occurred
Sometimes music is the only things that can catapult us into a better world
This world is getting cold
I believe there's a place in heaven where we move on paths of gold
Where we're never old
Where we can be cool forever yo
Please Lord help me pay all my bills
Help me find time to lay and just chill
I should really talk to the alcis in my neighborhood
But sometimes I rather take a good
Sip of that bottle with them or I wait and look
We're tempted to flee
From heaven's ideas
Pain and stress has us shedding some tears
I've been thru it as well, I know what its like even if you never tell me
Things ain't going right
Bad days, sad nights
I used to have dreams too damn right
Tried to forget my mistakes
But there comes a point when every man breaks
So many bad days, sad nights
I used to have dreams too damn right
But so many things have gone wrong
I've been sick of this shit for so long
I've been taking so many losses in this life
Got lost in the drugs to feel alive
Glad they came with a vaccine, I used to wash everything that I bought
Got tired of beer cans tastin more like soap
In the last two years so many folks stood
Alone, isolation turned me even more into a lone wolf
I could probably delete half the contacts in my phone book
Had to find myself, but lost my mind in the process
Negative influences, a toxic routine, like a grimy old faucet
Had puppet strings all around me
The devil fooled me, the weed changed me, the people clowned me
I got manipulated so much I started to like it
Capitalism said I needed nice things so I started to buy shit
It's not just the Hip Hop culture
That's a reflection of what's in our culture
We need good friends that point out when things ain't goin right
Instead of yes-men that only show up to be smokin dro at night
The Bible says fight temptation, I lost most my fights
A book that says everything we do is wrong can't always be right
More than once I was willing to forfeit my life
To be closer to Christ
But for some reason I'm still breathin
And I wanna make the best out of this here before I'm leavin
Things ain't going right
Bad days, sad nights
I used to have dreams too damn right
Tried to forget my mistakes
But there comes a point when every man breaks
So many bad days, sad nights
I used to have dreams too damn right
But so many things have gone wrong
I've been sick of this shit for so long
I've been taking so many losses in this life
Got lost in the drugs to feel alive
Things ain't going right
Bad days, sad nights
Things ain't going right
Bad days, sad nights
Things ain't going right
Bad days, sad nights
Bad days, sad nights
So many things have gone wrong
I've been sick of this shit for so long
Things ain't going right
Things ain't going right
Things ain't going right
Taking so many losses in this life
Things ain't going right
Things ain't going right
They just ain't going right
They just ain't going right
