Cold

He walks out, takes his last bag
Right before he flicks his cigarette, takes his last drag
Takes his last puff
He swore he had enough
He's overwhelmed with disgust
It's hard when someone that you trust
They betray you, so here's a dilemma
He's married to his high school sweetheart Emma
Instead of going to college, they went and had a kid
Said he gonna make it if it was the last thing that he did
The stench of failure, smells the aroma
It's hard to get a job when you barely got a diploma
Your baby keep crying
So you keep denying
That your girl think you a failure, get suspicious like she lying
So one day, he came home
And he walked in and he heard her moan
He ran up to the bedroom and he came to finally see
His girl was cheating with a guy
Who's laying where he should be, be, be

Wish that I knew what I was in for (in for)
Somebody get me some info (info)
All I see is rain through this window (window)
And now I'm feeling cold like when the wind blow

So, truth be told, all these burdens that I hold
In this life, they got me feeling cold (cold)
Truth be told, all these burdens that I hold
In this life, they got me feeling cold (cold)

She got one hand on a knife, the other hand on a bottle
Mind of a physicist, body of a model
She been in the fast lane, been going full throttle
I know they say the truth is hard to swallow
So instead of that, she swallowed these pills
And she swallowed this 'tron
Talking to him, I won't tell her that she wanna come home
'Cause that small town, moving to the big lights
Everything she ever done, well, she did right
Wanna do it big, right, wanna be a actress
But the fact is, can't get a role unless you roll up on a mattress
So she plays the game, starts sleeping around
Her friends tryna call her but she's nowhere to be found
'Cause one day, she came home
And she realized, she's on her own
So she just said "Fuck it"
They found her where she fell
With a note that says "I'm looking for heaven 'cause I don't wanna live in hell"

Wish that I knew what I was in for (in for)
Somebody get me some info (info)
All I see is rain through this window (window)
And now I'm feeling cold like when the wind blow

So, truth be told, all these burdens that I hold
In this life, they got me feeling cold (cold)
Truth be told, all these burdens that I hold
In this life, they got me feeling cold (cold)

What happens to a dream that's deferred?
I wanna make this money, the cream is preferred
My girl been lookin' at me like "Your dream is absurd
I know you good, baby, I've seen and I've heard, but...
Well this rap-ening really just isn't happening
When the bills are stacking then, promise that I'll be packing then
I won't be back again, make me sick to my abdomen
You don't got a back up so now it's like you have to win"
I said "I know, you're bringing me the tears
These years, now I realize that I'm behind all my peers
Almost worked myself to death
The shit that I've been through
I thought you knew that everything I do, I do this shit for you"
She said "One day, you'll come home
And you will realize you're all alone
And that's when you will see
There's no one left to save you, not even me" (me, me)

Wish that I knew what I was in for (in for)
Somebody get me some info (info)
All I see is rain through this window (window)
And now I'm feeling cold like when the wind blow

So, truth be told, all these burdens that I hold
In this life, they got me feeling cold (cold)
Truth be told, all these burdens that I hold
In this life, they got me feeling cold (cold)

Truth be told, all these burdens that I hold
In this life, they got me feeling cold
Truth be told, all these burdens that I hold
In this life, they got me feeling cold
