Sometimes I wish I were like you and I could party it up
Live for the moment, loosen up and just not give a fuck
But I’m grumpy and thus I am shunning the clubs
They’re for beautiful people and I’m ugly as fuck
A little nutty, uptight and not funny enough
Plus I get nothing from dry-humping the sluttiest cunts, nuh
I want a girl that’s lovely and smart
Is she among those fucking drunks? Ha, probably not
But it’s tough to see the ugliness behind all the make-up
Long eyelashes prettify the eyes of the snake
And it’s easier to turn a blind eye than awake
And then have to look at greatness realize that it’s fake
It’s even tougher though to truly see a beautiful mind
These days it’s hard to see the beauty in eyes
Cause we’re so used to abuse people, ruefully
I See the cruelty as we do speak the most beautiful lies
For sexual adventures we’re taking advantage
Not thinking for a second about the damage that we cause
We just move on to next one, neglect or forget them
Man if that is our standard, something’s definitely wrong
Yeah the serenade is dead, the education lacks
Thanks Hollywood, you sent us on some devastating tracks
Had us emulating actors, sold us images of love
When we woke up it was too late to shake the desolate effects
Go ahead, Robert Pattinson, tell me what love is
Shut the fuck up! Love is nothing but problems
Suffering hardships, coughing up blood
It’s kinda funny how it’s love that uncovers you’re heartless
Cause you’re getting fucked, and not the way you wanna
But by staring at the phone, waiting for a text that never comes
Bitch has a boyfriend!
She never told you so you call her, straight to voicemail
No response as the hours accumulate
Lights go on as the town illuminates
I should go home but I’m gonna stay out
I don’t wanna talk, I wanna get lost in the crowd
Plus if I would go home, I couldn’t sleep anyway
I’d lie in bed and ponder, down and blue
Cause every now and then I get a little bit lonely
And guess who’s never coming round, it’s you
Once upon a time I was falling in love
Yeah, now I’m only falling apart
That was a long time ago but I was head over toes
If would see her now I’d call her a slut
See I was hurt in fact, a nervous wreck
now I’m asserting that
I only been in love once, then I learned from that
I grew a shell no fuckin’ words can crack
I knew that hell could not be worse than that
That pain in your chest, when your heart got broken
So I guess it’s safe to say that my heart’s not open
Telling me to grow up? Go fuck yourself!
I know isolation, solitude and nothing else
Been at the same point for years and nothing’s improving
Guess I’m not as goddamn lucky as you and
I know it sounds awfully rough but it’s true that
For some of us love is just a fucking illusion
It’s not what we had been led to believe it was by daily soaps
And I get rabies from the songs they’re playing on the radio
Maybe though it’s true, only the unloved hate
Okay cool, then I assume my rage is understandable

Maybe I’m just a kid, hard-knocked and pissed
Cause I been lied to, look me in the eye, say karma exists
Say hard work pays off, it’s so fucking funny
So you get what you give, huh? That’s all shit!
See In this life you don’t get what you deserve
You don’t get what you want and even less what you’d have earned
Nuh, you get what you get and that’s that
I’m just trying to find a way to make it work
Yeah, I’m trying not to crack like the liberty bell
But every now and then this feels like I’m living in hell
Man, I’m shivering, this place that I’m living in is empty
My one room apartment’s like a prisoner’s cell
There’s this odd feeling in the pit of my stomach
My gut’s empty, still I think Imma vomit
I got about a thousand thoughts a minute and each one
Scares the shit out of me, I’m
Yeah I’m starting my mornings
By waking up way before my alarm goes off
And that said, I would rather not lose sleep
Yet I get, beggars cannot be choosy
Life’s a beautiful struggle, I think that’s true, see
It’s just that lately I’m struggling to see the beauty
Life’s a beautiful struggle, I think that’s true, see
It’s just that lately I’m struggling to see the beauty
My strength got tested again
Went from aggression back to sadness to aggression again
Yeah, I was battling depression again
Fell down, held out, was a mess of a man
But I never cared what the rest of ‘em said
None of the tears I ever cried made me less of a man
Nuh, the opposite is true, there’s no doubt in my mind
And if you beg to differ, tell me how many times
Did you fight back tears in front of your dad?
Did you reach out to peers and none of ‘em cared?
How many times did you put that fucking gun to your head?
Cause it’s gotten so bad, yeah it’s gotten so bad
Tell me how often do you have to get up and vomit
From the pain in your stomach? Nuh, answer me honestly
That’s what I thought, I see
My life going down the drain, just like the Spanish economy
Had to learn how kisses sting and love hurts
The truth will set you free but it’ll piss you off first
And I’m pissed like I never knew that I could be
Cause lately life is too true to be good, see
This world can be a sleazy fucking prison
And geez, it’s got me thinking
Why the fuck are times so hard?
Fuck, if only life was easy but it isn’t, it just isn’t
I got the strongest mind but it’s just heavily damaged
Like Anthony Pettis, when he lost his title
Sometimes I think I was built to crack, but
Somehow I still got the will to last
I know so many people who think that it’s tough, it is
But they don’t deal with half of the shit that I struggle with
They give up though when they’re hitting the bottom
They threw in the towel and now they drink till they wobble
But I’m too much of a man to be a bitch to the bottle
I’m too smart of a guy to think it fixes a problem
I get down, but every time I’m getting back up
And then life hits a little bit harder
I was built on this struggle, I have dealt with such pain
Shit, when the painkillers worked that was a hell of a day
And by god it was tough for me to bury my dreams
At the age of twenty-two when my body gave up on me
You talk about hell, man, fuck, I’ve been there
Half of my days consist of just hanging in there
Today might be the present but it’s not a gift
Cause life it isn’t easy, man, it’s hard as shit

Time And A Half

So I’m 25 now and still broke as fuck
Surviving mostly now on hope and luck
But I’m old enough to know it’s tough
And let’s be honest, man, I highly doubt that hope’s enough
I see people around me making thousands a month
While I make about a thousand a month
Man, I can’t get it right, you know damn well I’m trying
And all my friends are getting high while I’m down on my luck
Can pay the rent, except for that I ain’t got dough for shit
Those days, I really thought I got over it
No pity is needed but it's a shitty-ass feeling
When you work your ass off and have nothing to show for it
Your job sucks, your boss, well that guy is an ass
I want cash, bitch! Not time and a half
But what do you know? You don’t have a care in the world
The only thing life has taught me’s to prepare for the worst
You’re bumping 2 Chainz and 2 Pac, shit
I don’t make 2k with 2 jobs
I’m still broke counting pennies and cents
So you’re back on your grind, huh?
Well I’ve never been anywhere else
This is having leftovers of lunch for dinner
Wearing the same jacket every single goddamn winter
This’ a shitty feeling like the itch on your heels,
That you get from wearing out the pair of kicks on your feet
Every time you’re going out you buy booze for a hunny
Nice to see you can afford to be foolish with money
See I can’t, unlike you and your buddies
I simply can’t cause gotta buy food with that money
Say I’m always complaining and you call me a grouch
Bitch, my apartment is too motherfucking small for a couch
You don’t look that broke by the way you’re walking around
Man, what the fuck are you talking about?
My clothes are mostly second hand, clothes you’d never wear
Imma say it yet again, why don’t you get it man?
The only reason why I’m not in the red is
Because I don’t blow through the little money I have
See I don’t buy stuff that I cannot afford like you, shit
I’m broke and not dumb, I’m all sorts of prudent
And I wouldn’t take handouts if my life was on the line
I’d rather go cook meth with a former student, oh yeah
Motherfuckers go to clubs and cool their Hennessey in buckets
While I’m breaking even at the end of every single month
That’s right! I rarely ever party
Cause you can’t make it rain with only pennies in your pockets
And you’re telling me to stop it ‘cause my parents got some money
I’d rather blow a ton of cocks than let my daddy pay for college
Wouldn’t take it if he offered it, stubborn as shit
Not a kid who gets it but a man who makes the money
You’re still getting breastfed, so don’t you hide it from me, man
I speak the truth, so don’t you lie to me either
We got the same damn job and you’re driving a beamer?
We got the same damn job, you’re wearing Nike and Adidas?
I might stand alone but I stand as a man
Don’t need a brand-name on my pants to represent what I am
What I wear is what Richie Rich is scrubbing the floors with
What I wear is just the shit that I can fucking afford, bitch
That’s only half the truth. Here’s the rest I ain’t lying
If I could afford the shit you wear, I still wouldn’t buy it
Cause only dumb and flat bitches wear abercombie and fitch
And Mike Jeffries, that maggot, he can suck on my dick

Forgiver Forgetter

You know I’ve never been afraid to put the nail in the coffin
And even as I speak I’m holding plenty of grudges
Yeah, I have a hard time investing my trust
Cause when I do, I always seem to end up with nothing
That’s right, I’m no forgiver forgetter
Ask Sarah, no I didn’t forget her
Think I didn’t remember what you’ve done?
Hurt me once and I’ll be bitter forever (bitter forever)
I might come off as an utter fucking dick to people
But that’s okay cause your opinion don’t mean shit to me
Just saying I ain’t afraid to call a spade a spade
So if you’re friends with your ex, you’re a motherfucking bitch to me
Answer that text, you’re a motherfucking bitch to me
Taking her back, you’re a motherfucking bitch to me
Trade your honor for your hand in her crotch
Well Guess what? You’re a motherfucking bitch to me
Now they walk up to me, smiling from ear to ear
Saying that it’s such a shame they didn’t hear from me
Here’s the deal, phones work both ways, bitch
And my number’s been the same for more than 15 years
So if you wanted to talk, you could’ve sent me text
And I prolly would’ve texted you back
But you didn’t and I don’t consider someone
That I haven’t seen in nearly half a decade a friend
And even back then, you would’ve never returned favors
Guess we have never been friends in the first place
I needed help, back then I was weak
Now I’m a lion and a lion doesn’t hang out with sheep
You’re a stranger to me, so don’t mistake me for fam, man
The last thing I wanna shake is your damn hand
I toast to the few, who stood true
It’s champaign for my real and real pain for my sham friends
I got a chip on my shoulder, I’m battling
Demons from the past, I’ve never moved on from anything
I’m bitter about my past, bitter about my exes
I’m so bitter when I piss the whole shitter smells like lemons
Yeah I’m bitter about those rats who left me when it mattered
Lars, I’m talking about you, my weasely friend
I hope you’re praying every day to never see me again
Cause I promise, motherfucker, I would beat you to death
Yeah, I put a lot of stock in the stuff you said
I really thought that I could trust you, man
Remember? I helped you out but never got your help
So eat a dick like the bitch you are and fuck yourself
You heard it once and Imma make sure you heard it again
I don’t have trust issues, I just learned from the past
So there’s no need for me to be concealing the fact
That hard feelings are the only fucking feelings I have
See if I feel your respect, I will treat you like family
Would catch a bullet for you, let your shield be my chest
But if as soon as shit gets hard you are leaving my ass
Imma hold a fucking grudge that I will keep till I’m dead
