I used to want love but love hate F*ck around for f*ck's sake But frustrate finding that one mate My luck late So I just wait, bump tapes Sunk straight in the front seat and puff grapes Louder than bus brakes I'm dumb baked, feeling my skin was like reading braille And all the street lights were leaving trails As I cruise down memory lane dodging a DUI I wouldn't be surprised If I got pulled over by one of my deeper tales Well look at that, sirens flashing in my rear view Where do I steer to? It wasn't long before I gave in Put down my window it's amazing Cop was like age 10 Looked in his eyes and saw pain, saw rain Cut me deep when I saw chains I felt what he felt quick Knew everything he knew and dealt what he's dealt with Before you know it, it was i who was the victim of the bottle Prisoner of sorrow, not worried bout the system of tomorrow Visions of him sitting in the kitchen sipping I wanted to kill him while he swallowed But that's my brothers pops, only one he got I snapped back like strapped caps, the cop was gone I backtracked my last acts, what block I'm on? Guessing I blacked out, entered a bad route Searching for an exit to pass now, I ask how 100 on the dash, hoping I don't crash 2 AM, time going by so fast Now I laugh at what happened tryna shake it off So I grab the bag of the purple haze and I blaze it all I see an exit 10 miles straight ahead of me Finally I get to leave this highway of memory On the run from the narcs and cops I pulled up to a darker spot It was a parking lot Of this old-fashioned barber shop Across the street from a bar that got Abandoned vibes, and a letter hanging by the end of its name It was really Janet but if you read it was Jane I'm getting a strange feeling but I head there anyway With all this going on I could use some henny straight As I got closer Heard a lot of laughter that said they were not sober Walked over and opened the door, suddenly the party stopped An abrupt silence got me in an awkward spot It was so quiet, I could hear my heart just drop Bunch of niggas staring at me like I'm hard to watch As if I was foreign, I ignored em, went to bartender Thought it would be Janet, but a man is, at the bar center Had his back turned while he cleaned around the counter Washing glass, said he never seen an out of towner Started talking like he knew me, kept talking like I gave a shit Without looking back he said I was the same age as him Never met his pops, murdered when he was 5 months Too young to figure death so he didn't cry once I began to notice that he's talking bout my life So I yelled out "how long you been stalking me tonight" That's when he turned around and showed face No way Can't believe in what I'm seeing, telling brain don't play He was me, I was him, it was like a mirror Feel like the end of my life is nearer, gotta fight the terror The f*ck is going on, almost fell out from my seat Ran as quick as Usain the day that he won the meet Feels like a felony, my mind state an enemy Hopped in the whip, back to this highway of memory Regretting sexing Mary Jane, plenty is pain Remembering things I thought wouldn't come ever again Sheltered with shame, it was never the same And ain't no one better to blame, I'm dead in the brain Foot on the petal, killing flowers and medical strains Night-sky turns to Tarantino scenes of my past Weed got my ass tripping, feeling like a kryptonite Blue heart, blue soul, feeling like a crip tonight Hard grip on the wheel but I don't think my vision right Rub my eyes, now I see that 10 year old kid in sight I ain't tryna hit him so I skidded right Bartender showed up out of nowhere so I swerved left Lost control, flipping on the road, hit the dirt next Slow. Motion. Shattered glass painted with blood America won't give a shit "Just another idiot tainted with drugs, acquainted with thugs" Moments of my past in each broken glass Watching my life flash 'fore I sleep frozen fast I see myself puffing grapes in the front seat Bumping tapes if I'm not mistaken it was Bun B UGK and Outkast where 3 stacks spazzed That's when I got pulled over and I seen that badge Shortly after I was in a parking lot Of this old-fashioned barber shop Across the street from a bar that got Abandoned vibes, and a letter hanging by the end of its name
