Lil JJ Reynolds - Failure Scent Lyrics

Untold stories getting told from the brain's files
Inside the head of an unstable, ghetto child
His current living existence throughout the days were set
And wack for him to live from paycheck to paycheck
But rap was the main thing that he loved to call his favorite hobby
Cause it would separate his flashbacks of dirty copies
Of what he wanted to forget
But it filled his empty head with regrets
That he dreaded on, on top of the stress
Mixed with depression that he couldn't escape from
Or fight it cause his mental condition wouldn't let him
Now he's faking a smile and trying not to be noticed
Despite the demons that left him feeling hopeless
But still he called himself a man that was gonna clean the debris
That satan left but of course evil satan wouldn't agree
And now it's too late to clean up the brain from stress
Forever cursed to get drenched in the failure scent
Failure scent, I'm dirty, I'm dirty
To clean the dirt off my dreams
You smell the, you smell the
The failure, the failure
You smell the, the failure scent
Ya, working daily for a check that got the bills paid
But not enough to break the bond with his mental state
No matter what he tried to save, he was always depressed
Through all the prayers, prescriptions, and the psychiatrists
Nothing seemed to work for him 'except the song lyrics
But on certain days, his brain wasn't in the spirit
Deeply lost in a world that constantly spins
He couldn't keep up with the times 'for him to bury his sins
They stayed with him and because of it, he couldn't find friends
Or build enough confidence to find a girlfriend
Cause the energy he planned to use would turn to nervousness
Unattractive in a bubble 'for his image to hurt him
It destroyed his reflection, so he could never see the light
The more he suffered, made him even more fed up with life
He was dying slowly but he could never catch the hint
Until his life drenched heavily in failure scent
Failure scent, I'm dirty, I'm dirty
To clean the dirt off my dreams
You smell the, you smell the
The failure, the failure
You smell the, the failure scent
That's just the way it plays out in this lifetime
In this generation, it's full of pain and struggle
Non-stop disappointment constantly rising above peace and happiness
Money corrupting this society
Forcing us to live how the system wants us to live
Education for us is far out the window
Cause these days, It costs a fortune to get taught the intelligence that shouldn't have a stupidity price on it
No-one to trust at all these days
Cause fake is the new wave
Drama and violence is the new love and loyalty
Nowhere to go in this lost world but the casket
Generations after generations, after mines are going to drown in toxic pollution and waste
No-one is safe
Death is coming to take us all away
What's that smell?, that's the failure scent, smell of death
