HURT
Lyrics
Another day
Just another day
For the OutKasts and runaways
Nobody wanna put their guns away
Cause nobody wanna put their guns away
Every day is just another day
So I treat it like every other day
Mayday, mayday
I need assistance
911
I forgot to mention
Called my pastor
But his phone was busy
Wifey tied up
She ain't tryin' to hear me
When I'm so numb
I don't feel a feeling
When my knees get weak
When my eyes get teary
Who's gonna hold me
When I feel I'm falling
When my days are used up
When I cannot call in
When my strength is failing
All my cards are tossed in
When all of my boss friends
Feel like my false friends
Who can I call to
Who's gonna fall through
I done tried everything and everybody
This time I'm calling you
Another rap
For another day
Just the rain
On my window pain
Took a long time
To get it straight
Lace my shoes up
And run the race
Through the pit fall
Pot holes
Creased the toes
Scuffed up the soles
Clutches the wheel
Still lost control
Jack knifed
Over the black ice
And I'm still here
What a black life
I'm black magic
In the black of night
People telling me
That I ain't right
But it only takes one
To fly a kite
So I keep my hands on
My own strings
Keep my mind on
My own things
They got advice
About everything
But who's gone pick up
When the phone rings
Who can I call to
Who's gonna fall through
I done tried everything and everybody
This time I'm calling you
Demonstrate
Let me demonstrate
Let me illustrate
How I feel the weight
I feel the stress
Caving in my chest
Just these scraps
On my dinner plate
Everybody eating
Why I'm starving
Got my points
And I shared the margins
I came up
People tried to kill me
Bit my style
But said they didn't feel me
Asking people questions
Like, Who is he, really
Instead of building with me
Tried to end me
That's facts is
It's bigger than rap
Put East St. Louis on maps
Foot on the gas
I'm speeding through traps
Running my hand through my naps
Ya'll wanna act
When you needed me
It was on like that
The first time I ever needed you
Now I can't get a call back
Who can I call to
Who's gonna fall through
I done tried everything and everybody
This time I'm calling you
Another day
Just another day
For the OutKasts and runaways
Nobody wanna put their guns away
Cause nobody wanna put their guns away
Every day is just another day
So I treat it like every other day
Mayday, mayday
I need assistance
911
I forgot to mention
Called my pastor
But his phone was busy
Wifey tied up
She ain't tryin' to hear me
When I'm so numb
I don't feel a feeling
When my knees get weak
When my eyes get teary
Who's gonna hold me
When I feel I'm falling
When my days are used up
When I cannot call in
When my strength is failing
All my cards are tossed in
When all of my boss friends
Feel like my false friends
Who can I call to
Who's gonna fall through
I done tried everything and everybody
This time I'm calling you
