Another Song

So for that I'm sorry I promise if I could sing another song, I would
Pretty soon I'll be gone

We cherish them because soon they'll be gone away
And so far I ain't felt what happiness feels like
Soon they'll be gone away on to another place

Maybe if I was evil I'd be rolling in bread

Then somebody got me locked behind bars
So many situations to deal with
These are the days, these are the days
No crimes committed, so tell me why I'm doin' time?
Even though you had me sleepin' on a curb
Pretty soon I'll be gone
To keep from trippin' I be stayin' in the trees
Wishin' murder would come on and take me
I apologize for not havin' any sarcastical songs
Mama died when I was 6 and Daddy ain't have enough time

It's bad enough I lost a family, my luck ain't live
And won't nobody come and set a nigga free
So I apologize for not makin' you dance
For your crime I'm doin' time in the Penn tonight

You know that good feelin' with 'em that put a smile on your face
Strugglin' and I'm strivin' and just barely survivin'
Until somebody with a pistol come and opened my head
If I'm broke I'd rather die, I don't want no more poverty growing old
I wish I could tell you my life is good but it's not
But I ain't holdin' no grudges Daddy, I love you that's my word
But maybe Z-Ro livin' lavish just ain't meant to be
I can't concentrate a hundred homies and everyone is fake
Soon they'll be gone away, on to another place
Stuck in this reality until my life is over and gone
See I can only display my personal feelings and experiences
Twenty sum odd years of calling God on this mobile phone
I'd just like to take a minute to apologize to my listeners

Happiness or bein' in peace and shit like that
And it seems that I won't ever get no rest, I'm exhausted
Soon they'll be gone away, on to another place

Twenty sum odd years of calling God on this mobile phone
Or experienced anything but hard times and heartache
I wish that I could sing another song
Oh Lord, I wish I had another song

I'd rather help out my people instead of poppin' my collar
To kick it with me like I wanted him to kick it with me
Day to day, it's a struggle in my lifetime
These are the days, these are the days
Tryna make it compare the price and pain is what the cost is
I wish Missouri city runners were cold but they're hot
How can I make it out the ghetto it won't let me go
Seems like every time I do a good deed, good deeds never return to 'Ro

I just wanna say I'm sorry for not havin' any songs about

Sunshine is the level that I think I'm on, so tell me why it's so much rain?
I ain't had nothin' to offer accept for frowns
These are the days, these are the days

Twenty sum odd years of calling God on this mobile phone
I wish I had another song
Pretty soon I'll be gone

'Cause I'm the type of fella that'll give a bum a hundred dollars

I wish that I could get a million copies sold
We cherish them because soon they'll be gone away
I'm trying so hard even though my soul is scarred

I wish that I was ridin' around in a Bentley
I'm tired of sleepin' in rivers of tears all night long
If it wasn't for my life style, I'd sing another song
'Cause I can't even pay bills even though my CD's won't stay on the shelf
I gave up my last so somebody could have a start
If it wasn't for my life style, I'd sing another song
So much [Incomprehensible] I just gotta pull my wig back
No point in wonderin' why my people choose to do me wrong

I wish that I could sing another song but my rhythm is too much pain
But my mission is keepin' ambition
Bobbin' and weavin' my last breathe time after time
We cherish them because soon they'll be gone away
Now that I'm incarcerated you wanna come and visit with me
What a way to show ya love back, homie you a friend for life
And wonder why the whole world hate me
Sometimes I wish that I was somebody else
Sometimes at night I smoke a cig and sit back
