Nothing left for the gods to give
god forgive me
I’m lost again here sitting with these thoughts
again bottles empty when they tempt me
couple sips and I felt free
still standing on unsteady legs
a heavy head giving me neck pains
next day I’ll be the same
jumped in a bottle cus I thought it could sustain
but left nothing behind but bloody red stains
a blank memory and a bad new day
lost to my ways like so many others hand on my heart cus nobody loves us
scars all around from times
I got low smile on my face but inside it’s cold
that warm embrace ya feel is not so I’d say
that I lost it
but I never had hope there's something in the water
the body of a pauper the banshee is calling with her
I must go lost to my ways like so many others
hand on my heart cus nobody loves us
laughter dies down tears soon follow
when the drink dries up get drunk from the sorrow cry
to the birds and the bees and swallows
cry cus the earth beneath my feet feels hollow
cry with the wind when it wails on the Morrow
cry just to cry then cry tears of sorrow
hand on my heart cuz nobody loves
down on my luck getting comfy in the gutter
no helping hand ever help me to stand
I’m a wretched man born bred for a struggle
catch a break that’ll be the day the going gets easy
I see no trouble so wish good fortune on the unfortunate
when it rains it pours and clouds don’t pass

LYRICS
Smokey days came then exhaled
Shakey ground had me pulling weight
Trips around estates I weren’t keen to stay
but if peer pressure hears your name called you don’t have a say
And if the shades call you don’t say your name
And if them lights flash then we taking chase
go head and light that smoke until your brains
That’s the tone of my home it’s all
Hopeful dreams of getting outta life alive
Unholy schemes utilized to try survive
Get out the dirt easy nah you’d be surprised
cus when golds in the soil it’s so hard to say goodbye
Once more to be a fool walking school through the foggy dew
dumb know it all flying blind
stop peeking out that window mind your business close them blinds
Parasites been sucking blood I’m pale white like the sky
I’m conflicted in this life
good heart but bad intentions I’m afflicted by my times
Fucks a job role models not about got left behind
excuse excuses but I plead play the victim pay the price
Laughing crying silent I’m addicted to the lies
I’m too spiteful breaking bread forgiveness
shit is not my style came out the womb with a chip on my shoulder
my demise my oh my
Father drinking mother crying night time lullabies
what am I paying for praying for better times
heavy eyes steady hands waiting way more
happy days never came anyways nothing changed
vacate from myself on my heart there’s a strain
what am I paying for praying for better times
heavy eyes steady hands waiting way more
happy days never came anyways nothing changed
vacate from myself on my heart there’s a strain

LYRICS
Bless me god when you test me
I been less of a man since shit got tough
Check me when I get empty
when this heads heavy and I feel like life’s too tough
bless me devils they tempt me
tryna convince me your the one that’s crooked
been walking this desert looking for you
come quench my thirst down and out
nobody knows you when you're down and out
loud and proud I’m shouting out
fuck anybody than me
just me and myself bad company
so it’s fuck life till death comes for me
gonna cut ties lest you got love for me
Paleboy got the vision
day ones stay committed the pay off coming quick
when i said what I said ya it is what it is
I got plans for my family struggling
I got mad dreams of us living untroubled
by the things that had us in fear
I’m a humble king nothing lavish round here
knockadali on death's door I don’t got no fear
fuck an apology no I am not sincere
do what you wanna do I don’t got no care
don’t come around here acting like you been there from the start
when you’ve licked your last arse and got nowhere hand on my heart
you are not in here devils in my ear talk shit but now shits clear
gods got me im good got lots you need to hear
Slick with the words that I spit
from a verse the first time I wrote some shit
it was back in 2013 same time I was slacking
never in school outside I was snapping social workers tryna take me away but godknows wasn’t gonna let that happen
I don’t got time to be waiting for none all my life
been patient hoping one day shit might change for the best
but I’m 22 now and shits looking hopeless
drinking smoking sleeping waking up each day
to go through the motions pleasure with pain I pay
through the nose measure my worth
with silver and gold both of which I got none of
is it enough that I’m getting by
nothing in the fridge is edible
I’m past the point of giving a shit about rap
if the cash is light and they say be grateful for the roof over your head
but that shit caved in aswell
sometimes I don’t feel so swell
long nights getting no sleep cold sweats past mistakes
cause me some regrets thoughts weigh heavy on my head
stand unsteady on my legs
many old friends went downhill ever since then
I been looking for a one way ticket
all expenses paid get away from the city that raised me
hateful thoughts wanna bother me daily
bless me god when you test me
I been less of a man since shit got rough
check me when I get empty
when this heads heavy and I feel like life’s too tough
bless me devils they tempt me
tryna convince me your the one that’s crooked
been walking this desert still looking for you
come quench my thirst
