Now I lay me down to sleep

That was then, but this is now

I pray the lord my soul to keep

I let you slip away somehow

If I should die before I wake

If I should die my pain shall stay

I pray the lord my soul to take

I made you what you are today



Now as I look at yourself I'm seein' someone familiar

Starin' back at me through every deep crack that's in my mirror

And as I think to myself

I'm hearin' somebody else screamat me (shhh....)

I no longer hear from

Could it be the unknown

Sneaking into my zone

Off we roam

My spirituals is not alone

I'm visualizing this invisible close

It's my own and its own

Rest assured its my dome

Maybe I need to go to bed

Could have sworn I just heard that voice up in my head

Nots while I raps

When it hit me (ha ha ha ha....)

But now it's laughin at me

Yo what the hell is happenin'

Please somebody slap me

No way notanother physical display

Somethin' must got me backin' off from way back in tha day

But what can it be

I can't recall the memories so if I may ask



I just seen you yesterday

It's my fuckin' past

I just seen yoy yesterday

It's my fuckin' past

I just seen you yesterday

It's my fuckin' past

I just seen you yesterday

It's my fuckin' past

I just seen you yesterday

It's my fuckin' past

I just seen you yesterday

It's my fuckin' past

I just seen you yesterday

It's my fuckin' past

I just seen you yesterday



By any means was all it ever seemed to be

This reminiscin' with my past has got me

Caught up in daydream

Stay in bed with niggas who can pay tha rent

Spending my green on panty hose and tigh jeans

I used to be so amused

Cause the tools that I used to break rules

Only seemed to confuse as to whose bein' abused

Place yourself in my shoes

My blessed look of innocence was never refused



Now that I choose to abide

Hello Left Eye

And put my past to the side

I don't guess I

And kill a piece of my pride

Need to introduce myself

You already said hi

Oh so your the match that light my fuse

Amuse

Huh, I thought I left you on on that cruise

You lose it

Your man took my place when it threw me in your face

So we drank upall the booze



Sing the blues

And yo we end up on the news

Sing the blues

We end up on the news

Sing the blues

We end up on the news

Sing the blues

I said we end up on the news

Sing the blues

We end up on the news

Sing the blues

And yo we end up on the news

Sing the blues

We end up on the news

Sing the blues

We end up on the news

Gotta get away from the past

If I make it I just might last

Gotta get away from the past

Trynna escape it but its movin' too fast



Gotta get away from the past

If I make it I just might last

Gotta get away from the past

Trynna escape it but it's movin' too fast



We was walkin' before most babies could crawl

Yes yes y'all

Above all one foot all

Ain't no way I'm takin' a down fall

I'm restructurin' walls

Interruptin' your calls

And goin' straight to the source

With this nut in my balls

Every time the blind lead the blind

Another one of my kind's outta sight and outta mind

I'm comin' through the press

With this sense you can't mess

I'm sittin' in your dreams

Go ahead take a rest

I'm poppin off your nigga's chest

Should I be in distress?

I'm niggas poppin' on the scene

And they can get these

Thats my bitch

I'm his bitch

What the hell do they know?

Is that so?

This same day case scenario

And I could care less

About your people and their relentlessness

Towards the Eye

Say goodbye



And tell his moms to stop cryin'

Go tell his moms to stop cryin'

His moms to stop cryiin'

Go tell his moms to stop cryin'



My secret enemy

You ain't no friend to me

My secret enemy

You ain't no friend to me

My secret enemy

You ain't no friend to me

My secret enemy
