The Edge

Why you laughin at me like you see something funny I'm goin through some grown man stuff no bucks up me My - chucks is bummy runny nose empty tummy Cut up clothes very grundgy tell me DOES ANYBODY LOVE ME!!! No - place of residence I walk on rocky sediments Lookin for thugs peddlin drugs I need a buzz It's - hard to sleep on car-board or con-crete In parks starvin to eat heart partially beats It's hard to disregard that God revolves in the streets Watching the scarred shake off the mark of the beast Excuse me sir, ma'am, can I p-pump yo gas For a dolla, my throats dry I need something to swalla Last night was harsh by far food was not evident Can't get far with eleven cents my stomach tremblin ~Cough--cough~ and now I feel sick No food warm beer and I'm smokin these brown sticks ~sniff--sniff~ My body's been had a foul stench It's a 1 in a billion chance I'll get a down chic It's hard to disregard that God revolves in the streets Watching the scarred shake off the mark of the beast The Edge
