A Mile In My Shoes
ALONE IN THIS HOUSE QUIET AS A MOUSE WONDERING WHEN IT'LL BE MY TURN
NOTHINGS FAIR IN LOVE AND WAR ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU ARE POOR
THE PRICE I PAID THE WOMEN YOU LAID ONLY IF SHE HAD STAYED
ID SLAY A DRAGON WITH JUST ONE STONE WENT FROM BIRTH TO FULLY GROWN
HE OWNS HIS WIFE A BORROWED LIFE MOTIVE OR EXCUSE ITS RATHER TRIFE
WIPE THOSE TEARS NO ONE CARES THE WHOLE WORLDS SCREAMING THIS ISNT FAIR
FACT OR FICTION WHITE BOYS LYNCHING EVERYONE WISHING UPON A STAR
THINKING THEIR DREAMS ARE WAY TOO FAR
THE CHOICE IS HARD ITS A WILD CARD
BURNED LEFT SCARED RUINED AND CHARRED
THEY HIJACKED FOUR PLANES AND KILLED FOR FAME
HARDLEY INSANE JUST A COURT ROOM GAME
FORGOT MY OWN NAME EASY TO TAME
IGNITE THE FLAME AND DELIGATE THE BLAME
MY PICTURES HUNG WITH A TACK NOT WORTHY OF A PLAQUE
BUILT AND STACKED BAGS ALWAYS PACKED
STREETS ARE MY HOME ALONE I ROME
PAY THE TOLL RACE THE COPS IT NEVER STOPS
LOOKING FOR LOVE IN ALL THE WRONG PLACES
CONFUSING FACES HIGH SPEED CHASES
LEFT OVER FOOD WHATS UP DUDE
CONSIDERED RUDE VORN WITH AN ATTITUDE
PICKING UP STRAGGLERS IN A BAR FRONTING IN A RENTAL CAR
STANDING MY GROUN PAUSE REWOUND
USED TO BE FUN WHEN I WAS YOUNG AND DUMB
YOU THINK YOU WON IT'LL NEVER BE DONE
COME ON SON YOU HIDE BEHIND A WATER GUN
THIS IS NOTHING MORE THAN NONE
