Free To Lay

whispers...
 in the night send quite a bit of fright
 yesterday dreams of eating vanilla ice ceam
 outside in the street hearing people scream

 going shadow boxing & I'm not lying
 getting busy in my crib got fish that's frying
 years ago let the truth be told,
 you will do what you've been told until the rights to you are sold

 getting busy & free to lay every single day
 at the back of the bar
 shooting hoops lisening to the juke & their you are
 took out my magical pad drawng pictures having fun

 Time is a killer gettig caught right in the midde
 Sucka's want to blame me for all the mistakes in the world
 Waiting to get past ths new phase getting lost in a purple haze
 Out on the street I see a bum pissing

 Is there something I should learn in this newest lesson
 Free to lay under the sun watching everybody have some fun
 There's a quest in my heart blown full of desire
 getting lost in the sauce now I'm ready to retire
