Believe it or not, oblivion live on my block
every street corner every house n every spot/
every dope fiend barely carryin his body/
adolesent mommies remenisin graduation party/ [bad word] it, my homies stressin in his bucket/
afraid to look me in the eye aware of all the gossip
hes mad at me cuz when he talk I do not listen/ [bad word] all the predictions of me goin to prison u-m-m-m/
dawg pull over at the traffic light
sum blood on the snow, sumbody probly had a fight/
I wish the day coulda been better but it didnt/
perhaps it is the weather, I fall asleep n/

n as I wake up, its a kinda shake-up 2 c a break a dawn/
n as I wake up i be tryna make up all the thangs that went wrong/
n as I wake up, its a kinda shake-up 2 c a break a dawn/
n as I wake up i be tryna make up all the thangs that went wrong/

I had a dream of readin people from cover to cover/
cellphone is 2 be off cuz the calls bother/
standin at her door ringin the bell/
2 hours late thinkin up a story to tell/
replace the [bad word] wit booze, get her wide-open/
play a lil listenin game as a token/
of bein there while Im not there for a minute/
pin it on me beatin the victim until the sucker fell, WHO?
tell a homie what to do, can a gutter kid?
be given a chance that one day he's gonna get out of it/
shiit, I think Im stayin up 2day/
cuz I made 2 many mistakes/

n as I wake up, its a kinda shake-up 2 c a break a dawn/
n as I wake up i be tryna make up all the thangs that went wrong/
