Lyrics & Translation

[English]

Every day I spend my time

Drinking wine, feeling fine

Waiting here to find the sign

That I can understand

Yes, I am

So every day I spend my time

Drinking wine, feeling fine

Waiting here to find the sign

That I should take it slow (here I go, here I go, here I go)

Off again, there he go to another dimension

My mind, body, soul imprisoned

My eye probably going ballistic but listen

I'm missing a couple of screws, they ain't never do drilling

True, you been sipping away at the truth

A double shot of wisdom'll do (do-do)

Do, do, rolling through, hitting switches

Rolling ditches, blowing kisses to the bitches, holding biscuits

What's the business? Beat the system

Co-defendants, blow the sentence, go to prison

Go to church and pray to father, Lord forgive us (amen)

And only God can judge me (yeah)

And he don't like no ugly

I look so fucking good most dykes'll fuck me buddy

Yeah, I'm a piece of shit, I know I plead the fifth

I tell her, "Holla, if ya need some dick"

The devotion is getting hopeless, but, hold it, I'm getting close

As my soul is, I'm seeing ghosts, a solo is now a poet

Hypnosis overdose on potions, adjusting to the motions

And getting out all my emotions

Every day I spend my time

Drinking wine, feeling fine

Waiting here to find the sign

That I can understand

Yes, I am

So every day I spend my time

Drinking wine, feeling fine

Waiting here to find the sign

That I should take it slow (here I go, here I go, here I go)

Uh, this type of shit

Make a nigga wanna flip September through August

This type of shit got 'em busting off the clip in the middle of the office

And a message to the bosses

The Misfits' new outfit is on the bloglist

Gorgeous hoes, keep the saying that they caused it

For the Porsche's get 'em nauseous

Plus I ain't even mad yet, niggas caught me in a good mood

Paparazzi wanna nag a nigga chillin' at the bag check

Hope they show me in my good shoes

When papa got the brand new bag, Flacko got the brand new rag

That's good news, hood dudes usually don't look like you

How it feel to get a deal and come back and the whole hood look like you?

Screaming "Pimp Squad, hold it down!"

Can't drive, bitch I'm legally blind, bitch

If I leave or die, it's up to me to decide

Shit niggas copping guns like they legal to buy

The only key to survive in getting a piece of the pie

Is to agree with a lot or just believe a façade, bitch

And I'll be fine just-a drinking my wine, bitch

I got the love birds chirpin' at the window

But I don't need love no more

I'll be fine, sipping wine

Taking time slow

I got the love birds chirpin' at the window

But I don't need love no more

I'll be fine, sipping wine

So, every day I spend my time

Drinking wine, feeling fine

Waiting here to find the sign

That I can understand

Yes, I am

Every day I spend my time

Drinking wine, feeling fine

Waiting here to find the sign

I don't care if I ever know (here I go, here I go, here I go)

I got the love birds chirpin' at the window

But I don't need love no more, oh so

I'll be fine, sipping wine

Taking time slow

I got the love birds chirpin' at the window

But I don't need love no more, oh so

I'll be fine, sipping wine

Taking time slow

...
