[English]

Fuck

I did way too much drugs, I've been swirlin' and spinnin'

I did way too much drugs, I've been swirlin' and spinnin'

Keep the fireplace warm, I'm almost home (almost there, I'm almost there)

I've officially lost vision, ha!

I found my turf (my turf), bad decision with the chrome in my hand (my hand)

I've been tempted to go clone my seed

I just think there should be more like me (like me)

Know you miss the thought of you and me (ooh)

Keeping up with all the Jones', I can (I can)

Summer day, but I keep ice on my hand

Head I'm spinnin' like a modern home ceiling fan

I just balled up my fist, I cannot feel

I think I did one too much, many pills (fuck!)

I've officially lost vision

(Oh) save your tears for when you get old

'Cause niggas out there ain't in the story you wrote

Realize who's friend and then who's foe

'Cause you got everything they want, you better keep that low

Doing all you can tryna keep your hope

But I'll be gone, before you wake

Old memories, they start to fade

You'll always get a prayer from me back home

You'll always get love, even when you're dead wrong

These bitches get low, but I could go lower

Vibrations is high, keep niggas on they toes

I'm getting in your head more than you may know

I'm here just breathing

Ooh, yeah

I've officially lost vision

I've been sent to a mental prison

I've been forced to make some terribly bad decisions

All these voices in my head, I need an incision

I could see the sky fall, and I'll lose you

This little tiny sheet of paper could change your life

It's chemically proven, It's chemically, uh

...
