Lyrics

[00:01.64] Uhh,Uhh, Where am I going?
[00:03.56]
[00:04.84] Where am I? Yo, it's ill
[00:10.15]
[00:10.73] Yo my wife's tired of fucking me
[00:13.27] Life tries ducking me
[00:14.59] Luckily I find 'em just at the right time
[00:16.49] Mack in my right arm, Tequila bottle in
[00:18.43] My left arm like Cristian
[00:19.81] Watching my life go, keeping myself in
[00:21.52] Wolves in the night yo, hells men
[00:23.82] Two revolvers I can let twelve spin
[00:25.84] Hop in my Benz, push it to the limit
[00:28.35] Buck-sixty, who wit' me? My quest to well
[00:30.40] Twisted blunts and inner conscience
[00:31.85] Telling me that I aint shit
[00:34.49] No matter how much cash I sit with
[00:36.22] Still gotta ask the lord for forgiveness
[00:37.77] My precious baby girl came like forty nights of rain
[00:39.64]
[00:40.42] To replenish my adolescent brain
[00:42.70]
[00:43.46] Blessed be her name, before her birth I was insane
[00:46.03] So I drive the cooler pressure down, delay the pain
[00:48.06] I ate from these poisonous, fucked up streets
[00:50.52] Tasted larceny, it was sweet, I starved for more to eat
[00:52.95] Though I took, that was to live, hope God will forgive
[00:55.47] As odd as it is, the more I gain the harder it is
[00:58.36] To maintain, bitches playin' games
[00:59.86] Niggas snitchin', I aint saying names
[01:01.78] But y'all niggas better watch how y'all slang
[01:03.57] Lost so many close niggas, drunk almost crashed
[01:05.83] I'm going too fast, highway patrol will just flash
[01:08.48] Lights in my rearview, if they stop me I hope they lock me
[01:11.93] Instead they speed ahead
[01:12.99]
[01:13.57] Yo nigga watch me
[01:14.62] I'm drunk by myself, gun under my seat
[01:16.43] I don't want none of my peeps caught up in none of my beef
[01:19.51] I'm a ride to the end of the road if I have to
[01:22.40] Praying no car speeds by for me to crash to
[01:24.54] Steering wheel in my hand
[01:25.89] Trying to hold it steady
[01:27.27] Anything in my way is dead
[01:28.69] Cause that's the way I feel, I am already
[01:30.73] When I'm drunk by myself alone in the zone
[01:33.27] Drunk by myself
[01:33.94]
[01:35.03] Heard niggas hate me, but I hated too once
[01:37.70] Been in the shoes of a Wolf in the night when he hunts
[01:40.36] For every shell niggas bust, we bust at ourselves
[01:42.58] Can't tell them niggas nothing though, bullets wak'em up well
[01:45.22] Take them to hell
[01:46.33] Stick up niggas once ran up on me
[01:48.29] My deckited lifestyle attracted sharks on me
[01:50.48] I aint your mark homey
[01:51.90] It's hard to look straight, my foot on the brake
[01:54.19] Spilling my bottle not even shook of the Jakes
[01:56.21] Could hardly look both ways, put out the hayes blurry vision
[01:58.93] Think about the time in my life before I was in televison
[02:01.42] Hella women, jealous niggas up in my vision
[02:03.76] Since we all hood niggas expect kilos
[02:05.97] For what they not seeing is police expect Rico
[02:07.87]
[02:08.46] Only if I could take care of everybody, intoxicated
[02:10.86]
[02:11.64] Windows up blastin A.C. going wherever instinct takes me
[02:14.22]
[02:15.03] I hate it when I'm like this
[02:16.91] The bottle's my accomplice
[02:18.07] I'm drunk by myself, gun under my seat
[02:19.77] I don't want none of my peeps caught up in none of my beef
[02:22.70] I'm a ride to the end of the road if I have to
[02:25.43] Praying no car speeds by for me to crash to
[02:27.74] Steering wheel in my hand
[02:29.00] Trying to hold it steady
[02:30.19] Anything in my way is dead
[02:31.59] Cause that's the way I feel, I am already
[02:33.89] When I'm drunk by myself alone in the zone
[02:36.27] Drunk by myself
[02:36.98]
[02:37.49] The reason that I want to be alone
[02:39.41] Tired of all the things that went wrong
[02:40.96]
[02:41.51] That would have went right if I would have did it on my own
[02:44.42] Take another swigg
[02:44.95] The more I drink, the more I think bad thoughts
[02:47.36] Fake friends who hung around who wanna bring you down
[02:49.67] Not knowing who to trust, runors about niggas coming through
[02:52.02] Supposedly to shoot at us, not knowing what was true
[02:54.27] Or what to believe, that's why I'm on the low lately
[02:56.61] Choosing a Henny bottle over a friend, lost again
[02:59.32] To keep my mind off that weak shit
[03:01.43] There's love through it all, things to live for
[03:03.52] I swerve, almost crash into a wall
[03:05.07] Think about the good, find myself laughing
[03:07.02] Turn the cell off, no way to be reached
[03:09.50] Know I'm near my crib, trying to see my way through the streets
[03:12.31] Reminded of the positive, I take my drunk ass home
[03:14.69] Start feeling out of it, can't wait to get out of this whip
[03:17.53]
[03:18.49] Bring my ass to the crib
[03:20.22] I'm tired...
[03:20.98] I'm drunk by myself, gun under my seat
[03:22.80] I don't want none of my peeps caught up in none of my beef
[03:25.96] I'm a ride to the end of the road if I have to
[03:29.00] Praying no car speeds by for me to crash to
[03:31.23] Steering wheel in my hand
[03:32.49] Trying to hold it steady
[03:33.78] Anything in my way is dead
[03:35.19] Cause that's the way I feel, I am already
[03:37.32] When I'm drunk by myself alone in the zone
[03:39.30]
[03:40.41] Drunk by myself
[03:41.17]
