26 and Paul wants a great life, a good paying job, |
|
A nice house, a kid, a pretty wife. he can't hold a job, |
|
He never has & knows he never will, he plays the lottery |
|
& blames his problems on the world. I've been seeing this |
|
Shit for some time, we all got our problems, yes we've |
|
All got our needs, I've been seeing this shit for some time, |
|
Take good care of yourself. first of the month and the rent |
|
Is due again, checking his savings he's got pocket lint to spend. |
|
Down on his luck, with no tears to spare, desperation motivates |
|
A mind not clear. one day he said things are gonna change, |
|
One day when I've got things squared away. one day soon turns |
|
Into the next, one day were the words he said with his last breath. |
|
1992 Paul walks into the liquor store, with an unloaded pistol, |
|
I don't need to say more. his life ended in a tragic way, |
|
Noone cried for him, not one to this day |
