(Chorus) | |
I got some skeletons locked in the closet, yea yea | |
And I’ve been dying dying just to find an outlet, yea yea | |
And I’m hoping that no one finds out about it, yea yea | |
Wishing maybe it will disappear but I doubt it, I doubt it | |
(Verse) | |
I look over my shoulder not knowin’ where it’s coming from | |
But knowin’ that it’s coming I was buggin as a youngin, | |
Aow I’m running from a something that’ll even out my dumb decisions | |
The night I shot, and had him bleeding out his lungs and spittin | |
Do any sins go unforgiven? I hope not | |
‘Cause most of mine were hunger driven, nothing in my mother kitchen, | |
Stomach sounded like the clouds ignited and the thunder hittin’ | |
So the wellest grew kid ended up with more than a couple missing | |
Still not a chef but now the cocaine forever cooking | |
I love kids, but now I’m selling to a pregnant woman | |
Stomach through the projects and the M, with a cup in my hand | |
Gun on my waist and I don’t give a fuck is my plan | |
You’ll never understand, my palms sweat | |
Followed by a shortness of breath then my heart jets and I ain’t find it calm yet | |
Go unless shorty sing | |
‘Cause ain’t no way in hell to save Joel | |
They bring enough to tell you everything | |
(Chorus) | |
I got some skeletons locked in the closet, yea yea | |
And I’ve been dying dying just to find an outlet, yea yea | |
And I’m hoping that no one finds out about it, yea yea | |
Wishing maybe it will disappear but I doubt it, I doubt it | |
(Verse) | |
Fuck all that rappin, I’mma let the conversation rock | |
I got skeletons in my closet | |
The living dead live in a nigga head behind a combination lock | |
When will the occupation stop and make it a vacant lot? | |
The black Mamba when I crack vodka, I’mma take a shot | |
And hope them stowaways go away before the anchor drops | |
Yo thanks a lot, I’m a bottle drinking nutcase | |
Government double XL behind M, I had the drunk face | |
I steadily dream about cleaning these demons out | |
In order to clean them out you gotta scream and shout all of your secrets out loud | |
It started as a kid at my school desk | |
Aced every quiz but I wanted to pass the cool test | |
Ain’t nothing cool about school, shopping at the thrift store | |
And living in an abandoned station wagon because you were piss poor | |
So I started stealing all of the clothes that the other kids wore | |
That’s when the skeletons moved into my mind on the 6th floor | |
And more came through Crooked I’s youth | |
I slowly started moving them out my closet into this mic booth | |
For real, bro | |
(Chorus) | |
I got some skeletons locked in the closet, yea yea | |
And I’ve been dying dying just to find an outlet, yea yea | |
And I’m hoping that no one finds out about it, yea yea | |
Wishing maybe it will disappear but I doubt it, I doubt it | |
(Interlude) | |
I thought I had it locked away til forever | |
But no memories fade away, they seem to stay | |
Comfortable in my conscience, you live in my dreams | |
They say time heals it all, then why’s bane still with me? | |
(Verse) | |
See the problem is I know it all | |
Or maybe the problem is that I just show it all | |
Maybe didn’t think that I should be ashamed of my actions but really there’s no remorse | |
Maybe the Lord decided I suffered enough and let me live with no withdrawals | |
Then again I live with mean as He deem that I’m much too important to focus all | |
We could talk about pain 24/7, dog that’s my department | |
In a city blues cruise and I’m blastin that Marvin | |
Skeletons ain’t in my closet, that’s my apartment | |
And they like to hide behind thousand dollar fabrics and garments | |
It’s all bleaked in me | |
Tell my pop I ain’t bothered when he don’t speak to me, I love you but it’s weak to me | |
Oh one can’t, life’s short and there’s no excuse to do it | |
You was missing half my life dog, I’m kinda used to it | |
Modern day Son of Sam, judge but you don’t understand | |
Me against the world, I plan on winning, know I’m under man | |
Wanna see through the eyes of a monster? Look through my glasses tint | |
My room is a stadium, just take care of half the rent | |
(Chorus) | |
I got some skeletons locked in the closet, yea yea | |
And I’ve been dying dying just to find an outlet, yea yea | |
And I’m hoping that no one finds out about it, yea yea | |
Wishing maybe it will disappear but I doubt it, I doubt it | |
I doubt it | |
I doubt it | |
I doubt it… |
Chorus | |
I got some skeletons locked in the closet, yea yea | |
And I' ve been dying dying just to find an outlet, yea yea | |
And I' m hoping that no one finds out about it, yea yea | |
Wishing maybe it will disappear but I doubt it, I doubt it | |
