Pinch me Is this real This feeling of release I’m floating in your heaven In the corners of my dreams Tasting life Numb again Close my eyes It begins… I cannot stumble here I am safe inside my head When I wake up Ill forget I’ll come back to my mess I will not leave Stay asleep Slip further in My ecstasy Safe inside my mind I hide
One day you’re gonna ride ahead of yours / That day you’re gonna rise above of the occasion Hurt / You know it comes like this / It goes like this / Hurt / You know it goes like this it comes like this / I guess the pills don’t work and the drinks don’t work / In the morning it hurts like cigarette burns / The summer’s daft and winter’s long One day you’re gonna find a way too / That day you’re gonna ride ahead of your vocation / Hurt / You know it comes like this / It goes like this / Hurt / You know it goes like this it comes like this / I guess the pills don’t work and the drinks don’t work / In the morning it hurts like cigarette burns / The summers daft and winter’s long
If you knew just what to do, if you knew just what to say, i will hand it over to you on a plate. If you tell me what you like, if you tell me what you don't. I can give you happy, hippie, happy time. But you don't know what to do and you don't know what to say, if you say yes, I counld stay; if you say no I will go, are you ever satisfied anyway?
You pretend to be a fool but you are not that cool, use your bullets on me, I will be your prey. You just keep me in suspens, got me hanging for a dance. I'm a really tasty pie if you try. So if you do not tell me soon I might have to leave the room, as I'm looking all my patience and you're not looking so gracious, I am fast forgetting why... anyway.
If you just tell me how to play, if you just tell me day by day, I could be all you need, I could be all you want. So if I knew just what to do and if I knew just what to say, you would hand it over to me on a plate. I have tried so tenderly to not fully torture me but I'm doomed to wait on you
Standing at this liquor store Whiskey coming through my pores Feeling like I run this whole block Lotto tickets and cheap beer That's why you can catch me here Tryna scratch my way up to the top
Cause my job's got me going nowhere So I ain't got a thing to lose Take me to a place where I don't care This is me and my liquor store blues
I'll take one shot for my pain One drag for my sorrow Get messed up today I'll be okay tomorrow
One shot for my pain One drag for my sorrow Get messed up today I'll be okay tomorrow
Me and my guitar tonight Singing to the city lights Tryna live on more than what I got Cause 68 cent Just ain't gonna pay the rent so I'll be out here til they call the cops
Cause my job got me going nowhere So I ain't got a thing to lose Take me to a place where I don't care This is me and my liquor store blues
I'll take one shot for my pain One drag for my sorrow Get messed up today I'll be okay tomorrow
One shot for my pain One drag for my sorrow Get messed up today I'll be okay tomorrow
[Damian Marley:] Here comes Junior Gong I'm flying high like superman And thinking that I run the whole block I don't if it's just because Pinapple kush between my jaws Has got me feeling like I'm on top Feeling like I woulda stand up to the cops And stand up to da bigger heads because de whole a dem a saps All de talk dem a talk and dem (fly make no drop) Nuff ghetto youth cannot escape the trap
Give me this one shot for my pain One drag for my sorrow Get messed up today I'll be okay tomorrow
One shot for my pain One drag for my sorrow Get messed up today I'll be okay tomorrow
