Tremendous Damage

(album: Vicious Lies And Dangerous Rumors - 2012)

Sometimes I wonder how I get over
The weight of everything is tearing up my soul but
Shit is heavy like the world on my shoulders
People telling me be strong like a soldier
But I suffered tremendous damage

Just make it fade away
Just let it fade away
Just make it fade away
I suffered tremendous damage

So many things that I didn't know
But still I've seen my dreams come true
And now the little kids are watching my videos
And telling me: I wanna be you
See, I'm just a man so I ain't scared of all that
No matter whatever I go through
I told the man in the mirror: keep pushin on
But I can't say the same about you
Now now now, I done made it this far
It ain't a way I'm gonna turn back
I started out with no car
And graduated to a Cadillac
But all that money don't mean a goddamn thing to me
Cause we don't worship dads

But like the Wright Brothers we gotta crash and burn
Before you take flight I know you're hurt bad

Sometimes I wonder how I get over
The weight of everything is tearing up my soul but
Shit is heavy like the world on my shoulders
People telling me be strong like a soldier
But I suffered tremendous damage

Just make it fade away
Just let it fade away
Just make it fade away
I suffered tremendous damage

February 28th the day my daddy died
Boy not really, his energy passed to the other side
And ever since that day I seen him fade away
With my own eyes, I never doubted God
The marine corps, they say semper fi
My daddy fought in Vietnam,
This is a fun fact from the blunt line of Antoine
Andre, just like that song say
I suffered tremendous damage, got me tougher than a motherfucker
And since the days I play his ball
Ya'll thought it was a run off, these broads will slam the Cadillac doors now
The American Idol's just a fraud
You kiss a man, you still gon be a frog
Ribbit, a bitter old negro, not at all
See, I look 26 and still hit your broad
Still pitch a ball
Hike, pass, shoot, kick it all
Practice makes perfect but first it was bamboo and now it's cross
(I hit the jackpot!)

Sometimes I wonder how I get over
The weight of everything is tearing up my soul but
Shit is heavy like the world on my shoulders
People telling me be strong like a soldier
But I suffered tremendous damage

Just make it fade away
Just let it fade away
Just make it fade away
I suffered tremendous damage

Sometimes I wonder how I get over
The weight of everything is tearing up my soul but
Shit is heavy like the world on my shoulders
People telling me be strong like a soldier
But I suffered tremendous damage

Just make it fade away
Just let it fade away
Just make it fade away
I suffered tremendous damage

Ride through the city, whip with this now go blast
Blastin the system as the wheels spin slow
Ride through the city, whip with this now go blast
Blastin the system as the wheels spin slow
Ride through the city, whip with this now go blast
Blastin the system as the wheels spin slow
Ride through the city, whip with this now go blast
Blastin the system as the wheels spin slow
