Always Be Around

The coffee's too strong add some more creamer
I just figured out how to work all these buttons on the beemer
Mama was a dreamer, daddy was a realist
So I had no choice in life but to go an kill this
Let 'em see my dreams turn into reality
I just wish I coulda' done it 'fore my dad's fatality
He's in the clouds singing no more pain
I'm on my knees screaming no more rain
I'm soaking wet, it's like five shells an I'm playing roulette
It's so hard living with the regret, I got set up
But don't let up, they tell me keep my head up
It's hard when your dealing with these Feds to not get fed up
Gotta get my bread up, take it out the oven
Uno mas amigo, gimme' baker's dozen
Yeah, let me enjoy the last supper
All my people suffer, let the water bubble

([Johnny Cash:] I'll always be around, around, around, around, around)
Shovel dirt on my name but..
([Johnny Cash:] I'll always be around, around, around, around, around)
They tryna' take me out the game but...
([Johnny Cash:] I'll always be around, around, around, around, around)
They tryna' knock me off my feet but...
([Johnny Cash:] I'll always be around, around, around, around, around)
I live forever in these streets

Yeah, these people think that I'm supposed to be
Something that I'm not, but I'm not so whatchu' want from me
Trying to get close to me, hang around me like my rosary
Take me out the car, put me away like your groceries
Hang me out to dry like your laundry, get a load of me
I been on trial my hold life, it ain't no folding me
My life is in they hands an I know they could let go of me
But there's more to see my seeds been growing in her ovaries
So it's not over for me, my legacy gon' carry on
Gotta' full house, tight fit, not no Derion
Came from the struggle, rise from the rubble
We'll make it out these streets baby, let the water bubble

([Johnny Cash:] I'll always be around, around, around, around, around)
Shovel dirt on my name but..
([Johnny Cash:] I'll always be around, around, around, around, around)
They tryna' take me out the game but...
([Johnny Cash:] I'll always be around, around, around, around, around)
They tryna' knock me off my feet but...
([Johnny Cash:] I'll always be around, around, around, around, around)
I live forever in these streets

I'm from the slummo, hood of the Gummo
Cops asking questions we look at 'em like "I dunno'"
No opportunities knocking, that's police at the front door
Laying down no mo', turning back is a no go
Giving up is a no no, we deserve a shot too
So we walk around with guns just like the cops do
Yeah, two wrongs don't make it right
But I'll be damned if I go out without a fight (I'm an outlaw)
Son of the righteous, covered in the lambs blood
But when you look at me all you see is a damn thug
Look closer, don't let the world command you
I might bend but won't break bitch I'm bamboo

([Johnny Cash:] I'll always be around, around, around, around, around)
Shovel dirt on my name but...
([Johnny Cash:] I'll always be around, around, around, around, around)
They tryna' take me out the game but...
([Johnny Cash:] I'll always be around, around, around, around, around)
They tryna' knock me off my feet but...
([Johnny Cash:] I'll always be around, around, around, around, around)
I live forever in these streets...
