4 Corners for 4 Quarters

lyrics

4 corners starin' hard at the kid...
for 4 quarters i whole heartily lived in this myth
and in that mist of emotion - openly sinned
so when you open lee up you get a Cardinal gift.
it's a booth full of closure...
suit stitched in culture...
too stiff for one dance and - still movin' closer
poser - to a vulture...
still a-top his game tho'...
birds eye view / the strangle hold havin' him strangled.
that, why lie - i need a beer sign
'cause one wrong move - pops & i was the same guy.
dramatize the line to bring clarity to 'what if'...
'cause what if this is all aligned until my mom die?
thoughts heavy - carry weight of nine lives
the cats stress over, wait, i'm more a nine five
'95 / that work / or an earthquake...
triple entendre - y'all crack'n off freebase.
i write hits in my sleep & then they sleep on 'em
piece by piece, i peak boredom - think cautious
'cause if i cross a line...
there's line of crosses 'round corners...
Sunday morning, ya' family mourning...
...heed the warning.
BIG at 5:46...
who's this pagin' lee, impatiently in need of a fix?
i'm gettin' pissed at these idiots i meet in the mix
always wantin' free drugs - over freedom to live.
[ "back to my room..." ]
sold souls to the highest of addicts
how they manage to get over wasn't thoughts to be havin'
had it better than the average has-been in the traffic
laughin' as it all crumble to ashes - God damnit...
[ "back to my room..." ]
past flashes of greatness practiced...
too late to panic, at the disco dancin'...
ampin' to let this go - manic depressive...
only thing i ask...
is you give that man in my mirror the message.
[ "back to my room..." ]
i was in those 4 corners for 4 quarters
only there for your orders...
fuck all these poor George's...
this pen writes life as it move forward...
but back to my room 'til i feel like i'm more important.
