Prescription drugs, show me love Percocets, Adderall Xanny bars, get codeine involved Stuck in this body high, can't shake it off I'm falling off, I can't hold a thought What's wrong with me? Now the pressure creep I'm stressing deep, even in my sleep My mommy call, I hit ignore My daughter calls, I press ignore My chin press on my chest, my knees press the floor I'm blanking out, woke up on the couch Dinner on my shirt, my stomach hurts I had a bust out in the 80's but yo, the karma's worse I cry when nothing's wrong, I'm mad when peace is involved My senses harmed, sluggish ruggish A couple Xannies popped, open my pill box Prescription drugs What's wrong, daddy?! Wake up! Wake up! Prescription drugs, I fell in love My little secret, she gon' kill a thug My body numb, she like to give me hugs I love her touch, I get a rush When she don't come around, I start to go nuts My heart erupts, I'm curled in pain My phone ring, ring and ring and ring If you ain't selling drugs, then I don't hear a thing May 7, Ali calls, p.m. of 6: 45, I finally answer this time He said "Come to the stu', I'm mixing all your rhymes" I don't decline, at least that's in my mind Grab the keys, need some wood for the trees Dap the clerk 'fore I leave, max on my AC Continue right, remember seeing light Wise night, but that's my life Prescription drugs What's wrong? You tired? You mad? Okay, I love you, daddy I just stopped selling crack today I just stopped selling crack today (What you say? What you say?) O-X-Y, a moron, O-X-Y, a moron I just stopped selling crack today I just stopped selling crack today (What you say? What you say?) O-X-Y, a moron, O-X-Y, a moron Crazy, got my sex on wet in her Mercedes Ladies, get these off new shoes for my baby Oxy, I don't know no Pablo or no papi What you know about a pill, plus a 8-ball You gotta re-up 50 times just to get a rack off, ungh I can get a hundred of 'em, make over 3 G's Only took two days, only re-up'd one time Where the sun barely shine and it rain for about Nine months out the year, man it's something right here For Seattle nigga, cheers, when I look up at y'all city like lookin' in the mirror Damn near had a career, just might shed a tear, ungh Man, this shit right here for my niggas who ain't make it home Sitting on a tear, got a dap to a nigga bright in here, feeling life ain't fair If I was in your shoes, I would've copped, don't care Had a scene, had the medics like clear, ungh Big body cold like a Polar Bear, ungh I done sold more shit than hookers, expensive tees, resemble a push up Stopped selling crack, cause white don't fuck with narcos Vanity slave, got whips and chains Dirty money, clean money the same, even if I got life, I ain't saying a name I just stopped selling crack today I just stopped selling crack today (What you say?
