Stressed Out (feat. Faith Evans) [LP Version]

I really know how it feels to be, stressed out, stressed out When you're face to face with your adversity I really know how it feels to be, stressed out, stressed out We're gonna make this thing work out eventually Yo I ain't one to complain but there's things in the game (What's your name?) Consequence, I'm tight, burnt like flames (And why's that?) American dreams, they got this ghetto kid in a fiend Don't stress that 'cause it's not in your bloodstream Your whole being, comes from greatness, d'you remember Shatan got you caught in the storms of December And brothers on the block packin' nines like September Crazy situations keeps pockets on slender (check it) Yo I be on the avenue where they be actin' brand new I'm splurgin' on these Reebok joints for shorty boo All of a sudden, I saw these two kids frontin' Talkin' out they joints but they wasn't sayin' nuttin' My hand was on my toolie they was actin' unruly (Say word) yo word up, yo I was tight caught up But I swallowed my pride and let that nonsense ride Because I'm positive it seems that negative dies Yo we was at the dice game makin these cats look silly Flamin', steady runnin' off at the Willie I had my cash mixed, my rent due, with my play-dough I gotta see some loot so all my girls I blow Shook them shits in my palm let 'em hit the flo' Kept my eyeballs scopin' for them pigs po-po I got to go on the ave see my parole by fo' But I gotta steady freak these boys like JoJo And I was doin' it, 'til I met Ike, Spike, and Mike One roll, they had my pockets thirstier than Sprite Yo I know the feelin', when you feelin' like a villain You be havin' good thoughts but the evils be revealin' And the stresses of life can take you off the right path (no doubt) Jealousy and envy tends to infiltrate your staff We gotta hold it down so we can move on past All adversities, so we can get through fast, like that I really know how it feels to be, stressed out, stressed out (really know) When you're face to face with your adversity I really know how it feels to be, stressed out, stressed out (oh yeah) We're gonna make this thing work out eventually You got the N.W.O.
