[Verse 1]
Check it out
It's 11:30, my hand is getting dirty
Snatchin' up things that probably can't be worth it
Now this is a vision of a violent life
Livin' by a gun, and tote another knife
And I'm slammin' doors, two, four, five, I'm pullin' the keys
These are the tragic valuable luxuries to me
At the early dawn, before you yawn
I've been there, swiped you, and then I'm gone
[Verse 2]
Now it's six o'clock, my heart tick-tocks
A black satin back full of fat ass rocks
My identity has to be exposed
Stealin' from the spot that I truly chose
I lose and abuse my choice to choose
Now I'm fixed and I'm falling deeper in the mix
There's no hope for me, see
My path's been chosen, I'm Johnny B.
[Verse 3]
Johnny B., how much there is to see
Just open your eyes and listen to me
Straight ahead, a green light turns to red
Oh, why can't you see? Oh, Johnny B.
Johnny B., how much there is to see
Just open your eyes and listen to me
Straight ahead, a green light turns to red
Oh, why can't you see? Oh, Johnny B.
[Verse 4]
The situation's tight, yo, we're billin' by the night
Can't choose between the wrongs and the rights
Now I'm searchin' for the clues, yo, what am I to do?
I got the habit of takin' valuable things from you
Here I stand, and I'm physically trapped by my tan
Driftin' on the breeze travels, a distant man
A lonely path when I stand alone
A realm of affliction, abandoned by my own
[Verse 5]
Here I lay down into certain depths
Evil spirits come and grabs my very last breath
Sometimes I wish reverseness in my path
A simple gesture, a simple laugh
But I'm evil, dirty, and mean
Profound thoughts pump through my bloodstream
Frightened, huh, you should be
Who am I? I'm Johnny B.
[Verse 6]
Johnny B., how much there is to see
Just open your eyes and listen to me
Straight ahead, a green light turns to red
Oh, why can't you see? Oh, Johnny B.
Johnny B., how much there is to see
Just open your eyes and listen to me
Straight ahead, a green light turns to red
Oh, why can't you see? Oh, Johnny B.
[Verse 7]
Here we go, here we go, now check the flow
Here we go, Johnny B. is in control
Here we go, here we go, now check the flow
Here we go, Johnny B. is in control
Here we go, here we go, now check the flow
Here we go, Johnny B. is in control
Here we go, here we go, now check the flow
Here we go, Johnny B. is in control (Johnny B.)
[Verse 8]
Let me tell you about Johnny B. (Uh)
That's right, uh, come on, uh (Ay)
[Verse 9]
It's a sleepless night, he's callin' your name
It's a lonely ride, I know how you saw him
Again and again , he's chasin' his dreams
Yeah, Johnny, my friend, it's not what it seems
[Verse 10]
Johnny B., how much there is to see
Just open your eyes and listen to me
Straight ahead, a green light turns to red
Oh, why can't you see? Oh, Johnny B.
Johnny B., how much there is to see
Just open your eyes and listen to me
Straight ahead, a green light turns to red
Oh, why can't you see? Oh, Johnny B.
