Village Slum

Ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba (ba-ba, ba-ba-ba) Ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba (yeah) I been tryna drink less But I feel like when I drink, I'm at my best Not a care in the world, no stress Always give the world my everything and no less I wake up seven days a week and get the job done You know I'm always there for my wife and my son And at the end of the day, I love to pour one More like two, but occasionally three and it scares me Not because I have a problem I'm the type of person, if there's an issue, then I'ma solve 'em It's more like seeing how this shit has destroyed life Uh, I look at my mom, I look at my dad And see how drugs and alcohol took away everything they had And it makes me sad, I found the balance, but I feel bad I didn't drink 'til I was 27, then I did from then And every time I take a sip, I'm scared that I'll become them We went to Alcoholics Anonymous mostly twice a week I was just a little boy, but listened when people would speak Prostitutes, preachers, substitute teachers Cops and criminals, they all gave speeches About this addiction and it filled me with conviction Keep comin' back, boy, it works if you work it And I did, growin' up, I was a AA kid I never wanted to make the mistakes that they did And sometimes when I sip, you know, I feel survivor's guilt But I know that what I'm drinkin' could destroy all that I built So I tread lightly, this shit leaves people dead nightly Alcoholic, well, it's in my blood, so I might be Drug addict, well, it's in my genes, so I might be But I don't use that shit to escape I deal with my problems head on to this day Addiction to substance, it was my fate, but I broke the cycle Lost on a lonely road Carrying such a heavy load Lost on a lonely road Ba, ba-ba-ba, ba-ba Ayo, damn Yo, can we roll the window down, please?
