A.W.O.L.

It was a chilly Georgia Monday morning

Space heater tappin' out, there goes my saving grace

A danger to myself, I'm my worst opponent

So playin' safe is pointless, just join me if you jointless

I coin shit while I'm coinless, I see shit 'cause I'm D-list

It's funny how the ones that lived to kill us died to keep us

Wow, wow, wowzers, up, I'll cut y'all downers, fuckin' up y'all browsers

Nothin' but down-southers and caged lovers

So all you first timers be prepared to change covers

Bloody blankets all I made while fuck **** was crankin' yanks

We was young and dumb, bustin' Reebok, dicky suit thuggin'

Just a zone-four nerd, with some zone-one cousins

And a Northside bitch that you fuckin'

But can't love her 'cause her father hates you

'Cause of problems he got with her mother

And your mind still kinda childish but you pushin' six-feet

So mommy's daddy put the shotty to your face at sixteen

And as a child you worshipped him because of Killer Mike's reaction

CD player at the bus stop, candy paint passin'

I never been a pacifist, too far from the Pacific

Live in alternate dimensions I created as a child

I'm often way too lost in my schizophrenic thoughts

Visit mama and my faith is reinstated by her smile

But since I'm a nineties baby, I'm automatically crazy

I'm callin' audible plays on the daily just to survive

I got a tribe of little brothers in the hood that I inspire

Light the fire when they look into my eyes

And when they ask me where I been at?

I just be like over there, 'cause when I'm high as fuck all one

With my headphones on, I don't care

And when they ask me where I been at?

I just be like over there, 'cause when I'm high as fuck in my zone

With my headphones on, I don't care

Same old lost boys lookin' for a home, startin' fires under viaducts

Now I ain't made that much, just some angel dust

A couple of zany fucks with the lay up ducks

Caught up on the rainy day of course

Colder than them days chasin' after the drinking gourd

Make it on my work and make the world agreed no court

Never catch me lyin' on my back, too much like casket doors

Never catch me lyin', my daddy told me who dat was for

Pockets swollen, still on my stomach lyin' on grandma's floor's

Dodging all you stand-by whores and we ain't sayin' much

Man that's that lovely noise, carvin' out my head the space to think

Man that's that lovely boy

I stashed some pres in a bottle and chucked it overboard

I got to clock in fifteen days and nights, till I can't roll no more

Till that thing hit the shore, till I'm Siamese with the force

Till if I really wanted I could get Siamese with the Porsche

But what I really want is, my ****, for **** to live long

And I pray on the daily, my nig, for **** who do me wrong

'Cause we all know what happens when **** can't get along

Before the opposite we gotta slap our thinkers on

Ali, Ali, show me a box that I ain't dookie on

Part lucid, part MC, part mystery shit to be solved

Battle through the fog, 110 through the smog

3:10 in the night, I'm screenin' booty calls

I'm plastic, going through her drawers, tryna feel withdrawals

They fiendin' our demise shine, but we gon' do with y'all?

And when they ask me where I been at?

(I just be like over there, cause when I'm high as fuck all alone)

(With my headphones on, I don't care)

(And when they ask me where I been at?)

(I just be like over there, cause when I'm high as fuck in my zone)

(With my headphones on, I don't care)

And when they ask me where I been at?

I just be like over there, 'cause when I'm high as fuck all one

With my headphones on, I don't care

And when they ask me where I been at?

I just be like over there, 'cause when I'm high as fuck in my zone

With my headphones on, I don't care

(Where I been at?)

(Over there)

(Where I been at?)

(Over there)
