[Hook]
I'm dining alone tonight, table for one --table for one, table for one
I'm dining alone tonight, table for one --table for one
[Verse 1]
Born alone, crawled alone, walked alone
Mumbled to myself, learned to talk on my own
Got knocked out, learned to fight on my own
It don't take a genius, to see that I'm all alone
Like a metronome, right before the drums
But more like Jessie Owens right before he runs
Or like a rooster co*k-a-doodle right before the sun
My uzi weighs a ton, feeling like the only one left from this dead era
Stare into the mirror, scream
My reflection says you know they can't hear ya'
It's hard not to let the voices in your head steer ya'
The wrong way will let the bad vibes get near ya'
That's why I stay clear of, away from where the fools sit
Don't want to hear no nonsense, don't want to hear no bullsh**
Or no hating, or no bellyaching
You must got me mistaken
Table for one
[Hook]
[Verse 2]
This being broke, nightmare - paradise
Stared into her eyes, when we share the slice
In the hotspots, I ain't look at her twice
Stared at my plate, thinking how could I escape
But when I looked up, she had another face
When I looked around, we in another place
We ain't even eating, it ain't even her
Last five years, it's all been a blur
All the arguing, and all the tears
Tell me, what type of girl still be here
She used to say I work too much, and she had to leave me
Because it hurt too much, you know
It hurt to eat alone, sleep alone
Laying on the couch watching TV alone
She said that she might as well be alone
Wrote me a letter, said I'm leaving home
[Hook]
