I promise I’ll smile tomorrow If somebody’s got a smile I can borrow I promise I can make you laugh In the future when I’m finished with the past And these are supposed to be the best years of my life, my life And these are supposed to be the best years of my life, my life Worrying about your next meal I’m telling you, that is the problem with running away I’m sure you can see the appeal Especially if you can feel you have something to say The stomach will rumble for real, and humble you I hope you make friends on the road There’s many a bend in the road I been to the end of the road I’m back with a vengeance And did I mention, we live in The Age of the Bombs That Fall From the Sky? It’s all been a lie, win, lose, or draw Let’s call it a tie, we’re all gonna die I dropped out of college The knowledge I got in the world would lay it to shame I do all my girlfriend’s homework And right now, she gets straight A’s I smoke, I drink, I float, I sink And I’m alone I’m broke, I blink And everything that I been working for is gone In all the bus stations and the airports Staring at the numbers in my phone So many different floors, couches, mattresses Man, I’m wonderin’, where is home? I just want somethin’ of my own I just want somethin’ of my own I promise I’ll smile tomorrow If somebody’s got a smile I can borrow I promise I can make you laugh In the future when I’m finished with the past And these are supposed to be the best years of my life, my life And these are supposed to be the best years of my life, my life Yo, wrong side of 25 Waking up out of my slumber Finally tryin’ to see that sunny side Still in the shade, though, money-wise Tell me, why’s everything gotta be so grown up? And everyone’s walkin’ around as if somethin’ is missin’ Insistin’ they don’t know what Liberal minded, meaning I care I’m agnostic, meaning I’m scared Ex dope-fiend, meaning I’m honest I got love for you, meaning I’m there And I’m keeping my promise I’ma be laughing until the Grim Reaper’s upon us Positive energy, reading no comments Head in the clouds as I reach for the comets I smoke, I drink, I float, I sink And I’m alone I’m broke, I blink And everything that I been working for is gone In all the bus stations and the airports Staring at the numbers in my phone So many different floors, couches, mattresses Man, I’m wonderin’, where is home? I just want something of my own I just want something of my own (I just want something of my own) Just want something of my own, but I’m outta control It’s kinda hard to grab hold of somethin’ that isn’t whole Yo, I’m missin’ the feelin’ of feelin’ ambitious Sit and I wallow and b**h about sh** that I’m missin’ And wishin’ I’m rich, and like money will go And just help my condition Or solve all my problems Well, I should probably go and fix it I’m the man now, and I’mma stand out I give a f** if anybody listens Yo, used to keep it all bottled up Now I let all the bottles pop Drink to that, yeah, bottoms up Celebration, yeah, mazel-tov Did it to myself I created monsters The skeletons in my closet Are starting to gain consciousness Yeah, after all, after all Back’s up against the wall I need Adderall to be creative at all And I’m watchin’ it all as it catapults This rap sh**’s really just a cattle call Dealin’ with the bullsh**, like a matador Bein’ walked on, a doormat and all Domino effect, I’m the last to fall Someone pa** the ball, because I’m next involved With this hip hop sh**, I invested all Don’t expect decline, don’t press rewind Only go fast forward, I’m next evolved Trying to make both my parents proud Know my granddad’s starin’ down Never gonna stop, it’s apparent now I ain’t leavin’ this b**h ‘til I’m carried out I smoke, I drink, I float, I sink And I’m alone I’m broke, I blink And everything that I been working for is gone In all the bus stations and the airports Staring at the numbers in my phone So many different floors, couches, mattresses Man, I’m wonderin', where is home? I just want somethin’ of my own [x8]
