Seers Pupil - Pretty Penny lyrics

[Verse 1: Seers] Bum on the curb tried to ask me for a cent, I was in the car blasting this piano riff He said something like You know man, I didn't always look like this, matter fact I even had nice things, my appearance might be a bit frightening Because of that most despise me but Even when I was a young casanova, never good lookin' but I had mi casa and a 'nova It was perfect, for me and my family of three Had a lot goin' for me if I'da stayed on my feet Souls planted in the ground like the cemetery Back to my story I was young and newly wed and married To my highschool sweetheart, two years out Both devout, Christians yeah we thought, True love is what we got There I was hitched, tied the knot, age 20 Thought I had nothing to lose until the world took it from me [Excerpt 1: Seers] And he looked up, I don't even think he knew I was listening He said "You care If I keep going or you want me to leave?" It's not every day someone will listen to me speak Society has taught you there's nothing for free I don't want a pretty penny, that's a pretty petty penny But a penny for your thoughts is plenty enough money for me It's how I pay for my therapy So I didn't know what to do, I was like yo you wanna get something to eat Seemed like a nice dude, non-threatening, so he went on.. [Verse 2] I was in college, it was my junior year, studying to be an engineer Side job and future career, Scouts honor Could've swore what I endured would help prepare Myself did I mention my name is Isaac Sorry dude I skipped some things, and my wife's named Eliza She was 8 months pregnant with my little boy Cyrus So the sight is, our tiny apartment off campus my wife is Ampin' throwin tantrums but I knew it was the hormones I ain't panic she can't stand it when I try to calm her down so I just sat there Silent, she claims I'm always out When she knows that I'm at my cla**es then to work then back to the house I'm taking hit after hit, punch after punch, there's venom packed in every syllable Just the thought is poisonous, she said well what I sat there stunned She said I'm done like she always does, I tried to say I love you babe But she was already outside taking off By the time I got to the door she started my car then took it out of park Shadows came over my future, and all I could do was watch Wish I could ask that truck driver the reason he couldn't stop I was right there on the spot No more picnics for Isaac because I eat in the dark Never questioned God's existence till he tore up my heart The only question I got, is if you think that's wrong or not
