Days Gone Lyrics by DL Incognito

Someday Is Less Than a Second Away

0

[Intro]
*Drum Beat*
[Hook]
Ba-boom-ba-daa, Ba-boom-ba-daa-da-da-da [x4]
[Verse 1]
Livin' it up, or just stuck in a rut?
I look at myself in the mirror and get star-struck
I look at my face with a beard and I remember I was clean cut
Drank so many years, it's time to lose this gut
Open my wallet in the mornin' - how I spend so much?
Where did my money go? It's sus, plus got me all messed up
Felt the need to buy her a drink, got no game or guts
You're like an angel sent from Heaven, is it love or lust?
Gotta be wiser with my cash, it don't grow on trees
At the bar with strangers sayin' "next round's on me", "next round's on me", "the next round's on me"
I look to my right and my left, it's all empty seats
The foul smell of another defeat, that stench on me
When will I learn to be the man my mother said I'm down to be?;
It wasn't just a figure of speech, and this is me;
Fall a little short of my potential to be
[Hook]
Ba-boom-ba-daa, Ba-boom-ba-daa-da-da-da [x4]
[Verse 2 - ]
I feel I can't write when I'm sober
So I keep taking over, and over
No longer getting hangovers
Learn to keep my composure, my cup is never empty
I guess it's half full - evidently
Some times I feel my life's empty
That part where I envision of me
[???] a house, some kids, a wife - raise a family
Like most of my homies, we became fathers, left me lonely
So I wonder if I envy them, or do they envy me?
No responsibilities, so searching for my purpose
But nervous, that I may never find what I've been searching
I'm searching, but come up empty handed like a gold rush, I'm hurting
From my past it haunts me like a first crush
The one that got a way, I used to love, his [?bug?]
And the one I got, I just can't never love, his [?bug?]
Gotta open up my heart, if I'm to ever trust
But the story of my life comes with all of the above, included
[Hook]
Ba-boom-ba-daa, Ba-boom-ba-daa-da-da-da [x4]
[Verse 3 - D-Sisive]
Listen, I was downtown browsing
Wasting a dollar on another pair of sneakers, and an outfit, when
I should have been home filling pages
But I'd rather be spending skrilla that I haven't made yet, so
I carry Bradshaw bags, hanging from my fingers
Stroll Queen Streets, low glance in windows
Finger tip-tapping on my shoulder, turned around
Oh shit [echoed]
I haven't seen you since the school yard cyphers
Man it's been a minute
But I see you in every newspaper I flick through [echoed]
You still rhyming? [echoed]
Yeah, still trying
Damn, D- it must be nice, I suppose
So what have you been up to?
Me? [echoed]
Nothing quite like you, [echoed]
Remember Melanie from high school? [echoed]
I put a ring on it, had to snatch that [echoed]
And we had a baby girl too - lapse back [echoed]
Gimme one sec, peep the wallet size, [echoed]
Thank God she's got her mommas eyes, [echoed]
And my diploma, got me employment
The [???'s] good, and I got time to enjoy it, [echoed]
Find us at home, where the roses are thornless, [echoed]
Needed a better garden for my daughter to grow in, [echoed]
It's not much, but I love my life, [echoed]
Damn - it must be nice
It must be nice, it must be nice
[Hook]
Ba-boom-ba-daa, Ba-boom-ba-daa-da-da-da [x4]
[Outro]
*Drum Beat*
