Rehab - This I Know lyrics
[Rehab - This I Know lyrics]
Dagnabbit I got the same bad habit's
My dad had as a lad
I get mad at myself sittin in
The back of a cab
Feelin wack as a whip on the back
Of a slave on a ship
Back in the days at times waking
Up is slap in the face
But the passion of one whose
Flesh was torn away by the cat of 9 tails an
Pierced by one spear and 3 nails
Has saved my soul but there's
Still times I get
Weak and there's still times I get beat
And sometimes i write rhymes way to ill to
Repeat and I don't want
To be another hypocrite on a beat
But sometimes when
The sun shines I wish I could
Sleep it away but today
I woke up with some strength
Counted a couple of
Blessings and stepped out in the street
And the sweet smell of victory put my mind
At ease and the breeze
Told the tree's to whisper something to me
And they told me don't worry I told the
Devil u was with me
Jesus loves me this I know
For the bible tells me so
Little ones to him belong
They are weak but he is strong
Those who trespass allow me to
Forgive I wasn't dealt
The hand they got lives they got to live
Besides they don't answer to me I'm not
You and we've all made
Mistakes and known not what to do
It's true see if I
Hurt you that hurts me I'm
Not entitled to the lord's tender mercy
Till I drop down on my knee's and say
Please put me into your solution
And free me of this disease
I won't make it one more step unless u take
This load I tote with my
Soul I'll just break and
Won't wait one second longer than
I must or bond with
Anyone stronger than this trust so
The only thing to do is lean on you and not
Be lead astray by what the demun do
Jesus loves me this I know
For the bible tells me so
Little ones to him belong
They are weak but he is strong
Don't try to be the best man
Be the best that u can
Cause number 1 ain't nothing but
The opinion of man and
Man loves death, hate, crime, and pain
His kids are into theft, long lines of cane
Insanity profanity
Ecstasy and blasphemy but as for
Me I'm just tryin to
Maintain and it's a damn shame
Our brains have been
Trained to crazy and lazy scared
To make change in
These hard times I try to be
A role model but I ain't
Gonna lie y'all I still battle
The bottle and that's my biggest struggle
I ain't the one to follow sometimes
I get the urge to leave a 12 pack hollow
Just writing
Some inner-sentiments ain't none of
Us innocent from
Mansions to tenements whether male
Or feminine all of us are guilty of showing
A little ignorance being
Resentful, envious, and belligerent
One day maybe we
Can figure it out but till then
I guess I'll just pull
This cigarette out pull up a
Chair and open a brew
Sit down on the porch and do what I do
Jesus loves me this I know
For the bible tells me so
Little ones to him belong
They are weak but he is strong
My dad had as a lad
I get mad at myself sittin in
The back of a cab
Feelin wack as a whip on the back
Of a slave on a ship
Back in the days at times waking
Up is slap in the face
But the passion of one whose
Flesh was torn away by the cat of 9 tails an
Pierced by one spear and 3 nails
Has saved my soul but there's

Weak and there's still times I get beat
And sometimes i write rhymes way to ill to
