Royce da 5'9" - Cocaine lyrics

So low, door is closed
Trust is broke, words got choked
In my throat, can't let go
Of my high hopes, my high hopes
My high hopes (Say what?)

Papa came home from another day of hard
Work and handed me his key
Told me "Go look in the car"
So I went out there to look for
What he asked me to get
I was checkin' all the seats but
The only thing I saw
Was a bag of cocaine (Say what?)
Uh, Papa was too solid
He ain't never tell a lie
I went in to tell him 'bout it, he said "Oh
That must be Guy"
He worked with me at the job"
I said "Oh" and walked away
He said "Oh, before you go
Make sure you don't tell your ma'
'Bout the cocaine" (Say what?)
Uh, me and little homie
We was walkin' to the store
It was right there on the corner and
We seen a guy that's homeless
He was wrapped up in a blanket
He was lookin' really cold
Then he asked us for some change and
He asked us if we know
Who had the cocaine (Say what?) cocaine

I'm losin' my mind, trying to figure out
How did I inherit so much pain
I drink a lot of alcohol
Problems with the law
Would I have done better or the same
If Daddy never tried cocaine? Uh
If Daddy never tried cocaine
Cocaine, uh (Say what?)

(In my throat)
So my father's only next logical step
Was to go to rehab (Can't let go)
And that's exactly what he did
(Of my high hopes)
He went to rehab and got completely clean
Hasn't done a drug in over twenty years
(My high hopes) he did that for himself but
(My high hopes)
He did that because he didn't want to lose us
Whew, strong man

Uh, now let's talk about how
Much I respect my pop
He's been through so much in life
We ain't never had a lot
We just had each other's back
That was really all we need
Pop', I love you unconditional and
Thanks for loving me more than cocaine
My father chose me over cocaine cocaine, uh
I'm proud to say that I'm an
Addict who inherit's your pain
Trust is broke words got choked
In my throat
