Don't even try to save me tonight But here I go 'Cause I don't know No I don't know I'll stay away from This pain I came from Can't run away from What's been said and done With all these days gone

Don't tell a lie on me I won't tell the truth 'bout you The legendary status of a hip-hop rhyme savior Thirty millions later, my future favors Travel round the atlas in this spaceship candy-coated My day shift's been devoted to fuckin' up bundles of

I sit and cry and sing the blues Oh, no one to depend on Oh, I've got no one to have fun with Since my baby's love had been done with Well, I don't know what to do Well, no one to call me sweet names And my heart is filled with pain Oh, I only think of
