I live my life, in my own way I've made my name, with ladies like you I'm a fine red-blooded love machine Shootin straight and talkin' mean I leave em right on cue Hey, but one thing you must realize Even when you fantasize My love is just a dead-end

For so long I have felt alone Content to live with unrest Longing faded into countless nights That buried my weary heart But you brought an end To this dead hour And meaning to a calloused life Held in your arms But too far from my heart These thoughts

What I mean is, the way I see it I'm one heartbreak closer to you With every, "So close," I'm closer to the rest of my life If it gets me to you, then it ain't wasted time (One heartbreak closer) Another, "Almost perfect" Didn't work, but totally worth it

God bless Amerika This so godless Amerika Will I die or go to jail today? Everybody wanna tell me what I need You can play a role in my life but not the lead Uh, my mind’s filled with mine fields The ashes fall, the wine spills The world stops, drops and

And I'm grindin' til I'm attacked They say "You ain't grindin' til you tired" So I'm grindin' with my eyes wide Looking to find, a way through the day A light, for the night Dear Lord, you've done took so many of my people but I'm just wonderin' why You

What am I to do with my life? (You will find it out don't worry) How am I supposed to know what's right? (You just got to do it your way) I can't help the way I feel But my life has been so overprotected There must be another way Cause I believe in

For I can't help falling in love with you Like a river flows surely to the sea Darling so it goes Some things are meant to be Take my hand, take my whole life too Wise men say only fools rush in But I can't help falling in love with you Shall I stay?

We were alone and I was singing this song for you I've been so many places in my life and time I've sung a lot of songs I've made some bad rhyme I've acted out my love in stages With ten thousand people watching But we're alone now and I'm singing this

I'ma fuck up my life Yeah right, yeah right But you know I don't mind Never give a single fuck about me Yeah, you bet she know that we ain't Never gonna be together, I see Yeah, you bet I go to see you when I'm feeling like a drum without a beat Yeah,

I don't argue like this with anyone but you We do it all the time blowing out my mind Just like a star across my sky Just like an angel off the page You have appeared to my life Feel like I'll never be the same Just like a song in my heart Just like oil
