KEY OF (C) TIME 445
4 BAR INTRO

I WAS JUST
A NORMAL GUY

LIFE WAS JUST
A NINE TO FIVE
WITH BILLS AND
PRESSURE
PILED UP TO THE SKY

SHE NEVER ASKED
SHE KNEW I'D BEEN
HANGIN' WITH
MY WILDER FRIEND
LOUKIM FOR SOME
OTHER WAY TO FLY

g

AND THREE DAYS
STRAIGHT
WAS NO BIG FEAT
TO GET BY ON
NO FOOD 0R SLEEP

g

AND CRAZY
WAS BECOMIN'

MY NEW NORM

I'D PASS OUT ON
THE BEDROOM FLOOR
AND SLEEP
RIGHT THROUGH
THE CALM
BEFORE THE STORM

MY LIFE WAS JUST
AN OLD ROUTINE
EVERY DAY
THE SAME DAMN THING
I COULDN'T EVEN TELL
I WAS ALIVE

I TELL YOU
THE HIGH COST
OF LIVIN'

AIN'T NOTHIN' LIKE
THE COST OF
LIVIN' HIGH

THAT SOUTHERN

BAPTIST
PARKIN' LOT

WAS WHERE I'D GO
TO SMOKE MY POT
AND SIT THERE
IN MY PICKUP TRUCK
AND PRAY

AND STARIN' AT
THAT GIANT CROSS
JUST REMINDED ME

THAT I WAS LOST
AND IT JUST NEVER
SEEMED T0 POINT
THE WAY

AS SOON AS JESUS
TURNED HIS BACK
I'D FIND MY WAY
ACROSS THE TRACK
LUDKIN' JUST TO SCORE
ANOTHER DEAL

WITH MY BACK AGAINST
THAT DAMN EIGHT BALL
I DIDN'T HAVE
TO THINK OR TALK
OR FEEL

MY LIFE WAS JUST
AN OLD ROUTINE
EVERY DAY
THE SAME DAMN THING
I COULDN'T EVEN TELL
I WAS ALIVE

I TELL YOU
THE HIGH COST
OF LIVIN'

AIN'T NOTHIN' LIKE
THE COST OF
LIVIN' HIGH

I HAD A JOB
AND A PIECE OF LAND
MY SWEET WIFE
WAS MY BEST FRIEND
BUT I TRADED THAT
FOR CUCAINE
AND A WHORE

WITH MY NEWFOUND
SOBRIETY
I'VE GOT THE TIME
TO SIT AND THINK
OF ALL THE THINGS
I HAD
AND THREW AWAY

THIS PRISON
IS MUCH COLDER
THAN THAT ONE

THAT I WAS

LOCKED UP IN
JUST YESTERDAY

g

MY LIFE IS JUST AN
OLD ROUTINE
EVERY DAY
THE SAME DAMN THING
HELL I CAN'T EVEN
TELL IF I'M ALIVE

I TELL YOU
THE HIGH COST
OF LIVIN'

AIN'T NOTHIN' LIKE
THE COST OF
LIVIN' HIGH

I TELL YOU
THE HIGH COST

OF LIVIN'
IT AIN'T NOTHIN'
LIKE THE COST
OF LIVIN' HIGH

JUST LEAVE
THAT STUFF ALONE
