ied through yo

ur teeth
              
For that fuck

 capped
           
And to the fan

s, I'll never 

let you down a

gain, I'm back
  
I promise to n

ever go back o

n that promise

, in fact
         
Let's be hones

t, that last R

elapse CD was 

"ehhhh"
        
Perhaps I ran 

them accents i

nto the ground

       
Relax, I ain't

 going back to

 that now
              
All I'm tryna 


say is get bac

k, click-clack

 BLAOW
              
Cause I ain't 

        
playin' around

, it's a game 

called circle 

and I don't kn

ow how

I'm way too up

 to back down
              
But I think I'

  
m still tryna 

figure this cr

ap out
              
Thought I had 

          
it mapped out 

but I guess I 

didn't
              
This fucking b

              
lack cloud sti

   
ll follows me 

around, but it

's time to exo

rcise these de

mons
            
These motherfu

ckers are doin

g jumping jack

[Bridge]

              
And I just can

        
't keep living

 this way
             
So starting to

              
day, I'm break

[Verse]

            
It was my deci

sion to get cl

for me
        
Admittedly I p

robably did it

 subliminally 

for you
   
So I could com

And don't even

 realise what 

you did, belie

 middle

Finger, I thin

k I got a tear

 in my eye, I 

feel like
    
The king of, m

y world, hater

s can make lik

Stingers, and 

drop dead, no 

more bee fling

ers

        
No more drama 

from now on, I

 promise to fo

cus soley
   
On handling my

 responsibilit

So I solemnly 

swear to alway

s treat this r

oof like my da

ughters
    
And raise it, 

you couldn't l

ift a single s

hingle on it
          
Cause the way 

I feel, I'm st

rong enough to

 go to the clu

b
     
Or a corner pu

b and lift the

 whole liquor 

counter up
          
Cause I'm rais

ing the bar, I

'd shoot for t

But I'm too bu
