count on me

Description

Spitting Promiseland live from my desk, cause I just want it out there. Lyrics So Confounded, I was highly touted. Done spun my wheel's no way around it. Walked through the valley with a shadow of death. Not a whole lot left. Wouldn't hold my breath. Goin nowhere on minumum check. No ambition, a careless wreck. Nobody knew me...wouldn't understand the pain in the heart of lonely man, kid at that, so fuck em jack, I'm on my own ain't lookin back, ice cold place to be at, writin flows to react, "fuck the world" believed that. in the zone with a bottle a jack...blacked out. Pain was bein called out. My dreams were caked in doubt, hopes forsken, cursin clouds, as it all slipped away, It wasn't me no I was proud, blind righteous and stubborn, all through and around, sound's like sure fire recipe for misery, wasn't missin me. Down and out without lift in me. guess what it was wasn't meant to be. Those battles could've led to end of the me. But there must be somethin there that even I couldn't see. through the ashes everyday I saw a little more vividly. By the grace of god probably Humilty instilled in me. I'm thankful for just this breath and the oppurtunity. (Just the chance) (HOOK) Give me one more memory I'll be on my way. Had 2 fuck my whole life up just to find my way. I never saw it comin, hind sight's twent twenty. So why am I on my second run at makin somethin outta nothin, pickin pieces off the ground again, drawin the line between fairweather and friend's. Got the world on my back, but count on me bein back. No sleep til promiseland, bet that, see ya catz. Gettin Belligerent so ignorant, kickin it, pushin limits past the end of it fifth plus/ hole in my pocket stumblin round with a cup. Like novacaine saturated numb. finger and thumb pinchin a blunt, couldn't far enough away from that worthless composition that consumed me all away from any purpose, undeservin through the surface I was wiltin in a maze, lost all sense of which way, right or wrong down was up and I was high as a bird. flyin crooked like a curve, achievment was yearn, pipe dream in a word, good for nothin's what I heard. Second glances were defferred I guess, convinced I couldn't care less. Took a match and put fire to the life that i'd built a mess. Pressin to face effects of deciscions I'd made. Battlin to make amends for divisions I'd placed. I found a man standin proud who been around the block a time or two. Soundin like a rounder too. checkin on his attitude, to keep a chip in check, I know 'm blessed now that's some soul food (I was losin my mind so consumed by my life, u could say I was blinded by a moment in time. 4x)http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_54wsvvRxoo (HOOK) Should've known I was bound to come around, once was lost but now I'm found. Took my time to make a play for the crown, tippin back up on this rockin chair feeling like a veteran, flowin slow like a simpleton but then again I got alot to prove so I'm at it again it never ends ya never really get it that's just how it is, some reflection analyzin gets ya givin again. Get my back against the wall but bitch I'm never givin in. (HOOK)
