Black cloud


Nothing stays the same forever... not even me

Check this... check it

[Verse 1: Joe Budden]
Something must've changed me, niggas might defame me
But things that used to taint me, no longer seem to restrain me
Strangely I'm no longer sad, mad or angry
Shameably it pains me, feeling like it just ain't me
Mainly what do I tell all the people that thank me
Namely those who ordain me, aside from can you blame me
Motivation the game was supplying me it's no longer providing me
Jason Williams something killed whatever was driving me
Worrying less about the past more about the now
Less about what I'm going through more about the how
It's for certain it's been 30 years being fixed by the hurting
Now I'm a different person with nothing to overcome and I miss the burden
For certain got 6 figures in my sock drawer
And honestly this year I expect to make a lot more
It's hard to live without a budget when life is corrupted
In a house that's so peaceful that I'm trying to disrupt it
Scream fuck it not cause I have to but because I love it
Which makes me as fake as the puppets that I speak of disgusted
Without a paddle up shit's creek
Dig deep & see it ain't life it's just me
So be warned as I'm putting on like I'm reformed
Only so y'all can accept it as being my norm
Maybe I quit working on me, maybe I've given up
Maybe I been lying to myself maybe I give a fuck.

[Chorus:]
It's enough to make you black out, pull a mac out
Aim it at the sky while I'm running from a black cloud
Every day we playin cat and mouse as I watch it hoverin over my glass house
It's enough to make you spazz out, pull a mac out
Aim it at the sky while I'm running from a black cloud
Tired enough for me to pass out, tired of running from the black cloud.

[Verse 2: Joe Budden]
I say it loud hoping someone can hear me clearly
Trying to make my girl get it she don't know that it's very scary
But she's a nympho she could be barely near me
She'll still want the god in her I think she mary mary
The prettiest bitches they just want to service me
While niggas pretty as bitches wouldn't get a word from me
Some of you haven't heard from me some of you wouldn't mind murking me
Find that news funny likes it's straight from Ron Burgundy
These niggas ain't never seen doe
They can't dream though I bump into 'em in between shows
People say I'm emo what that really mean though
Is though the song can't breathe I actually make it seem so
I've lost loved ones because they couldn't deal with me
Cherish whoever still with me though the marriage been killed in me
Normally it's jus me and my lonely mind
Everyone storm is different so this forecast is only mine
Fans recognize my misery uplifted me
Shifted me to my epitome, guess the curse is a gift to me
Maybe it's serendipity, maybe it's weighing on me physically
Maybe I should man up and tell GOD not to solicit me
Been medicated, meditated
Sedated, hated
Character assassinated, all theses years I masqueraded
Hard headed, if it was on my mind I had to say it
Tongue on the devil's pitchfork to see how disaster tasted
Rap is fabricated, rappers are so exaggerated
Wouldn't be scared of the truth if they weren't castrated
Grab a mag, and spray it, surrounded by people that's suitable for me
That'll unconditionally love my beautiful ugly
Now lemme speak to who I cater to
Would you love me to same, if all my weeks were not favorable
Promise to maintain being unique but relatable
All while suffering from a disease that can do away with you
Poetry on the beat, spoken-word for the masses
Therapy over pro-tools, every word is on acid
Consanants on Kush, every vowel is blunted
Highly wanted this whole organization privately funded
This is bigger than the Eifel, this is alert to public
Had the coppers by our tunnels and our bridges with the rifles
Sentences meant to stifle, this is a man aching
This is the dam breaking, contraband in the making
This is panic unveiling, got potential but I never met it
He be trying to come over, it seem like I won't let it
Either he never got my invite or he jus dismissed it
But if all I'm hearing are the sounds of blackness, why am I pessimistic?
You'll never progress if you'll never try
All I ask, let every word I birth, never die
My wings spread, but when I met the sky
Weather didn't change like I thought and had me petrified.

[Chorus]

Thank you because you correct this lyrics
