I'm just sittin' in my window, throwin' down pennies to the hell below Puffin' Afgoo with my kinfolk, wishin' for one day more But once my senses burn... this one thing comes to light Life is fading, with each new day. Slippin' through my fingertips And I keep waiting to wake up one day, and life not be like this... Stuck in the gutter What's pain? What's hurt? What's life, if it's defined by dirt? What's rich, if I still die a slave? I came naked from the womb, I'll go naked to the grave Until I make it to the grave, I'm fasho I'll... Be feelin' empty like a junkie on a coke high But how are you really supposed to feel once your folk die? My only answer... get blowed 'til you're so high! I can't believe we can't see that The whole world's losin' it's mind tonight And sooner or later you gotta be that Or homie lose your mind tonight But once our senses turn, this one thing comes to light Life is fading, with each new day. Slippin' through my fingertips And I keep waiting to wake up one day, and life not be like this... Stuck in the gutter I'll burn until my time is gone Thinkin' about the times I've known Everything that I've seen Is enough to keep a madman feeling at home I ain't never let go of the Bible... But I ain't never let it's words try and change my life When living day to day is about survival Ain't a lot of thought put about living right If we're living for nothing... we might as well die forever With bullets flyin', and homeboys dyin' How can I not think about the afterlife? We fade like leaves, while all the sin that we seek Is the wind, just blowin' us away! Life is fading, with each new day. Slippin' through my fingertips And I keep waiting to wake up one day, and life not be like this... Stuck in the gutter
