Lyrics for New Song

I heard that payback's a mother fuckin' bitch, But I won't stress and I won't switch, And I would not take my life Glory please, my God The only thing on my mind Takes up all of my time And I said, oh Runnin' from a gun Or some brain that weighs a ton And my God, it hurts to get so low Searchin' throgh the car Cold, still searchin' through the night I think I would run, to you But I refuse to fuss and fight And God may find a reason Well I'm sure you'll find the rhyme Because it takes up nearly all my time He who stands for freedom God knows I got the number, but Maybe I just use too much I was sittin' in that bar Now I'm sittin' in that stolen car Cold, still rollin' down the boulevard Saw you with a gleam And the microphone scene Think I would run, to you But I know I won't live for me 'Cause I know, God's got the reason And the rhyme And please tell me Why it takes up all my time? I've been drinking, just like you And baby, you got something I can use Payback's a mother fuckin' blast, But I won't stress and I won't blast, And I would not take my life Glory please, my God Coming from Heaven above Takes up all of my time And I said Why must I feel like that? Runnin' from a gun And some brain that weighs a ton You know I did that line for Flava' Flave But all the DJ's do it, All the DJ's use it I would run I would switch But I wanna be the same And I know I'll find a reason 'Cause I always bust a rhyme Because it takes up nearly all my time, yeah "T," it stands for treason, The "D" here stands for dove And maybe I just use too Maybe I'm just used too Maybe I'm just used too much Boom
