Save My Life

Today isn't yesterday, if only it was ahead 14 maybe 11 give or take a few less month's my life can begin to breathe again. Not watching for shadows coming out the corner of my eye, lay my head down with closing my eyes. Not going to nowhere, that's the truth no lie. I can't even relax my back let alone someone seems everyone in our past from today which you might as well always live the ongoing repeating yesterday. Over on the right side cheaters, liar's, busters, leaving while kicking you down. On the left back stabbers, parasites A name The Dope Game It's up to you to spot them out It's hard my girl had to read your letter saying this to me Since my man and you are together are together locked up in the Nevada State penitentiary Yesterday ends this the light switching onto black maybe once in awhile white to the world The Dope Game you call it for me today These back stabbers, parasites, cheaters, liar's stealing to where you have no life while promising you yes I'll stay alive The day you walk away from the Nevada state Penitentiary The night I saw you last, leaving to get your hustle on, your dogs following close behind June 4this the date I'll never forget, your world became the beginning of your judgment day The world I refused to except This you always knew Now thrown in a world, hustle, game The day I couldn't choose Let alone lie to you Now you know a name The Dope Game Life without security Now I tasted the salted wound Learn to survive from the advice you preached to me passing you by on video 92 times to be exact yes I'm still as live.
