Behind Bars Lyrics - Singles - Diabolic

I wake up to Vodka Tonic, child support, lots of chronic 

Hungover, blunts rolled up, just tryin' not to vomit 

The God's honest truth, I cut my baby mama loose 

'Cause the bitch got rotten roots and made me wanna cock and shoot 

Cops in hot pursuit, just doin' what I gotta do 

I'm out makin' product moves, she claims that I'm knockin' boots 

But how the fuck's my daughter gon be proud of papa deux if daddy's broke, got no loot, can't afford to cop her shoes? 

That's not how fathers do, I make sure my daughter eats 

Lock the door before she sleeps, try to keep her off the streets 

Her mama tortures me, of course I'm forced to deal with it 

All this drama brought to me like I'm some sort of meal ticket 

I feel sickness, nauseated by the hunger pains 

Ain't tryin' to run the game, I want peace, fuck the fame 

What's-her-name got my mother lookin' at her son ashamed 

So I'm drinkin', thinkin' back, like when's it all gonna change? 

Life ain't shit but liquor and splittin' L's 

Closed off to the outside world in a shell 

Behind bars, feelin' more like I'm in a shell 

Attitude's like, I don't give a fuck, give 'em hell (x2) 

I'm an alcoholic pot-smoker, chances are I'm not sober 

But I don't make my seed deal with the chip on her pop's shoulder 

I never got over feelin' like I been forsaken 

Broke, livin' in this basement, at a loss for inspiration 

Comitting sins of Satan just to fill these dinner plates and 

Have some dough to finish makin' a lyin' thief's vindication 

Been as patient as I can, now I'm finished waitin' 

I'm a bring the winds of change, for some kind of simulation 

My innovation could have got me major label love 

But I can't lie, instead of swallowin' my pride I taste my blood 

The weight above from this paper left my shoulders crushed 

Like I'm in a cobra clutch, stuck bein' broke as fuck 

My wifey now for real, claims I never open up 

Why you always goin' buck-wild like you smokin' dust? 

I don't know enough to answer, I apologize 

I'm just stoppin' by to tell you 'fore I take this shot and hide 

Life ain't shit but liquor and splittin' L's 

Closed off to the outside world in a shell 

Behind bars, feelin' more like I'm in a shell 

Attitude's like, I don't give a fuck, give 'em hell (x2) 

I sold drugs and took a few 

All my friends took 'em too 

Guzzlin' that wicked brew 

Ain't shit I'm shook to do 

Wifey said, think of how yo mom will look at you 

Now I'm apologizing to her for the shit I put her through 

Used to think there were some people I just couldn't lose 

Burn a bridge, watch, then turn this shit, rebuild, good as new 

That wouldn't prove to be true, the more I recollect 

I was wrong but better yet, greedy for that treasure chest 

Left for dead, the pressure gets to me to eat a meal 

Makes it hard to keep it real, all I do is cheat and steal 

What I see and feel is bottled up like ketamine 

Replaced by dime and nickel schemes 

Balanced on a triple beam 

Every relationship I had got blown to smithereens 

Dried my eyes while in between 

Wiped them out like Mr. Clean 

I lived a dream, thinkin' I'd wake up and save the day 

That's all I came to say, now I'm a drink the pain away 

Life ain't shit but liquor and splittin' L's 

Closed off to the outside world in a shell 

Behind bars, feelin' more like I'm in a shell 

Attitude's like, I don't give a fuck, give 'em hell (x4)
