Edge Of Sanity Lyrics - Kool G. Rap & Dj Polo

I'm on the verge of commitin murder 

My girl is gettin on my last nerve and I don't wanna hurt her 

She wants me to get a job 

I get harassed cause I'm laying on my ass like a big slob 

But everywhere I go, I get rejected 

They won't hire a motherfucker with a jail record 

So the least I could do, is look presentable 

But I'm labelled by the city as a criminal 

They won't give me no slack Jack 

And I got one strike against me already because my skin is black 

See I'm irrelevant to Help Wanted signs 

And they wonder why niggaz commit crimes 

My girl pays the rent gas and light 

Goes to class at days and works at night 

I'm trying to get some money I can hand to her 

But I ain't with bein a motherfuckin janitor 

Plus I got my little nigga 

And I'm tryin my best to be the right kind of father figure 

But my hands is startin to shake 

I'm tryin to hold my head because I'm reachin for the thirty-eight 

I pick it up, man fuckit 

I gotta go out and hit the street and get some ducats 

Lookin for somethin to hit 

I throw on my hood, cause I'm about to do some stupid shit 

I step in the Seven-Eleven 

Come fast with the cash or get your ass sent to heaven 

He must hit the alarm, cause I'm perspirin 

cause now I'm hearin motherfuckin sirens 

I tried to run out, three thousand decent 

Next thing I know, I'm sittin in a fuckin precinct 

for tryin to feed a family 

I need rubber balls, cause I'm fallin off the edge of sanity

What a fucked up night 

And I'm mad because the cop put on the handcuffs too fuckin tight 

Central Bookin is where they sent me 

So they could take a couple of pictures after they fingerprint me 

Then they put me in a cell 

And it was all full of niggaz that was dirty and stinkin as hell 

Four hours passed already, so now I'm yawnin 

And I'm hopin to see the judge in the mornin 

Finally they call my name and I get up with speed 

to appear before the judge, and make a plead 

I saw the judge, he was a brother 

He said, "How do you plead?" I said, "Not guilty, motherfucker!" 

Then I got kicked out of court, sent to the Island 

where they got all of these young brothers wildin 

And all I seen was teenagers 

And brothers just slicin one another with straight razors 

I saw this nigga, he was stone tall 

I said, "Yo, I gotta make this motherfuckin phone call" 

He said, "These whores are mine, and you ain't widdit" 

and put his face all up in mine, so I hit it 

C.O.'s came, niggaz started to zing 

Now I gotta do about three days in the bank 

I did my time and now I'm back from my vacation 

Right on track, they put me back in populations 

I got dressed, and hit the mess hall 

Then when I came back, FINALLY I got to make my phone call 

My girl is bringin out the man in me 

Cause she's yellin and shit, while I'm hangin on the edge of sanity

I'm sittin Up North, and doin three to nine 

And it feels like my whole life is bein left behind 

I'm goin crazy in this place 

And I'm countin the days, cause I'm about to be a mental case 

My little son is gettin bigger 

And he picked up the phone one day and thought I was some other nigga 

Yeah that bitch is tryin to play me like a sucker 

Cause on the down and low I heard another nigga fucked her 

Now homicide is on my mind 

for knowin that this bitch is at home, screwin while I'm doin time 

And the nigga that's hittin the skins 

is a bold motherfucker cause he's one of my own friends 

But that's alright cause I got somethin for they asses 

And when I see him I'ma smash his fuckin glasses 

Livin in hell but now my blood is gettin cold 

Two months later, I got released on parole 

So now I'm rollin colder than a blizzard 

I got some iron from my man and went to pay the stupid bitch a visit 

I'm ringin the bell like hell 

Oh nobody's home huh? So I kicked it til the shit fell 

Stepped in the house with my finger on the trigger 

Butter ass nigga stuttered, "Wha-wha-what's up nigga?" 

My bitch was scared, cause she knew that I was steamin 

She ran her ass to the back and started screamin 

*one shot fired* to the body *two shots fired* to the head 

*one shot fired* put the barrel in his mouth, makin sure he's dead 

And the police ain't cannin me 

inside a cell, cause I just fell off the edge of sanity
