Evelyn Lyrics - Singles - Scapegoat Wax

I want you all to celebrate 

I had to shed my beat up skin 

I've been waiting for this day 

I choose my weapon and begin 

I had to get out of here for my Evelyn 

(My Evelyn) 

Seems like forever 

(Uh huh) 

I've been struggling with rhymes 

I can't pretend that it don't affect me 

Check me in the darkest pitch of night 

Ooh, it keeps me up, I say my goodbye 

I can't guess how many 

(No, no, no) 

Will claim that they knew me so well 

Seems like I've been here 

Stayed here, right here 

But there's no way for me to tell 

Ooh, I heard the familiar word, my goodbye 

I want you all to have a drink 

It was nothing that you said 

I had all kinds of time to think 

My heart convinced my empty head 

I had to get out of here for my Evelyn 

(My Evelyn) 

Can't live my life as a blurry mirage 

Thought barrage made my head a psychological garage 

And she's out there, I love her to death 

The deepest breath ain't deep enough 

To see the thoughts that she can put in my head 

Mental exposure, things I said, at 2 am, I know it's over 

I know my brother loved his homie Ben 

So your turn, man, this I let you flow on one more beat 

I make it shine and I'll see you when I live on your street 

This is my path now, I had to split town and do it fast now 

I passed out and woke up with a whole new rationale 

I kept it to myself, you couldn't accept it 

So I left it alone and let it roll on my records 

These are the airwaves of Evelyn 

See, everything ends, it just takes a little longer 

Don't forget I'm your friend 

And I'll remember everything live, I'm no pretender 

I know she's getting every single message that I send her 

I want you all to celebrate 

I had to shed my beat up skin 

I've been waiting for this day 

I choose my weapon and begin 

I had to get out of here for my Evelyn 

(My Evelyn) 

It seems like forever 

(Ooh, ooh, ooh) 

I've had trouble on my soul 

I made a promise this time to let my words speak 

Let them take control 

Ooh, I don't want to starve no more, my goodbye 

I want you all to have a drink 

It was nothing that you said 

I had all kinds of time to think 

My heart convinced my empty head 

I had to get out of here for my Evelyn 

(My Evelyn)
