Dearly Departed Songtext
Damn, dearly departed...

Been there done did this
You got the t-shirt with my number on it
Ain't going back there's no back track
Having flash backs of that last time
Gave it all until my last dime
Did mine and they switch sides
Came home with a different mind
Ain't no open chairs here at dinner time
Had your hand out and I lent mine
You showed yours and its not the same
When it gets the grain and its such a shame
We were so cool now it's hot flame
On my back listen I'm Raymond Red
But there's no feds just me and you
Got a clear view with a back hard enough shit to lose
That imma see it through
I ain't being rude, I'm just speaking truth
If its rotten to the core gotta pull the tooth
I ain't the fool and I drank the juice
They shook my cage and then they let me loose

Did you do that for?
Monkey can't hang with gorillas
And I'm all out of bananas to feed y'all

Ooh baby, ooh baby, proceed with caution
Move baby, move baby, we're in the darkness
Ooh baby, ooh baby, why I'm so heartless
Dearly departed, dearly departed
[x2]

More money more problems no changing that
They pop in when they need you and fade to black
Talking this, talking that but let's state the facts
So many knives in my back I can make a map
I woke up and I pray for you man...and I pray for your fam
If a man gets bit for holding a snake in his hand
Who do you blame, the snake or the man
Pulling all these skeletons out of my closet
I fucked around and ended up fighting the monster
I fucked around and found out my house was haunted
I can't believe there's a confidential informant
I played up for the ones trying to down me
I gave a life right after those trying to drown me
Went to the circus with the ones trying to clown me
I didn't see all these vocals clownin' round me
I talked to Mondo in a dream, he said fuck it
We've been through worse, this ain't nothing
Made it out the streets big boy, ain't that somethin'
You can always go home where they still gon' love ya

(I talked to Mondo in a dream, he said fuck it
We've been through worse, this ain't nothing
Made it out the streets big boy, ain't that somethin', ain't that somethin', ain't that somethin'?)

Ooh baby, ooh baby, proceed with caution
Move baby, move baby, we're in the darkness
Ooh baby, ooh baby, why I'm so heartless
Dearly departed, dearly departed
[x2]

Ooh baby, ooh baby...
Ooh baby, ooh baby...
Ooh baby, ooh baby...
Dearly departed, dearly departed
