hard way

You see I'm all out of money, I'm down on my knees just to pray

If I hadn't learned things the hard way, I wouldn't be begging today

So please sir, need some of your cash, I know you got it

Or better, a place I can stay

'Cause I'm lost, I feel lost

Spiritual miracle seeing faces on the wall

Each one's saying something hard to listen to them all

Pardon my mistakes, I was under the impression

That no matter which ones I made I'd still teaching myself a lesson

But I forgot the rule for breaking all the rules

Don't let it become a habit that's the lifestyle I choose

And apparently, I made that a habit

No happy, just sadness, I want it, don't have it

You see I'm all out of money, I'm down on my knees just to pray

If I hadn't learned things the hard way, I wouldn't be begging today

So please sir, need some of your cash, I know you got it

Or better, a place I can stay

'Cause I'm lost, I feel lost

These empty pleasures got me feeling down, down, down, down, down low, low, low

But bottle service on the rooftop was nice

Money in ice, word of advice, it don't float

I know, I know, I know, I know that I was wrong to be waiting for you

But ignorance is still worse than the truth

So here's my own warning to you

You see I'm all out of money, I'm down on my knees just to pray

If I hadn't learned things the hard way, I wouldn't be begging today

So please sir, need some of your cash, I know you got it

Or better, a place I can stay

'Cause I'm lost, I feel lost
