Painful with pain on my side
Drainin' this Pain in my mind
Playin' in paint like I'm fine
F*ck all the waitin, it's time
I play with planes tryin' to fly
Been low but still gettin' high, I feel insane and alive
This crazy pain that's inside me
I'm gettin' tired of feelin' weak
And swimmin' deep up Shit's Creek
It got me seekin' under trees, tryin' to See where gifts be
And every time the wind blows I feel the breeze Might flip me
My papa labeled me a hippie, black gypsy
While tipsy at the bar lookin' iffy
They like, who the hell is he
Painful with pain on my side
Drainin' this pain in my mind
Playin' in paint like I'm fine, yeah
F*ck all the waitin, it's time, for me to reach my higher mind
It's odd how I beat divine
But a nigga had to climb
Thank Lord that he sent a nigga Signs
I hear the ghost of my lost ancestors from the coast
May their fire guard my heart since they died on a roast
When the soldiers from the east docked with they swords and boats
Makin' slaves out the ones that owned all the gold
Cause take to have is more than old
I wake to warm up to my soul in a world that's so cold
And tell me how this world holds
Dark parts of the soul
Yeah
Hold dark parts of the soul
Painful with pain on my side
Drainin' this pain in my mind
Playin' in paint like I'm fine, yeah
F*ck all the waitin, it's time, for me to reach my higher mind
It's odd how I beat the vine, but a nigga had to climb
Thank Lord that he sent a nigga, Signs
