INNER CITY STORIES

It’s just me, myself, and don’t forget I

So I keep on riding until the day I die

Because all I got is me for life

Never need any hand to hold

Even when it’s cold

Because I’ve got that restless fire deep down in my soul

 

You wanna leave my life and then come back

So screw all of you – I’ve changed since the past, ditched all that

Nowadays I just do what I wanna do

I just worry about my life – and how about you, do you?

My words say I’ve got many friends

But my brain says I have a few

How about you hop off the track, and hop off my back

Before I let my mack, go berserk and attack

Late in the night when it all goes black

When I flip the page and assemble my pack

You and your weak crew can just stay on the rack

While I step up and demonstrate you’re all just whack

You all can step back and forget the feedback

Don’t try bringin’ me down with the words you lack

Because I’ll be right there with the quick comeback

 

It’s just me, myself, and I

Ridin’ solo until the day I die

Cause all I got is just me for life

Never need anybody’s hand to hold, even when it’s cold

I’ve got that fire burnin’ deep in my soul

Don’t need no prompt to play my part

I’ve got an eternal flame burnin’ in my heart

It keeps me alive, keeps me feelin’ satisfied,

The music takes me flyin’, fills my soul every single time

 

Yeah, I’m goin’ solo on this mission

Don’t need your approval or permission

I’m hard to figure, just like a magician

So sit back and listen, just play your position

No need for any doubts or suspicion

Who you think these lyrics are dissin’?

I can do this myself, no need for transition

I’ve got the words, I earn my commission

So please don’t try to call me on my phone

I’ve learned to survive livin’ all alone

Not hangin’ my head low like I’ve been disowned

The power of my words is all I condone

I wear their fragrance just like expensive cologne

Someday I’ll carve them on my gravestone

While I’m bumpin’ underground, boppin’ to my earphones

Sayin’ hey, it’s about time I reached this milestone

I don’t need you around anymore

I’ve learned to fight all alone in this shaky civil war

Find someone else to gather flowers for

You all can make life choices like kids in a candy store

Meantime I’m living to the max until I die

Never feel hesitation, lettin’ myself fly high

Only worry for three people – me, myself, and I
