Eviction Notice Songtext

von Pigeon John

Woke up in the morning and yo what did I see?
Eviction notice on the floor looking at me
Fell back onto the bed and into insanity
Cuz I been losin' my job since the age of 16

Let me tell it now
Let me tell you how life is, sho'
Most of my life yo
I been po'
Workin' ever since 16 years old
Life is a game but I wanna fold
If I want mo'
Then I gotta sow
If I don't sow then I turn cold

Brought up in the way'n
Try to pretend
That everything is dandy but
You know, you know
Rather be full of clarity
Than runnin' and rippin' with no sense of sincerity

Cuz, cuz with no heart things don't last
Tryin' to be cool with my bus pass
Cuz I know things is gonna work out
Gimme a shout
This too will pass

Whoaaaaah
Come on, sing the song now
When you're wondering how
When your phone line gets cut off
Come on and sing
Come on, come on sing the song now
When your car breaks down
When your girlfriend leaves you
Come on and sing

Losing my passion and friends over record contracts
Wanna be so young again
Wish to take it all back
Two sweaty little niggies rapping over bomb tracks
And then get hungry so we all go Taco Bell wrap
But now all we do is work to the bone
Getting kinda older now it's showin'
Bills to be paid and still don't own
Flat broke still got a cell phone
Sleepin' on a couch, don't got a home
Wanna be a rap star sittin' on chrome

But I know in time things gonna change and rearrange
And I'm gonna show ‘em

Been through this long before
Sittin' knockin' waitin' at the same old door
But I gotta go, ain't waitin no mo'
If the door ain't open break through the window
New breed to be, gonna take it off
For the kingdom when the bells sing this song

Whoaaaaah
Sing the song now
When you're wonderin' how
When your phone line gets cut off
Come on and sing
Come on, come on sing the song, boy
When your car breaks down
And your girl straight leaves you

Come on and sing (x4)

Wake up, brand new day here
On my way dear, worry out the door (x4)

Whoaaaaah
Come on sing the song now
When you're wonderin' how
When your phone gets cut off
Come on and sing
Come on, come on sing the song, girl
When your car breaks down
When your boyfriend leaves you
Come on and just call me
Yeah!
