Same Asshole

Forgive me I've been drinking

Back-roadin' and thinking

Remember when the band played on while the ship sinking

No matter what I do there's no escaping my past

I do everything I can and it keeps chasing my ass

I know my karma is constant for all the hearts that I've broke

Knowing I'll never be forgiven that shit bothers my soul

When it's thrown up in my face man that shit fucks up my day

No matter what I do I feel I'm only judged by mistakes

Even if the good outweighs it by a million to one

They still gon' hate me for the single fucking thing that I done

Even if the good outweighs it by a million to one

They still gon' hate me for the single fucking thing that I done

I try not to think of hard times

I try hard to let the past go

I thank God that I'm a changed man

But some days I'm that same asshole

The same old me the same back road

A couple of crosses and a black rose

Singing the same old sad song

I must admit I'm infatuated with sad clowns

I guess they help me better understand my Dad now

Those that entertain at the expense of pain

Those that dance in the rain instead of just complain

My brother always said I was ahead of the game even before the fucking money hit the jealousy came

Put it all on the line there's no regrets in this shit

I admit besides the blessings there was lessons in it

They say life is a marathon tighten up cause you gotta run

I know that the dollar spends as fast as the dollar comes

Why these other rap dudes in the strip club with a lot of ones

I'm just trying to buy a crib and start my kids a college fund for-real

I try not to think of hard times

I try hard to let the past go

I thank God that I'm a changed man

But some days I'm that same asshole

The same old me the same back road

A couple of crosses and a black rose

Singing the same old sad songs

Can I be real for a minute

Release this passion within

My fat ass gettin bigger

I need to get back to the gym

I'm lookin at myself like how the fuck this happened again

Baby mama got out of jail and she done relapsed again

I swear I'm tellin y'all the truth

There's so much shit in the air

My father got leukemia

He just left critical care

Not to mention mama's got dementia

Man she's always feelin sick

I try to help em pay the rent

But shes unhappy as it gets

I cannot complain because my daughter's doin great

Plus this music shit's a dream

What the fuck you think it ain't

But please make no mistake

Baby after the show

I'm all alone

On this road

Headin back to my home

I try not to think of hard times

And I try hard to let the past go

I thank God that I'm a changed man

But some days I'm that same asshole

The same old me the same back roads

A couple of crosses and a black rose

Singin the same old sad songs
