Intro:
Echos of "Stupid choices, Stupid choices" 2x
Verse 1:
Now in my younger days, I used to think I was hard,
SPEEdin’ in my VEhicle, I’d drink in the CAR,
I know it sounds lame, but I still found Jane,
Fell in love, without a brain,
Now, we’d study and we’d talk whenever we’d get stressed,
We’d go everywhere toGETher like we’re bff’s,
But ONE day, at night, RIGHT before I’d SAY later,
She told me that some GUY at a party DATE raped her,
I found him on campus, I would act hella dumb,
As I REACHED IN MY BAG and COCKED back a pellet gun,
He ran off to call the cops, I need bail,
‘Cause the NEXT THING you know, I’m in the Long BEACH jail,
But WHEN I got released, I’d visit Jane, called her house,
Instead of bein’ HAppy, she was shocked I was out,
I saw a MAN there, I was sick of speakin’ calmly,
That’s when I REalized the BITCH had been CHEATin’ on me…
Hook:
Stupid choices, Stupid choices
Damn, I made a whole lot of stupid choices
Stupid choices, stupid choices
Wow, I made a whole lot of stupid choices
Stupid choices, Stupid choices
Yup, I mad a whole lot of stupid choices
Stupid choices, Stupid choices
Hmmm… I made a whole lot of stupid choices
Verse 2:
ANOTHER time, I couldn’t HANdle my dark thoughts,
And got DRUNK in my ride inside a random parking lot,
I’d start to talk loudly, and had this look,
As I would SCROLL down the numbers in my address book,
I should be glad, that not a SINGLE person picked it up,
I drink the cup, speakin’ GIBBerish, beLLIgerent, and drunk,
At THIS stage in life, I can’t afford to not care,
I’m TOO gone to see the security GUARD there,
He asked for I.D., and I asked why me?
He wrote the license plate NUMber right before I’d leave,
And then he knew, I had a few DRINKS and wasn’t sober,
I drove toward him to make him THINK I’ll run him over,
I went home, but wasn’t full of inner PEACE,
‘Cause now I’m HAND cuffed by the FULLerton police,
But this is what I get for tryna proudly hail mine,
WHO’D a thought a few drinks could be county JAIL time?
(Back to hook)
Verse 3:
StuPIDITY is followed by a clear headed period,
I get delirious before a NEAR death experience,
Ain’t the type to take it all, I never run and hide,
No wonder why, before a GREAT fall comes pride,
And some died, they never gonna reach an OLD age,
I was ALmost 6 feet and underneath from ROAD rage,
‘Cause ONE night, I got myself into another DUEL,
Some punk drove beside me thinkin’ “FUCK this fool!”
We RACED with bravado, hearin’ demons sing along,
He motioned for me to FOllow with his blinkers on,
I’m JUMPin’ out the car, and FOUGHT ‘til the last round,
And thought I had the CROWN because I KNOCKED his ass down,
The sucker RAN away, and I would act like I’m fine,
But I’m COvered up in blood ‘cause I was stabbed 5 times,
And BEIN’ at the hospital’s another NIGHTmare,
That’s what I get expectin’ a PUNK to fight fair…
