Black boots, red cup Brown liquor, no suds Some bad motherfuckers just rolled up Yeah Firecracker, short fuse I pull the plug out on you like a cockscrew No limit, no curfew Yeah To get everything I wanted in this lifetime I had to put my beliefs on the front line In every song that I sing It's always been you and me Tell my baby it'll be another late night I left work eight hours after midnight No breaks, no sleep And it's always been you and me ♪ You know it's always been you and me Long money, no short change You're still hatin', poor thing Middle fingers up, tell you on more thing Yeah You can't hear me, let me dumb it down I'm slum by nature from a small town We tote guns by nature, no showin' out Yeah To get everything I wanted in this lifetime I had to put my beliefs on the front line In every song that I sing It's always been you and me Tell my baby it'll be another late night I left work eight hours after midnight No breaks, no sleep And it's always been you and me Like a raven over the grave I get lost over the page I'm in tune with my spirit Doing shrooms, trip for days 18 with the plats, in the projects with the raps White boy with the blacks From the stick, I crossed the track Rock and roll, rolling stone Daddy left his pistol home Load it up, shooting bottles off the porch to his songs I was troubled, I was hurt And it bubbled up to surface Took it out on writing songs I put that seed up under the dirt God gave me water (blessed) Two sons and a daughter (blessed) I prayed and prayed harder (now I) Work hard and play harder, I Visualize, put thumbtacks over outline And when they said I was out of my mind I put more goals in the pipeline, this is my time To get everything I wanted in this lifetime I had to put my beliefs on the front line In every song that I sing It's always been you and me Tell my baby it'll be another late night I left work eight hours after midnight No breaks, no sleep And it's always been you and me ♪ You know it's always been you and me ♪ You know it's always been you and me
