Moonless night on the one night I finally talked her into going out
Cancel the late picnic and dancing under the stars
How romantic is sitting in pitch black trying to pour wine out of a box into a styrofoam cup
Slicing my fingers while cutting cheese for wheat thin crackers 
Trying to feed her grapes but I'm just smashing them against her face 
Bugs biting and we can't see shit
Should've known this is what would happen 
Can't remember the last time I moved a step forward 
But I have passed the finish three times 
Backwards 
Down three laps being laughed at 
Damn God can I get alittle manhood back
Who runs their fastest in 105 degree heat 
Like standing naked frying bacon 
Stop 
Ask yourself if the crisp is worth the pain 
Burn marks and clogged heart 
Pissed cause you falling hard 
Stop 
Ask yourself who put the grease on the floor 
Self destruct cause we're afraid to be open with ourself 
A weak core covered up by fat 
And you can't see how the world was able to leave you 
Turtles can't keep up with rabbits 
But we seen as a child 
The turtle wins by never giving up 
You quit before you begin 
Forget ever leading 
To lazy to even follow 
To late to make a move now 
Became rooted like the weeds
Rooted like the weak ass weeds
We take advice as an insult 
Listen to criticism like it's hate 
Applaud to see someone lose 
Without cheering for the winner 
Cause somehow they are taking away from you 
Cause death in our neighborhood by protesting death in our neighborhood 
Steal rent money from your roommate 
To buy weed from your dad 
Have a kid then abandon kid 
With the nerve to yell at the judge cause four digits late on child support 
Explaining to your cell mate how you gave forty dollars last week 
We ain't doing a lot of new shit these days 
Every mistake has been made 
Check YouTube for the video 
Untill then lets all pray that our kids are smarter then there grandparents children is
