[00:06.49]Another day, another hotel, the inside of it's nice though
[00:09.29]Oh well, this is my life so as I go and try to close for the nights show
[00:12.67]See how far that line goes, still blows my mind, show business
[00:16.15]Guess I'll never get some of this ******t just always feels so weird
[00:19.18]To this day cause all I ever did
[00:20.99]Was just say the ******t I would've wanted to hear
[00:22.60]Other people say to me when I was a kid
[00:24.41]So please don't make me some type of hero
[00:26.62]Cause I will say some inspirational ******t in a real way but will still have a field day
[00:30.60]With some of the ****** up ******t in the world and tell it to sucking a ******
[00:33.37]Cause I still make fun of a situation
[00:36.31]Someone's in like a son of a ****** at anothers expense
[00:39.28]I'm ******' relentless as ****** when it comes to this pen
[00:40.45]I struggle with coming to senses
[00:42.27]Stuck on the fence on a balance beam if I seem unbalanced
[00:43.68]It's challenging but my conscience allows me to think
[00:45.34]The most foulish childish things without even blinking
[00:47.72]Without even thinkin' about, all the stinkin'
[00:50.30]amounts of people that seem to be reachin' in the crowds
[00:52.00]I'm scream in the palace, sold out this evening
[00:54.43]But now it's, maybe down to sleeping
[00:55.84]Is it really my soul to keep or
[00:57.51]Have I sold it cheap is it greed
[00:59.36]Do I take more than I need
[01:00.74]When I joke of leavin'
[01:02.75]But keep over achievin'
[01:04.36]Cause what it's stole from me I've barely broken even
[01:05.47]It's a fine, fine line
[01:12.37]So I notice how I paint myself
[01:25.57]And through my hair when ordeals I'm so vain
[01:27.28]I want my respect but ignore the
[01:28.90]Butterfly effect that comes from my dialect
[01:30.52]Till I, sit in the dark and I reflect
[01:32.53]And my reflection shows what it's like here
[01:34.74]Cause this vanity, surrounded by all these lights, yeah
[01:37.42]It's like a nightmare
[01:39.17]I said, this vanity surrounded by these lights is a nightmare
[01:41.54]And I don't like how I see myself, so I open the Bible to Isaiah
[01:44.95]Cause I swear to Christ there are nights where I stay up at night
[01:48.93]And say a prayer twice just to make sure God hears cause this ice layer
[01:52.27]I skate on's a nice way of putting it but I like stands
[01:54.24]Feistier then a triceritops and like a dice player
[01:56.91]I got a nice paradise here, sealed off in my lair
[02:00.07]Away from the bull******t good safe place to sit and talk ******t
[02:03.10]From this house it's quite big, but it ain't when you can't leave it
[02:05.52]And I feel so isolated, nice I made it
[02:07.64]But it's like I paid the price of fame twice, I hate it
[02:10.11]So I ****** about my life then make another song, it's a cycle ain't it
[02:13.37]Then I wonder why I'm still famous
[02:15.38]I keep walkin' the line
[02:16.94]This gold fish poke it's old
[02:17.75]But especially when you don't know
[02:19.81]If your conscience is sayin' I told you so
[02:22.03]Cause you don't even know anymore if you got the soul of a soldier
[02:24.55]Or you sold your soul
[02:24.71]It's a fine, fine line
[02:43.41]And from here you look so small
[02:46.03]Hovering high above us all
[02:49.91]Please come back, to me
[02:56.27]I still remember the times when
[02:57.72]They were simpler than the rhymes of
[02:59.59]Vanilla Ice were when I was just killin' the mics
[03:01.92]I'll never forget what that feeling was like
[03:03.47]I miss those times now when I was just starting out
[03:07.04]Without a dime and, now I'm diamond
[03:08.44]I can't even stage dive in the crowd anymore now when I've been
[03:10.71]Stuck in this house hibernatin'
[03:12.73]Hate even going outside it
[03:14.45]Sucks, sometimes I just wanna walk in Target and look at ******t browse
[03:17.42]I don't even want to buy nothin'
[03:19.02]I just wanna ******' walk around inside it
[03:20.66]Look how excited I sound when I get to talkin' bout life and
[03:22.62]Everything about it I miss, which now reminds me
[03:25.69]Put a thousand lighters in the sky for the Outsidaz
[03:28.40]Wow, I must have had Alzheimers
[03:30.17]Long time since I shouted them out, bout time
[03:32.13]Cause it's been on my mind lately how
[03:34.04]Zee, you always supported me
[03:36.05]You vouched, I will never forget that and
[03:38.23]How you guys, accepted me for me and Pace
[03:40.70]I love you too, you slept on my couch
[03:43.21]And I been thinkin' 'bout the time when I slept on the floor at the outhouse
[03:45.78]Rhyming's all we ever wanted to do
[03:47.75]And regardless how life has turned out
[03:49.26]Inside I'm, I'll always be an outsider
[03:51.32]My life has been turned inside out but I
[03:54.54]It's a fine, fine line
