All on Three

Verse 1: Yelawolf

I'm a million miles from home, baby

Still sittin' on the front porch dreamin'

One foot on the stage

The other foot in the ditch, sinkin'

Two cinder blocks stacked up

With the floodlight gripped to the side my light

Notebook full of poems

Allow me to read my rights

It was never supposed to happen

Leave it to the hatred and the disbelievers

Now the same ones who would throw me in gutter with the words

Speechless

Michael Wayne is a ****ed up kid

My ears used to burn like a BIC

Now I'm deaf to this shit

Hush it up now, bitch

Got a house on hills so I see 'em comin'

Bird's eye view like a sniper's nest

They catchin' the drip 'cause the creek is runnin'

That's humble pie, I confess

I'll eat that too 'cause I can't complain

About the who's and what's, I just do my thang

And if the devil come strike me down

I come back as a flood in the pourin' rain

No prophecy, no crystal ball

Just who will fall from this mockery

Backstabbers, watch and see

Karma's a branch on a rotten tree

So I water the roots and I tend the leaves

Make sure that tree don't fall on me

Walk to the edge and get ready to jump

Into the holy river, all on three

All on three like a sixty-four

Like an archangel equipped for war

Lay the verse down like a twisted sword

Just so the blood drips slow, hit record

I lost it once, that was it for sure

They told the psych ward, "go get the boy"

Heart broken with a list of voids

I left open wounds and a fit of noise

Quiet thy soul, son

For the herd are chosen

Clean house in the place of rest

Excuses you owe no one

Mama said it's just growth

One day at a time

So every twenty-four I count my blessings

This day is mine

Climbed the ladder up the barnyard

And took the burnin' hay stacks, the relapse of course

I hit bottles like I hit the bottom floor

Of the burnin' buildin' I did destroy

And from the ashes came the phoenix wings up

Risin' up like that little boy

Maintain, goin' indie

No problem, still employed

So to my family of slums

Who know bein' broke has no color

And to my folks gettin' money

Bein' rich don't mean brothers

Life is a tunnel, I guess

But a ton of life don't mean success

If life is a bitch, take off her dress

And **** the world, till she loses breath, bitch

Verse 2: Baldacci

I woke up one mornin' with my thoughts to myself like

What I want in this life, get myself right

Turn my thoughts to my dreams when I'm out nights

Sittin' in the ghetto, now I'm on like the house light

Stay focused, keep control of the steerin' wheel

Take notes and just appeal to what others feel

Baldacci with the Catfish Billy

All watchin' how we act up really

Got a billion-dollar mindset, holla if you hear me

Tryna get up out the bullshit but I'm caught up in the gimmick, yea

Still I'm reachin' for the stars with my free hand

Thinkin' 'bout my life and my scars, I'm a free man

All the tears from my family, that's the reason

Now the B's with the Wolf, let the G's in

Hear us knockin' at the door, this the right time

Sun up in my face, this a taste of the bright shine

Crazy girls in my world, this a life challenge

Got the world on my shoulders, that's a nice balance

Gettin' heavy but I get it 'cause the price sellin'

Everybody crazy but you listen with the sight yellin'

Get the best of the both, this is showtime

Now invest in yourself, this is go time

Nonetheless, this a quest to a gold mine

Workin' with the best, homie, yes, I'ma show mine

With my brothers and I'm livin' at a fast pace

From the gutter, make you wonder when we last ate

In the county jail, sittin' up in Cal' State

Care less about you suckers and what you cats think

Whole team are superior

This is what you asked for, this is what you fearin', huh?

Get up in the ring, live your dream, not a runback

**** it, when my team see the beam, better run back, pow
