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
