I had a friend named Victor and. The two of us used to hang every single day. And it seemed like overnight that his whole life just changed. I know when his mom and dad broke up it didn't make sense. But I know that his dad was a drunk and he gambled away the rent. Pretty soon Victor was seeing red pissed off. But instead he'd drink every night until he passed out and then he'd do it all again. The whole time he was smiling on the outside to cover the pain. But on the inside all he was just trying to get away. He's dying to get away let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks. Yo funny how things change color then fade to another shade when you. Had it made that was all good but now look just another day.. It was so fresh it was so clean never saw it go 1-2-3 lights out which way to turn. Can't get a grip all alone in the big white house. Everything gets worse and you just curse till your head bursts. And it hurts so bad and she left make yourself should've thought of that one first. No family no kids can't accept what you did.. Now you wanna wait but you can't because the past comes back again. Slippin' through the cracks sip a little Jack. Could've been half dead. What about rent? Why does every cent gotta be a bet? When's it gonna end?. Oh my God we don't got a penny left.. My mom's gotta find a way to get a job out of debt out of Dodge. Out of breath out of this big problem. My pop's wanna get away from the pain and the better place in his brain. But the medication he takes makes him wasted so sick. If he's gonna think the good Lord would come take him. I'm shaking him wake up you son of a bitch.. He's dying to get away. Let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks. Hiding himself away. Watching all the memories fade away from red to black. He's dying to get away. let the pain of yesterday go slipping through the cracks. Hiding himself away. Watching all the memories fade away from red to black. Slipping through the cracks. Slipping through the cracks. Slipping through the cracks.
