A Tall Seven And Seven

Yo can I get a Seven and Seven over here?

Yo can I get a Cranberry Citron?

A tall one?

No, no, lemme get a Newcastle, a Newcastle

Yo homie

Had I known

That you'd a grown

Into a full-blown example of how to act like an asshole

I never would have introduced you to booze and skipping school

'Cause right now I feel responsible to find an answer

Yo, yo, back in junior high when you and I started getting high

Life was just a joke, we was too young to know the punch-line

And you would sooner die then realize you're running out of time

Who's to decide there's no more recess after lunch-time

Bam, here you am, intoxicated again

Yo, how you doin' man?

Yeah it's good to see you

Bam, here you am, intoxicated again

He used to be my man, understand?

I believe you've slightly exceeded (slight exceeded)

How many of them drinks that you think you need when

You're trying to boost the bonus points and reinforce your voice

But I'm not trying to walk within your obnoxiousness (hell naw)

We used to be friends back in the day when you had direction

But that was before your brain felt that infection

And I ain't claiming innocence

I was right there with you then

I'm just sayin'

While we was waiting to move up, some of us grew up

We all knew what the difference between wrong and right was

Sometimes the line blurred, when we was influenced by a light buzz

But from what I see, you've established the persona

Basis, built from foundation, for emulating the genre, drama

Without taking a moment to ponder, the trail of karma that you've weaved

Through the field that you've wandered

No longer am I shocked by the things you do

I'm just confused as to why it's gotta be me to confront you

I guess nobody else gives a damn

So I gotta go for self, 'cause I'm a man

Understand?

And you can take it as concern

Or you can see it as your ego getting burned

Either way, tonight yo, one of us is gonna learn

And I guess nobody else gives a damn

But see I do

Because you used to be my man, understand?

And even if it means you beat me down to the cement

It's all love, I need to see you stick around until the end

Bam, intoxicated again (right?)

Bam, intoxicated again ('cause I'm a man, understand?)
