Lyrics

John Doe (feat. Priscilla Renea)

The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.

Seems like your heart stops working

The minute they close the curtain

And you take off your mask

And you take off your costume

And if anyone asks you're taking a small break

Drinking some coffee

But everyone knows what you're doing

Seems like the bus moves slower

Just cause you got somewhere to go

So you take a few pills in Beverly Hills

But if anyone asks you've got a prescription

You got an addiction

Who do you think that you're fooling?

John doe, I just want the john I know

Once you put the drinks on hold

Maybe you could come back home

John doe, ooh oh oh oooh

Oooh oh oh ohooh oooh

Oooh oh oh ohooh oooh

B.o.B:

Everybody's addicted to something

Everybody got a grip onto something,

Even if it's just the feel too responsible appeal,

Maybe once, maybe twice

Maybe hundreds of times, hundreds of times

But that it's just harder to function at times

You wasted at the bottom of every single bottle

As if it was someone or something to find

You're struggling in your mind

And you tell yourself lie after lie

And you get to the point where there's no longer vibin

The people that you work with notice the signs

When you walk in the room, niggas know that's required

So you break up the silence, you say you've been at the gym

But the way look can't blame on the diet

So what you hiding?

John doe, I just want the john I know

Once you put the drinks on hold

Maybe you could come back home

John doe, ooh oh oh oooh

Oooh oh oh ohooh oooh

Oooh oh oh ohooh oooh

B.o.B:

Yeah, I've probably had too many things

Mashed too many freaks

Had too much to drop me

I mean, had too much to drink

Left the club, ended up in custody

Ran the drug tests, passed it luckily

My girl broke with me, 'cause she woke me up suddenly

With a woman up on me

I told her wait! It ain't what it look like

I must've slip and fell, clumsy me

Well, at least I admit it, 'cause the worst you could do

Is to do it and not to be man enough to say that you did it,

That's just how you prevent it, well I ain't no different

I love all the money, the fame

And the parties with beautiful women!

I spend so much time as an underground artist

'Cause I was afraid to succumb to the business

That I've become?

But that what you'd judge I become

The path with the greatest resistance

That's how the tables can turn when they pivot

And change the perspective and flip your entire position

My whole life I've been dying to wish and to live the experience

That every thing's possible when I told 'em my dreams

They just said they were logical

Now, I can see it, it's optical (optical)

Ooh oh oh ohoh ooh

Ooh oh oh ohoh ooh

John doe, I just want the john I know

Once you put the drinks on hold

Maybe you could come back home

John doe!
