[Chorus - 2X]

I know it's strange

But my brain's gone really insane

And I'm off the chain

Sipping on a fifth of the Golden Grain

I feel like slappin a nigga today (slap slap)

Slappin a nigga today

I feel like slappin a nigga today (slap slap)

Slappin a nigga today

Slappin a nigga today

[Verse 1: Ludacris]

This morning, I woke up on the wrong side of the bed (bed)

I'm sick of people putting lies in my head (head)

I don't really wanna work, I'm tired

I hate my 9 to 5

And I'm thinking bout killin my boss today

Killin my boss today

I'm thinking bout killin my boss today (it's just a thought man)

Killin my boss today (yeah)

Yesterday my best friend died (died)

Somebody came and took his life (life)

Now I'm looking up at the sky

Have you ever seen a grown man cry?

And I'm asking why did you take him away?

Why did you take him away?

I'm asking why did you take him away? (why'd you take him)

Why did you take him away? (hey)

I need some money please (please)

I can barely make it on these streets (these streets)

Cause I got a couple mouths to feed

My baby's in dire need

So I'm thinking bout robbin a bank today

Robbin a bank today

I'm thinking bout robbin a bank today

Robbin a bank today (real talk)

Baby mama's at home and fussin' (fussin)

Callin up my mobile cussin' (cussin)

Always yappin about this and that

But she really don't be talkin bout nothin

Somebody take my pain away (Take my pain away)

Take my pain away (please)

Somebody take my pain away (hey)

Take my pain away (I can't take it)

[Chorus - 2X]

[Verse 2: Ludacris]

Somebody just broke in my ride (ride)

Snatched up everything inside (inside)

Even got my 45

How am I supposed to survive

When I know that my stereo's taken away

Stereo's taken away

When I know that my stereo's taken away (I need my music, man!)

Stereo's taken away (hey)

Gas prices are way too high

Rich people are way too fly

And I'm where I wanna be in my life

But why am I so behind

Is it cause I'm wasting my time away

Wasting my time away

Is it cause I'm wasting my time away (too lazy)

Wasting my time away (I can't help it)

My grandmama's nerves are bad (bad)

And everybody in the hood is mad (mad)

Cause President Bush could give a DAMN about our ass

So I don't wanna hear shit that he has to say (don't say nothin)

Shit that he has to say

I don't wanna hear shit that he has to say

Shit that he has to say (woo)

Troops gone and we still at war (war)

Nobody even really knows what for (what for)

Even more I'm scared to find what the world really has in store

Cause you know that tomorrow's not promised today (it's not promised man)

Tomorrow's not promised today

Cause you know that tomorrow's not promised today (live like today could be your last man!)

Tomorrow's not promised today (hey)

[Chorus - 4X]
