Uh oh uh oh down low down low etc.
I am not who I want to be
I probably will not ever be
I drove my car onto 14th
I drove it right on down the street
I had not had any sleep
So I ate minithins to stay awake
You crashed your car right into me
There was two days I didn't sleep
Uh oh uh oh down low down low etc.
I am not who I want to be
I probably will not ever be
I took a trip down to California
Karma's payment plan...
K-k-karma's payment plan
My car broke down out in the steet
The radiator sprung a leak
I met this guy he said that he could help me
I'm on the karma's payment plan
We went to his house and did some speed
He said: karma would pay for this deed
He got it fixed and he started to scare me
I ditched him eventually
And came back for the van the next morning
I went to la the next day
I got jacked in a really bad way
I cannot tell you but..
It's a long story
