One time, one time
Alright, here we go
Two times
One time for your mind
Your body and your soul
Everytime that I rhyme
You know I'm in control
Alright, here we go
Here we go, here we go

And we've been here for so many years
Still it seems as if you're not there
Are you there?
Everytime I talk you turn away
Do you care?
Isn't Dad an obligation to care?

And we said
Hey we've been here for so many years
So many years still it seems
Why it's so complicated, yeah
Overrated, alright
Complicated
Well this feeling is love

Well I came through the door, yeah I said it before
I never let the stress get me down no more
Giving thanks to the lord, yo I pray everyday
Giving shots to my peeps, and this is what we say

And we said
Hey we've been here for so many years
So many years still it seems
And why it's so complicated, yeah
Overrated, alright
Complicated
Well this feeling is love

You got your one little room with a black & white TV
You got your one single bed, and you don't wanna see
Livin' all alone, you're like a dog without a bone
You're livin' all alone 'cause you left us all at home
Well you had a second chance but you threw it all away
Your fourth & fifth & sixth, now that was yesterday
Now you're sittin' at a bar just drownin' all your tears
Lonely in the corner while everybody cheers

And we said
Hey we've been here for so many years
So many years still it seems
Why it's so complicated, yeah
Overrated, alright
Complicated
Well this feeling is love

For six dollars in your pocket
And one's a secret stash
Three's for alcohol
And two's for cigarettes
Alright
