Backslide Lyrics

Los Angeles take your dreams away
Burnin' on the ground
At the end of the day it's your life, your loss
If you can't turn the clock aroundI said, Oh, my God, you can have her for that one
So you better not miss a shot
You're letting yourself get into all kinds of danger
Soon enough, you're gonna get caughtThey had a feeling
It was like you had to prove you're one in a million
And on top of that junk he's been dealing
This time the drugs are you and they'll come through
It ain't gonna stop 'til they get what they wantAnd I say, Nobody knows me, I'm all alone
I say, I, I gotta go
It's a Hollywood bus stop and the party's over
I, I gotta goJohn was havin' his homeboy down, so he waited for a ride
Then waited to confide in Hollywood's concert backslide
With affordable lives and a sunroof, nestled among the filth
Frequencies and bad intentions, gotta take it for what it's worthAnd I say, They had a feeling
It was like you had to prove you're one in a million

And on top of that junk he's been dealing
This time the drugs are you and they'll come through
It ain't gonna stop 'til they get what they wantAnd I say, Nobody knows me, I'm all alone
I say, I, I gotta go
It's a Hollywood bus stop and the party's over
I, I gotta goHave you ever been haunted by your past?
And it will never let you go
Well, never ever, ever let you go
No, I said, they'll never ever, ever let you goNobody knows me, I'm all alone
I say, I, I gotta go
It's a Hollywood bus stop and the party's over
I, I gotta goI say, I, I gotta go
I, I gotta go
I, I gotta go
I said, Yeah
