[07:42.00]A forty ounce for breakfast gets a brother through the day
[07:42.00]I guess I shoulda had a V8 instead anyway
[07:42.00]Let me contemplate my thought something back to a time
[07:42.00]When my fridge was full of booze but in my pocket not one dime
[07:42.00]I remember back on Willis Ave with my ace boom homey Mark Black
[07:42.00]I would start the day off hearin' the sound of the fo'-oh crack
[07:42.00]I went to work blitzed so eventually I got dissed
[07:42.00]And caught a shocker when my supervisor said You're dismissed
[07:42.00]Now as I stare at my last check now my mind is stressed and depressed
[07:42.00]I spell relief S T I D E S yes with a little excess less the worry
[07:42.00]Why go job hunting today
[07:42.00]When I can sit back and smoke this sack and drink
[07:42.00]And feel my problems shrink away
[07:42.00]And by now the rent's due in two weeks
[07:42.00]But inside my mind that's just another problem brew can delete
[07:42.00]I got evicted to the point where the court martial came to my door
[07:42.00]And said Get this kid：get your bags and split you don't live here no more
[07:42.00]And now I'm a*s out I'm so d**n hungry I feel like I'm gonna pass out
[07:42.00]I asked my brother for a handout and he hooked me
[07:42.00]Though I knew he had doubts
[07:42.00]And rightfully so cause I had new s**t to deal with
[07:42.00]I'm so confused I have no control of my life I think I'll get lit
[07:42.00]So as my problems compile I steady smile oh yes
[07:42.00]Sippin' on that forty ounce that's leadin' me to a path of nowhere
[07:42.00]So as I think about tomorrow I hesitate and say：
[07:42.00]A forty ounce for breakfast will get me through the day
[07:42.00]A forty ounce for breakfast gets a brother through the day
[07:42.00]I guess I shoulda rolled a joint up instead anyway
[07:42.00]Seems like every time I start I don't know when it's time to say when
[07:42.00]Now my mental gets all blurred and inside talk the ill behavin'
[07:42.00]Coolin with my boys no names need to be mentioned
[07:42.00]At a party with some brothers I don't know I'm chillin' in some E&J
[07:42.00]With a forty O Z to wash the s**t down
[07:42.00]And plus a lot of m*******a now I need to sit down
[07:42.00]I can't remember the last time I was this blew out of my cranium
[07:42.00]My ears and head begin to hum aloud as the room spun anyway
[07:42.00]Next thing I know I blacked out woke up with vomit all over my coat
[07:42.00]Start talkin' out my a*s I can't see straight but yet I quote
[07:42.00]And I don't know what came over me I started dissin' both my homies
[07:42.00]That I used to freestyle with and now I'm askin' them to show me
[07:42.00]What they got not thinkin' straight I don't know why I posed the challenge
[07:42.00]Now my ego is erupting as if I was Mt
[07:42.00]Saint Helens
[07:42.00]Some s**t was said I know I can't erase and now s**t ain't the same
[07:42.00]I wish I had just one more chance to live that day again
[07:42.00]I strain cause this bid was to find a true friend
[07:42.00]And loose them to booze in my system just ain't how I'm livin'
[07:42.00]Nothin' I could really say to mend up how someone else feels
[07:42.00]And so I guess I gotta wait and see if maybe the wounds will heal
[07:42.00]And I really didn't mean a word I said though I can't prove that
[07:42.00]Now the only thing that I can really say is I went out
[07:42.00]And out I went and now and then I get irate and say
[07:42.00]A forty ounce for nah
[07:42.00]A forty ounce for f**k
[07:42.00]Just one more forty just one more I'll make this last day
[07:42.00]A forty ounce for breakfast can get me through the day
