There Ain't No Intelligence In Dc

and I'm seeing my breath
Trying to make it home without freezing to death
And my grandfather's face is
Stuck in my mind mind and how
Seeing him tonight's gonna be the last time I should've brought a jacket
Blowing in my hands like it's really gonna stop the chill
I buy a cup of coffee with a five dollar bill
Thinking
Laying in that box people look so still
At times like these you start thinking
Your first breath in and the clock starts ticking
I'm not trying to bum anyone out
Not trying to be dramatic
Just thinking out loud
[Chorus]I'm just trying to make some sense in my mind
Some defense from the cold that I'm feeling outside and for a minute
Escape with some rhythm and rhyme and
Get away from the grey
There ain't no intelligence in Dc
Kinda funny how this world can treat you
Like a freak in a sideshow
A carnival creature
Climbing outta cans
There ain't no intelligence in Dc
[The Karma Killers]Pardon me
I think I'm nect to url
Too many problems going on
That's why I left my girl
Packed my bags and traveled with a pen and a notepad
Pissed that I was broke and all the things that I dont have
But still
I try to find a way to escape
From all the hate planted in my head which lead to mistakes
But now I'm breaking the mold
See I was patient and calm
Many sleep in the rain
But I'm awake in the storm
Writing my life in a short film
The rise and Fall
How I managed to scorch hills
and climb the walls
Pound pavement
[Chorus]I'm just trying to make some sense in my mind
Some defense from the cold that I'm feeling outside and for a minute
Escape with some rhythm and rhyme and
Get away from the grey
There ain't no intelligence in Dc
Kinda funny how this world can treat you
Like a freak in a sideshow
A carnival creature
Climbing outta cans
There ain't no intelligence in Dc
[Sean Kingston]She said "Some days I feel like shit,
Some days I wanna quit, and just be normal for a bit,"
I don't understand why you have to always be gone,
I get along but the trips always feel so long,
And, I find myself trying to stay by the phone,
'Cause your voice always helps me to not feel so alone,
But I feel like an idiot, workin' my day around the call,
But when I pick up I don't have much to say,
That I'm stuck here waitin', at times debatin',
Tellin' you that I've had it with you and your career,
Me and the rest of the family here singing "Where'd you go?"
[Chorus]I'm just trying to make some sense in my mind
Some defense from the cold that I'm feeling outside and for a minute
Escape with some rhythm and rhyme and
Get away from the grey
There ain't no intelligence in Dc
Kinda funny how this world can treat you
Like a freak in a sideshow
A carnival creature
Climbing outta cans
There ain't no intelligence in Dc
I'm just trying to make some sense in my mind
Some defense from the cold that I'm feeling outside and for a minute
Escape with some rhythm and rhyme and
Get away from the grey
There ain't no intelligence in Dc
Kinda funny how this world can treat you
Like a freak in a sideshow
A carnival creature
Climbing outta cans
There ain't no intelligence in Dc
There Ain't No Intelligence In Dc
