Splinter

The world is cold as a winter

And people gonna get up under your skin like a splinter

I got a whole lot of issues that are unresolved

I went two weeks without seeing nobody, just my dog

His name is Blao, he's the closest thing to a child

I may ever have, I'm selfish as hell, why lie

Too self absorbed of relationships, still I try

From time to time to find me one for my life

And my patterns are hard for a decent woman to

Respect or accept, so whores I keep em' comin through

In the bed with a babbling bitch that loves me

And she bad it's just some about it's ugly

After we finish, I hate when she try to touch me

It ain't her fault, that's just me

I slowly weigh down, but I ain't perfect though

Relapse is a record that I done heard before

And I'm no Marshall Mathers, I'm talking Andy Mathis

I'm talking deadly habits, it's so sad and tragic

The world is cold as a winter

And people gonna get up under your skin like a splinter

I know I'm a sinner,

But all I can do is pray, god just take the pain away

'Cause I'm cold as the winter

And life done got up under my skin like a splinter

I know I'm a winner

But all I can do is pray, don't let me lose my faith today

I tried my best to be so good to some folks

The same people showed me betrayal up close

The flip side of that coin is I've been negligent

With a lot of my real friends I never meant

To let a day turn into a month and then a year

Without speaking to you, I know that it appears

I just forgot about y'all but really in truth

I forgot about me too, this igloo

I built around myself it's so frigid

And it ain't melting away, I don't dig it

I know life is gone, I'm gon' miss it

It's like it never was here, if you don't live it

I think about the past and get so livid

What the fuck was you thinking, I don't get it

You so capable, personality magnetic

Life could have been so good if you had let it
