Calm Of The Storm

[Intro]
---------------------------------
[Verse 1]
I was cruisin down the road
In a black burban
Cause I m tryin to figure out
How to work again
Hoping to make
A stack of money
Cause everyone requires it
For that sticky icky honey yeah
Too bad the cops
Are all over me
Just for tryin to transport
A little green tree
Wanna ride my way
To easy street
But all I got
Is this new beat
Yeah
------------------------------------------
[Chorus]
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the storm
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the storm
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the storm
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the (storm)
------------------------------------------
[Verse 2]
Livin life two
Gallons at a time
Getting stuck in my
Own damn mind
It seems like nothing makes it
Any better
Got a cartoon rain cloud
Only wetter
It let up for
Just a little bit
Enough to make me throw the
Towel and quit
Then the winds died
And my guard was down
Tight when the storm
Turned back around
-------------------------------------------
[Chorus]
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the storm
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the storm
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the storm
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the (storm)
-------------------------------------------
[Verse 3]
Lightning flashes
And the thunder goes boom
Washes me away
Like a nuclear plume
Fines coming at me
Like each drop from the sky
Leaves me wondering why
I ever ing try
Only if I owned
A pair of waterproof boots
As this mud leaves my life
A bit too loose
To even get a good
Standing chance to walk, and
Now im here trying to rap
But sounding like a white man talking
--------------------------------------------
[Chorus]
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the storm
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the storm
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the storm
Why you gotta get so high
RIGHT BEFORE THE CALM OF THE STORM
--------------------------------------------
[Instrumental]
---------------------------------------------
[Verse 4]
Sun finally shines
On this dreary day
And i pick up the sticks
From my lifes disarray
Head to the cabin
For some good time fun
Thinking that theres gonna be
No more rain to come
But then the clouds
Turn around once again
Like, clockwork
I m left with no plan
Praying to god
That the storm passes over
Gotta find my misplaced
Four leaf clover
-----------------------------------------------
[Chorus]
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the storm
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the storm
Why you gotta get so high
Right before the calm of the storm
Why you gotta get so high
RIGHT BEFORE THE CALM OF THE STORM
-----------------------------------------------
