Hey Lino, what's up, man (Whaddup?)
Just checking in
I know it's been a while since the last time we spoke my friend
(Right?)
Well, you know, man, just saying what's up
Cos last time we spoke you were a suicidal f**
(Shut it)
Remember that?
Crazy fool that was scary (Yeah)
I thought that you had relapsed, you had me kind of worried
(Don't trip, dawg)
Remember, dawg, we've been over this before
You're barely twenty-three, you gotta live to see more
(I know, man)
Well, what's up, man? What seems to bother you?
And don't tell me it's nothing, remember that I fathered you
It's been a while since you turned eighteen
And I think it's been like five years since you smoked weed
But, somebody told me you're abusing pharmaceuticals
You need to get your act together before you lose it, bro
(I got it, man)
I should've known you're a pill-popping addict
Cos every time we meet, you have another bad habit
[Mayor Ford]
I am not an alcoholic, I am not a drug addict
Have I drank? Have I done d**? Yes, I have
But, the counts are self-inflicted
Yeah, I know it feels great to get a brush of dopamine
The way you seem to get one is not how it's supposed to be
(Why not?)
You're taking Vicodin and now you're taking Xanax
I know your life is stressful, but I thought that you would manage
(I can't)
Come on, dawg, you need to change your mindset
You're about to graduate, you need to get your life straight
(I know, man)
That many pills, man, it's bad for your health
And I honestly think you need professional help (I don't)
Cos every two weeks you seem to up the milligrams
And I'm starting to wonder if it could actually k** a man
(Why?)
Mix and matching them until you get a full kick
Make sure it doesn't intervene with any of your school sh**
(It won't)
You have a problem which you don't want to admit
Cos you tried stopping before, but it was difficult to quit
(I didn't try)
Well, peace out, G. I have to bounce now
I hope you take into consideration what we talked about
(Aight, peace, dawg. Worry about yourself, nawm saying. I worry about me)
