Mic Smitty - Life Is A Joke lyrics

[Intro: Dave Chappelle] You know what I hate ever since I walked away from that show? Is that uhh... People keep trying to give me advice Cause I guess I've been like depressed You know how you be depressed and people be like trying to cheer you up And i'm in show business, that's what makes me so mad about it So they be saying stupid- "Hey Dave, look i know it's a rough experience and I can only imagine what you've been through But, you know... you just gotta hang in there And just gotta do what you gotta-Keep your chin up Just keep you chin up Dave" WORD? That's what I gotta do alone? It's cause my chin was too low? SHUT THE fu*k UP THIS, HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH MY CHIN ni**aS! [Verse:] For the last few years it's been late nights Early mornings, smell of folgers Bags forming under my eyes Laid off from 8 jobs, Friday After Next, security guard Like Craig n***a, last staff sources so it's just tip service Cause a few bad choices, still Ooh lord y'all don't hear me though But you can see it better when they clear the smoke, yea I used to wanna hustle like Smokie, but I ain't tryna owe nobody Count the money twice cause it really ain't there I really wanna do right but the left seem so good To the left, to the left Got me feeling like Beyonce in my ear But it's the devil on my shoulder And the Lord is my witness Swear to God i gotta get it Cause my sister got kids and my brother just had one And I put this on everything, Love is a scary thing When you give a hoe your heart that's in love with a cloge Try to give her a diamond but you end up getting played b**h this ain't spades! Man these hoes ain't loyal! And man these b**hes ain't for you! Man these b**hes ain't sh** like Too $hort I don't even smoke, but i need a Newport, hear me out So I ask: What's the secret to life? They say money ain't everything That's cool 'til you gotta play the rent Cause I done seen some homeless people happy as a b**h So i don't know, maybe i'll write, maybe i'll write But the money seem nice, but the money seem right I'm just trying to live life Man life is a joke [Outro: Dave Chappelle] Some girl I knew sent me a book Called "The Secret" She was like "Listen Dave this is gonna help you It's called The Secret" I was like, you know i thought this sh, you know Then i started reading the book and... i read like 5 pages of the sh** an-nd through it in the trash I was f**ing... I can't believe they sell this sh**! Do you know what this b**h says the secret of life is?! She said it was "Positive Imagery" "You gotta visualize the things that are gonna happen in your life" Like b**h, that is the secret of life to you? Then k** yourself
