In due time I’ll pay what’s owed Alone for the load of old moves Payback for loans to sell dreams for a minute Pimpish If it’s crazy to be owned by the past I will be finished Listened To the choir to acquire what was missing My soul is tired Worn like treads of tires Sneaker soles and old attire Suited with attributes of a brute Uncouth in the present of the future forbearing Telling what’s apparent Yet no one will listen Forever imprisoned by debt Even bankruptcy is too much to afford Lawyers are costly Hard to invest in freedom I’m left Like the wrong hand Gambling for the chance To win Signing on lines Next to x’s Trying to buy back..... Trying.... I’m trying to... **** I need my ******* soul back!
