Crazy Town – Black cloud
Now people say Im jinxed
I got some kind of voodoo hex
Life is so complex
Theres no telling what can happen next
Life on the edge,
Fuels the sickness in my head
It imbeds the type of thoughts
That got a lot of brothers dead
The smarter brother knows
To keep his foes close
And Im the type of brother
Thats smarter than most
A cold hearted overdose
Of lyrical antidotes
The cure to make sure
My karma cant take me down
Up to the same old tricks
I wonder if Ill stick around
Is a penny really lucky
If you find it on the ground?
Whats the problem with this town?
I cant figure it out
My karmas crashing down
In the form of a black cloud
[Chorus:]
Ive got a little black cloud
That follows me
Everywhere I go,
It takes over me
[x2]
Im sick
Ive got a real ill disposition
My intentions are pure
But theres a cure for my condition
My decisions
Put me in the wrong positions
Chasing pipe dreams
Of fame and recognition
The Epic
Not only a name,
A definition
My game remains no matter the pain
I stay the charmer
The Don of Karma
I navigate it like the Dalai Lama
I aint a saint
But Ive got Joi de vie
And Im the one to blame
If the cloud rains on me
I cant complain about it
Or even let regret
Provoke the energy it takes
For me to get upset
A bad boy since birth
So I cant forget
What goes around
Comes around
And it aint got me yet
Ive gotten wise in my age
And tamed the threat of my rage
Ive got a lot to learn
And Ive got money to spend
To pretend is reaping more
Than sewing ever could mend
[Chorus]
Trade my torches for a dime
The pressures fading away now
Black clouds lifted for the light
The pressures fading away now
A thousand cigarettes
Wont change the way we feel
The pressures fading now
Can you bare the thought of knowing truth?
Knowing truth
I was rapping in the rain,
Hoping that my luck would change
And if theres any truth
To all those old sayings
Cuz if I killed a spider,
Would my house catch on fire?
If I walked under a ladder
Would it matter?
I tend to laugh
When black cats cross my path
Break mirrors in half
Just to test the aftermath
Now here comes rain
I project my pain
Trying to make sense
Of these crazy things
Im a diamond in the rough
Could I suffer enough?
Im getting high for a living,
Not giving a fuck
These hard times got me stuck
Stuck in a jam
Im the monkey on your back
And the crack in the dam
Disastrous
Took time to master this
And the past
Is just a map to capture this
In the darkness
Im forced to adapt to this
I would change the past
If I could have one wish
