There were seven lumberjacks, heading home Driving through the woods in the dark Half-way they halted as they saw something strange A glow in the sky like a dome One left the truck, don't ask him why He stumbled away in the dark Paralyzed he then found himself in the light Unable to move nor to fight Why do you want me, I beg you to tell I'm stuck in space in a slime covered cell Please don't hurt me or just let me die A cosmic nightmare worse than hell Five days of terror and five nights of fear Feeling nothing but pain Human like creatures with staring black eyes Messing around in his brain Why do you want me, I beg you to tell I'm stuck in space in a slime covered cell Please don't hurt me or just let me die A cosmic nightmare worse than hell Returned by the aliens, naked and cold On the highway he stood in the rain Never did his life turn back again To a point where he felt happy and sane Why do you want me, I beg you to tell I'm stuck in space in a slime covered cell Please don't hurt me or just let me die A cosmic nightmare worse than hell

She gives me hope where I am empty When my tank on empty bae be gassing me up You know that water I just ordered over floweth my cup Uh huh we made it out the mud and now we runneth amuck Relief like Neosporin back when I was stuck in them cuts You know you come in the clutch, like stick-shifting the gears And we can go 4 rounds, I'm in here greasing the wheels I'm looking over girl you make it so uneasy to steer Now we in the backseat, I hope Jesus taking the wheel We on a collision course, Mr. and Mrs. of course Engaging in discourse, I'll give you everything you wishing for And then go get you more If I ain't riding with my Mrs. in form, then I'm missing form And obviously you been misinformed if you think this the norm 'Cause baby I need you, like fat kids need cake And like the cars needed drive Like Curtis Blow need the breaks-brakes Collecting royalties until them hundreds blue in the face I bought a karat for every hour, I'm with you all day And we gone grind until we Siamese stuck at the waist It's never too much space 'cause that's what true love takes Just bought a newer estate, but see a house ain't a home Until you in it, and you fill it, like when you giving me hope You know She gives me hope where I am empty Aye girl you know My back against the ropes you fill me up with hope Can't let it slip between my fingers cleaner than a bar of soap I'm like Will, I check my misdemeanor before I feel provoked And I will, catch more than a misdemeanor thinking it's a joke Get it rocking on stage it's clear that he ain't want the smoke I ain't even 2nd guessed-guest it, I don't care if you the host And now they swear I did the most I thought it over and replayed it Got 'em talking 'bout what Jae did, I just see my lady jaded Can't regret what I did, some don't respect what I did They ain't expect that the kid would act so reckless again This ain't the 1st time I reacted with aggression on cam And now they talking on my actions as if I'm less than a man But see I'm human like you, I saw the pain in her face If the fresh prince don't defend the queen, then I'm a disgrace Decided to leave a fresh print, right on the side of his face When we entitle heroes are they not entitled mistakes The hero's curse, weighs heavy on the heart of a man The harder you sin, the darker ya' skin, the harder to win I'm freefalling again, and that's when I need you the most Cause you all in with your love And that's what's giving me hope, you know When inside I feel like the whole world outside turned against me She gives me hope where I am empty Imagine will, watching all the press, demonize events Once a hero turns into a vigilante, he's a threat Highlighting all your worst moments as if you ain't tried ya' best Somebody got to hand out roses, before we all get laid to rest I imagine, if I was will I would feel depressed For believing in the process then the progress gets regressed Like when Martin had a dream, like when Malcolm donned the X Like Obama preaching change, now it's finally making sense (cents) The hero is cursed And they say there's no hope for the hero why Because the hero's curse But you bring me hope You know She gives me hope where I am empty
