Artist: Bubba Sparxxx f/ Crucifix Album: Pain Management Song: Splinter Typed by: Nickolye16@aol.com [Intro: Crucifix] Ohh my, na na na na-na Ohh-mmmm The world is cold as a winter And people gon' get up under your skin like a splinter Mmm-mm-mmm [Bubba Sparxxx] I got a whole lot of issues that are unresolved I went two weeks without seein nobody, just my dog His name is Blao, he's the closest thing to a child I may ever have, I'm selfish as hell, why lie? Too self-absorbed for relationships, still I try from time to time to find me one, but my life and my patterns are hard for a decent woman to respect or accept, so whores I keep 'em comin through In the bed with a babblin bitch that loves me And she bad, it's just somethin about her is ugly After we finish I hate when she try to touch me It ain't her fault (ayy) that's just me I slowly weigh down, but I ain't perfect though "Relapse" is a record that I done heard befo' And I'm no Marshall Mathers, I'm talkin Andy Mathis I'm talkin candy habits, it's so sad and tragic [Chorus: Crucifix] The world is cold as a winter And people gon' get up under your skin like a splinter I know I'm a sinner But all I can do is pray, God just take the pain away Cause I'm cold as the winter And life done got up under my skin like a splinter I know I'm a winner But all I can do is pray, don't let me lose my faith today [Bubba Sparxxx] I tried my best to be so good to some folks The same people showed me betrayal up close The flipside of that coin is I've been negligent With a lot of my real friends, I never meant to let a day turn into a month and then a year without speakin to you, I know that it appears I just forgot about y'all, but really in truth I forgot about me too, this igloo I built around myself is so frigid And it ain't meltin away, I don't dig it I know when life is gone I'm gon' miss it It's like it never was here if you don't live it I think about the past and get so livid What the fuck was you thinkin? I don't get it You so capable, personality magnetic Life could've been so good if you had let it [Chorus] [Bubba Sparxxx] I may not be the shit to you but where I come from Them people love Bub', therefore I must just stay faithful, the Lord's got his hands on me And you don't hate me, you just don't understand homie There from humble beginnings I saw limitless possibility, fear was my only nemesis Along the way I forfeited my innocence But that's okay - thank you Lord [Crucifix] Okay; for all the pain, and the affliction It's like a mirror in my face that I need to see All my loss, and my addiction It showed me somethin that I really need to know about me It's like you're shapin me, you're moldin me And killin this heart that's controllin me Though I'm OUT of control, you still order me Foldin me up inside your hands in a world so cold! [Chorus] - minus last line [Outro: Crucifix] But all I can do is pray, just let me make it through the DAYYYY! Yeahhhhhh, just let me make it through the day (let me make it through the day) Just let me make it through the day (let me make it through the day)
