Better Off Alone Lyrics

[Intro]
808
808, '08, 808

Gang, gang
We in Chiraq, ya dig? (Skrrt, grrah)

[Refrain]
Yesterday, I tweaked, then I took a Xan' (808 Mafia)
Today, I said that I won't do that shit again
My brother told me to describe the perfect bitch
I said, "Percocets" (Hahaha)
I said, "Percocets" (For real)


[Verse 1]
The blue pills, they give me the perfect itch (Oh yeah)
She told me she want her a Birkin bag
Better put the Percs in a Birkin, bitch (Oh yeah)

My ex bitch call me a snake
Wait, I'ma show you what a serpent is (Oh yeah)
Look in the mirror, the vision can't get any clearer (Uh)
Anyways nigga, It's my year (Uh)
Ball 'til I'm bald like Britney Spears (Uh-huh)
Three round burst up in that chopper (Uh) grra, musketeers (Uh-huh)
Codeine in my double cup, I am not drinking beer (Sip, sip, sip)
Uh, I ain't take no pills today, I'm startin' to get the bubble guts (What the fuck?)
Twin barrels on that shotty, yeah, and it's a horny gun (Grra)
I'm gon' cock it back, let it off and watch it double nut (Grra)

Also got my .40 tucked, that's another horny one (Oh yeah)
Got so many horny guns, you thought we were shooting a porn or somethin' (Smash)
Uh, shoot like the Mavericks (Ah)
Couple semis and a few automatics (Uh-huh)
Run up on me, you get caught up in traffic (Uh-huh)
All my niggas stretch him out like elastic (Uh-huh), yeah, yeah
You don't want static, but me? I'm havin' it
I'll leave your body packaged like the bricks in my cabinet (Yeah)
[Chorus]
I ain't have no Percs, I'm mad (Bitch)
May wanna shoot your dad (Bitch)
I feel like a savage, huh, still a sad kid
I ain't have no Percs, I'm mad (Bitch)
May wanna shoot your dad (Bitch)
I feel like a savage, huh, still a sad kid

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, uh, demons in my head, leave me alone
Uh, I think I'll be better off alone
In my mind, I roam

[Verse 2]
Feelin' delirious (Wait)
Ran out of Percocets, bitch, is you serious? (Wait, wait)
Them drugs control me like a eye in the middle of a pyramid
I need some more, period
I mean, point-blank, mo'fuckin' period, uh
Don't try to understand, you will never understand
Broke up with the drugs, but I need a second chance
I'll do whatever it takes, I'll even take on a Dr. Phil
That's how you know it's real, huh
Love for real, love for real, love for real (I'm in love for real)
I gave her a chance, the devil wanna dance
That wasn't a part of the plan
I only came down here to buy some Xans (Some Xans)

[Refrain]
Yesterday, I tweaked, then I took a Xan'
Today, I said that I won't do that shit again
My brother told me to describe the perfect bitch
I said, "Percocets"
I said, "Percocets"


[Chorus]
I ain't have no Percs, I'm mad (Bitch)
May wanna shoot your dad (Bitch)
I feel like a savage, huh, still a sad kid
I ain't have no Percs, I'm mad (Bitch)
May wanna shoot your dad (Bitch)
I feel like a savage, huh, still a sad kid

[Post-Chorus]
Ooh, uh, demons in my head, leave me alone
Uh, I think I'll be better off alone
In my mind, I roam
