Fort Minor, Kenna, Jonah Matranga, Styles of Beyond - Red to Black (feat. Kenna, Jonah Matranga & Styles of Beyond)(2005)

[00:32.01] I had a friend named Viktor, the two of us used to hang every single day
[00:37.04] And it seemed like overnight that his whole life just changed
[00:39.00] I know when his mom and dad broke up, it didn't make sense
[00:42.04] But i know that his dad was a drunk and he gambled away the rent
[00:44.02] Pretty soon Vik was seeing red, pissed off and instead
[00:48.07] Had drink every night until he passed out and then had to do it all again
[00:51.01] The whole time spelling on the outside to cover the pain
[00:54.03] But on the inside all he was trying to do was get away
[00:57.02] Trying to get away
[01:00.03] Let the pain of yesterday
[01:03.01] Go slipping through the cracks
[01:08.04] Yo, funny how things change color than fade to another shade
[01:12.08] When you had it made it was all good but now look just another day
[01:14.00] It was so fresh, and it was so clean, never saw it gone, one, two, three
[01:17.08] Lights out, which way to turn, can't get a grip, all alone in a big white house
[01:21.08] Every day gets worse and you just curse until your head bursts
[01:24.05] And it hurts so bad she left, you think to yourself
[01:25.04] I shoulda thought of that one first
[01:26.09] No family, no kids, can't accept what you did
[01:30.04] Now you wanna run away but you can't 'cause the past comes back again
[01:32.01] Slippin' through the cracks, have a little shack, go to bed half dead
[01:36.09] What about rent, why does every cent gotta be a bet, when's it gonna end
[01:38.05] Oh my God, we don't got a penny left, my moms gotta find a way
[01:41.02] To get a job, out of debt, out of dodge out of breath, out of this big problem
[01:44.02] My pops wanna get away from the pain in a better place in his brain
[01:48.04] But the ********** he takes makes him wasted
[01:51.08] So sick if hes gonna faint, the good Lord would come take him
[01:54.04] I'm shaking now wake up, you son of a *****
[01:57.08] He's trying to get away, let the pain of yesterday
[02:02.04] Go slipping through the cracks
[02:09.04] Hiding himself away, watching all the memories fade away
[02:15.09] From red to black
[02:21.09] He's trying to get away, let the pain of yesterday
[02:27.05] Go slipping through the cracks
[02:33.04] Hiding himself away, watching all the memories fade away
[02:39.01] From red to black
[02:45.03] Slipping through the cracks
[02:51.06] Slipping through the cracks
[02:56.05] Slipping through the cracks
[03:02.55]
