Around The Block

Wonderful as it may seem
 I've never been alone
 I open wide and look closely
 This is what I'm shown, yeah
 I've got friends in this cold city
 That won't pick up no slack
 I've got friends on every street
 That wanna stab my back
 Oh, oh, oooh
 I've been around the block, oh oh
 So many times I forgot my address
 So many times I don't know where I live
 Terrible as it may be
 Don't wanna leave this misery
 I've got friends in the highest places
 They all have their goals
 I've got friends with two faces
 But don't have one damn soul
 I've been around this town, oh oh
 I'm so high I will never come down
 When I do, I hit the hard ground
 I've been around the block, oh oh
 So many times I forgot my address
 So many times I don't know where I live
 Never feel at home
 No I don't
 I know it's true
 I'd leave if not for you
 Nowhere else to go
 I swear baby
 No one's got no soul no more
 No on'es got no soul no more
 Oh, oh, ooooh
 And I've been around this town, oh oh
 I'm so high I will never come down
 When I do, I hit the hard ground
 I've been around the block, oh oh
 So many times I forgot my address
 So many times I don't know where I live
