World Of Shit

Song byEels
in AlbumSouljacker

In this world of shit

Baby you are it

A little light that shines all over

Must take over and see us through the night

daddy was a troubled genius

Mama was a real good egg

Why don't we just get together

For whatever and see if it's alright

I spent so many days

Just staring at the haze

And I think that that's a book

That I don't have to write again

Now when I rise I shine

I got you on my mind

And the question isn't if

The question is merely when...

Baby I confess

I am quite a mess

So let's get married and make some people

More than equal in this world of shit

I will make a pledge

To get down off the ledge

You and I belong together

And forever we will have our love
