Текст песни Been - Demmene Syronn

I've been an activist, I been a pacifist
I've been the catalyst, I've been the positive and negative magnets
I've been an addict, I've been to Narcotics Anonymous
I've been a bastard, I barely know who my father is
I've been about ignorance, and it was mind-boggling
I've been to the statehouse politicking with congressmen
Even though a model citizen is what I never been
I'll still conduct your wedding ceremony like a reverend
I've been the excrement, I've been the venom and the medicine
I've been the asshole and I've been the perfect gentleman
I've been the best man, the bad man, and the middle man
I literally been fathering all of my children
I've been at the top, I've been close to rock bottom
I've been chilling in the dark but I never stopped watching
And it been time for me to move on
But I'd rather light fires with this lighter 'til the hue of the blues gone

Some will take the slow lane, others'll crank the throttle
Some will take the leadership role, others'll follow
Some look solid but their core is hollow
You should never judge a story by the cover of the novel

I've never been to another planet physically speaking
But I've tweaked on crystal meth for a couple of weekends
I've been off the grid, I've been the center of attention
I've been the worst performer on the set, I've been the best one
I been understood there's no such thing as perfection
I've been the one lost, I've been the one giving direction
I've been a hard head, I've been learning them hard lessons
I've been invested, and lost all of my investments
I've been an advocate for getting back to the essence
I've been living in sin, and I've been adding my blessings
I've been the creep peeking through the blinds at the crack house
Blowing that drug money 'til my credit was maxed out
I've been the only child, I've been the product of divorce
Been into Star Wars, I'm still trying to use the force
I've been in many situations but one thing is for sure
You really never know a person, 'til you've been to their core

Some will take the slow lane, others'll crank the throttle
Some will take the leadership role, others'll follow
Some look solid but their core is hollow
You should never judge a story by the cover of the novel
