Catch Myself - Marc E. Bassy

Lean back with the foot on the wall, it’s too nasty

This coke cost too much, and my voice sounds raspy

Too many cigarettes and whiskey when I’m in NY

Feel like it’s the world against me, walking in Bed-Stuy

Walking with my chick, is these people all Jamaican?

Get a glass of sea moss, two eggs, a side of bacon

Eugene tell me go see a show, some hardcore band

Seven dollar cab ride, pull up beside a tour van

That shit was yankin' and we try to find some cocaine

Strike out though, I hear somebody calling my name

It’s the rest of the posse, we debate about the new Kendrick

Sharing some interest, homie say he never saw that perspective

Back in some dive shit, nasty free pizza, with the beer and shot

First approach of the night, «Uh, do you come here a lot?»

Right, this shit’s busted anyway

Coke connect came through, gotta hit the ATM to pay

Call me up off the liquor

Say that you want me

Call me up off the liquor

Say that you want me

Sometimes I need to catch myself, catch myself

Sometimes I need to catch myself, catch myself

Okay, take it, it’s in the right pocket of that peacoat

Hit the star, come out blabbing like I’m on a key note

Music biz, gossip bitches, all in a cypher

I wish New York was tighter, what if we lived here as a minor

I mean my momma grew up out in Brooklyn and she told me stories

Graffiti painted walls and brown bags covering 40's

Was the normal city scape, nothing on your dinner plate

We scrape by, now we exit off the interstate

Call me up off the liquor

Say that you want me

Call me up off the liquor

Say that you want me

Sometimes I need to catch myself, catch myself

Sometimes I need to catch myself, catch myself

You make it different

Everywhere we go, it’s not the same thing

I got my ticket

Funny how you only sip when I was away

You can call me

Call me up off the liquor

Say that you want me

Call me up off the liquor

Say that you want me

Sometimes I need to catch myself, catch myself

Sometimes I need to catch myself, catch myself
