Times have dried and the well went first

Starving to death - nah I think I'm dying of thirst

I get inspired on a momentary basis

A livewire - been flow so many places

For various faces like I never knew the mob

I was married to the matrix

I'm making placements but living in my basement

So what's a verse if I ain't really ain't say shit

I paid the mortgage and the storage and it keep pourin'

Can't afford it so I gotta keep on tourin'

Trying to make a record in between was never foreign

But unfamiliar when there's no way to afford it

No way I was loyal to believing in cream

But when the well runs dry we go beyond our means

And above most are really just lookin' for love

And shed a tear don't mean you know the sound of a dove

When the well runs dry and the people go home

And it's the end of the song and ya

Tears won't fall so you just can't cry

When the well runs dry for ya

Like the car stopped running

And the checks stopped coming

Somebody let the sun in

When your card's declined give it one more try

'Till the well runs dry

Mom was old school and I was just a child

Never knew that when she died it would have me actin' wild

Have me actin' crazy maybe out of my mind

But never lazy we actin' on borrowed time

A leader for no reason used to start up a cause

Just believing in my odds became a part of my laws

Went from dreaming to receiving these screaming applause

Hear nothing but believin' for no reason at all

A product of a parent leaving is apparently wrong

F**k appearances appear in here then 'poof' you gone

I took a look at my life and my reflection long

And that's the same fear mirrored when I hear this song

I just wanna go where I belong

I just wanna go to places where I feel strong

And I tell them why

When the fame goes the same when the well goes dry

When the well runs dry and the people go home

And it's the end of the song and ya

Tears won't fall so you just can't cry

When the well runs dry for ya

Like the car stopped running

And the checks stopped coming

Somebody let the sun in

When your card's declined give it one more try

'Till the well runs dry

Lack of sleep sometimes I can't dream

Eyes so red already tried Visine

Stacking cheddar wasn't checking amounts

Then went from savings right back down to checking accounts

I smacked the Miss Piggy bank with the hammer out

A real hammer not the guns that they ramble about

Develop hardship buying in a sellers market

Almost quit smoking weed but I better spark it

Then weeks go by and I see no people

Trapped in a home broke with bills trying to pay for

Wonder why the album was late - need I say more

I love this rap but I'm living in life

The kind that keep me up to these sleepless nights

And I don't need love but I need this mic

To feed the energy that's keepin' me right

When the well runs dry and the people go home

And it's the end of the song and ya

Tears won't fall so you just can't cry

When the well runs dry for ya

Like the car stopped running

And the checks stopped coming

Somebody let the sun in

When your card's declined give it one more try

'Till the well runs dry

Yeah - it's till the wheels fall off

It's 'till the well runs dry

We gon' get it

Once you've been down

Only way to go is up

It's for my dog right there

You gon' get it
