King Of Rock Bottom - Mr. J. Medeiros

From an outsider looking in

Its like look at him another man that couldn’t win

Another stand with a crooked grin

On the other hand he blames the land that took him in

A product of environment

The book the pen they wonder where the fire went

He shook the hands of the one he admires

He’s hooked again

In the club he acquires a small taste for loneliness

He’s always saying how it’s only us

He flys in with the three wise men

He buys into the Jack, John, Jim

This is where the Captain swims on a sinking ship

He’s the only passenger and he ain’t thinking quick

He drinks he sips he took it down

He winks and tips his crooked crown

Look it now He’s spoiled by the Royal one

Coiled in the corner father guilt he the loyal son

Waiting on his joy to come in the form of another pour

Yo, pour me one

Cus if he only knew

How much he meant to you

So many prayers that never got sent to you

The Devil got him resenting you

For all the things he did and never meant to do

He’d have the nights over heaven

More then half the time

When life gave him lemons he grabbed a lime

Is it his faults or the Gin’s the Malt on his chin

The salt of the earth is now the salt on his rim

It’s the call of the Jim to see the Beams of his ceiling

If his walls were any thinner

You could see he was kneeling

On his bathroom tile but not in prayer

Passed out by the smile that got him there

Another bout in a self-doubt nightmare

Got him in a glass house with this right hand

Holding a Mic stand denying what his life is

Hold him to the light and you’ll find he’s self-righteous

Can you believe the one that won’t bleed

Is asking you to cut yourself indeed

Looking at the flower brother check the seed

You shook by the power of a reckless greed

A washed up hero enjoying his drink again

Maybe in the morning he will think again

Until then the only sunrise he know

Gets mixed with an orange juice and Cuervo Gold

Cus if he only knew

How much he meant to you

So many prayers that never got sent to you

The Devil got him resenting you

For all the things he didn’t and never meant to do
