Oh, ho-ho-ho! I knew I was gon' see- I knew I was gonna see you again! I knew I was gonna see you again Where's your goddamn book bag at? Always carryin' that lil' book bag Nobody wanna see that Goddamn 4th grader, sit yo' ass down! He wanna play it again like he got somethin' else to do You ain't got nothin' else to do! You ain't doin' nothin' with yo' life Nothing with yo' life! You think this is? You better look at me when I'm talkin' to you! You think this is easy, don't you? You think this is promised! Well, ain't nothin' promised with you! Look at my face, do I got a promise face? Does it look like I promised you anything? Kanye! Nig- is you snorin' in my class? Wake up, Mr. West!

It's hit and miss, just stepping out the door You run the risk of seeing more A steady stream of ghosts who've fallen hard Without saying a thing, give you the whole nine yards All I want to do is ride See the world anew with the same old eyes I keep hearing the same discordant lullaby Seems I see here is all merchandise It's telling me it's what it's all about Still I'm willing to give it the benefit of the doubt All I want to do is ride See the world anew with the same old eyes But I've been fooled before, open an eye To believe what was, the same, same old eyes The same old sleeping care Just waking up now, to the struggle ahead It's hit and miss, just stepping out the door You run the risk of seeing more A steady stream of ghosts who've fallen hard Without saying a thing, give you the whole nine yards All I want to do is ride See the world anew with the same old eyes

Every now and then sadness overflows And I get swept away in a tide of woes Looking for a hand that won't let go So when I'm down and out it'll search for me When I don't like what it is in the world I see I'll look into your heart and there I'll be Looking for a friend who'll stand by me Then I feel your love I feel your love And all this darkness disappearing I know I'm nearing the end Of a dead end dream Every once in awhile our doubts get loud 'Til everything bright and gay turns inside out Looking for a hand I'm feeling around So when I'm down for the count it'll search for me When I don't like what it is in the mirror I see I'll look into your eyes and there I'll be Looking for a hand that won't break free Then I feel your love I feel your love And all this sadness disappearing I know I'm nearing the end Of a dead end dream When our eyes are downcast We may fail to see Or realize that we have All the love that we need Looking for a hand that won't let go Then I feel your love I feel your love And all this darkness disappearing I know I'm nearing the end Of a dead end dream Nearing the end of a dead end dream Nearing the end of a dead end dream

Strange how their love bloomed in the Winter Only to vanish in the Spring It never fails to make him shiver To see the outline of her wings Where she made her last snow angel Little did they know That it'd make a lasting impression Deeper than the snow In his soul The snow angel never faded And when love calls to make that promise The one to be faithful and be true It's then temptation falls upon us The world turns awkward and aloof And with this betrayal An angel descended from on high Oh, but this was not a manger And as he came inside To his fright T'was no angel hanging naked Strange how each year 'round late November When the first snow is on the ground She reappears so he'll remember How a love so young can be cut down When she made her last snow angel Little did they know That it'd make a lasting impression Deeper than the snow In his soul The snow angel never faded In his soul The snow angel never faded
