Mac Miller — Perfect Circle Wake Up Call

[Part I: Perfect Circle] [Intro] (I shot the sheriff right after I shot the deputy) Ohh—ohh—ohh—ohh—ohh (Right after I shot the deputy) Ohh—ohh—ohh (I shot the sheriff) Yeah Ohh—ohh—ohh—ohh—ohh Ohh—ohh (I shot the sheriff right after I shot the deputy) Yeah [Verse 1] I came for whoever is in charge (Here) Suggest you go and get yourself a weapon and a guard (Here) They need some coffee, everybody sleeping on me Going around door-to-door, setting off alarms (Beep beep beep) All that horse shit, you should have left it at the barn Keep a stallion, tell her gallop to the store and get cigars, yeah Too many whips, gotta get a new garage made (That's the ball game) I might steal one just to drive it in a car chase Me and my bizarre ways (Lord have mercy) I moved up from a Private to a Sergeant, you can see it from the scarface Hidden in a dark place, swimming in a shark tank Give a bitch a little bit of change, she a game in an arcade (Time crisis) Not a second to lose I’m the motherfuckin' Bible, that’s forever the truth (Amen) And this is not another case of the celebrity blues I shot the sheriff and the deputy, too [Chorus] Murder, murder, murder, murder, what would you do? Have you ever had to hurt her? Just for something to do Can you draw a perfect circle? Lot of lies cover the truth, you got options, what do you do? I wash these pills down with liquor and fall Leave it to me, I do enough for us all (I do) Got what you need if you like breaking the law My mother raised me a God (Hey) (Come again, I'm a buffalo soldier) [Verse 2] Yeah Blame the drugs, got me sinning on a weekday Drunk as fuck, do a buck sixty on the freeway (Skrrt) Giving y'all the freebase, hidden in the middle of a briefcase That's hidden in a subwoofer, beat case Used to wanna know how a freak taste Now I’m in it in an instant like replay Broad’s a baton, pass her off like relay Why I’m so mad on my B-Day?, she say “I thought you got sober,” then I said “I wish you’d stop being a bitch and get to minding your business” Told me “Money has changed ya” I get to thinking, how rarely do I visit? How’d I get so egotistical? I’m a Buffalo Soldier Heaven is a mile away, the trouble, much closer I’m only 23 but my mind is older, and it’ll forever be Dead presidents to the homies, death to my enemies [Chorus] Murder, murder, murder, murder, what would you do? Have you ever had to hurt her? Just for something to do Can you draw a perfect circle? Lot of lies cover the truth, you got options, what do you do? I wash these pills down with liquor and fall Leave it to me, I do enough for us all Got what you need if you like breaking the law My mother raised me a God (Hey) (I'm a buffalo soldier, I'm a buffalo soldier) [?] [Bridge: Ab-Soul & Mac Miller] A goddess told me “good morning” when I woke up You know I had a good morning when I woke up Gotta thank God every morning that I woke up Would you remember me if I never woke up? Bye bye I've been a sinner, I’m just tryna stay Warm through the winter, and I’ll be on my way I’m just a drifter, the weather speaks in whispers I just need some shelter, give me shelter from the wind [Refrain] Woo-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh Woo-ooh-ooh Ooh-ooh [Segue] Your call has been forwarded to an automatic voice message system 412-9... *buttons dialed* is not available [Part II: God Speed] [Interlude: Miller McCormick] “Hey man, I wish you were here, happy holidays Um, I love ya. And I hope you have a good night/weekend/I hope I talk to you soon, alright, godspeed” [Verse] Oh yeah I thought I’d have it figured out by now Shit would be simple, problems would be in the past by now Me and the homies would be sittin' on millions Reminiscin' on times when we were so broke and livin' in Oakland just chillin' I thought I’d have it in the bag by now I thought that we’d be kickin' back by now I know that life is a bitch I know that life is a bitch, I thought we’d put her in a cab by now But I’m stressin', I can’t relax Swallowin' my pride and I’m hidin' what’s making me mad Everybody saying I need rehab 'Cause I’m speedin' with a blindfold on and won’t be long Until they watchin' me crash, and they don’t wanna see that They don’t want me to OD and have to talk to my mother Tell her they could have done more to help me And she’d just be crying Saying that she’d do anything to have me back All the nights I’m losing sleep It was all a dream, there was a time that I believed that But white lines be numbin' them dark times Them pills that I’m popping, I need to man up, admit it’s a problem I need to wake up before one morning I don’t wake up You make your mistakes, your mistakes never make ya I’m too obsessed with goin' down as a great one But if you wait too long they gon' find someone to replace ya So I guess this is a letter To all my brothers, Most Dope, that’s forever I love you more than words could express And this the part that Q start cryin', if he ain’t already yet I did my best to be a leader you respect At times I became weaker, got defeated by regret So tell my baby I love her And if she give me the chance I’ll put a seed inside her, make her a mother Just know that there’s a place Where all my people worry free and e'rybody straight Every devil don’t got horns, every hero ain’t got capes Opened up my eyes, shit, I’m finally awake, good morning Yeah, good morning
