I Keep Calling - Sage Francis

Chorus

Intro:

Pick up, Pick up...Pick up, Pick up...

Verse One:
Now I can't even think back. Self-induced amnesia has made its impact 
Mental health produced at leisure was frayed once it was intact 
I voluntarily refuse to remenisce 
If I could choose any wish...I'd lose my genesis 
And prove to my nemesis that I don't need Memory Lane on my way home

Now an unbeaten path...unfunny memories are now making me laugh.

Since out the uterus...Earth encounters ain't been that humerous 
heheheheh...my laugh lines have been faked for the last time 
I'm past my prime. Climaxing again is a task of mine 
I'm homeward bound. Break out the map and atlas 
I ask gas station attendants...and they just act pissed 
I'm black listed...for not staying true to white lies 
I fight lies...in darkness...heartless...until the nig
