Reguarding Elizabeth (save Me)

* Travis Barker plays drums throughout, no vocals

[Chino XL]

Yeah, uh, yeah!

I'm high, feelin like I'm walkin in clouds

Insane faces starin at me as I move through the crowd

Feelin like the whole world just took a wickedness vow

Ridiculous how haters replaced all religiousness now

Stop off in front of a church, I kneel and I bow

Black Rosary for all the pain I kept in my file

Never reciprocated all the hurt that my mom allowed

to happen to me, the amount of tears I shed could've drowned

Now, all I wanna do is make my little girls proud

And, pray my death is quiet but my funeral's loud

When, I'm feelin inspired reachin my inner child

I witnessed my illusion shatter with no angels around

I'm hopin this explains why my hate and my anger's abound

Abused and threatened with death if I had dare made a sound

Knocked to the floor, silently curled up on the ground

I guess blood's a rite of passage on the way to the crown (crown)

[Chorus: Chino XL]

Save me, I think I'm goin crazy

So won't you just pray for me

I'm fallin deeper than I've gone before

Made me, I'm thinkin that maybe

If somebody prays for me

I won't fall deeper than I've gone before

[Chino XL]

Uh... I think I'm losin it man

I knew she loved me but it wasn't the time

There was so much left for me to do so far from my prime

In hindsight I probably should've sacrificed with a model

A bedroom apartment was leakin, I was out of my mind

I was young, ain't know who I was, how could I respond?

That abortion went against my principles, am I wrong?

Really like sellin my spirit {?} in different forms

Three months in the stomach, that fetus knew my voice when I talk

Yeah, it was her decision too but I should've fought

And havin beautiful children later enhances the thought

I should've never waivered or caved in or stated a call

I hated all things livin, my descension and fall

Apologies in the song but I swear I was lost

Hope it wasn't painful when your little light was cut off

As my ex laid there bleedin started feelin remorse

I prayed there's forgiveness for me as I'm huggin this cross (cross)

[Chorus]

[Chino XL]

I just can't

I just can't get it together yo

I can't get it together

I see her outside playin now and then

Shoot at bruises on her arms like she fell off her Schwinn

Plus I was havin my own drama with the mom of my kids

Ironically, she became one of my daughter's friends

Such a tiny little thing, her name was Elizabeth

Her family stayed right down the hall from where we lived

Sometimes I thought I heard her screamin, man these walls are thin

Tried to sleep right after tuckin my princess in

Starin at the ceiling know I need to mind my own biz

But flashbacks of my own childhood would spin

of my step-father's abuse, little girl's innocent

I seen her father one time, he's a cop and a pig

Her momma ex-beauty queen turned heroin fiend

One day at the pool my family wanted to swim

I seen Elizabeth there, with a bruise on her chin

A cut on her ribs, bite mark on her chest

She cried, "Do you even have to ask?" when questioned "Who did this?"

I seen the fear through her eyes and scratched retina lid

Man I was gone in the head, and I just couldn't sit

I flipped! You might think that I am crazy

But I can't let him hurt this baby

I kicked in the door with no gun in my hand

"You wanna fight somebody motherfucker? You fight a man!" (man, man)

I'm in prison now for what I did

Her dad can never hurt Elizabeth again cause he's dead (yeah)

[Chorus]
