[Verse 1]
I've seen the crystal ball
And I got a lot to mend
I drank a thousand nights
I had a million friends

I watched the world go round
At speeding light and then
Sometimes she walks the hall
I hope it never ends

[Chorus]
No other woman gets to me the way you do
Baby I would change my ways
If I could be with you
Make me your lover
I'll make your dreams come true
Baby I would change my ways
If I could be with you

[Verse 2]
Sometimes it takes a light
To see the room you're in
You got it all around
You recognize the sun
I don't wanna use the sun
To melt away my blues
I need you to keep me warm
And give me something true

[Chorus (Repeat)]

[Verse 3]
I've seen the crystal ball
And I got a lot to mend
Do you save a helpless flame
Or rather watch it burn
I need to read from you
'Cause I gotta lot to learn

[Chorus (Repeat)]

[Verse 1]
I've seen the crystal ball

Sometimes she walks the hall

[Chorus]
No other woman gets to me the way you do
Baby I would change my ways
If I could be with you
Make me your lover
I'll make your dreams come true
Baby I would change my ways
If I could be with you

[Verse 2]
Sometimes it takes a light
To see the room you're in
You got it all around
You recognize the sun
I don't wanna use the sun

[Chorus (Repeat)]

I used to live my life in fear.
Thinking that my ways were wrong.
I lived my life by a book, written by Man.

I jumped more evils than your man Knevil,
not looking forward to a genocidal sequel.
Soul searching dark corners it's no lurking.
Believe in self to better your mental health...

Got to change my, gotta get away, get away, gotta change my ways!!
Got to change my, gotta get away, get away, gotta change my ways!!
Got to change my, gotta get away, get away, gotta change my ways!!
Got to change my, gotta get away, get away, gotta change my ways!!

I used to live my life in fear.
Thinking that my ways were wrong.
I lived my life by a book, written by Man.
Nailed for substance so what's the use?
You're picking on a black man was my excuse.
Sent me into exile, hard labor penal.
Four years out and my attitude's real foul!

Got to change my, gotta get away, get away, gotta change my ways!!
Got to change my, gotta get away, get away, gotta change my ways!!
Got to change my, gotta get away, get away, gotta change my ways!!
Gotta get away, got to change...

Hard headed nigga and set in my ways, but I can reminisce
of iller days, wild child living foul.
You gimme 3 feet or I get hostile, all for self and not for all
yo, one of these days I was bound to take a fall.
I realized that I couldn't get away.
I guess I'll die in my fucked up ways,
in my fucked up ways,
in my fucked up ways.

Parental prison cruel decision for no reason all because I am not pleasing.
What the fuck you want me to do?
No love.
All you do is just shove money, lies, it shouldn't be no suprise
that I am real and you have to deal with my ways.
Shifty in many ways, no charades.
Momma and daddy treat me a better way.

Got to change my, gotta get away, get away, gotta change my ways!!
Got to change my, gotta get away, get away, gotta change my ways!!
Got to change my, gotta get away, get away, gotta change my ways!!
Got to change my, gotta get away, get away, gotta change my ways!!
Gotta get away, gotta change...
