God damn, man, I almost had it
Stuck in the sewer beneath all the maggots
I ain't foolin', I've been pursuing
A way to get out of these dirty old ruins
I'm checkin' out, I'm never comin' back again
I'm checkin' out, I'm listed M.I.A.
God damn it, man, I almost had it
Threw me out the door and called me a faggot
I ain't done , I've only yet begun
West Oakland is the place where I'm comin' from
I'm checkin' out, I'm never comin' back again
I'm checkin' out, I'm listed M.I.A.
God damn it, man, I almost had it
Well I did it again, yeah
I do it outta habit
Well I'm numb, it ain't no fun
I'm less than zero when you add up the sum
I'm checkin' out, yeah
It ain't no doubt, yea
A courtship built from anger is what it amounts
I almost had it
I almost had it
I came so close man
I almost had it
I'm checkin' out, I'm never comin' back again
I'm checkin' out, I'm listed M.I.A.
I'm checkin' out, I'm never comin' back again
I'm checkin' out, I'm listed M.I.A.
