Outta My System

They told me not to smoke drugs, but I wouldn’t listen
 Never thought I’d get caught and wind up in prison
 Chalk it up to youth but young age I ain’t dissing
 I guess I just had to get it outta my system
 Outta my system… outta my system
 Oh Lord I’d never do it now I know what I ain’t missing
 Glad I went and got it all outta my system

 The luster of youth versus married security
 I’m glad I’m here now, but just between you and me
 I had to get it out and make the deals
 And learn to know how it feels, but that it ain’t real
 Outta my system… outta my system
 There’s a way to have it all you know I ain’t kidding
 Some things I know I’ll never get outta my system

 If you don’t live now, you ain’t even trying
 And then you’re on your way to a midlife crisis
 Livin' it out anyway you feel
 You can feel it in your bones, but try to deny it
 Wipe it off your face but your eyes won’t hide it
 You knew it all along but never made it clear

 They told me not to steal cars, said I’d wind up in prison
 Thought I knew it all yea I wouldn’t listen
 Chalk it up to young age but youth I ain’t dissing
 I guess I just had to get it outta my system
 Outta my system… outta my system
 I’m glad I did it all then I know what I ain’t missing
 Glad I went and got it all outta my system
 I’m glad I did it all now I know what I ain’t missing
 Glad I went and got it all outta my system
 I’m glad I did it all now I know what I ain’t missing
 Glad I went and got it all outta my system
