Black Cloud Lyrics by Crazy Town

Black Cloud Lyrics

    Now people say I’m jinxed.
    I got some kind of voodoo hex.
    Life is so complex.
    There’s no telling what can happen next.
    Life on the edge,
    Fuels the sickness in my head.
    It imbeds the type of thoughts
    That got a lot of brothers dead.
    The smarter brother knows
    To keep his foes close.
    And I’m the type of brother
    That’s smarter than most.
    A cold hearted overdose
    Of lyrical antidotes.
    The cure to make sure
    My karma can’t take me down.
    Up to the same old tricks.
    I wonder if I’ll stick around.
    Is a penny really lucky
    If you find it on the ground?
    What’s the problem with this town?
    I can’t figure it out.
    My karma’s crashing down
    In the form of a black cloud.

    [CHORUS:]
    I’ve got a little black cloud
    That follows me.
    Everywhere I go,
    It takes over me.
    [X2]

    I’m sick.
    I’ve got a real ill disposition.
    My intentions are pure
    But there’s a cure for my condition.
    My decisions
    Put me in the wrong positions.
    Chasing pipe dreams
    Of fame and recognition.
    The Epic.
    Not only a name,
    A definition.
    My game remains no matter the pain.
    I stay the charmer.
    The Don of Karma.
    I navigate it like the Dalai Lama
    I ain’t a saint.
    But I’ve got Joi de vie
    And I’m the one to blame
    If the cloud rains on me.
    I can’t complain about it
    Or even let regret
    Provoke the energy it takes
    For me to get upset.
    A bad boy since birth
    So I can’t forget
    What goes around
    Comes around
    And it ain’t got me yet.
    I’ve gotten wise in my age
    And tamed the threat of my rage.
    I’ve got a lot to learn
    And I’ve got money to spend.
    To pretend is reaping more
    Than sewing ever could mend.

    [CHORUS]

    Trade my torches for a dime
    The pressure’s fading away now
    Black cloud’s lifted for the light
    The pressure’s fading away now.
    A thousand cigarettes
    Won’t change the way we feel.
    The pressure’s fading now
    Can you bare the thought of knowing truth?
    Knowing truth.

    I was rapping in the rain,
    Hoping that my luck would change.
    And if there’s any truth
    To all those old sayings.
    Cuz if I killed a spider,
    Would my house catch on fire?
    If I walked under a ladder
    Would it matter?
    I tend to laugh
    When black cats cross my path.
    Break mirrors in half
    Just to test the aftermath
    Now here comes rain.
    I project my pain.
    Trying to make sense
    Of these crazy things.

    I’m a diamond in the rough.
    Could I suffer enough?
    I’m getting high for a living,
    Not giving a fuck.
    These hard times got me stuck.
    Stuck in a jam
    I’m the monkey on your back
    And the crack in the dam.
    Disastrous
    Took time to master this.
    And the past
    Is just a map to capture this.
    In the darkness.
    I’m forced to adapt to this.
    I would change the past
    If I could have one wish.
