Seems like your heart stops workin The minute they close the curtain You take off your mask and take off your costume And if anyone asks, you're taking a smoke break And drinking some coffee But everyone knows what you're doing Seems like the bus moves slower Just 'cause you got somewhere to go So you take a few pills in Beverly Hills But if anyone asks, you've got a prescription You got an addiction Who do you think that you're foolin? (Chorus: Priscilla) John Doe! I just want the John I know Once you put the drinks on hold Maybe you could come back home John Doe Oh oh oh... (Verse: B.o.B) Uh, everybody's addicted to something Everybody gotta grip onto something Even if it's just to feel the responsive appeal Maybe once, maybe twice, maybe hundreds of times Hundreds of times Without it it's just harder to function at times You race to the bottom of every single bottle As if there was someone or something to find You struggle in yo mind and you chose strobe light Have to lie til you get to the point where it's no longer vibin The people that you work with notice the signs When you walk in the room, niggas know that's required So you break up the silence You say you've been at the gym But the way that you look can't blame on a diet So what you hidin? (Chorus: Priscilla) John Doe! I just want the John I know Once you put the drinks on hold Maybe you could come back home John Doe Oh oh oh... (Verse: B.o.B) I probably had too many things, smashed too many freaks Had too much to drive, I mean had too much to drink Left the club, ended up in custody Ran them drug tests, passed it luckily My girl broke with me cus she walked in and suddenly With a woman up under me I told er "Wait! It ain't what it look like I must've slipped and fell, clumsy me" Well at least I admit Cus the worst you could do is to do it and not be man enough to say that you did it That's just how you prevent it But I ain't no different I love all the money, the fame and the parties with beautiful women I spent so much time as an underground artist Cus I was afraid to succumb to the business and what I've become But that what you judge will become The path with the greatest resistance That's how the tables can turn when they pivot And change your perspective and flip your entire position My whole life I've been dyin and wishin To live and experience everything possible When I told em my dreams they just said it ain't logical Now I can see it, it's optical Oh oh oh... (Chorus: Priscilla) John Doe! I just want the John I know Once you put the drinks on hold Maybe you could come back home John Doe
