Wax - Old Ways Lyrics






[Intro:]
I have no clue what fucking day it is
I can't believe I'm still doing this, man
I don't think my body can take this lifestyle much longer
I wasn't raised to act like this

[Verse 1:]
I ain't left my crib in seven days or more
I haven't showered in three days, haven't shaved in four
There's no reason to be showering and shaving for
When every day is a carbon copy of the day before
The only people that I see anymore
Are my roommates and the clerk at the convenience store
Me and him used to chat in a friendly way
Now he shakes his head and lectures me for drinking every day
Of course I understand him so clear
But I'm lost in the wonderland of cold beer
And the only thing I fear, is being sober, cause the tears
Would come out, so I choose to bum out and dumb out
My brain cells are like Duracells dying
A little juice left, but I'm sure as hell trying
To kill them all, Like Metallica dunny
Rock and Roll lifestyle minus the sex and the money
I'm a dummy

[Hook:]
I ain't left my house for days
I've gone back, back to to my old ways
I'm just drinking, sleeping, not eating
Treating everyday like it's the weekend
This is not how I was raised

[Verse 2:]
I don't search for, them women much
Even though I yearn for that feminine touch
It requires too much time and labor
And that's quite the opposite of my behavior
Man, I'm a lazy man, like an old recliner
I want a lazy girl, but I'm too lazy to find her
And I ain't got the time or money to wine her and dine her
Unless she likes Two Buck Chuck and Oscar Meyer
In the mirror I see my reflection
And I always ask it some kind of question
But it never seems to provide suggestions
No guidance or lessons, just my blank reflection
Slick Rick, where the fuck you get your mirror from?
Was it a magic shop or was it Pier One?
I steer clear from self-help books
Instead I spit stupid-ass rhymes and belt hooks like

[Hook]

[Verse 3:]
Man, I don't think I really know what's happening
Am I imagining or are these actual things?
Little moths flying with their flapping wings
Tickling me on my face while I rap and sing
I'm eating happy pills, I'm seeing Daffodils
I haven't opened up my mail, I see a stack of bills
I'm probably too late for the due date
Fuck it I'm a be late, crack another Tecate
Can't see straight but it feels like heaven
I'm dancing with the wolves, man, I feel like Kevin
Costner, I should win an Oscar for acting stupid
This mind state's when I make spectacular music
At least that's how it sounds in my ears
I'm a probably fucking die in less than five years
But it feels so good right now
I'm a make it so somehow I don't have to come down

[Hook]

    Damn that dancing with the wolves line like kevin...i thought he was talking about garnett..maybe he was lol

    F.... D....

    He's talking about the movie Dances With Wolves starring Kevin Costner from Waterworld. That KG line would have been sick though!

  2. J.... W....

    I'm Canadian and can't skate😐

  3. T.... C....

    2019 sounds better than 2011

  4. a.... k....

    wax is alive when am!!!

  5. V.... A....

    My life in a nutshell

  6. D.... B....

    When I listened to this song when I was living that lifestyle it was a fun song to smoke and drink to, here I am years later after being away from it, going right back to my old ways again over some girl who doesn't love me anymore, I am a love struck fucking idiot, but an idiot nonetheless

  7. J.... ....

    Sample is called Great day.

  8. B.... W....

    feel this!

  9. K.... ....

    5 years passed and Wax is still alive

    K.... ....

    To bad eom passed :-/

  10. D.... T....

    Man, im a rapper in the UK, and this song described me to an absolutely T lol. At least im not the only fucked up, lazy, metally ill, socially anxious rapper whose lost contact with the world.

  11. K.... B....

    This song deserves to be in an art museum.

  12. R.... ....

    song still goes as hard as ever... maybe that says something about my lifestyle choices.

  13. b.... U....

    "I want a lazy girl but I'm too lazy to find her. "
    Hahaha

  14. J.... v....

    I like how he kinda mixed rap and rock feeling to it, nice track.

  15. m.... j....

    just saw wax live a few weeks unexpectedly...Boston.

  16. S.... K....

    smoke some weed

    S.... K....

    Shane Keane always ...hhahaaha stay lifted

    S.... K....

    Shane Keane yeyeyeyeyeyye boy

  17. N.... W....

    This song is like a horoscope, it applies to most people at some point in their life so it's easy to get people to vibe to it. Just saying.

  18. L.... 1....

    Good shit

  19. E.... ....

    Love Wax, I'm right there with ya man.

  20. E.... S....

    love you wax

  21. R.... R....

    Best life dude.

  22. S.... M....

    This reminds me of myself except replace drugs with video games.

    S.... M....

    you are way too hardcore man, you need relax with your reckless lifestyle

    S.... M....

    you're retarded if you say that drugs are bad.
    I don't understand why some people have this stupid perception about some things that they may call "good" or "bad".

    The drugs are nothing but a tool. You can use them the way you want it.

    S.... M....

    @Alex Dragon Well, they are bad for your health.

    S.... M....

    Jimbo Holo
    Truth is A lot of drugs are not, get your facts right

  23. N.... ....

    This resonates with the last year or so of my life... more than I care to admit, actually.

  24. E.... A....

    the fact that i can relate to this song is making me depressd

  25. A.... ....

    Why isn't this on apple music

    A.... ....

    put the song on a USB, you can add any music you have to your iTunes that way. click the upper far left in iTunes and import from your USB. you will probably have to rename it, have a list handy so you can just type away so it doesn't take forever. it can also identify and put the album photo to the song for you if you let it.

    A.... ....

    +Elizabeth Webb Oh, i just did a youtube to mp3 thing and converted it to my phone

    A.... ....

    +Phil Rise yeah my aunt knows more about the conversion thing, I'm not sure how to yet. I thought I'd let you know you can USB it, it's easy peasy :) glad you got everything figured out. yeah, iTunes misses a lot of great music. they try.

    A.... ....

    Yehh I love wax

  26. i.... w....

    Lol sadly i can totally relate to this shit...love it.

  27. S.... S....

    Wax needs to get discovered before all good music goes to shit.

    T.... D....

    Too true.

    T.... D....

    @Taylor Dawson

  33. A.... L....

    Listening to this song helped me become better at making joints! Thanks Wax!

    A.... L....

  40. T.... ....

    lol idiot

  41. C.... C....

    Hmm an idiot listening to Wax, I wounder what that says about his fan base. Maybe you should shut up, you're making the fans look bad.

  42. K.... L....

    That's irrelevant, income and talent are not synonymous in the music industry.

  43. p.... ....

    I don't search for them wom-en much even though I yearn for that femin-nine touch.

  44. G.... ....

    someone needs to make a comment over your head meme for you

  55. G.... ....

  56. T.... ....

    Maybe your life is nothing special and is generic enough to write about you lazy fuck

  57. L.... ....

    If top two don't work use the third. It's flawless.

  58. s.... ....

  73. L.... ....

    This track is not on the scrublife mixtape. Anybody got an mp3 of this track?

  74. p.... ....

    Nah man. Maverick probably sampled the same Simon Haseley tune

  75. P.... C....

    That's why it's called a mixtape duhhh!!!

  76. P.... C....

    beat is sampled from Maverick Sabre-Let Me Go

  77. l.... ....

    The Fyre Dept and Wax are a deadly combo!

  78. g.... w....

    this is how i see life, i dont give a fuck, i just live it and die in the end, we all do, so theres no point in giving a fuck

  79. c.... ....

    i can't let it die by ugly duckling

  80. c.... ....

    it's taken from ugly duckling, "I won't let it die"

  81. T.... ....

    Reminds me of my view of life back at last Dec.
