[Intro]

Yea, hopefully this'll explain a little bit better

Why I left, so abruptly

All it took was for somebody to ask why

You know? Look

[Verse 1]

It's been a nice ride

But like nice rides it comes to an end

So I'll step aside like the nice guy

They called my passion anger and then said that I was angry

But what it really was is the fact they couldn't contain me

Then they criticized my gang life

Then they said that I was a fundamentalist atheist in the same night

I keep my heat on my hip like I don't walk without it

And I've seen people get shot, but I don't talk about it

I live in the real world this ain't no fantasy

But I got your attention even if you ain't a fan of me

It's family that we all after

But now it's Greydon Square that has to close the chapter

Maybe someone look after everyone after I'm gone

I miss you all already

And for the record my name's not Greydon it's really Eddie

But I'ma keep it steady, yea I'ma keep it stompin'

How many quantum physics majors do you know from Compton?

See they expect me to fail, they expect me in jail

But they don't expect me to sell, that's why I stopped

But I'm not back on the block, I'm back in them books

Laughin' at crooks that's trying to swap a queen for a rook

And it only took four atheist nations and three babbles

Hopefully that was enough

I'm Greydon Square signin' off

Peace, love and happiness to everyone that's kind at heart

Much love to you all

[Hook]

It's just the same old thing that I go through every day

So maybe I'll stop now, I think I'll just stop now

Just look at how much of myself I gave away

So maybe I'll stop now, I think I'll just stop now

[Verse 2]

Yea, yea

I hope you people take my atheist nation and run wit it

Have fun wit it, until everything's done with it

And if you have an opinion make sure you come wit it

Some responded well to the videos and some didn't

I shouldn't have to defend myself from other atheists

I really thought that we were on the same side

After the blasphemy challenge, hell everything changed

I thought it was insane we were more divided than ever

But I pressed on and made a couple of more videos

Trying not to slug it out with silly foes

Then they said that I wasn't supporting other people

That I was doin' this and it was all about my ego

Are you serious? That's when I actually knew

That there was really nothing left to do

So I left

That's when I actually knew

That there was really nothing left to do

So I left

[Hook]

It's just the same old thing that I go through every day

So maybe I'll stop now, I think I'll just stop now

Just look at how much of myself I gave away

So maybe I'll stop now, I think I'll just stop now

[Outro: Spoken]

Ya know, when I did that song "Gone"

I actually did it with the, the full intention of not releasing any more music

Or doing any more "atheist nations", or anything like that

The funny thing about that song, though

Is that it ended up turning out to be the first song of this record that I actually completed

These next three songs though, I did before

In fact before I changed my name to "Greydon Square"

I had, I had written these songs. I wrote these songs, ya know

They're years old

In fact, "Dear Journal" is at least four years old

So, with that being said

I hope you guys enjoy 'em

They'll probably give you a different perspective about me

Besides the rigid, vigilant atheist, philosophical, ya know

Debater whatever the case may be

Than, you know, that you've gotten so far

So, I hope you guys enjoy it

I wanna specifically thank several people for making this possible:

Jason [?], Brian Sapient, Jeff Tosh, Antoine, Cedric, my mother Debra

So anyway, hopefully you guys enjoy it

And look out for The CPT Theorem

The next album in the trilogy

Talk to you later, peace
