King of Sorrow (U Didn’t Care Remix)

[Intro] (Sample-based)
King of sorrow

[Verse 1]
What up, Em? It's ya biggest fan
It's not even necessary to introduce who I am by now
'cause we're good friends
Remember the letter I wrote, before Atlanta on Up In Smoke
That's the day I was gonna cut ya throat
I guess my watch was broke, 'cause by the time I woke
I seen my watch was 12 hours late and I missed the show
But nonetheless, I'm glad that I finally reached you
Ever since the accident I've been dying to spеak to you
To tell you things have changed, that I'm a diffеrent man
A different level of understanding, I'm a different Stan
Things are a lot better
I promise I won't harass you with any letters
Saying things like "We should be together"
I meant we should start a group
The industry's full of homosexuals, Slim
But I don't wanna touch you
I got a new attitude, really, I ain't mad at you
I just wanted you to recognize that I got talent, too

[Hook] (Sample & Canibus):
Sorrow
You didn't care
You didn't care
King of sorrow

Sorrow
You didn't care
You didn't care
King of sorrow
I just wished you'd care
Sorrow

[Verse 2]
When I say talented, I don't mean battle, slim
I mean storytelling, kinda like how ya' album is
I been attending counseling and taking medicine
They did some tests on me at NIH in Maryland
They showed me techniques to help me deal with pressure
Whenever I remember that crazy night when I was being reckless
Driving with a deathwish, on the bridge I crashed into a Lexus
Right before I finished that last sentence
I was listening to Xzibit's album "Restless"
The next thing I knew I was underwater and breathless
I was unconscious for a second, literally dying to go to heaven
'Til some fellas came and pulled me from the wreckage
They started CPR, then they called the paramedics
In retrospect, I probably shoulda used a gun to end it
By the time the car had sunk
My pregnant girlfriend was still in the trunk
And I was still feeling kinda drunk
The ambulance came and they put me on the stretcher
Hooked me up to the IV and checked my blood pressure
One of them was so concerned that he wouldn't leave
He hopped in the back of the ambulance and rolled up some trees
My vision was blurry, I couldn't really see
I just remember his voice talking to me
In the emergency room, I needed surgery to get
Some glass removed and 50 stitches for my wounds

[Hook] (Sample & Canibus):
Sorrow
You didn't care
You didn't care
King of sorrow

Sorrow
You didn't care
You didn't care
King of sorrow
Sorrow

[Verse 3]
After a couple months of therapy
I figured I was as ready as I'll ever be
I wanted to be an emcee
He took me to shows with him, he let me flow with him
He let me write some rhymes and go on tour with him
I really believed in him, I decided to team with him
And now I'm overseas with him, getting cheese with him
And I'm emceeing with him, I'm having the best time of my life
And I'm writing the best rhymes of my life
He introduces me to people as his lyrical equal
Let me write a rhyme on his album
And even produce a beat too
He ain't see-through, I can't see him fronting
He's not the type to call you
Just because he needs something
That's what I like about him
I wouldn't want to rock a mic without him
He's got cojones and he's not a coward
Matter of fact, I think he met you
It was the day you came to his video shoot
With DJ, Jimmy's nephew
'Clef stepped to him and told him he should step to you
That you was ghostwriting for 'L, but that wasn't true
You was looking at him the same way I'm looking at you
Why can't we be friends 'Em, I don't want nothing from you
You see there's a little bit of Stan in all of us
Tell me where you think all of these record sales spawn from
Talking 'bout Britney and Christina Aguilera, NSync, too
Have you ever looked in a mirror?
Your hair ain't really blonde, and ya eyes ain't blue
So never diss me, 'cause when you diss me, you're dissin' you

[Hook]
