Outta My System

Jim Edward Olliges Jr.

They told me not to smoke drugs, but I wouldn't listen
Never thought id get caught and wind up in prison
Chalk it up to youth but young age I ain't dissin'
I guess I just had to get it out of my system
Outta my system, outta my system
Oh lord I'd never do it now
I know what I ain't missin'

Glad I went and got it all out of my system
The lust of youth versus marriage and security
Im glad im here now, but just between you and me
I had to get out and make the deals
And learn to know how it feels but that it ain't real
Outta my system, outta my system

There's a way to have it all you know I ain't kidding
Some things I know I'll never get out of my system
If you don't live now, you ain't even tryin'
And then you're on your way to a mid-life crisis
Live it out, any way you feel
You can feel it in your bones, but try to deny it
Wipe it off your face but your eyes won't hide it
You knew it all along, but never made it clear

They told me not to steal cars, but I wouldn't listen
Never thought I'd get caught and wind up in prison
Chalk it up to young age- but youth I ain't dissin'
I guess I just had to get it out of my system
Outta my system, outta my system
Oh lord I'd never do it now
I know what I ain't missin'
Glad I went and got it all out of my system
