Slickville
Ricky Hil Lyrics

Welcome to slickville, yeah,
Welcome to a place known as slickville

(all my tears start in a wishing well?),
The singer is sad and feels like their tears will never stop

I gave her cocaine and x caps,
The singer gave Mary drugs (cocaine and ecstasy pills)

but she just wanted heroin and hil,
Mary wanted a different drug (heroin) and the artist (Ricky Hil)

so I gave myself 2,
The artist took two doses of drugs

cold is rushing through my veins, and today I don't feel no pain,
The drugs are affecting the singer's body and they are numb to pain

I know you don't know my name, but we be going places and we feel the same,
The singer is unknown to some people but they can relate to others

but you don't be leaning like I am, and how I stand, rebel man,
The artist feels rebellious and others don't feel the same way

down for whatever man, down for whatever man, rebel man
The artist is willing to do anything and is a rebel

If I ain't there, tomorrow, just know that I've lived, with sorrow
The artist has lived a life of sadness and may not be around in the future

Mary told me that she dying, I said I can't be with you right now but im crying,
Mary is dying and the singer is sad but can't be there for her

D O P E in her veins, sounds a rain by the window pane,
Mary has drugs (heroin) in her veins and it sounds like rain by the window

she feels pains I feel pain, ain't it funny
Mary is in pain and the singer can relate to her pain

that she hate sniffing cocaine, wrote a letter to her mother
Mary didn't like the drug (cocaine) that the singer gave her and wrote a letter to her mother

told her that I love her, never find another and I hate to see her suffer.
The singer loved Mary and hates to see her suffer

Now you know that i've been this close, you know, that i've never had that dose,
The listener knows that the artist has been close to something but never had a certain experience

you know that we could be alone forever, but you don't take advantage of that when we together.
The artist and the listener could be together forever but the listener doesn't take advantage of that

now I put the flower on marys grave and a little small baggy coz she loves fine beige,
The singer puts a flower on Mary's grave and a small bag of drugs because Mary loved high-quality goods

I love that bitch, and she love me too, she in peace looking down on you.
The singer loved Mary and she loved him too, and now she is at peace watching over the listener

welcome to slickville, all our skys are gray, just watch the children play
Welcome to slickville, where everything is dreary and the only happiness comes from watching children play
