And you ain't stoppin'
N not goin' stop it
Cause I'm sick and tired of motherfucker I don't give a

So come on lets go

Cause where I'm goin', I don't know

Nice to read this. I agree with you. Heard that album a lot! Greetings from Brazil

That part from 3:11 is the best part of this song and one of the best in the whole album. It sounds like it came out of a dream.
This song deserved its own video clip, it would have brought it to major fame.
