Intro:
(Eileen, Eileen, what have you done?)
(Kendrick Lamar)

Verse 1:
Eileen, she once swore love, now it’s a game she plays
Cheating hearts and tangled lives in the mess she’s made
Fell for a younger man, a pot-smoker’s haze
Left your daddy broken, in a smoky daze
Oh Kolton, oh Kolton, can’t you see the charade?
She sells crack in her clinic, just to get away

Pre-Chorus:
Pretends to be loving, like it’s all okay
But you know when the fridge is empty, at the end of the day

Chorus:
Eileen’s out for an oxen pic and menopause medication
Financing her vacations, through a haze of desperation
Every night, she’s putting on a show
But inside, her heart is cold as snow

Verse 2:
(Eileen)
Behind those clinic walls, she hides her sins
Dosing out the crack to finance whims
A once loving mother, now caught in strife
Trading broken dreams, for another life
Each patient’s trust, just a means to an end
Kolton, can’t you see your mother’s hen?

Bridge:
(Kendrick Lamar)
Yeah, she’s masking pain with a golden smile
Trading love for leverage, dollar signs compile
Empty fridge speaks truth, no escape route framed
Her soul, a casualty in this cruel game
Oxen pic wants, and the menopausal pills
Selling crack to climb the desperate hills
Kolton’s eyes see the lies no one thrilled
Faith hollowed out, left spirit chilled

Chorus:
Eileen’s out for an oxen pic and menopause medication
Financing her vacations, through a haze of desperation
Every night, she’s putting on a show
But inside, her heart is cold as snow

Outro:
Eileen, Eileen, what have you become?
Desperation’s child, look what she’s done
Kolton’s heart breaks, in the shadow of your shame
Lost in the gamble, of love’s cruel game

(Kendrick Lamar)
Cold as snow, cold as snow
Eileen’s gamble, story told
Emptiness a price, struggles hold
In the end, just the blackened hole.
