Read the complete Ball & Chain Lyrics by Daniel Caesar from the album DC6 along with song credits, release information and other details about the song.

[Verse 1]
Backslides, ripping around
In my chest, in my heart
Diamond rings floating around
Inside of my brain
First time I seen a dead body
Was with you in Lagos
You showed me some things
My sweet ball n’ chain

[Verse 2]
Yeah, I told a lie

Fu*k you mean I’m a liar?
I yearn in my bones
Of course I did the crime
Your boy was on fire
I’ve done nothing wrong

[Verse 3]
‘Bout three decades ago
Ma said there was no Santa
Made it my mission in life to tell the whole school
Chosen ones out in the desert
Praying for manna
I know that it’s true
I’ll prove it to you

[Verse 4]
Yeah, I’ll die alone
Fu*k you think that this life is?
You’ll die alone too
But thеre’ll be peoplе around
Yeah, there’s something wrong
I’m always in crisis
You all would be too
If you could just hear the sounds
