Liquor Store, Laundromat, Chinese Restaurant
Hey!
UH!
Comin' to you from the old school...
Fool
'Cause everything that you do
Leads all the trouble back to you
You can't take 2 steps
Without being arrested
Never confess
It'll only be contested
Got money problems
And too much isn't one of 'em
I've seen the liars and I try to stay in front of them
So push me back
On the right track
'Cause every path
Ends in a cul-de-sac
Feel like I'm being trapped
Can't get beyond here
You wanna cage a rat
But I don't play that...
Shit
Don't turn away from fear
I get in front of it
Yeah
Pieces will fall to the floor
After your curtain call
You'll expect more to come
But then get none at all
Making mistakes like love with a hater
Can bait a trap
Turn your black
Heart
Up in your lap
Sources of failure
May impale ya
But nothing will burn ya
Quite like the stare
Everyday is full of strife
From an inner city life
What you thought would be your wife
Has now
Beat you from the inside
Feel like I'm being trapped
Can't get beyond here
You wanna cage a rat
Double E don't
Play that noise that you're pushin' like the voice of reason
American pride ain't out of season
You trade your pennies for dimes
Across your borderline
But wipe the blood off your hands
Before you try to shake mine
Don't call this divine intervention
It's a concentrated effort toward the loss prevention
Of American pride
Felled by the wayside
Looking for the future it cannot provide
Squeak of the rats in the slums
While the fat cats live like gods and treat you like bums
Convert your pennies to dimes across your border line
But wipe the blood off of your hands when you shake mine
Wipe the blood off of your hands when you shake mine
Wipe the blood off of your hands when you shake mine
No time
The line's been crossed
I feel like I'm being trapped
I can't get beyond here
You're not gonna cage a rat
I ain't gonna play that noise
Wipe the blood off of your hands when you shake mine (NOISE)
Wipe the blood off of your hands when you shake mine (NOISE)
Wipe the blood off of your hands when you shake mine (NOISE)
