Desperado

[Intro:] Yea.. Yea man, yo Mr. Jones, b' I'm a motherfuckin' (”Desperado”) Yes, yes (yes, yes) Chea, turn me up Turn me up, turn me up, turn me up IT'S SMASH TIME!

[Verse 1:] Seven AM, I wake up to my little sister puttin' on make-up R. Kelly come on, she turn the bass up 'Move Ya Body Like A Snake,' WHAT? You need to take ya ass to school and get them fuckin' grades up My lil' brotha, he swear he 'bout to get some cake up Runnin' 'round all crazy rockin' a fake Jacob The lil' nigga keep raisin his voice to my mom I'ma have no choice but to do him some harm For now, I play the block wit' my cousin Tyrell 'Cause around him, pussy is not what I smell Fresh outta jail, the street, will I survive? Will I fail? Will I go to hell or go back wit 25 wit' a L See only time will tell if only crime prevail The rap now, only the phony kind can sell And I don't wanna have to keep runnin' from 5-0 I don't wanna live my life like no (”Desperado”)

[Chorus:] We come from the bottom of the street We stuck like gum to the bottom of ya feet If you front in ya rap, we catch you in the street (in the street) Run up on you wit the heat I'ma (”Desperado”) [Repeat]

[Bridge: talking] {various ad-libs} I pushed the lil' nigga unda the wing right? I mean, I practically raised this nigga He runnin' 'round the street now like he wanna be a muhfuckin' (”Desperado”)

[Verse 2] We was 2 lil' brothers of the same kind Quick to approach a lil shorty wit' the same line (GET FAMILIAR!) Co-defendants, arrested for the same crime 'Cause when the D's found the nine, we both said it aint mine Nobody snitchin', now we chillin on the same line Goin to trial to eat some of the same slime I'm tryin' to tell the nigga the thoughts of my changed mind How when I get out, I aint gettin' on the same grind I'm tired of seein' what crack smoke do to black folk That shit aint funny at all dawg it's like a bad joke He said, whateva' man, I'll do whateva to get the cheddar man Do like 50 Cent, sell “A Lil Bit” of ery'thang That made me wanna punch the kid in the mouth I jus wonder how long it take for him to figure this out I said, trust lil' nigga if you know like I know You wouldn't wanna go home to no muthafuckin' (”Desperado”)

[Bridge: talking] Word up shorty, don't be like me, you could be better than me You don't wanna grow up to be no muthafuckin' (”Desperado”) IT'S SMASH TIME

[Chorus]
