Something so benign for me construed as cruelty
Such a difference between who I am and who you see

Conclusions you come to of me routinely incorrect
I don’t know who you’re talking to with such fucking disrespect

This shit’s making me crazy
The way you nullify what’s in my head
You say one thing do another
And argue that’s not what you did
Your way’s making me mental
How you filter as skewed interpret
I swear you won’t be happy til
I am bound in a straight jacket

Talking with you’s like talking to a sive that can’t hear me
You fight me tooth and nail to disavow what’s happening

Your resistance to a mirror I feel screaming from your body
One day I’ll introduce myself and you’ll see you’ve not yet met me

This shit’s making me crazy
The way you nullify what’s in my head
You say one thing do another
And argue that’s not what you did
Your way’s making me mental
How you filter as skewed interpret
I swear you won’t be happy til
I am bound in a straight jacket

Grand dissonance
The strings of my puppet are cut
The end of an era
Your discrediting’s lost my consent

Look at us in this kitchen
Look at us rallying all our defenses
Look at us waging war in our bedroom
Look at us jumping ship in our dialogues

There is no difference
In what we're doing in here
That doesn't show up as big as it does out there
So why spend all our time undressing our bandages
When we've the ultimate key to the cause
Right here all underneath.

Look at us form our cliques in our sandbox
Look at us being cruel kids with both our hearts blocked
Look at us turn away from all the rough spots
Look at dictatorship on my own block

There is no difference

In what we're doing in here
That doesn't show up as big as it does out there
So why spend all our time undressing our bandages
When we've the ultimate key to the cause
Right here all underneath.

How I've spun my wheels
With carts before my horse
And shine on the outside springs from gloom
Spotlight on these seeds of simpler reasons
And score bourne into corn, stretching my limit

There is no difference
In what we're doing in here
That doesn't show up as big as it does out there
So why spend all our time undressing our bandages
When we've the ultimate key to the cause
Right here all underneath.

I start up in the north I grow from special seed
I sprinkle it with sensibility
from French and Hungarian snow
I linger in the sprouting until my engine's full

Then I move across the sea
To European bliss
To language of poets
As I cut the cord of home
I kiss my mother's mother
look to the horizon

wide eyed, new ground
humbled by my new surroundings

I am a citizen of the planet
My president is kwan yin
My frontier is on an airplane
my prisons: homes for rehabilitating

Then I fly back to my nest, I fly back with my nuclear but everything is different
So I wait, my yearn for home is broadened, patriotism expanded by callings from beyond
So I pack my things nothing precious all things sacred

I am a citizen of the planet
My laws are all of attraction
My punishments are consequences
Separating from source the original sin

I am a citizen of the planet
democracy's kids are sovereign
Where the teachers are the sages
And pedestals fill with every parent

And so, the next few years are blurry, the next decade's a flurry of smells and tastes unknown
Threads sewn straight through this fabric through fields of every color one culture to another

I come alive and I get giddy I am taken and globally naturalized
I am a citizen of the planet
From simple roots through high vision
I am guarded by the angels
My body guides the direction I go in

I am a citizen of the planet
My favorite pastime edge stretching
Besotten with human condition
these ideals are borne from my deepest within

Like red on a rose
When your lips first smiled at me
I was captured instantly
To each his own

Like blue in the sky
The gaze of your willing eyes
Touched something deep inside
The truth be known

That I love you like all little children love pennies
And I love you ?cause I know that I can?t do anything wrong
You?re where I belong
Like red on a rose

And I love you like all little children love pennies
And I love you like good times of which I?ve known many
And I love you ?cause I know you give me a heart of my own
You make my blood flow
Like red on a rose

I have known it
And I have felt it
I have known a woman's love
And I have tasted
And I have wasted
A woman's love

And I know
I know I'll never understand it
All the little things that make it grand and
A woman's love
And I know
I know I'll never come face to face
With anything that takes the place
Of a woman's love

Well I have kissed it
Tried to resist it
I have missed a woman's love
And I have hated
Taken for granted
A woman's love

And I know
I know I'll never understand it
All the little things that make it grand and
A woman's love
And I know
I know I'll never come face to face
With anything that takes the place
Of a woman's love

Well I have needed
And I have pleaded
And I have lost a woman's love
And I have worshipped
And I have cursed it
A woman's love

And I know
I know I'll never understand it
All the little things that make it grand
A woman's love
And I know
I know I'll never come to face to face
With anything that takes the place
Of a woman's love

And I know
I know I'll never come face to face...

1st Verse

Born the middle son of a farmer
And a small town Southern man
Like his daddy's daddy before him
Brought up workin' on the land
Fell in love with a small town woman
And they married up and settled down
Natural way of life if you're lucky
For a small town Southern man

2nd Verse

First there came four pretty daughters
For this small town Southern man
Then a few years later came another
A boy, he wasn't planned
Seven people livin' all together
In a house built with his own hands
Little words with love and understandin'
From a small town Southern man

Chorus

And he bowed his head to Jesus
And he stood for Uncle Sam
And he only loved one woman
(He) was always proud of what he had
He said his greatest contribution
Is the ones you leave behind
Raised on the ways and gentle kindness
Of a small town Southern man
(Raised on the ways and gentle kindness)
(Of a small town Southern man)

3rd Verse

Callous hands told the story
For this small town Southern man
He gave it all to keep it all together
And keep his family on his land
Like his daddy, years wore out his body
Made it hard just to walk and stand
You can break the back
But you can't break the spirit
Of a small town Southern man

(Repeat Chorus)

4th Verse

Finally death came callin'
For this small town Southern man
He said it's alright 'cause I see angels
And they got me by the hand
Don't you cry, and don't you worry
I'm blessed, and I know I am
'Cause God has a place in Heaven
For a small town Southern man

(Repeat Chorus)

I gotta find a way to get outta here [x2]
This ain’t the way that I wanna live, no
This ain’t the way somethin’ gotta give
In a rush, rush (gotta keep on movin’)
I’m in a rush, rush (gotta keep on movin’) [x3]

[Akon]
Cause I find myself on the fast track side to life, drivin’ me crazy
In the hood daylight to night and you can find me grindin’ daily
And it ain’t gon’ change as long as we getting money keep the same mind frame
Same hood, betta pop that thang, same big whip on the block same fly dame
Wit my lady just rollin’, with the sunshine and the wind blowin’
Gotta keep my mind cleared from all this crime hopefully one day learn from it, but

[Akon]
I gotta find a way to get outta here [x2]
This ain’t the way that I wanna live, no
This ain’t the way somethin’ gotta give
In a rush, rush (gotta keep on movin’)
I’m in a rush, rush (gotta keep on movin’) [x3]

[Kardinal Offishall]
Girl, it’s like I can’t see the sun, six in the mornin’ I’m still on the run
Day to the night rushin’ around town tryin’ to get this done for the case come down
Gotta feed my fate, face to face with no place to race except straight
I can feel them close on my heels, gotta keep goin’ so I’m takin’ the wheel
Tryin’ to outrun my fears, outrun my peers, outrun the killers and escape them years
Yet again, so I take out my pen and say “If you find this letter please pray for me”

[Akon]
I gotta find a way to get outta here [x2]
This ain’t the way that I wanna live, no
This ain’t the way somethin’ gotta give
In a rush, rush (gotta keep on movin’)
I’m in a rush, rush (gotta keep on movin’) [x3]

[Akon]
Now can you picture me growin’ up on the bad side of town
Where them outlaws are hangin’ out all the women get down
Where cash moneys the only answer to problems around
And if ya missin’ your people most likely they underground
This cruel world, this cruel world
Leave this town forever, break away and just start err

[Akon]
I gotta find a way to get outta here [x2]
This ain’t the way that I wanna live, no
This ain’t the way somethin’ gotta give
In a rush, rush (gotta keep on movin’)
I’m in a rush, rush (gotta keep on movin’) [x3]

Konvict
Aye aye aye aye aye go gangsta
Aye aye aye aye aye go gangsta
Keep boppin'
Rock wit me
Let's get this bitch poppin'
Up front!
Go gangsta
Keep boppin'
Like back when a nigga was clockin'

See nowadays seems like everybody wanna be killas
Gorillaz gettin' high off their weed and liquor
You die quicker
Paramedics drive back slow to the hospital
You get pronounced dead before the hospital
Stop frontin' when you know you won't pull nothin'
First nigga to retreat when the tools bust
Playin' with it is bad for your health
All your homeboys are gone
You the last one left now
They heart's beatin' but these niggas be scared
The real ones are all locked up or dead
Nowadays you can't find a good connect
But if you do you might be the feds so

I don't know you
You don't know me
You don't know the history I got on these streets
Only when you see what my eyes have seen
Then you'll understand why I'm surrounded by G's
If you owe me and we got beef
I recommend you reach for your heat and don't freeze
Pause for a minute guaranteed you gonna bleed
Cause that's how we was raised
Growin' up in these streets

Go gangsta
Keep boppin
Rock wit me
Let's get this bitch boppin'
Go gangsta
Keep boppin'
Like back when a nigga was clockin'

See it's hard gettin' good
Easy to do evil
And I ain't really into meetin' wit new people
Just put the money in the bag and I'll leave you
Then we cop evesil
You make a hundred dollars
To the streets you made a G
When you coppin' hoes
They swearin' you move keys
Feds gettin' close
And the rats in the g's
And they tryin' to find those birds
Not the ones that sleep in trees
We got that bird
We got that blue
You want short skirts?
We got that too
Whatever ya need my nigga
Show me the cheese
And baby you can believe
That we can make that true

I don't know you
You don't know me
You don't know the history I got on these streets
Only when you see what my eyes have seen
Then you'll understand why I'm surrounded by G's
If you owe me and we got beef
I recommend you reach for your heat and don't freeze
Pause for a minute guaranteed you gonna bleed
Cause that's how we was raised
Growin' up in these streets

Aye aye... [in the background]
Go gangsta
Keep boppin
Rock wit me
Let's get this bitch boppin'
Go gangsta
Keep boppin'
Like back when a nigga was clockin'

Streets been watchin
And they don't blink
Sidewalk got ears
The pavement don't sleep
The fittest will survive
The weak just don't eat
Everybody in between just gettin' a rap sheet
The streets been watchin
And they don't blink
Sidewalk got ears
The pavement don't sleep
The fittest will survive
The weak just don't eat
Everybody in between just gettin' a rap sheet

I don't know you
You don't know me
You don't know the history I got on these streets
Only when you see what my eyes have seen
Then you'll understand why I'm surrounded by G's
If you owe me and we got beef
I recommend you reach for your heat and don't freeze
Pause for a minute guaranteed you gonna bleed
Cause that's how we was raised
Growin' up in these streets

Aye aye... [in the background]
Go gangsta
Keep boppin
Rock wit me
Let's get this bitch boppin'
Go gangsta
Keep boppin'
Like back when a nigga was clockin'

See it's hard gettin' good
Easy to do evil
And I ain't really into meetin' wit new people
See it's hard gettin' good
Easy to do evil
And I ain't really into meetin' wit new people

I'm sittin' on my porch watchin the law
As they ride past in their patrol cars
So tell me why I feel the enemy
They're supposed to be here protectin' me
I mighta been too far
Helpin' the contribute to makin' their job hard
Servin' fiends like these people ain't no enemy
I can't believe I'm out here killin' my community
If you knew how far I came
From where I am and where I used to be
Don't want it
You can tell by the look of me
This gangsta life ain't no longer in me

And I'm tired of the runnin
Tired of the runnin
Runnin from the law
Baby you gotta believe me
Said I'm tired of the runnin
Tired of the runnin
Tired of the runnin
Runnin from the law
Baby ya gotta believe me

I know there's things I coulda changed girl
I know there's things I coulda done a lot better
Instead I'm in the streets tryin' to make that cheddar
Thinkin' in my mind you gonna be there forever
I know I coulda let it all go
Let it all go
But I was thinkin' it would make life better
Instead I'm sittin in this cell writin' this letter
Thought I wouldn't get caught cause I was way too clever
I learned there's no one to catch ya when ya fallin
And they'll be no one to hear ya when you're callin
Do you know what it's like to wake up in the mornin
While you're starvin you're hearin bugs crawlin'
Reminiscing on them days you was walkin
With pretty women on your arm
While you're starsick
Thankful that I didn't end up in a coffin
Somethin you see too often

I'm tired of the runnin
Tired of the runnin
Runnin from the law
Baby you gotta believe me
Said I'm tired of the runnin
Tired of the runnin
Tired of the runnin
Runnin from the law
Baby ya gotta believe me

Said I'm tired
So tired
Said I'm tired of the runnin
Tired of the runnin
Runnin from the law
Baby you gotta believe me
Said I'm tired of the runnin
Tired of the runnin
Tired of the runnin
Runnin from the law
Baby ya gotta believe me

I can see it
It's funny man
Cause it's like it's not going nowhere
And you gon' see it wherever there's struggle
I see my pain in your eyes man
So I know you're feelin' me
It's that twinkle man
That sign of struggle
I've seen it
In me

Cause everyday I can't help but see it
People ain't satisfied
And you're hatin' your 9 to 5
Everybody wanna live another life
But every goal or mountain you climb
Not to better your day
That do leave room for people to say
I guess you're livin' better now
Share a little of that cheddar now
Cause I remember days back when
A brother was hustlin and robbin' too
I done tossed up a letter now
On a whole nother level now
Still I can't enjoy my fame
Unless my people doin' the same
And gettin' money too

(Once in awhile I couldn't look at you)
Once in awhile
(and see the twinkle in your eyes)
And I can see that you never wanna struggle no more
(Once in awhile I couldn't look at you)
Once in awhile
(and see the twinkle in your eyes)
And I can see that you don't ever wanna cry no more

Cause everytime you ask me, I'm grindin'
It shouldn't have to be that way
You shouldn't have to pay my way
I shouldn't have to want for a brighter day
Got a little problem on the way
Bounty hunters checkin' state to state
Child support lady on your case
Not to mention tickets you ain't never paid

Oh
Is what you'll be askin'
God please hold it down for me
Don't let satan get ahold of me
I'm tryin' to tell you it can happen to me too
But it happened a lot worse to my brother
Muhammad thank God he recovered

(Once in awhile I choose look at you)
Once in awhile
(and see the twinkle in your eyes)
And I can see that you never wanna struggle no more
(Once in awhile I choose look at you)
Once in awhile
(and see the twinkle in your eyes)
And I can see that you don't ever wanna cry no more
(Once in awhile I choose look at you)
I see your pain now
I can feel you strain now
And I can see you cryin'
And inside you're dyin
We're all the same now
But you got to make change now

(Once in awhile I choose look at you)
Once in awhile
(and see the twinkle in your eyes)
And I can see that you don't ever struggle no more
(Once in awhile I choose look at you)
Once in awhile
(and see the twinkle in your eyes)
And I can see that you don't ever wanna cry no more
Don't wanna cry no more
And I can see
That you don't ever want to struggle no more
And I can see that you don't ever wanna cry now more

I can't wait
I can't wait

[Verse 1]
I think of you
When the morning comes and the nighttime goes away (all day)
Don't you ever think that we won't be okay (no way)
There is nothing stopping me from loving you
Touching and rubbing and kissing and hugging you
What's this feeling taking over me
Baby that's love and it ain't no stopping it
I don't know as far as the eyes can see
Pick up the pace and it aint no dropping it
Always forever I'll be by your side
You're my Bonnie I'm your Clyde
That's the way that its gonna be
I'm in love with you and you in love with me

[Chorus]
(I can't wait)
Sit down and talk for a minute
Go outside and take a walk for a minute
It's you and me
(I can't wait)
Sit down and talk for a minute
Go outside and take a walk for a minute
It's you and me

[Verse 2]
(I can't wait)
I can't believe
That someone like you will love me endlessly (forever)
If this goes our way my love will always be (eternally)
You have set my mind my love my heart so free
Together forever however just you and me
What's this feeling taking over me
Baby that's love and it aint no stopping it
I don't know as far as the eyes can see
Pick up the pace and it aint no dropping it
Always forever I'll be by your side
You're my Bonnie I'm your Clyde
Cause that's the way that it's gonna be
I'm in love with you and you're in love with me

[Chorus]
(I can't wait)
Sit down and talk for a minute
Go outside and take a walk for a minute
It's you and me
(I can't wait)
Sit down and talk for a minute
Go outside and take a walk for a minute
It's you and me

[Bridge]
(I can't wait)
To have you right next to me
Here by my side
(I can't wait)
To kiss and caress you girl
While holding you tight
(I can't wait)
Can't imagine life without you
It just ain't right
(I can't wait)
I got a whole lot of loving
And you gonna get it tonight

[Chorus]
(I can't wait)
Sit down and talk for a minute
Go outside and take a walk for a minute
It's you and me
(I can't wait)
Sit down and talk for a minute
Go outside and take a walk for a minute
It's you and me
I can't wait
I can't wait
I can't wait

Men steady comin' after you

Seem like everybody wanna go for self
And don't wanna respect boundaries

To always apologize
And I'ma have you first always in my heart
To keep you satisfied

Got every right to wanna go
Got every right to hit the road
And never talk to me no more
You don't even have to call
Even check for me at all
Because the way I been actin' lately
Has been off the wall
Especially toward you
Puttin' girls before you
And they watchin' everything I been doin'
Just to hurt you
Most of it just ain't you
Ain't true

How much of a queen you are to me
And why I love you baby

Nobody wanna see us together
But it don't matter no
Cause I got you babe
Nobody wanna see us together

Mama Africa
Has so much love to share
Sweet blackness, oneness
Meet me there
So much love to give
Let them know they missin' out

This is for all the love
And the life took away
Don't forget we were born in trade
Are ripped from the land and shipped away
I
Is the inspiration we used to survive
See
Have to see it with your own cries
Don't play
Add it up and alright
Still ya don't know

Land is so gold and green
The place is so fresh and clean
And everyday I water my garden
Tell me if you feel it deep in your heart
Visit once, guaranteed to visit twice
And if you just believe in the most high
I know you'll be alright

Mama Africa
Pure blackness, oneness so rare
So much love to give
And let them know they're missin' out
Mama Africa
Has so much love to share
Sweet blackness, oneness
Meet me there
So much love to give
Let them know they missin' out
Sing again

A
That's my favorite place when I need to get away
F
Must forget but we can't forget to pray
R
Like Lance ridin' on the runway
I
In my homeland and I'm feelin' so alive
C
Hear me chant Africa unite
A
Gonna accept mass alright

Still ya don't know
Skin is so dark and brown
She lifts me right off the ground
But no ya not gonna see it on ya tv
So just listen up and believe me
Her trees have the only cure
Her love is so and pure
Had to kiss them troubles goodbye bye
No I don't have to like mama Africa, unite

Pure blackness, oneness so rare
So much love to give
Let them know they're missin' out
Mama Africa
So much love to share
Sweet blackness, oneness
Be there
So much love to give
Let them know they missin' out

So much love to share

So much love so much love to share
Oh yeah
Pure blackness, oneness so rare
So much love to give
Let them know they're missin' out
Feelin' it all the time
Sweet blackness, oneness
Meet me there
Better be there
Let them know they're missin' out
Sing again

A moment ago it seemed
It was yesterday
You were here with me
And everything seems to be the same

What am I supposed to do
With all these empty rooms?
Sit here in solitude
With the smell of your perfume

Ya never took the time to know me
Ya never took the time to understand
Ya never took the time to know me
Yeah
Cause lovin' you is all I ever had
Still lovin' you is all I ever have

This wasn't what I wanted to be
A man in misery
Girl I look back a thousand times
And can't believe that you left me
Why you leave me baby
Why can't you understand my pain
How can I explain
Girl I don't know what I'm doin' wrong
I can't believe that your love is gone

Cause you never took the time to know me
Said you never took the time to know me
You never took the time to understand
Oh
Oh yeah
Said you never took the time to know me
Said you never took the time to know me
See lovin' you is all I ever had
Baby lovin' you is all I ever had

Ooh yeah
You're all I need
You're all I see
And I wish that we could do it again

Cause you never took the time to know
Baby you never took the time to know me
You never took the time to understand
Oh oh
Yeah
Said you never took the time to know me
Yeah
Because of you now I'm just a lonely man
Oh
Because of you now I'm just a lonely man

Yeah
Oh diddy oh diddy oh
Ahhhh
Ahhhh
Konvict
Ahhhh
Ahhhh
Konvict music
Yeah

The pressure's buildin' up
I feel like givin' up
How in the fuck am I gonna back my first album up
Well everything has changed
It'll never be the same
Nobody know me
Then everybody knows my name
And I feel so ashamed
I never been the kinda nigga that would complain
But it's so crazy man
It's no different
Everyday it's just the same thing

Now it's been months out on the road
On tour doin' so many different shows
Head spinnin' feelin' like it's gonna explode
And I just wanna know
If anybody out there's feelin' me
I'm losin' my mind
And I can't believe
I let this shit get the best of me
And now I gotta let ya know

One's got me insane
Cause I can't stand the rain
It's hitting my window pane
A little too much
And now I gotta let ya know
One's got my face in a frown
Aye
Cause I can't stand the sound
Of the thunder that's crashing down
Upon my house
Now I gotta let ya know

Now I got no more worries now
My pocket's fatter now
Look in the mirrow my reflection looks different now
You're gettin' bigger
Akon you need to settle down
Why do I feel this way
Should I be happy
Should I just ignore
Everything I've been given
Please help me lord
It's all over
But I can't escape the rain

Now it's been months out on the road
On tour doin' so many different shows
Head spinnin' feelin' like it's gonna explode
And I just wanna know
If anybody out there's feelin' me
I'm losin' my mind
And I can't believe
I let this shit get the best of me
And now I gotta let ya know

One's got me insane
Cause I can't stand the rain
It's hitting my window pane
A little too much
And now I gotta let ya know
One's got my face in a frown
Aye
Cause I can't stand the sound
Of the thunder that's crashing down
Upon my house
Now I gotta let ya know

Singin' woe diddy woe diddy woe

[Akon:] Convict...Music...and you know we up front.

[Chorus: Akon]
I see you windin’ and grindin’ up on the floor
I know you see me lookin' at you and you already know
I wanna love you, you already know
I wanna love you, you already know

[Snoop Dogg]
Money in the air as mo’ fell
Grab you by your coattail, take you to the motel, ho sale
Don’t tell, wont tell, baby say “I don’t talk, Dogg unless you told on me” - oh well
Take a picture wit me, what the flick gon’ do
Baby stick to me and I’ma stick on you
If you pick me then I’ma pick on you
d-o-double g and I’m here to put this d*** on you
I'm stuck on p**** and your’s is right
Rip ridin’ the poles and them doors is tight
And I’ma get me a shot ‘fo the end of the night
Cuz p**** is p**** and baby you’re p**** for life

[Chorus: Akon]
I see you windin’ and grindin’ up on the floor
I know you see me lookin' at you and you already know
I wanna love you, you already know
I wanna love you, you already know

[Akon]
Shorty I can see you ain’t lonely
Handful of n***** and they all got cheese
See you lookin’ at me now what its gon’ be
Just another tease far as I can see
Trynna get you up out this club if it means spendin' a couple dubs
Throwin’ bout 30 stacks in the back make it rain like that cuz I'm far from a scrub
And you know my pedigree, ex-deala use to move phetamines
Girl I spend money like it don’t mean nuthin’ and besides I got a thing for you.

[Chorus: Akon]
I see you windin’ and grindin’ up on the floor,
I know you see me lookin' at you and you already know
I wanna love you, you already know
I wanna love you, you already know girl

[Snoop Dogg]
Mobbin' through the club and I’m low pressin’
I’m sittin’ in the back in the smoker’s section (just smokin’)
Birds eye, I got a clear view
You can’t see me, but I can see you (baby I see you) -mm
It’s cool, we jet, the mood is set, your p* is wet
You’re rubbin’ your back and touchin’ your neck
Your body is movin', you humpin' and jumpin'
Your t****** is bouncin', you smilin' and grinnin' and lookin’ at me

[Akon]
Girl and while your looking at me I’m ready to hit the caddy
Right up on the patio move the patty to the caddy
Baby you got a phatty, the type I like to marry
Wantin’ to just give you everything and that’s kinda scary
Cuz I'm lovin the way you shake your ass
Bouncin', got me tippin' my glass
Lil' mully(?) don’t get caught up too fast
But I got a thing for you

[Chorus: Akon]
I see you windin’ and grindin’ up on the floor,
I know you see me lookin' at you and you already know
I wanna love you, you already know
I wanna love you, you already know

[Chorus: Akon]
I see you windin’ and grindin’ up on the floor,
I know you see me lookin' at you and you already know
I wanna love you, you already know
I wanna love you, you already know

Upfront
Akon
Slim Shady

I see the one, because she be that lady! Hey!
I feel you creeping, I can see it from my shadow
Wanna jump up in my Lamborghini Gallardo
Maybe go to my place and just kick it like tabo
and possibly bend you over look back and watch me

[Chorus (2X)]

Smack that all on the floor
Smack that give me some more
Smack that 'till you get sore
Smack that oh-oooh!

Upfront style ready to attack now
pull in the parking lot slow with the lac down
convicts got the whole thing packed now
Step in the club now and wardobe intact now!
I feel it down and cracked now (ooh)
I see it dull and backed now
I'm gonna call her, than I pull the mack down
Money no problem, pocket full of that now!

I feel you creeping on, I can see from my shadow
Wanna jump up in my Lamborghini Gallardo
Maybe go to my place and just kick it like tabo
and possibly bend you over look back and watch me

[Chorus (2x)]

[Eminem:]

Ooh...Looks like another club banger
They better hang on when they throw this thang on
Get a lil' drink on
They goin' flip for this Akon shit
You can bank on it!
Pedicure manicure kitty-cat claws
The way she climbs up and down them poles
Looking like one of them puttie-cat dolls
Trying to hold my woody back throuh my drawers
Steps upstage didn't think I saw
Creeps up behind me, shes like "your"
I'm like ya I know lets cut to the chase
No time to waste back to my place
Plus from the club to the crib's like a mile away
or more like a palace shall I say
and Plus I got a pal if your gal is game
In fact he is the one singing the song that's playing
"Akon!"

[Akon:]

I feel you creeping on, I can see from my shadow
Wanna jump up in my Lamborghini Gallardo
Maybe go to my place and just kick it like tabo
and possibly bend you over look back and watch me

[Chorus]

Eminem is rollin', d and em rollin' bo
And all marvelous them rolling
Women just holding big booty rollin'
Soon I'll be on Eminem throwin "D!"
Hittin on less than "Three!"
Block wheel style like "Whee!"
Girl I can tell you want me because lately

I feel you creeping on, I can see from my shadow
Wanna jump up in my Lamborghini Gallardo
Maybe go to my place and just kick it like tabo
and possibly bend you over look back and watch me

[Chorus]

[Akon]
Cheh

[Styles P]
This shit is crazy
Crazy

[Akon]
It's one of those things man
You gotta experience to know what I'm talkin' about
Ha ha
It's where the goin' get rough

[Styles P]
Akon

[Akon]
The tough stay tough

[Styles P]
Styles P

[Akon]
Up front
Let's go
Konvict

[Akon]
We in too deep to turn back now D

[Styles P]
Sure is

[Akon]
Watch yourself
Before you get
Blown away

[Styles P]
You know where I come from
The place where your fate is a mic
Or a bull or a dum dum
A jail cell a pine box
And brothers is dumb young
Young boys
Still bustin' guns for the slum
that they come from
Cops is the only ones they gon' run from
That's it
They puttin' they hood up
But 9 out of 10 of us ain't got good luck
You gon' ride on a man and catch 25
Or get hit and get sent to the other side
You lose both sides of the coin
So me I play the hood baby
Not in the
Mama got a little church I could join
But I didn't go yet
Man got a mosque I could join
But I didn't go yet
Cool with the devil on my back
I'm in cold sweats
Bout to do some dirt
In some dirty black old sweats
If you known you shoulda shown the way
Mosta the hood bout to get blown away

[Akon]
Cause I was raised up to show no fear
Cowardly hearts'll never last long here
If you ain't man enough to make shit clear
Guaranteed you'll get blown away
Cause I done seen the block break down tears
And I done seen the cops break my peers
Tryin' to hold on to a couple more years
Tryin' not to get blown away

See I ain't never shot nobody
But I'm known for fightin'
So when I strike man
You'll think you been struck by lightning
Shouldn't have to prove myself by killin' a nigga
Even a child could figure out how to pull the trigga
Retaliation only takes anger mixed with passion
So you target in the distance and keep on blastin'
They say guns don't kill people, people do
So when you're hit man
You feel that shit the evils do
Can't see myself get beat down
My eyes swollen
Mom's cryin' they don't know what happened
My pride's stolen
If I ain't got my heat then I got a blade
That hit ya off

Cause I was raised up to show no fear
Cowardly hearts'll never last long here
If you ain't man enough to make shit clear
Guaranteed you'll get blown away
Cause I done seen the block break down tears
And I done seen the cops break my peers
Tryin' to hold on to a couple more years
Tryin' not to get blown away

Keep my eye out for jakes
Ears to the streets
Other eye out for snakes
And these scandalous freaks
If we ain't on good terms
Don't bother to speak
Don't smile and try to spark a convo with me
Same thing'll make ya laugh it'll make ya cry
This quiet nigga, he'll take ya life
Hate for it to be the world's sacrifice
If somebody else could travel
Through the tunnel of life
Cause I'm that type of guy I'll be there
When you're ridin'
But I'll stay to myself
So if you see me out there
with a bear we fightin'
Then nigga go help the bear

Cause I was raised up to show no fear
Cowardly hearts'll never last long here
If you ain't man enough to make shit clear
Guaranteed you'll get blown away
Cause I done seen the block break down tears
And I done seen the cops break my peers
Tryin' to hold on to a couple more years
Tryin' not to get blown away
