Outkast - Knowing lyrics

[Hook] Brothers on the block knowing (from this point on it only gets rougher!) Sisters at the crib knowing (from this point on it only gets rougher!) Preachers at the church knowing, we still get by (from this point on it only gets rougher!) Teachers at the school knowing (from this point on it only gets rougher!) Babies on the bottle knowing (from this point on it only gets rougher!) Junkies on the corner knowing, but still get high (from this point on it only gets rougher!) [Big Boi] Well here's a formal introduction Something to make you ponder The situation's ugly, like "In Living Color"'s Wanda (word up!) Well everybody play dumb, but there's some that succumb And fall victim, I will overcome any hurdle or obstacle that's in my path Fast cash should be the last resort so make it last for the risk you took Trick, you shook your a** for some hundred dollar heels and a designer bag Now that's a** backwards All you got in the refrigertator is bratwurst Your stomach is balled in a knot, you got that phat purse Pocketbook, stop and look, pockets look void Destroyed by the need to indulge and enjoy the finer things in life right? Your dignity, your only sacrifice, slim as your chances of being somebody's wife They seeing ya bu*t, booty naked every night, ain't nothing right or wrong! [Hook] [Big Boi] Even though things started falling apart Wanda went and bought a Honda Now she's out of a job, she would slob on a knob For a little less than a yard, a ma**age you could drill her like a sarge She would charge and rob Pick through yo' pockets She got the tricks watcha nd the silver locket That he bought for his wife but Wanda left her license On the night stand f**in' with this white man She met in a little red Corvette paid for s** Made a deal that she would never forget you can bet Every action has a positive and equal reaction Therefore everything that goes around comes around in that fashion Fast and furiously, the was a knock on the sliding gla** door (b**h, it's me!) You thought you was slick the way you hit me for that lick But you slipped now I'm getting in your sh**!!!! [Hook]
