Organized Noize - Sumthin Wicked This Way Comes lyrics

[Verse 1: Andre 3000] Remember back in the time When the only sign we had was pickets But now in '94, it be this way, somethin' come wicked G-angs k**in' others for colors Thangs that we wear for fashion Other brothers take it for a reason to be blastin' What the kcuf is goin' on Not soft like bu*tercups but Had enough of singin' that same song See, I stayed across the street from the projects Took out yo' momma trash and groceries to her trunk To keep my pockets fat, like cellulite Only been to jail one week for some shull-bit And I pray to God I won't repeat I shoulda pulled it when I had the chance to No, I shouldn't a did that, cause if I did that Y'all would not hear that phat sh** That keeps you on your tippy-tippy-toes Like that sellout, not callin' no names But really, "who's bad" I go through obstacles like a whole box of condoms You can't forget where you come from [T-Boz] Take a good look in the mirror And tell me, do you like what you see Masters of deception, corruption and evil But you're always quick to point the finger at me Won't somebody tell me [Refrain] I just don't understand The ways of the world today Sometimes I feel Like there's nothing to live for So I'm longing for the days of yesterday [T-Boz] What gave you the right to misjudge me And write me off on the wall Acting as if you understand me In reality, you just don't know me at all [Chilli] Sometimes I can't help but wonder If this was how it's meant to be But if you search deep enough in your soul You'll always find a slight reminder of me Won't somebody tell me [Refrain] [Left Eye] A-yo, if we could all agree To lettin' our souls become free Of that sweet bitterness Then who's chest would have the most seeds I keep misfocusin' my needs And distress on my back with them cats They be blastin' into my knapsack Ain't no accidental d**htraps My mishap is the fact that I'm destined to snap It's when I feel as though my body's able to go My mind is ready to flow Did you know first you catch and then I throw It's my own sense of time If I'm late, it's cause I'm endin' my day Just when the sun shines And still gently advising the arisin' of the moon As it rolls around into my soundproof dimension [Refrain]
