Lying From You/dirt Off Your Shoulder

Mike: when i can pretend
everything is what i want it to be
i look exactly like
what you had always wanted to see
(when i pretend)
i can forget about the criminal i am
stealing second after second
just cause i know i can, but...
I can’t pretend this is the way it'll stay, i’m just
chester: trying to bend the truth
mike: i can’t pretend i’m who you want me to be, so i’m
chester: lying me way from...
If you feelin like a pimp
nigga, go on, brush your shoulders off
ladies is pimps, too
go on, brush your shoulders off
Niggas is crazy, baby
don't forget that boy told you
get...that...
dirt off your shoulder
I probably owe it to y'all
probably be locked by the force
tryin to hustle some things
that go with the porsche
Feelin no remorse
feelin like my hand was forced
middle finger to the law
nigga, grip'n my balls
Said the ladies, they love me
from the bleachers they screamin
all the ballers is bouncin
they like the way i be leanin
All the rappers be hatin
off the track that i'm makin
but all the hustlers, they love it
just to see one of us make it
Came from the bottom, the bottom
to the top of the pops
nigga, london, japan
and i'm straight off the block
Like a running back
get it, man, i'm straight off the block
i can run it back
nigga, cause i'm straight with the roc
If you feelin like a pimp
nigga, go on, brush your shoulders off
ladies is pimps, too
go on, brush your shoulders off
Niggas is crazy, baby
don't forget that boy told you
get...that...
dirt off your shoulder
You gotta get...that...dirt off your shoulder
you gotta get...that...dirt off your shoulder
you gotta get...that...dirt off your shoulder
you gotta get...that...dirt off your shoulder
Your homie, hov, in position
in the kitchen with soda
i just whipped up a watch
tryin to get me a rover
Tryin to stretch out the coca
like a wrestler, yessir
keep the heckler close
you know them smokers'll test ya
But, like, fifty-two cards when i'm
i'm through dealin
now fifty-two bars come out
now you feel em
Now, fifty-two cars roll out
remove ceiling incase
fifty-two broads come out
now you chillin
With a boss, bitch, of course s.c. on the sleeve
at the 40/40 club, espn on the screen
i paid a grip for the jeans, plus the slippers is clean
no chrome on the wheels, i'm a grown-up for real
Mike: i remember what they taught to me
remember condescending talk of who i ought to be
remember listening to all of that and this again
so, i pretended up a person who was fitting in
And now you think this person really is me, and i’m
chester: trying to bend the truth
mike: but the more i push
the more i’m pulling away, cause i'm
Chester: lying my way from you
mike: no, no turning back now
chester: i wanna be pushed aside, so let me go
mike: no, no turning back now
Chester: let me take back my life, i’d rather be all alone
mike: no turning back now
chester: anywhere on my own cause i can see
mike: no, no turning back now
Chester: the very worst part of you
the very worst part of you
is me…
Mike: this isn’t what i wanted to be
i never thought that what i said
would have you running from me
Like this
this isn’t what i wanted to be
i never thought that what i said
would have you running from me
Chester + mike: like this!
mike: this isn’t what i wanted to be
i never thought that what i said
would have you running from me
Chester + mike: like this!
mike: this isn’t what i wanted to be
i never thought that what i said
would have you running from me like this
Chester: you...
mike: no turning back now
chester: i wanna be pushed aside, so let me go
mike: no, no turning back now
Chester: let me take back my life, i’d rather be all alone
mike: no turning back now
chester: anywhere on my own cause i can see
mike: no, no turning back now
The very worst part of you
the very worst part of you
is me...
