Dirt Off Your Shoulder / Lying From You

Lyrics

I ordered a frappuccino
 Where's my fuckin' frappuccino?
 Alright, let's do this
 When I pretend everything is what I want it to be
 I look exactly like what you've always wanted to see
 When I pretend, I can't forget about the criminal I am
 Stealin' second after second just 'cause I know I can
 But I can't pretend this is the way it'll stay
 I'm just trying to bend the truth
 I can't pretend I'm who you want me to be
 So I'm lying my way from
 If you feelin' like a pimp, nigga, go and brush your shoulders off
 Ladies is pimps too, go and 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, proud to 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
 All 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 to bottom, to the top of the pops
 Nigga London, Japan and I'm straight off the block
 Like a runnin' 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 and brush your shoulders off
 Ladies is pimps too, go and 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, tryna get me a Rover
 Tryna stretch out the coca, like a wrestler, yes sir
 Keep the Heckler close, you know them smokers'll test ya
 But like 52 cards, when I'm, I'm through dealin'
 Now, 52 bars come out, now, you feelin' 'em
 Now, 52 cars roll out, remove ceilin'
 In case 52 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
 Paid a grip for the jeans, plus, the slippers is clean
 No chrome on the wheels, I'm a grown-up for real, chill
 Yeah, I remember what they taught to me
 Remember condescending talk of who I ought to be
 Remember listenin' to all of that and this again
 So I pretended up a person who was fittin' in
 And now you think this person really is me
 And I'm trying to bend the truth
 But the more I push, the more I'm pullin' away
 'Cause I'm lying my way from you
 No, no turnin' back, now
 (I wanna be pushed aside, so let me go)
 No, no turnin' back, now
 (Let me take back my life, I'd rather be all alone)
 No turnin' back, now
 (Anywhere on my own, 'cause I can see)
 No, no turnin' back, now
 (The very worst part of you, the very worst part of you is me)
 This isn't what I wanted to be, I never thought
 That what I said would have you runnin' from me like this
 This isn't what I wanted to be, I never thought
 That what I said would have you runnin' from me like this
 This isn't what I wanted to be, I never thought
 That what I said would have you runnin' from me like this
 This isn't what I wanted to be, I never thought
 That what I said would have you runnin' from me like this
 (You) no turnin' back, now
 (I wanna be pushed aside, so let me go)
 No, no turnin' back, now
 (Let me take back my life, I'd rather be all alone)
 No turnin' back, now
 (Anywhere on my own, 'cause I can see)
 No, no turnin' back, now
 (The very worst part of you, the very worst part of you is me)
 Biatch!
