Small World

Lyrics

See no evil, fear no evil, speak no evil, hear no evil
 If you don't bring that sh- around you
 You ain't got nothing to worry about (uh-huh)
 Yeah (yeah, uh-huh)
 Know what I'm saying?
 Yo, yo yo yo
 Carolyn, from Maryland, she Lady Heroin
 She elegant, her apparel in the M-Class caravan
 Ki's of dope, loving cats to skeet in her throat
 She f- killers in her condo, her Benz and her boat
 Her iced throat, a- is curvy, 40 years old
 She passing for 30, Gucci framed glasses from Purvy's
 Madison Ave., shopping when she not, copping bricks of that sh-
 She hopping on d-, riding Pony's who trick
 At my man's wake, she said the eulogy
 After that I usually, bumped into her shopping for jewelry
 Her bodyguard screwing me, I gave her my math
 Ain't nothing new to me, blowing backs out, six-pack Stout's
 Wide fat mouth, the evil look, with a bow-leg
 Yo n- said, "Shorty's a pro, she blow heads
 She push the fo' red, she know Feds, Feds know her"
 A code red, maybe she's out to slay me, this b- is crazy
 She blew the celly up, meet me at the telly to f-
 She knew about, cats from way back, we smoke the haystack
 She never cough once, blunts was her hobby
 She said I knew her man probably, no doubt, '96 he tried to rob me
 I jetted though, sometimes you never know
 He snorted all her work, now she need me, to do her dirty work
 It's a small world (it's a small world), you reap what you sow
 What goes around, comes around, if you sleep you don't know
 A very small world (it's a small world), where beef could never end
 At the time you least expect it, I'ma see you again
 It's a small world (it's a small world), you get away with it now
 Soon enough it catches up to you, someway, somehow
 Yo, it's a small world, watch what you do (it's a small world)
 Snook from Red Hook was grimy, did five years, glad to be home
 From Attica, known for keeping chrome calibers
 Smooth like a Wallaby shoe, he's out to get it
 Five years planning to blow, soon as he hit the bridicks
 Had a girl in Westside Queens, thought he was low
 Played the crib for a month, and deaded his P.O
 Started robbing n- 'til he caught a whole kilo
 He had a bunch of starving n- he owe, he never paid though
 Got large, sign on his door, "Don't knock hard"
 Layin with his b-, 'n- is rich', is what he told her
 Played the block, holding cracks inside the baby stroller
 Here come his crazy soldier, six shots it's over
 A year went past, Snook went flossing fast
 His old man had crossed his ass, for the laws of this fast cash
 It's a small world (it's a small world), you reap what you sow
 What goes around, comes around, if you sleep you don't know
 A very small world (it's a small world), where beef could never end
 At the time you least expect it, I'ma see you again
 It's a small world (it's a small world), you get away with it now
 Soon enough it catches up to you, someway, somehow
 It's a small world, watch what you do (it's a small world)
 I seen death, seen thugs cry, it's bugged why
 We let the slugs fly, enter your brain, through your skull
 Another thug died, pitching your soul, into that infinite
 Black hole where many souls go 'cause of a .44 blast
 Snook was one of 'em, so many more
 Even that Fendi whore, got n- hit up, yeah, let that Henny pour
 Carolyn, paid-up b-, made b-, stay rich
 Heard her bodyguard took Snook to God
 Carolyn when she needed him, he took the job
 He was close to her, ever since she took him inside
 When his moms died, dope fiend OD'd, '85
 He went crazy, stuck up banks to stay alive
 He was live, do n- even know the things that he tried
 Robbed armored trucks, incidents where police died
 He stayed in lower Eastside, peace God (peace God)
 He staring at me hard
 Two of his mans with him, I got to hit 'em
 I'm reaching for my Roscoe, cocked it back on, and get my blast on
 At the gas station, bunch of Arabs racing
 Out the way, as my Torah spray, jump in the whip
 Hit the highway, you know how I say, the game that I play
 It's real tendencies, when you feel your enemies
 But can't figure out whose who, keep it true
 Sh- is cool now, put the tools down? Never
 'Cause every day is on, living this life, out for this cheddar
 It's a small world (it's a small world), you reap what you sow
 What goes around, comes around, if you sleep you don't know
 A very small world (it's a small world), where beef could never end
 At the time you least expect it, I'ma see you again
 It's a small world (it's a small world), you get away with it now
 Soon enough it catches up to you, someway, somehow
 Yo, it's a small world, watch what you do (it's a small world)
 I'm going to see you again
 Uh-huh, I'm going to see you again, n-
 Uh-huh, going to see you again n-, yeah
