lyrics

Shes a dancer
In the light
Mixed the Avirex with the three stripes
Lil mama don’t cry
When I’m outside
For the night

I know youre upset
& you’re annoyed
Im on edge & im paranoid
I feel like everybody is out to get me
So there are places & things that I’ll avoid
Im trying to stay low key
Cut through the noise
There is steppers out there
Trying to score points
Outside is a serious setting
Slip of you want
That’s your choice
Not me though
Ive got tunnel vision like Skimo
Observe & I don’t speak loads
Stay aware out there is the cheat code
I’ve got enemies I need to keep close
Anywhere we go see me with the wing
Like say Im on free flow
There is a lot of wolves in sheep clothes
Outside there’s a lot of mad men like Stevo
Im trying to manage everything
Like pottchino
Man are just outside juggling
Get stressed out when the money aint doubling
Bills dem don’t stop coming in
It isn’t success
If were still struggling
I’ll get us to the belly right now
If you can stick with me
& you can stomach it
Once they’re up then im done with this

Shes a dancer
In the light
Mixed the Avirex with the three stripes
Lil mama don’t cry
When I’m outside
For the night
For the night
I’ll be outside
Im coming home
I’ll be there on the Southside
See a lot of hoes
preeing man with their mouth wide
Front door in your robe
& you tell me its about time

I know you get scared for me when im gone
But wait on me & were gone
Dem boy hate on me & they plot
So if you pray for me
Don’t stop
I understand that’s its been non stop
Putting the days in with no days off
Doing the nights shift to take days off
Putting the work in
Till it pays off
Im on a mission that I can’t stray off
Ive got feeling I can’t shake off
I can’t pretend
They don’t want revenge
Any day now they could take their shot
I couldn’t pretend to be shocked
If were not dargs its dog eat dog
Crabs in the budget
Nobody budging
Everybody is fighting to get to
Anywhere where the money is
If it aint one ting
Its another ting
So I want to stay away from where the trouble is
It takes one thing to be a catalyst
I keep getting better & they’re getting mad at it
Them man are just useless like the government
They aint gonna save us from suffering
So I got to go out & get It in
If its too much
I understand
But I down want to lose you chasing a bag
But I got to do
What got to
I don’t want to choose
Don’t get it confused, have…
Been preeing all the angles
& facts
Even though the outlook is tapped
I just want to know that you’re going to have my back
Then im going to be right back

Shes a dancer
In the light
Mixed the Avirex with the three stripes
Lil mama don’t cry
When I’m outside
For the night
For the night
I’ll be outside
Im coming home
I’ll be there on the Southside
See a lot of hoes
preeing man with their mouth wide
Front door in your robe
& you tell me its about time
