Never Crossed My Mind

(الألبوم: I Wish - 1995)

I used to think that I was hard
The kind of kid you don't wanna mess with
I'll fight you and your bodyguard
I was illiterate, we're talking gibberish
But never considerate of the way I treated friends
I would fight ten kids and I would fly all heads
I would even fight dragons till they'd be dead
I would fight presidents and the mayor, you bet
But it's just too bad because I ain't fought yet
You see, I took a slug at no one
But if I ever did, I'd have to show one
That I was, like, able to wreck it
I thought I knew but I didn't know
That all the talk in the world doesn't make you a pro
And so, 'cause my first real fight in the hood
I would bash a skull, if I could
But that's when these kids wrecked my world, swept my feet up
Straight got illed and I was nearly killed
It never crossed my mind

I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time
I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind
Walk through my mind
I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time
I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind
Walk through my mind
I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time (all at one time)
Walk through my mind
I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time
I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind
Walk through my mind

I never thought that it could happen to you
I never thought that it could happen to me
But then it happened, see
Cooling out, chilling with my homeboy Paul
Now we was chilling, talking to ladies up inside of the mall
I got a few numbers and some girl's address
So I was feeling kinda fly and I was dressed real fresh
We was cooling as if we didn't care
He was too busy talking, and so he wasn't aware
That's when he caught a slug to his chest
A hole in his vest, worst of all he made a mess all over the carpet
Started to tumble all over the place
'Cause a bullet has no name, it sees no face
Anyways, this girl pulled a trigger on us
She was trying to kill the man who was next to the man
Who was next to the man... what?
And that's all he gots to give
He's ready to die, but I'm hoping he lives
It never crossed his mind

I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time
I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind
Walk through my mind
I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time
I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind
Walk through my mind
I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time
Walk through my mind
I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time
I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind
Walk through my mind

For my groupies, why must you do me?
You never knew me, so what makes you hot for me?
Is it fortune and fame, just because of my name
You wanna tell your friends that you did it to Skee
See, we can't be, because there is no us
You and I won't happen, so don't make no fuss
Now we could persist with a hug and a kiss
But I can't help but wonder 'whose daughter is this?'
I'm glad you respect me, now let me respect you
If I was a dog, then I might want you
But if you want it that bad, then baby, don't get mad
Because you're welcome to share with the rest of my crew
Now that's on you
I know you fellas who ain't wit' it
You're thinking like, "Dag, Skee, why don't you hit it? Do that, yeah!"
But you better think again
Next groupie could be your girlfriend
Just in case it never crossed your mind

I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time
I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind
Walk through my mind
I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time
I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind
Walk through my mind
I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time (all at one time)
Walk through my mind
I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time
I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind
Walk through my mind
I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time
I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind
Walk through my mind
I could go ten different places at one time
All at one time
I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind
Walk through my mind

You never know what could happen (all at one time)
Everyday situations (walk through my mind)
It could happen you're going to the store (all at one time)
Somebody drop a house on you and steal yo' slippers
Who knows?
Never crossed your mind
