Keisha's & Brenda's
(专辑: Under Twenty Five - 2021)
I
know some Keisha's and Brenda's Done by some family or friends, bruv Done by a
person they trusted We got the
knife and the
gun clip Smell of revenge in the
air and it's potent Please don't disguise bullshit as a
rose Like, I
cannot walk through the
valley of the
shadow of death And act like I
ain't even know 'Cause I
want some cheques and respect and to blow Minding your business, protecting a
code Like, check your bredrin 'cause he's in the
wrong 'Cause she said no and he's still pushing on That's a
serial offender, uh And I
ain't talking Coco Pops But when the
word's out, you're getting snapped, crackled, and popped Ready or not, Fugees Coming up with foolishness like "What was she doing there?" "Why did you follow them there?" "Why was you wearing that?" "Why did you say that?" "Why did you engage?" "Did you not know what they were on?" It's that, it's just barbaric, it's crazy Searching for redemption, still I
need a
little peace of mind A
little space from all this pain and we gon' seek this fight So under pressure, if I
let up, I
won't see this night Need a
resolution Searching for redemption, still I
need a
little peace of mind A
little space from all this pain and we gon' seek this fight So under pressure, if I
let up, I
won't see this night Need a
resolution Like, I
know some girls that survived R. Kellys I
know some men that survived them, too Ages of Blue Peter down to Blue's Clues To buy silence for some new shoes I
don't live for no hype or no drama I'd rather rendezvous with some karma They say leave it to God, but I'm all at an odd 'Cause my mind's at a
loss and my heart's turned to frost Like, "Forgive and forget" I'd rather stand with a
knife and avenge I'd rather use what I
have with a
pen I'd rather lose than to lie and pretend Caught between moving and making amends If they can't check you, then they're not your friends
