Illmac
Time Bomb
[Verse 1: Illmaculate]
I'm at the edge and I think if I jump I'll be free from these cuffs
It gives me an immediate rush
There's only a few people I trust
And everybody else isn't worth being discussed
Examine them closely, cause cash could turn your man into a phony
That's the difference from your family and your homies
Imagine that if only you could sell your soul to Satan
And see your enemies moves before they ever chose to make them
But naw, my pockets are empty
It feels like my whole life fate has been plotting against me
And if I never smile when you met me
It's not cause of envy; I was never taught to be friendly
Watching you hop out your Bentleys
Wanting to rob someone, silence these monsters that tempt me
Cause I already have a thousand regrets
And the only thing I'm seeing bouncing is checks
So I'm drowning in debt
But I don't answer the phone or the door when they come around to collect
Landlord breathing down my neck, wanting rent from me
Trying to get money's gonna be the death of me
It's nothing new, that's just a day in the life
Of a fucking dude who gave up school and now he's paying the price
A stubborn fool who ain't afraid of a fight
My knuckles bruise just the way that I like
I hustle too, and I ain't changing tonight
Uncover truth and stay away from the hype
Lucifer could come from you while you praying to Christ
You ain't untouchable, take some advice, dawg
Tuck the tool, wait with the lights off
And when he comes for you, put his brains on the white walls
Then break out the Pine-Sol
Get the stains off your nice floor, remains off the light bulbs
What could you to fight with Satan is lifelong
It's making my mind strong, my brain is a time bomb!
