Lyrics for Song: New Song
Lyrics for Album: 40 Oz. To Freedom [1992]
I heard that payback's a mother fuckin' bitch,
But I won't stress and I won't switch,
And I would not take my life
Glory please, my God
The only thing on my mind
Takes up all of my time
And I said, oh
Runnin' from a gun
Or some brain that weighs a ton
And my God, it hurts to get so low
Searchin' throgh the car
Cold, still searchin' through the night
I think I would run, to you
But I refuse to fuss and fight
And God may find a reason
Well I'm sure you'll find the rhyme
Because it takes up nearly all my time
He who stands for freedom
God knows I got the number, but
Maybe I just use too much
I was sittin' in that bar
Now I'm sittin' in that stolen car
Cold, still rollin' down the boulevard
Saw you with a gleam
And the microphone scene
Think I would run, to you
But I know I won't live for me
'Cause I know,
God's got the reason
And the rhyme
And please tell me
Why it takes up all my time?
I've been drinking, just like you
And baby, you got something I can use
Payback's a mother fuckin' blast,
But I won't stress and I won't blast,
And I would not take my life
Glory please, my God
Coming from Heaven above
Takes up all of my time
And I said
Why must I feel like that?
Runnin' from a gun
And some brain that weighs a ton
You know I did that line for Flava' Flave
But all the DJ's do it,
All the DJ's use it
I would run
I would switch
But I wanna be the same
And I know I'll find a reason
'Cause I always bust a rhyme
Because it takes up nearly all my time, yeah
"T," it stands for treason,
The "D" here stands for dove
And maybe I just use too
Maybe I'm just used too
Maybe I'm just used too much
Boom
