[Intro - Imogen Heap] |
|
You and me between the sheets, it just doesn't get better than this |
|
The many windswept yellow stickies of my mind |
|
Or the molten emotional front line |
|
I couldn't care less, I'm transfixed in this absolute bliss |
|
[Intro - Lil B] |
|
Illusions of Grandeur |
|
This is my pain and this is my life |
|
(Pray for me once again) |
|
(Pray for my safety and pray for my health) |
|
I have so many questions |
|
(Based World look over me) |
|
I'm based for life |
|
(Please give me the strength to keep going) |
|
I was a robber, turned positive |
|
[Verse 1 - Lil B] |
|
The plans started out |
|
One guy, one gun |
|
Another person, so add one |
|
Two people, one gun |
|
One car they stole it from |
|
An unknown, ride slow |
|
One bottle of alcohol |
|
Two people with bad thoughts |
|
One time to lose it all |
|
You never learn, you never fail |
|
Never walk, you never crawl |
|
Back to the subject |
|
One lesson, two knuckle-heads |
|
One listen to the other |
|
They both robbing for the supper |
|
Lord forgive them |
|
One is... The product of the environment |
|
Good upbringing with no father |
|
I'm sorry |
|
He took the harder route, regardless |
|
He was a little smaller |
|
To get respect he had to dog 'em |
|
For the girls |
|
He wanted to be the hero or anti-hero |
|
One dude was a nerd |
|
Got picked on and went berserk |
|
They both teamed-up |
|
Found a common and that was robbing |
|
Drinking liquor |
|
At the age to feel no pain |
|
We robbing brainless |
|
Deep for the cheddar |
|
A pain I can't explain |
|
To see that window shatter |
|
My blood's like a stain |
|
Tainted evidence, the pain |
|
Hard with the police |
|
Gather the evidence |
|
You ain't a robber, you ain't gon' feel this shit |
|
Maybe I ain't mainstream |
|
I cry cause I want the world |
|
I'm scared that these niggas would celebrate my death |
|
I guess... The world is deep, novo |
|
Fuck you bitch |
|
I'm thugged out, I love this shit |
|
So educated I can go out and discuss this shit |
|
Bringing back matters to the public |
|
I like, I love it |
|
[Outro - Lil B] |
|
This is the life of a robber |
|
Illusions of Grandeur |
|
The most prolific mixtape to ever come out in hip-hop |
|
Let this change your life how it changed mine |
|
Lil B |
|
The Based God |
