| Song | Thug Is A Drug - Album Version (Explicit) |
| Artist | Mos Def |
| Album | TRUE MAGIC |
| 作词 : Richardson, Smith | |
| Quick question... | |
| You ever felt like the realest nigga alive? | |
| Felt too pretty or powerful to die? | |
| Tell the truth... | |
| You ever felt ugly enough to cry? | |
| Have you ever begged for mercy? | |
| Have you ever wished you died? | |
| Tell the truth... | |
| Have you ever taken pride in the crime? | |
| Been too hungry to break down or hide? | |
| Felt low down dirty? | |
| Or super duper high? | |
| Or contemplated murder, robbery, or suicide? | |
| Tell the truth... | |
| Taken medicine for trouble in your mind? | |
| Or taken down a number? | |
| For taking up a scheme? | |
| I made her wild, beautiful take her 'til she skeet? | |
| Take her to the penthouse or take her to the skreet? | |
| Tell the Truth... | |
| So the waterman he take it to the beat | |
| And I take it to the 'mic | |
| So we takin' what we like | |
| Take it to your neck | |
| We gon' take it to the bank | |
| Triple X, | |
| Killa KBlack we take it to your face | |
| Like, G..."BANK BANK"[Chorus] | |
| Gangsta, birth sign is danger | |
| It's like thug is the drug | |
| That make 'em fall in love | |
| When love don't love nobody | |
| BANK, BANK | |
| Gangsta, star sign is danger | |
| It's like thug is the drug | |
| Ready rock, steady pump | |
| Man they leanin' and they fiendin' | |
| Cuz they can't get enough... | |
| The Dee-Jay play this song in the dance | |
| And every buggy on the block got the tune on blast | |
| The TV is like the radio with visuals too | |
| So shiny, so gutter, mean moody and cool | |
| Tell the truth... | |
| They might be doing things that you wanna' do | |
| You fantasize as they be living it through | |
| The big home with the beautiful view | |
| You have a swim in the pool, and get fresh | |
| And take a spin in the coupe | |
| Tell the truth... | |
| You probably want to feel the world in your palm | |
| While hold a gun in your hand | |
| And make 'em know you a star | |
| Tell the truth... | |
| And there's those who probably already are | |
| They well known in they zone | |
| Or they town or they block | |
| Tell the truth... | |
| Then there's the rest who are usually not | |
| And the heavy dose of thug feel like all that they got | |
| So they ready to rock... | |
| R-r-rock... | |
| Ha, ha, heh[Chorus] | |
| Gangsta, birth sign is danger | |
| It's like thug is the drug | |
| That make 'em fall in love | |
| When love don't love nobody[Gunshots, screaming] | |
| Gangsta, star sign is danger | |
| It's like thug is the drug | |
| Ready rock, steady pump | |
| Man they leanin' and they fiendin' | |
| Cuz they can't get enough...[beat rides out] |
