Devil's Advocate (Explicit) - Snowgoons/Reef The Lost Cauze |
| [00:09.71] |
Yeah he was a real ni**a |
| [00:11.66] |
Stayed on the block pitching |
| [00:13.07] |
He and his crew would rock jeans |
| [00:14.61] |
Said stop snitching |
| [00:15.72] |
He wasn't the violent type |
| [00:17.40] |
But he would see evil on all kind of nights |
| [00:19.69] |
And chose to remain the silent type |
| [00:21.25] |
I'm not saying call the cops |
| [00:22.72] |
The beast won't help |
| [00:23.89] |
But sh*t in the hood we police ourselves |
| [00:26.46] |
Hate on no man trying to increase his wealth |
| [00:29.02] |
But don't turn your back on your |
| [00:30.51] |
Neighbor when they need your help |
| [00:32.05] |
And he did that night that they robbed that old lady |
| [00:34.98] |
They ain't mean to kill her but the b**ch went crazy |
| [00:37.75] |
Seen the whole thing and just shut his blinds |
| [00:40.08] |
But he couldn't get the image of her |
| [00:41.69] |
Busted spine from his blunted mind |
| [00:43.66] |
Time passed and the summer was sick |
| [00:45.62] |
That was until his little brother got hit |
| [00:48.45] |
Now he's out for answers but niggas stick to the script |
| [00:50.85] |
So when he asked what happened ain't nobody seen sh*t |
| [00:53.85] |
And there's only so long you |
| [00:55.35] |

| [00:57.21] |
Before the snake comes back |
| [00:58.34] |

| [00:59.93] |
Half the worrying half the risk |
| [01:01.98] |
But a whole world of problems |
| [01:03.25] |
Come from playing devil's advocate |
| [01:04.88] |

He was the youngest VP of a fortune 500 |
| [01:18.71] |
Porsche out front armani suits by the hundreds |
| [01:21.15] |
His bosses screwed over anyone that they wanted |
| [01:23.95] |
The type to f**k the wife and then fire the husband |
| [01:26.86] |
Ruthless titans of industry |
| [01:28.79] |
There's lawyers and accountants |
| [01:29.91] |
Are more organized than the genovese |
| [01:32.27] |
Made plenty enemies but his logic was |
| [01:34.85] |
If these people were smart then they'd be as rich as me |
| [01:38.05] |
His ambition blinded him so |
| [01:39.81] |
He was a good man once but loot divided his soul |
| [01:42.83] |
Now was company is floundering about to be jobless |
| [01:45.84] |
He's under investigation for trading on stock tips |
| [01:48.61] |
Reporters out back sifting garbage |
| [01:51.08] |
Got a lien on his house |
| [01:52.27] |
They trying to take where his mom live |
| [01:54.21] |
Went to his old boss who's met at the door |
| [01:56.32] |
He said I'm sorry son |
| [01:57.88] |
We've never met before |
| [01:59.30] |

| [02:21.11] |
Never turn a blind eye to the evil that's upon you |
| [02:23.99] |
'Cause if you do believe me that sh*t will haunt you |
| [02:26.90] |
I remember a few years back I witnessed a heinous act |
| [02:30.16] |
And I did not react I sat back and just let it happen |
| [02:33.97] |
I just sat there stunned I should've |
| [02:35.67] |
Helped but I guess I was young |
| [02:37.27] |
I guess I was dumb felt like a punk |
| [02:39.52] |
The stench of guilt hung on my skin |
| [02:41.73] |
For weeks like a skunk |
| [02:42.88] |
And to this day |
| [02:44.01] |
I see the face of a stranger |
| [02:45.58] |
Who was drowning and I could have been her anchor |
| [02:48.36] |
If I had to do it all again I would've |
| [02:50.62] |
Stood tall and lent her my hand |
| [02:52.30] |
I would've fought like a man |
| [02:53.66] |
I would've come to her rescue and done all I can |
| [02:56.57] |
But the f**ked up thing is I'll never get that chance |
| [03:00.08] |
Never never never |
| [03:04.65] |
And there's only so long you can play devil's advocate |
| [03:08.01] |
Before the snake comes back |
| [03:09.35] |
And now your back is bit |
| [03:10.79] |
Half the worrying half the risk |
| [03:12.94] |
But a whole world of problems |
| [03:14.19] |
Come from playing devil's advocate |
| [03:15.64] |

| [03:18.99] |
Before the snake comes back |
| [03:20.24] |
