Lyrics

I'm Serious

[Pusha T]

OK, Pusha..minus the T

Niggas is talkin' too blasphemous

Tell me is it these Asscher cuts that got you thinkin'

I'm not in touch with that mask 'n glove

Don't let the Reverend close your casket cause

We think you thinkin'

These verses is curses, the only thing worse is

I'm the ringmaster of the circus

Meanin' that, I'm the only one in the show with purpose

Most of you motherfuckers don't scratch the surface

Look, still ghetto, still tote heavy metal

Still throw a nickname on all of my vehicle

Like the Copperfield coupe, now you see it now you don't

With one flick of the wrist wow! the roof will go poof! (poof)

I'm an achiever make all of you believers

And I'll be damned if you overthrow Virginia Caesar

Spend a day, sin away, walk with me

Hug corners in the hood like a ghetto renegade, switch!

Spend a way, rolls gold Jésus

Pink diamonds face flush like it was dunked in pink lemonade

Listen, I'm not actin', this ain't rappin', this live in action

Let's consider all the facts in

I got caught dealin' some weight back when

Now that I'm blown, it's new to men

I know its hurts to see it, but players please believe it

[Hook: Pusha T (2x)]

I'm cool with your wishin', don't talk cause I'm listenin'

Fuck 'round and end up missin' if you're curious

No weed or no vodka, my soul will make me pop ya

Don't make me have to milk box ya, I'm serious

[Malice]

See how ya boy do, I pull up in that ride quick

50 on the wrist leanin', niggas is sick

Steamin', they can't understand the meanin'

So they plot and conjure up ways to interrupt my well-bein'

But that 9's been a damn good friend

Trustworthy, made it to see 30 and I owe it all to him

Jewels lookin' as if I done robbed a vault

So if your bitch takes an interest it is not her fault

I mean, look, head to toe heavy in weight

Pockets loaded, hey I must say I take the cake

They speak ill, but words don't break him bone

They bounce off him, cause see him is purchasin' homes

See his stones, how they complement each other?

Size of the rocks and how they fluctuate in color

That him is me get a clue enough's enough

Took it easy on y'all fuckers and I ain't even rimmed my truck (Uhh)

To put it simple I'm a rarity, ma

From the cars to the jewels what clarity, ha

Stick with me show you life that's out of this world

And I ain't lyin' to you love, I only lie to my girl

I lust for the riches, what a treat this is

The Lord is dealin' with my demons and my weaknesses

God forgive, lose it all or God forbid

But from the Cradle 2 The Grave I'm a live

[Hook (4x)]
