Lyrics to A Most Violent Year
"I have nothing, and somehow you ended up with everything you wanted."
"It wasn't meant to be."
"WHAT IS THAT SUPPOSED TO MEAN?"
"I know what you wanted, I know, but you have to forget that now."
Niggas smile in my face like I don't know, and can't see the doubt in their eyes
'Til I'm waitin' in their crib with they kids shoutin' "Surprise!"
You keep a heart full of hatred, and plus a mouth full of lies (Why's that?)
Most niggas only be showin' out for they pride (Is that so?)
Most family only be showin' out when you die
The funny thing about life is nobody gets out alive, huh (Damn!)
You gotta be feelin' out for the vibes
They won't show us how to live, only teach us how to survive
Nеver take it personal (Nah)
I wеnt from "Nah, you not versatile" to "Let me get a verse from you"
Cut these niggas off, I'm so surgical
The nerve of you
I don't wanna murder you, but talkin' sideways'll get you vertical
I shoot game when it's from half court, I'm Jack Frost
The Feds came in with the task force and attack dogs (Let's go)
You know you dyin' when the mask off
The shottie take half off, ya body is flyin' without a passport
Life's a test, take a crash course (Yeah)
Think about it, you can ruin ya future 'cause of your past thoughts (Real shit)
You Ricky Bobby with the cast off, poor liars
All bias, runnin' on tracks thinkin' you all fire (Hahaha)
A most violent year (Yeah), violent as any (Word)
But hindsight is always 20/20 (20/20)
Violent as any
But hindsight is always 20/20
"I'm only interested in this company growing, and when it isn't, it's not very funny to me at all
These people work very hard for their money, and these other guys are ripping them off, treating 'em poorly because they don't know
So when you look them in the eye, you have to believe that we are better. And we are
But you will never do anything as hard as staring someone straight in the eye and telling the truth."
