Broken Glass |
Kweli!!! |
Yeah! |
They wasn’t expecting this! |
that’s why ya Hahaha |
Gotta hope for the best and play 'em for the worst, c’mon! |
Muhfuckers is history! |
C’mon! |
This the story of — Lucy In The Sky Wit Diamonds |
Ask her why she crying, she wanna live, she got no time for dying |
Was a science, dreams too big for a small town |
She gotta get to New York and watch a door fall down |
Hopped off the Greyhound, gotta make her way now |
She sleeping on the park benches in the playground |
But cash burn quick, don’t wanna have to turn trick |
Ready to quit 'til she met the super pimp |
Flashing his toothy smile that drove little Lucy wild |
She quick to hop up on his dick straight Hoopie style |
She let the fella hit but she sang she sell-a-bit |
He ain’t buying that, she ain’t selling it She looking for love in all of the above |
Believing videos, trying to back up all on a thug |
Who wanna — put it in her, withdraw like a Citi card |
But now she shake that ass for tips at the titty bar |
(Pharrell) |
Broken glass — everywhere! |
(IT'S LOUDER!!) |
Louder — than a bomb shattered in in the air (IT'S LOUDER!!) |
Try to hold back your tears baby! |
(IT'S LOUDER!!) |
Wait a second, what happens here baby? |
(IT'S LOUDER!!) |
Broken glass — everywhere! |
(IT'S LOUDER!!) |
Louder — than a bomb shattered in in the air, yeah |
(How many of y’all think you can do what we do?!) |
Yeah! |
Wait a second (One! Two! Three! C’mon!) |
Dreams shattered like broken glass |
Press ignore it and your hopes get broken fast |
You complain for the life you supposed to have |
But when you try to make plans God is known to laugh |
Throw a song on the phonograph, and Lucy start wilin |
The trick start smiling, watch the loot start flying |
The Gucci start pilling up, she live designer plush |
Start lining up the coke so she could find a rush |
Time’s up, she’s about to turn 33 |
Her shit started to sag, she got surgery |
Now cats are used to drive past her like a Church van |
Acting on thirst, 'She Wants To Move’like a N.E.R.D. |
fan |
Bigger house, 10,000 dollar purse fam |
She let you in, she wanted rent by the 1st man |
She the ring leader in a clique of birds |
And they shadowy, like the silhouette behind the curtain |
She was a small city girl with big city dreams |
Niggaz try to figure how to get up in them jeans |
Put her in them scenes, get her on the team |
Hit her wit the cream 'til they figured out the schemes |
Now she all up in the club looking for a new love |
Really like Huey Lewis looking for a new drug |
Cause coke’s getting old, started free basing |
Graduated to crack, smack on occasion |
Not catching the bus, but back at the station |
Back and forth pacing, acting all impatient |
Last hundred dollars, she got to 'Get By' |
Now gotta make a choice, go home or get high |
Mommy and daddy miss her, she left for the fame |
Now what’s left is the dirt that’s thrown on her name |
She need a ticket home if it’s the right course |
Instead she bought a ticket to ride the white horse |
