Tlc - Sumthin' Wicked This Way Comes lyrics

When da only sign we had was picket

But now in '94 it be

The way somethin' come wicked

Gangs killin' others fo colors

Thangs that we wear fo fashion

Other brothers take it fo a reason

To be blastin' what da kcuf is goin' on

Not soft like buttercups but

Had enough of singin' dat same song

See I stayed across da street from da projects

Took out yo momma trash and groceries

To her trunk to keep my pockets

Fat like cellulite only been to jail one week

Fo some shullbit and I pray to God I won't repeat

I shoulda pulled it when I had da chance to

No I shouldna did dat 'cause if I did dat

Yall would not hear dat fat shit

Dat keeps you on yo tippy-

Toes like dat sellout not callin' no names

But really who's bad

I go through obstacles like a whole box

Of condoms you can't forget

Where you come from

Take a good look in the mirror and tell

Me do you like what you see

Masters of deception coruption and evil

But you're always quick to poin tthe finger

At me

Won't somebody tell me

Chorus:

I just don't understand

The ways of the world today

Sometimes I feel like there's nothing

To live for

So I'm longing for the days of yesterday

What gave you the right to misjudge me

And write me off on the wall

Acting as if you understand me

In reality you just don't know me at all

Sometimes I can't help but wonder

If this was how it's meant to be

But if you search deep enough in your soul

You'll always find a slight reminder of me

Won't somebody tell me

Chorus

A-yo

If we could all agree to lettin'

Our souls become free of that sweet

Bitterness then whose chest would

Have the most seeds

I keep misfocusin' my needs

And this stress on my back

With them caps they be blastin'

Into my knap sack

Ain't no accidental deathtraps

My mishap is the fact that

I'm destined to snap

It's when I feel as though my body's

Able to go my mind is ready to flow

Did you know first you catch

And then I throw

It's my own sense of time

If I'm late it's 'cause i am endin' my day

Just when the sun shines

And still gently advising the arisin'

Of the moon as it rolls around

Into my soundproof dimension

Chorus
