Joe Budden - Stained lyrics

rate me

[DJ On Point] The name of this shit right here is called Stained

[Sample- Staind: Outside]

I'm on the outside and I'm looking in

I can see through you, see your true colours

Inside you're ugly, ugly like me

I can see through you, see through the real you

[Joe Budden]

Lemme talk to them real quick

It's, it's, it's what? It's that On Top music

Niggaz said the only cat I cared about is myself

When shit's thick, don't nobody's whereabouts but myself

When you're faced with it all and your back's against the wall

You'll be listenin' but all you hear about is yourself

Tell me what you supposed to do when yourself ain't reliable

You're lookin' in the mirror but yourself ain't desirable

Need another nigga besides yourself on the side of you

Can't listen to yourself, all he do is lie to you

Now tell me who's supposed to have your best intrest

When shit ain't lookin' up, you start havin' less intrest

Tryin' to leave the hood but the slugs keep commin'

Keep chasin' the buck but the buck keep runnin'

I don't trust nobody, I don't love nobody

I don't fuck with nobody but me, I can't lose

No moves'll be funny and I never let myself down

How so? I don't expect too much from me

[Sample]

I'm everything the hip hop critics try and _____

Got no problem bringin' out the shit hip hop hides

So I do the club shit for the blind, they can't see

You write some substance and sometimes they can't read

Needle in the haystack, hidden jewel the most

So fly, down to earth, he's so cool to most

A regular hood nigga with he's two the most

And he's so smart, he's stupid. Still a fool to most

Tell me how could somebody so sane, be so off

So normal, he's not. It's so strange, he's so lost

And you're lookin' for someone to blame, there's no fault

Now you're feelin' all this pain, there's no source

Eyes open, I can't blink right now, I can't think right now

Bartender, I need a drink right now

Pen movin' but there's not enough ink right now

Not a ship you can't sink right now

[Sample]

T-shirt filthy nigga, eyes lookin' like a guilty nigga

Beard look like he's a Philly nigga

Fistball like somebody tryna steal me nigga

I pour my heart out on wax, you gotta feel me nigga

And no over the counter that can heal me nigga

Gun cocked like there's some nigga tryna kill me nigga

And try whatever it is you tryna deal me nigga

'Lest they got some new shit that might grill me nigga

I pull out like break me off, peel me nigga

The games short like I owe you, bill me nigga

Unless you're a thick bitch that might appeal to me nigga

Naw don't beat me down, don't drill me nigga

I'm like really nigga, I'm too ill to these niggaz

How long you think this games gonna conceal me nigga

Even if I don't scan a few milly my nigga

I fell and I got up and I'm still me nigga

[Talking]

It's, it's, it's what? It's that On Top music
