Joe Budden - State Of You lyrics
rate me<BR>
<i>[Chorus: Frou Frou sample]</i><br>
If you think that it's so damn easy<br>
Then what do you need me for?<br>
Just look at the state of you<br>
Babe, snap out of it<br>
You're not listening to this<br>
<br>
<i>[Joe Budden]</i><br>
Yeah... talk to 'em! Ohh<br>
HUH? Joey!<br>
It's, it's, that on top<br>
<br>
Must be I'm just avoidin the inevitable, dodgin my fate<br>
So many things a nigga gotta escape<br>
Autobiographical, I need my life to maybe hop on a page<br>
that'll end with a sigh, goodbye, with my mouth open cockin a gauge<br>
How you the greatest at your job, but they dockin your pay?<br>
Guess when God's holdin a bar they start mockin your ways<br>
Murder my fans while I'm rockin on stage<br>
Naw let me chill, I ain't thinkin at a logical state<br>
I catch 'em while they noddin they head, sayin the words<br>
And start a blood bath, right as they repeatin the verse<br>
at the show let 'em know that they help lead to me bein disturbed<br>
I'm thinkin {"You're not making any sense"} ha ha, listen (OHH!)<br>
How much longer you expect me to be degraded<br>
by niggaz who can't appreciate bein appreciated?<br>
Y'all made this beef related<br>
One less person to judge, just one more problem alleviated (HUH?)<br>
<br>
<i>[Chorus]</i><br>
<br>
<i>[Joe Budden]</i><br>
Ya mean, uh, fruck's goin on?<br>
Yeah! Listen<br>
<br>
I'll stand before your honor, without a alibi, lost kinda<br>
Just a product of a lost genre<br>
Cuffed like I'ma cause drama, headline un-remorsed trauma<br>
Sweat drippin from my head like I performed a concert<br>
No alibi for my unlawful conduct<br>
I need a pardon from the president, call Obama<br>
And tell him I was goin all out<br>
I was doin God's work, I thought the nigga called out<br>
<br>
{"Snap out of it, you're not making any sense"}<br>
They don't hear me, check it!<br>
<br>
You lookin at a more honest improve in me<br>
All of the comments and scutiny, drive him to lunacy<br>
Committin hate crimes as if I got immunity<br>
A opportune time to have opportunity<br>
Not, but when he don't stop by it just ruins me<br>
Pride is persuin me, why's it rebukin me?<br>
I got demons by my door, staked out<br>
I'm inside goin over my escape route<br>
<br>
<i>[Chorus w/ Budden singing along]</i><br>
<br>
<i>[Interlude: Frou Frou sample]</i><br>
Now I've had it up to here<br>
Don't ever try that again<br>
Why are you so quiet so suddenly?<br>
Go on, have it<br>
You're just dying to tryyyyy me!<br>
<br>
<i>[Joe Budden]</i><br>
Yeah, uh-huh-uh, uhh<br>
Muh'frucker, uh, uh<br>
Let me tell you<br>
<br>
Yo, see I'm in search of privacy<br>
On e'ry social network, but don't wan' network with society<br>
That's, probably why my net worth ain't so high to me<br>
These Percosets work, now they FUCKIN with my sobriety<br>
I'm chasin a hit - all in Heath Ledge<br>
(Dark Knight) overdose, I ain't chasin the SHIT!<br>
I got a audience, they just got me hatin this shit<br>
Or is it how I view life, and how vacant it is<br>
Watch me and see a horrible movie, bad reviews<br>
Scattered views with a cold heart, wrong attitude<br>
I ain't got a thing in common with these rapper dudes<br>
Nigga! {"You're not making any sense"}<br>
Okay, aside from some drawn-out thoughts, mags and tools<br>
I don't think they know what it FEEL like to be battered, bruised<br>
And still they can't see me with the ink<br>
So try fuckin the world ain't as easy as you think, nigga!<br>
<br>
<i>[Chorus + Interlude]</i><br>
<br>
<i>[Outro: Joe Budden]</i><br>
Oh, Joey! Ta-ha<br>
Fruck's goin on?<br>
You need me for?<br>
Fuck them all niggaz, geah<br>
The fruck's goin on?<br>
Nigga! Ta-ha, yeah<br>
It's, it's...<br>
Warn yourself<br>
<BR><BR>
<BR>
