MAINO - Criminal lyrics

rate me

All I ever been was a criminal

Maino left the street's it's a miracle

All I ever been was a criminal

Niggas said Maino left the street's it's a miracle

Left the drugs alone, took the thugs alone

If you know the words, won't you sing along

Ehey, ehey, now, ehey, ehey, now

Ehey, ehey, now, ehey, ehey, now

Rolling through the city in my big wheel

Raindrops dancing on my windshield

I can see the future in on plane view

While my past is peeking though my rear view

It's a miracle, how I made it out the slums

They said I'll be dead before I'm 21

Look ma, here's a gift from your oldest son

Never had a house so I'm bout to buy you one

Cause I remember days we needed help

Now it's champagne on the shelf

Trying to balance fame and the wealth

Made a name for myself

But tell me what's important, the game or my health

So this is for the ones that remember me before rap

Where my only source of money came from home crack

Young boy, big heart, quit the click clack

Misled, little head and a big hat

All I ever been was a criminal

Niggas said Maino left the street's it's a miracle

Left the drugs alone, took the thugs alone

If you know the words, won't you sing along

Ehey, ehey, now, ehey, ehey, now

Ehey, ehey, now, ehey, ehey, now

This single ..., I ain't really lyrical

It's cool feel, get it, it ain't meant for you

You never faced the judge when he sentences you

You couldn't walk a mile in my Louie shoes

I used to play the block trying to dodge the ...

Ask bird, ask cream, they remember me

They remember me and dog and that blue ford

No class pants holding up that 44

Young and wild, headed for that ...

Before I knew it, I was in that pen wild

No music, way before the videos

... came to see me on the visit yo

Can't forget Fatty and Serena

Used to write me letters, it helped me keep my head up

I was trapped in, but you had my back then

Green prison clothes, I ain't even rap then

All I ever been was a criminal

Niggas said Maino left the street's it's a miracle

Left the drugs alone, took the thugs alone

If you know the words, won't you sing along

Ehey, ehey, now, ehey, ehey, now

Ehey, ehey, now, ehey, ehey, now

Yeah, things different for me, people listen to me

Little girls they see me, and snap pictures of me

You never know, never say never

Used to think that I will be in the street forever

Me and mouse yeap, me and Seino,

Early 90's baby wharrup to Gino

Laying back, pretty women bring me breakfast

Thinking back I kept the Tec and the Lexus

No record deal, just a big dream

Hoping the coke will bring me everything

Cause all I ever been was a criminal

You either end up in jail or in a funeral

Shout out to the homies I grew up with

Used to shoot, used to rob, sell drugs with

Bad choices, good friends turn to memories

Still the same, still maino, I remember me

All I ever been was a criminal

Niggas said Maino left the street's it's a miracle

Left the drugs alone, took the thugs alone

If you know the words, won't you sing along

Ehey, ehey, now, ehey, ehey, now

Ehey, ehey, now, ehey, ehey, now

Maino remembers the miracle of his ability to make it out of the hood, and shows everyone that thought all he’d ever be was a “Criminal” know that they were wrong with his newly released track, for which he also made a video.. His album "The Day After Tomorrow" drops on February 28.
