Chorus: repeat 2X
All things, ain`t, what they seem
You`ll get washed; even if you`re way too clean
[Opio]
I was ridin around the Lake gettin smoked last night
Seen a gang of businessmen pilin out the Scottish Rite
It was just lascivious, cuz ducked in the three-way
Givin those ridiculous handshakes to the PD and the DA
But I`m hip to the sign language it`s just an exchange
of the blood brotherhood who remains nameless
But to me y`all famous, and I got game just the same
Man it floods my brain, ya can`t frame us
[Pep Love]
They got plans, plots and schemes
Like a dope fiend tryin to get that ice cream cola
[Opio]
My nigga hold up, things is not as they seem
You get washed; even if you`re way too clean
[Pep Love]
Deceptions inception and interception of our direction
is intertwined with what goes on in our minds
Take a look at your reflection
What you perceive is based on what you believe is true
Shackled and chained and thinkin you as free
as a eagle in the sky - need I remind you?
The pen is an inkwell, niggaz is slaves
Even if we not locked up, we on our way
[Opio]
They got plans, plots and schemes
Like a dope fiend tryin to get that ice cream cola
[Pep Love]
My nigga hold up, things is not as they seem
You`ll get washed; even if you`re way too clean
Chorus
[Pep Love]
I`m bent like a slinky, where the hoes at?
Just got paid, pockets on fat
Friday night, everything is right
til Opio hung a left then I seen his lights (siren)
But we B-Legit like The Savage
We da shit, got L`s and a pocket full of cabbage
One time did a search and found we had scratch
Itched it and took us downtown
Matched ..
[Opio]
.. descriptions of two individuals who just did a bank heist
Small timin shanked the guard twice in his neck
A Purple Heart Vietnam vet
They test me and eye-witness fingered out Pep
So the next logical step was: I drove the getaway
Accessory to murder, court date set for May
Put my ass in North County on set for Pelican Bay
And since I`m not Orenthal J., I can`t pay
Shapiro the dinero to get away clean
A nigga got twenty years though, know what I mean?
[Pep Love]
They got plans, plots and schemes
Like a dope fiend tryin to get that ice cream cola
[Opio]
My nigga hold up, things is not as they seem
You get washed; even if you`re way too clean
Chorus
[Outro]
Does anybody know what the situation is?
Do you know what we can do and what we can`t do?
What we can say and what we can`t say?
I don`t know that anymore.
And I don`t have enough time to go and research all the laws.
So I`m in the position
that the only thing I can say about that is FUCKIT.
