This Time Around Lyrics by Cantrell

Beware the Sheep Clothing

2021

[Chorus]
Yeah
This time around, shit different
This time around, won't be no fuck shit
Nah, nigga, all us livin'
Nah, nigga, all us get it
This time around, shit different
This time around, won't be no fuck shit
Nah, nigga, all us with it (Yeah)
Nah, this all our business

[Verse 1]
Mama checkin' on me 'cause she know I'll hit the streets
Black car, black tint, black skin, nigga, can I breathe?
Niggas throwin' up Bs, throwin' up Cs, shootin' through your sheets
I wish Travis Luke could hit Zimmerman, yada mean?
Yeah, I got a dream (Oh, they ain't gonna like this one)
It's like they ain't gon' stop 'til we bust back (Hol' up, wait)
I ain't condonin' nothin'
I'm just sayin', homie, that's just facts (Hol' up, wait)
Yeah, shoulders cold as Nova Scotia
Be aware when you approach us
We don't dap it up with vultures
Handshakes sanitized for all thе dirt that y'all throw us (Hold on, I got a secret)
I bet you ain't know God takе sides (Hmm)
You either with the oppressed or the oppressor
Either with the angels or you with the devil
Now you with the A, okay, well nigga, let's ride
Yeah, this the silence of the lambs
Tell me where the shepherd?
Tell me where the pastor?
The down south Georgia boy with the helmet
How you feel? Black on black
Another straw that broke the camel's back
How you greedy with some stolen land?
We don't wanna pull the hammer back
I can see it, I can feel it
I keep thinkin', "What would Malcolm do if he could rap?"
If we don't get the better we demand
Then we gon' see you boys on Heaven Ave

[Chorus]
This time around, shit different
This time around, won't be no fuck shit
Nah, nigga, all us livin'
Nah, nigga, all us get it
This time around, shit different
This time around, won't be no fuck shit
Nah, nigga, all us with it (Yeah)
Nah, this all our business
This time around, shit different
This time around, won't be no fuck shit
Nah, nigga, all us livin'
Nah, nigga, all us get it
This time around, shit different
This time around, won't be no fuck shit
Nah, nigga, all us with it (Yeah)
Nah, this all our business

[Verse 2]
If I could just keep my pants from saggin'
Keep my girl from naggin', black, it'd be excellent, yeah? (Woah)
Get a little money, little status
12 won't get benevolent, yeah? (Woah)
I mean if we edify, we can unify the ratchet and righteous
I think we past all the subtle reminders
I need more than Harris & Biden when battlin' serpents and vipers
That was too preachy? Black as the Baptist
Black as the Benz in the back for the pastor
Black as the fist when it's raised and we at ya
I'ma need change for the chains, nigga, match it
Black as a panther in need of some answers
Black as Bobby, Huey, Hampton, and Angela
Black as exes callin' me like it's batter up
Jimmy Baldwin in the bookcase for stamina
Black as the heart when they damage us
Black as the hole in my pockets
Or black as square on IG when we standin' up
Blacken his eye if he man enough
White sheets get you cleaned up and janitored
We really black
You Becky black like tannin' up 'cause you ain't black enough (For the culture)
Beefin' with who? We black as Slutty Vegan
It might take a minute, but I need it scenic
I might break the meter just to free the dreamer
We too busy buildin', ain't no gettin even', I
I can see it, I can feel it
I keep thinkin', "What would Martin do if he could rap?"
If we don't get the better we demand
Then Yahweh got a tooly on His lap

[Chorus]
This time around, shit different
This time around, won't be no fuck shit
Nah, nigga, all us livin'
Nah, nigga, all us get it
This time around, shit different
This time around, won't be no fuck shit
Nah, nigga, all us with it
Nah, this all our business
This time around, shit different
This time around, won't be no fuck shit
Nah, nigga, all us livin'
Nah, nigga, all us get it
This time around, shit different
This time around, won't be no fuck shit
Nah, nigga, all us with it
Nah, this all our business
