The Way That It Goes Lyrics by Cognito

Strange Days Tour: A Decade of Excellence

0

[Verse 1]
Hip hop on these songs till these stones frozen
In my loansom till I'm going
Mixing off the potion and coasting
My shit is all in tact, so I don't want your baby daddy to holla back
Cut his neck in half, and hang his head right up next to my gun rack
Full of funny antics, a manic depressive
Question, his wardrobe looks like [?]
Drink a 5th of vodca after my sessions
[?] after confessions
Feeling in my gut's a massive egression
Laughs at depression
No one seems to get him enough to want to fuck with him
Till he's payed, now they wanna spend abuck with him
You gotta put your trust in 'm
Kid spits venom
In my dickies or my levi denoms
Bought a house in the berbs, funny that he still so hood
I never thought a high could feel so good
I never thought I'd get the shit that I got
Weather Middle finger's pointed straight to the top
I tell these motherfuckers
[Chorus]
They say "I wanna live like that"
Then they ask "mama, how you raise a kid like that?"
I got no time to take a break for these hoes
Money I make at these shows
All I can say is that's the way that it goes
These hoes, they come to my shows
What we do behind closed doors, it's just the way that it goes
[Verse 2]
See I'm a sick and twisted individual
Quick to get physical
Your shit's sort of invisible
I got a bunch of coffins, and I'm gonna leave you thoughtless
[?] like Tech N9ne moshpits
Get caushis, when the music stops and everyone pauses
Warning shots, full cip, everyone [?]
I'm fully out of options
My tip has got the best of me
The recipe is some Caribou Lou and some extosy
Got this model next to me, she flirtin for cirtain
Probably spent too much money on her, it's worth it, she perfect
Slipped her a Mickey, she dancing and twerking
So I can tell that it's working
Plus I'm a lightweight, so one shot and I'm hurtin
I leave the club with a car full of awesome
And a crew of white boys that can take out any obstical
You gotta hope for the best, takes a lot of hard work
And lots of love, I hit the Hollywood strip in a monstertruck
[Chorus]
They say "I wanna live like that"
Then they ask "mama, how you raise a kid like that?"
I got no time to take a break for these hoes
Money I make at these shows
All I can say is that's the way that it goes
These hoes, they come to my shows
What we do behind closed doors, it's just the way that it goes
[Verse 3]
Call him a roll model, he's a roll model
What a roll model, went on stage and drank the whole bottle
Kids probably a bad father
Absentee dad, that the shit he raps about, I know he has to be bad
He only talks about is bitches and drugs, and all the ass he gets at the clubs, and everyday he kicks it with thugs
He's maxed out, he's probably reached his pinical, so fucking pitiful
I get it though, he probably thinks it's cool to be a criminal
Check this out, nigga
Did a line, I ain't have to
Did a crime, I ain't have to
Time I ain't have to
Yeah I'm a hustler, do the shit for the money
Other half of the time I'm doing the shit cause it's funny
That's the motto for me, honey
Give you a shot to make you shout
I take it to my mom's, the walls are paper thin and the caibol's out
Now I'm too lazy to make the couch
So let's call it quits for now
Tell your friends he gets around
So you fucking with him now
[Chorus]
They say "I wanna live like that"
Then they ask "mama, how you raise a kid like that?"
I got no time to take a break for these hoes
Money I make at these shows
All I can say is that's the way that it goes
These hoes, they come to my shows
What we do behind closed doors, it's just the way that it goes
