Locked Up Lyrics by Crypt

Tales from the Crypt

2019

[Chorus]
(Get out of my way!)
I can be the one you want me to be
But that's too easy
Backed me in a corner now you will see
How much I fight back, homie
Don’t act like you fuckin' know me
I'll split your wig while spitting shit
I ain’t a one trick pony
Cause I can rap for hits, or I can rap for speed
Or make a heavy metal riff, and bitch that's the thing
I can do what I want, so don't you group me with punks
That's only rapping fast to rhyme words
I won't be locked up

[Verse 1]
I'm sick and tired of being stuck in this box that you put me in
So I'm picking the locks like a bitch upset looking for wigs
So count to 10, and by the time you get to five I'll be different
And switch up my deliverence, and have you feelin this shit
I said, One, you don’t wanna fuck with me
I see red when it comes to other punk MC’s
You see two, I'd rather be me than you
Cause I control what I do and you give me the views
Three, I’m a fiend when I feed on these beats
There ain't nobody like me, but still you compare them to C., we'll see
Four, Ima put your face to the floor
You tried to stain my name and I can't take no more
Five, it’s a lie If I'm not the greatest alive
And if you deny then you just igniting my fire, cause bitch
Six, feet deep, is where is where I lay yo ass down
Seven get the revered cause I'm praying on you rats like Owls
Eight, its too late, you've done sealed your fate
When you uttered my name, and tried to lock me up in this cage
Nine, time to break some necks
Make all you bitches regret
Blanket stating me and now
Ten here we go again

[Chorus]
(Get out of my way!)
I can be the one you want me to be
But that's too easy
Backed me in a corner now you will see
How much I fight back, homie
Don't act like you fuckin' know me
I'll split your wig while spitting shit
I ain't a one trick pony
Cause I can rap for hits, or I can rap for speed
Or make a heavy metal riff, and bitch that's the thing
I can do what I want, so don't you group me with punks
That's only rapping fast to rhyme words
I won't be locked up

[Verse 2]
I'm tired of being stuck inside the box you put me in
You've locked me in with keys and made it seem like this would be my end
But I am used to being behind bars
This is where my mind starts
Iron pen in my hand and in front of my eyeballs
And it's unfair
Typically you have a trial of sorts
Before you lock someone up according to horrid reports
And you're confusing me with your idea of what I have performed
Not what I have actually done, that thought was never explored
So you, put me in shackles and hand down my sentence
Life in prison, for trying to be something a little bit different
But no resentment exists within the illest named Crypt
Because resentment requires for me to give a shit
So just go and put me in a cell and I will plot my escape
You can't contain greatness with some little punk ass cage
It would be easy to play the role that you've thrown me into
But I'm an animal that's caged and I've got something to prove
Back me in a corner and you know that I will pounce
Back me in a corner you won't wanna be around
Back me in a corner I won't let you make a sound
Back me in a corner and you know its going down

[Chorus]
(Get out of my way!)
I can be the one you want me to be
But that's too easy
Backed me in a corner now you will see
How much I fight back, homie
Don't act like you fuckin' know me
I'll split your wig while spitting shit
I ain't a one trick pony
Cause I can rap for hits, or I can rap for speed
Or make a heavy metal riff, and bitch that's the thing
I can do what I want, so don't you group me with punks
That's only rapping fast to rhyme words
I won't be locked up

[Verse 3]
I think I proved my point
It's sad I had to break some joints
Why can't you just enjoy the music I make instead of destroy
My legacy that I'm making, the jealousy is so shameless
Take a peek at my name- it's C-R-Y-P-T, now engrave it into your brain so it stays in
I'm not the same as these lame kids
I have substance in my shit that I spit quick and that's amazing
Because it's difficult to do
But you just listen to the syllables that I spew, and see my white skin hue
And think I'm that guy only rapping wack rhymes
Bitch I will snap tight like you had a bad hat size
Act right
Think again before you say that shit to me
I'll give you one more chance before I go on a killing spree
So get me out of this cage so I can claim my place
Fame doesn't equal greatness- only skill equates
I'm rolling through on these tracks like a freight train
So bang bang to your brain, if you don't get out my way

[Chorus]
(Get out of my way!)
I can be the one you want me to be
But that's too easy
Backed me in a corner now you will see
How much I fight back, homie
Don't act like you fuckin' know me
I'll split your wig while spitting shit
I ain't a one trick pony
Cause I can rap for hits, or I can rap for speed
Or make a heavy metal riff, and bitch that's the thing
I can do what I want, so don't you group me with punks
That's only rapping fast to rhyme words
I won't be locked up

[Outro]
*heartbeat*
