But Lyrics by Deem Spencer

Pretty Face

2019

(Intro)
I'm not keeping that

(Hook)
Brooklyn! Brooklyn!
Cousin! Cousin!
I'm finna find a way to way away
Don't wait for nothin'
Don't wait for nothin'
Ain't shit comin'

You hate this island
You wait in silence
I hate this, honest
We ain't that common
Wish to later climb in
What a way to come in
We ain't too common

(Verse 1)
City right end of the coast
None of the family close
Shittier end of the rope
A pity I ended as ghost
If only I did it at GOAT
I said it, I did it, I died, Smoked
When I get hit, I might cry
Don't cry

(Hook)
Brooklyn! Brooklyn!
Cousin! Cousin!
I'm finna find a way to way away
Don't wait for nothin'
Don't wait for nothin'
Ain't shit comin'

(Verse 2)
But Satan
Ooh nigga, don't say that
They look at us crazy
Good lookin, go 'head
I'm finna find a way to way away
Don't wait for shit
Don't wait for nothin'
Ain't shit comin'
But head
But head
But head
But head
But head
But head
But head

(Get that head nigga. Get that head nigga. I see you over there gettin' that head nigga. Ew, nasty nigga.)

(Hook)
Brooklyn! Brooklyn!
Buzzin'! Buzzin'!
I'm finna find a way to way away
Don't wait for nothin'
Don't wait for nothin'

(Verse 3)
It's me like myself and Irene
We in here as far as I see
Niggas go public and hide things
He need a hug and a Icee
99 problems ain't nothin', I got 101
One of my problems big dick
A few of my problems a bitch
She tell me "Te amo my friend"
Way too much time on my hands
You know how I'm gonna end
You know...
You know where I'm gonna go
Said "Come with me, vamanos, I'm in a hole."
She was like "No"
I gotta respect it
Check it
If I got it, I'mma get it this second
If I got it, I'mma get it in a heartbeat
I could never misstep it
I could never misplace you
Everybody gave me distance
God wasn't hardly farther
Since had me on the doorstep
"Just wait, I'mma take you the park"
Like twice
Them days was nice
Daddy wasn't hardly father
Draggin in the heartfelt
Pull up on Jacky as an artful dodger
Like a nigga play for...

(Hook)
Brooklyn! Brooklyn!
Cousin! Cousin!
I'm finna find a way to way away
Don't wait for nothin'
Don't wait for nothin'
Ain't shit comin'

You hate this island
You wait in silence
I hate this, honest
We ain't that common
Wish to later climb in
What a way to come in
We ain't too common

(Interlude: Ana)
A little while after, everybody's still like, getting angry
Niggas like "I'm boutta jump the tracks and start walking"
And then, um
Somebody goes over the announcer and they're like
"Ayo, everybody. Light your blunts! Light your blunts!"
I'm like "Oh nah, niggas hijacked the MTA shit", yo
Everybody laughing, keekeeing
Another thing later, they're like "Yea, we're about to be leaving shortly"
The thing is not leaving no time shortly! Like
No time shortly son
So we're sitting, sitting, sitting, sitting, sitting continuously
Niggas getting tight
Niggas just start jumping out and walking the shit down to the thing
So, I'm not gonna do it
Cause I'm like, yikes
Like, I don't know what the fuck's going on
They cut the shit on and I get run over by a train, and now it's a mass-casualty thing
I don't remember where I was but I know that I covered the part about the nigga saying "Everybody roll up." over the intercom
So, anyways
After that, niggas was continuing to freakout, niggas was continuing to jump...
