Fire Lyrics by Esham

She Loves Me Not

2020

[Verse 1]
I used to play the game of sin, but now I play the game to win
I don't like to repeat myself, so I don't got time to tell you again
If you don't know me right now 'cause you didn't know me back then
And if you knew what I knew, you wouldn't wanna be friends
I've been spittin' wicket shit since time began
Now crime is life and life is crime again
Heavy mental floss coincidental loss
Stray bullets shoot off, don't get caught in the cross
Jesus walks, but the Devil flies like a hawk
Hear no speak no evil, watch what you talk
Ain't shit illegal unless you get caught
I know they sellin' they souls, but mine ain't been bought

[Chorus]
[?] been to Hell and back

[Verse 2]
Another collect phone call from inside the psyche ward
Made me wanna hang myself with the mic cord
Thinkin' 'bout "what do I write for?"
Fall into the darkness or go to the light more
I fee like a nigga from Brightmore
Packin' my piece in case police wanna fight more
Never heard nobody say what I was born white for
Doin' wrong all your life, what you wanna be right for?
Look around, you can't tell you livin' in Hell
People used to the fire, they just livin' it well
I know I come from the Heavens but one time I fell
I know my soul is forsaken, but no I don't sell
(Leave me alone, leave me alone) Leave me alone
I'm trying to crack the glass dome on the world
Impregnate your girl with slugs, overdose from drugs
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
I did it all for the love, a hundred thousand feet above
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
Chem trails, stem cells, ill parallels
Knockin' on Heaven's doors from Hell's stairwells
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
You at the Devil's doorstep, ring the doorbell
*Doorbell* And I could show you more Hell
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
I'm just a hustler, collectin' my coins
From the same dope fiend streets as Donald Goines
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
The game's cold, I could tell you was real
I know a lot of soldiers on the battlefield that got killed
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
T-N-T been dead for five years, yo
I've been talkin' to him like he's still here, though
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
You might think I'm some fuckin' weirdo
I'm just the walkin' dead, let's get it clear, though
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
In a real world full of monsters with no conscious
And the violence against people who look like me is silenced
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
Who gives a fuck if they killed your brother?
You killed his cousin, we kill each other
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
'Cause we the killin' kind, nigga, I killed yours
Because you killed mine, you should've killed time
(Leave me alone, leave me alone)
Under friendly fire, you not my enemy
Thou shall not kill, it's still a sin to me

[Outro]
[?] been to Hell and back
In fire, [?]
Oh, [?], yeah
[?] for me to come back [?]
Fire, [?]
[?] been to Hell and back
And I ain't goin' back
Fire, fire, fire
