Early Bird Lyrics by Tricky

Mixed Race

0

You know the squirrel
I move just like one
I am the early bird
There's no stress
Cause I'm the best
I don't care what you heard
You know the squirrel
I move just like one
I am the early bird
There's no stress
Cause I'm the best
I don't care what you heard

When I was a young kid
I had a greed
I wanted money and weed
Took what I need
A mixed race boy
They call me a bread
A mixed up boy
I was angry indeed
I had the thirst for a need
I needed to feed
My friends hurt people
They make them bleed
That's what they did
To get what they need
I found it too hard
Waiting for God

Guns on my telly
Guns in my celly
You show me a gun
My legs turn to jelly
Prison is smelly
Life's hustle and bustle
But the time for the hustle

If people see hustlin'
They try muscle in

You know the squirrel
I move just like one
I am the early bird
There's no stress
Cause I'm the best
I don't care what you heard
You know the squirrel
I move just like one
I am the early bird
There's no stress
Cause I'm the best
I don't care what you heard

When I was a young kid
I had a greed
I wanted money and weed
Took what I need
A mixed race boy
They call me a bread
A mixed up boy
I was angry indeed
I had the thirst for a need
I needed to feed
My friends hurt people
They make 'em bleed
That's what they did
To get what they need
I found it too hard
Waiting on God

Guns on my telly
Guns in my celly
You show me a gun
My Lex turn to jelly
Prison is smelly
Life's hustle and bustle
Take time for the hustle

If people see hustlin'
They try muscle in

You know the squirrel
I move just like one
I am the early bird
There's no stress
Cause I'm the best
I don't care what you heard
You know the squirrel
I move just like one
I am the early bird
There's no stress
Cause I'm the best
I don't care what you heard
