Crime Pays Lyrics by Vince Staples

0

[Verse 1: Vince Staples]
What these bitches want from a nigga, remember when they used to have love for a nigga
Runnin' round sayin' they gone dump on a nigga when they see him, and I hope they really mean it cause I'm ready when the time comes
Got stockpile guns, barrettas blacker than College Hill
Bullets in HD, shootin' where your momma live
No remorse cause fuck it, you get it how you live
If I die from a bullet it's cause I earned this shit
18 now everybody concerned, for Vince wasn't fucking with them when the money wasn't coming in
If I had a fuck to give I'll save it for a couple kids
Hopefully, they wouldn't live like they daddy did
Ain't shit till a nigga get Grammy big
Still down to bust a 6 rollin' with my bitch
They said they lookin' for the truth, this is what it is
Not the shit that you fucking with, yeah
[Chorus: Vince Staples]
And they'll probably never feel a nigga
Probably thinkin' that I'll probably never kill a nigga
Crime Pays I'm just tryna be the richer nigga
Got me praying to the lord they forgive a nigga, yeah
And they'll probably never feel a nigga
Probably thinkin' that I'll probably never kill a nigga
Crime Pays I'm just tryna be the richer nigga
Got me praying to the lord he forgive a nigga
[Verse 2: Joey Fatts]
Crime Pays, you grind it takes time
Never caught slippin so I'm sleeping with my 9
Hollow tip shells [?] niggas out of line
Dumping out the sunroof while a nigga ridin by
My niggas down to ride, my niggas down to [?]
You niggas gon die trying to stunt goin hard
You can catch me at the park, trappin for the cash
45 niggas stashed with a brown [?]
And we all gassed motherfuck brakes
And we all got warrants so we ducking from the jakes
Fuck the case and a nigga out on bail
We still chopping rocks put another on the scale
And a nigga never tell cause we all silent
Always tote hammers never checked into college
Dead homies tatted so a nigga paying homage
And you know that Crime Pays so i never stop robbing
[Chorus: Vince Staples]
And they'll probably never feel a nigga
Probably thinkin' that I'll probably never kill a nigga
Crime Pays I'm just tryna be the richer nigga
Got me praying to the lord they forgive a nigga, yeah
And they'll probably never feel a nigga
Probably thinkin' that I'll probably never kill a nigga
Crime Pays I'm just tryna be the richer nigga
Got me praying to the lord he forgive a nigga
