Strange Lyrics by Will Tell

The Will Tell Compilation Vol. 3: Where Theirs a Will Theirs a Way (2001 Release Version)

2001

[Hook: Will Tell] (x2)
People are strange when you’re a stranger
The streets are empty and no one’s out
People act shady when you’re a stranger
No one loves you when you’re down and out

[Verse 1: Will Tell]
Yo, yo, yo, yo, when I was down on my luck, nigga, you wasn’t there
Only my StressFest niggas blowing smoke in the air
This ain’t no walk down Easy Lane
We drink SoCo and Pepsi to ease the pain
Step back and peep the game
Analyze this, nigga, freeze the frame
[?]—bitch, you could keep your chain
I open doors for my niggas with the key to fame
Try to stop us, end up in the deepest grave
12 o’clock, wolves come out and creep with flame
My niggas chop off your Pinky—now meet The Brain
Will Tell, motherfucker. Peep the name
After I coin the phrase, y’all could keep the change
I only make hot shit to leave the streets in flames
Just a crazy motherfucker that believes he’s sane
I’m liable to split your head like a Easter egg
Run over you with a jeep, plane, or a fleet of trains
So if your man got you into this, then he’s to blame
Pull your cards, Ace, King, Queen of Spades
Eye for an eye, two for two is an even trade

[Hook: Will Tell] (x2)
People are strange when you’re a stranger
The streets are empty and no one’s out
People act shady when you’re a stranger
No one loves you when you’re down and out

[Verse 2: Will Tell]
Yo, I’m a role model with little haters, little troublemakers
Little thieves, little G’s, and little players
A kid hated by the parents of every neighbor
Drank 40s, then go out and take shit from strangers
Cutting out of school, every day a different caper
Cheat on every test—if not, I’ll flunk every paper
Type to wile out and cut you if I had a razor
But now, my busted rhymes tougher than a navigator
Break life into frames like an animator
No. 2 flow—half lead, half eraser
That means that you get shot up and rubbed out
‘Cause we The Marines and y’all just The Cub Scouts
Overcast rainy skies and dumb clouds
In my pursuit of intelligent life, but none found
I let off one round into the sky
For my Brooklyn, New York niggas, live and let die

[Hook: Will Tell] (x2)
People are strange when you’re a stranger
The streets are empty and no one’s out
People act shady when you’re a stranger
No one loves you when you’re down and out

[Outro: Will Tell]
Will Tell, nigga. Exclusive shit. Straight up 2G, 2001. Metaphor on the beat, nigga. Out like that
