Dave East – Devil Eyes lyrics

[Verse 1: Dave East]
Before you shoot 'em, look 'em in his eyes
Introduce him to God, they ain't got shit to do with mines (Amen)
Shit get real nasty, gotta move your mom
It was either become a body or do some time
I knew a couple niggas, all they knew was crime (That's it)
Tryna disrepect the set is where we drew the line
Get killed, ask him what time it was when you knew the time
You check, found a gun in the crib you already knew was mine (On God)
The President don't give a fuck about the country (At all)
Them child support payments been fuckin' up your monthly (Damn)
It was hard to think in class knowin' you was hungry (Starve)
Bitches said you was trash just 'cause you was bummy
Chip on my shoulder, I felt a way about it
Opps caught me dolo, thought they had me, found my way up out it
You in the field, gotta walk through the streets, ain't no way around it
His mama lost her mind, she couldn't believe the way they found him

[Chorus: Dave East]
All through the ghetto we would terrorize
His closest nigga died, he ain't lettin' it slide (Uh uh)
He pray to God but he been lookin' through the Devil eyes
He got his mask on so nobody could recognize (Nobody)
I could paint a picture like I'm Basquiat (I can)
Every other day another body drop
Ain't nowhere to run if they surround the block (Nowhere)
We up with the sun, trap around the clock

[Verse 2: E-4]
How to get down
All the niggas that got on before him taught him how to get down
Specialize a [?], crack your crinown
Ridin' around in the foreigns, have they [?] out
Gotta make sure you covered up like a blanket or you gonna get covered up with a blanket
Deadbeat or fruitcake, can't be no edible arrangement
Comin' up outta the region where we at (Where we at)
Gotta be a lion, not a cat (Not a cat)
They don't wanna listen, don't wanna learn (Don't wanna learn)
They parents on yolo, they not concerned (They not concerned)
The cha cha, the cola, money I earned (Money I earned)
The bakin', the soda, I flipped and turned
They might not thought I paid attention but I was listenin' (I was listenin')
My master bedroom bigger than the house I grew up in (Grew up in)
Me, my bloods, my cousins, and my sibilings (And my sibilings)
I don't trust nobody, I ain't got no friends (I ain't got no friends, beeotch)

[Chorus: Dave East]
All through the ghetto we would terrorize
His closest nigga died, he ain't lettin' it slide (Uh uh)
He pray to God but he been lookin' through the Devil eyes
He got his mask on so nobody could recognize (Nobody)
I could paint a picture like I'm Basquiat (I can)
Every other day another body drop
Ain't nowhere to run if they surround the block
We up with the sun, trap around the clock

[Verse 3: Mozzy]
Ey, Facetime the snakey just to show the drakey
You ever stripped a nigga naked off a naked lady?
Several cases on the gravel where they tackled dude
Eukanuba for the shooters, that's a bag of food
Ask mama why he left, those niggas had to move
We hoppin' out, half of moons on a half a broom
Passes ain't permitted, ain't no passin' through
Unless you niggas tryna cop a [?] or two
Run a demonstration for initiation
Suck a quarter for the litigated situation
Niggas show up at your mama's, know no limitation
When we was into stealin' foreigns, you was into stealin' bases
You niggas was ditchin' class, we was ditchin' angels
Big bro 'posed to be proud his little nigga made it
It's written on they faces, I could feel the hatred
Fuck the money, it get gully, nigga still a gangsta

[Chorus: Dave East]
All through the ghetto we would terrorize
His closest nigga died, he ain't lettin' it slide (Uh uh)
He pray to God but he been lookin' through the Devil eyes
He got his mask on so nobody could recognize (Nobody)
I could paint a picture like I'm Basquiat (I can)
Every other day another body drop
Ain't nowhere to run if they surround the block
We up with the sun, trap around the clock
All through the ghetto we would terrorize
His closest nigga died, he ain't lettin' it slide (Uh uh)
He pray to God but he been lookin' through the Devil eyes
He got his mask on so nobody could recognize (Nobody)
I could paint a picture like I'm Basquiat (I can)
Every other day another body drop
Ain't nowhere to run if they surround the block
We up with the sun, trap around the clock
