Devin The Dude Album

[No lyrics]

Once Upon the wings of love
I dashed up on the craft
wrinkled foreheads greet me, but I'm high therefore I laugh
attendants rush me, to check my bags
they said "hurry, cuz we 15 minutes behind
we have one seat left and its way in the back
it shouldnt be too hard to find, go sit down."
I said aiite bitch, but I said it kinda low
It won't no problem go towards the back I go
had a little weed on me didn't want it to show
some helicopter took my patna 3 months to grow
so, I slid to the rear to find my chair
Hey pretty girl is this my chair here?
the key Y) didn't even crack a smile
She smelt my black and Mild
she think I be actin wild
and she refused to move her purse
out the little little seat freak trying to get the dude to curse
wanted a nigga to rant and rave
just because of my color, thinkin I cant behave
I said, "Pardon me ma'am, excuse me miss
But there's no reason for you to be pissed
I done payed my dues, payed my bills and fees
Just wanna sit by the window here while I'm feeling the breeze" caise

[chorus]
Right now I feel so good that I
won't let nothin or nobody bring me down
cant wait until the pilot finally levitate
trying to find a way to feel just like this way everyday

Breezier, Breezier
Breezier, Breezier
Breezier, Breezier

Attendants walked the asles as if we were in some type of camp
I seen all my belongings, big and small things
disappearing underneath on ramp
man, I started feeling kinda wicked
should have never bought a ticket
put on my seat belt in case
we land in shit creek
I had to grit me teeth
but then things kinda felt in place
I couldnt wait, broke out my big bag
put it on the tray table
wheels start rolling, table wouldnt stay stable
Waiter walked up and said do you want a beer?
I said yeah, he got happy start doing a cheer
He gave a bag of nuts to the nigga next in line
Put on a gas mask and pointed to the exit sign
I'm checkin it odd, I'm feeling the breeze
and everybody on the plane lookin at me, cause

[Chorus]
Right now I feel so good that I
won't let nothin or nobody bring me down
cant wait until the pilot finally levitate
tryin to find a way to feel just like this everyday

Breezier, Breezier [x3]

The weather started getting rough
and the big ass plane shook
I started trippin, cause everybody was flippin and dippin
and even hiding pocket books from crooks
I'm like look
I know its kinda scary, its a long way down
you should have had your shit together when you was on the ground
aint no time for whining and crying about dying
cause when its your time, its your time, but right now I'm

[chorus]
feel so Right now I feel so good that I
won't let nothin or nobody bring me down
cant wait until the pilot finally levitate
trying to find a way to feel just like this everyday

[Chorus x2]
Our life used to be so wonderful
yeeaah
but ooo look at me now

[Devin the Dude]
Ya lookin at me strange
I got my weed I got my drank and other thangs
I been trying to adjust and focus
I want to quit drinkin this shit but, no luck
no bucks at the end of the night and I'm drunk
the crown royal Hennessy and Budweiser's no punk
nobody to save me with the proper technique
but I can't point the finger at nobody but me
but now I lose, I've been used, I've been lied on
I used to be private but now I feel I'm being spied on
it used to be so wonderful and so care free
but now the evilness tries to run up and scare me
and dare me to do somethin wrong somethin crazy somethin wild
was I thinkin or did I act into 2 people and smile
hidin bodies in the back of an ol' school 'llac
I forgot alot of shit but now I know for a fact that

[Chorus x2]

[Devin the Dude]
It used to be no wonders about who ain't feelin me
no spouse runnin through the house aimed at killin me
no love lost because emotions are deep
and no worries about where to go and no secrets to keep but
look at me now it seems that everybody know
where I been and even where I gotta go
and they'll try to help me out if it would benefit them but
if not they'll probably be like fuck him
but I can't get mad at em' I probably had em' by my side
maybe they think my promiseswas premeditated lies
and at a blink of an eye somehow I'm not trust-worthy
the purest heart you've ever known is now just dirty
I used to come through wit all kinds of bags of goodies
pocket full of change never have to ask for pussy
gettin the party started like lickity split
but now when I come through all they say is aww shit

[Chorus x2]

[Devin the Dude]
how can I win when situation seems kinda sticky
get relief without reachin for me a 40 oz
mickey or a pick me up would only lay me down flat
noddin off wakin up wonderin where I'm at
aw shit, damn where did everybody go
how did I end up on the floor I can't find my bill fold and
I got my keys and my car's been towed
I'm out walkin tryin to find the niggas lookin at me throwed ohh
always me break out the violins (get up and try again before you sin again)
what aww who is that I'm hearin shit
gatherin my thoughts is like tryin to build a pyramid
now I'm finally realizin it's all simple
It's how you take it like a pimple on ya face
you bust it you break it you scrape it off
and uh what you do is what you can do
it's what a man do anyway anyhow
I'm a cool brother

[Chorus x3]

Anythang is plenty man and is better than an nothin at all
Anythang is plenty man
Anythang is plenty man and is better than an nothin at all
Anythang is plenty man

You ain't the only one who got problems
You ain't the only one who knows pain
Get up off your ass and just solve it
You still got a chance to try to change - try this shit again

[Refrain]
Really ain't no need for self pity
Cryin when there's no one else around
Life I know sometimes can get shitty
Even shittier when sleepin on the ground - no need to complain

[Refrain]

[Interlude]

[Refrain]

You ain't the only one who got problems
You ain't the only one who knows pain
Get up off your ass and just solve it
You still got a chance to try to change - try this shit again
Really ain't no need for self pity
Cryin when there's no one else around
Life I know sometimes can get shitty
Even shittier when sleepin on the ground - no need to complain

[Refrain]

Notihin at all - nothin at all - anything is plenty man
I hope you realize that everybody gonna need somebody sometime
Anythang is plenty man and is better than an' nothin at all
Anythang is plenty man...

[devin crying]
[man]
whats wrong man
come on man hold it together man come on
I don't know why you crying over her anyway
be strong!

She gave me everything I wanted from the start
Her mind, body and heart
and I just knew the two of us would never ever part
I used to fart under the covers and she'd just laugh
she even cleaned my balls when we would take a bath
she straightened up the bed when I was still in it
get up and fix some breakfast
the kind of gal that makes you want to leave them other heffers alone
but my bone got a mind of its own
I continued to roam while she waited by the phone
loneliness got the best of her
she wanted to explore
her other options that she had, oh no my baby was no whore
just a woman with needs, a desire to be apreciated
I tried to keep her in the nest, warm and incubated
but my heart was steady gettin colder
coming home with not enough energy to even hold her
and then it happend
one bright early morn
I turned around to give my baby a hug and she was gone

[Chorus]
She was gone, Gone [x3]

Callin house to house
tryin to figure out
where could she be
she don't get up before me
and its damn near three
its pouring down outside, raining cats and frogs
I know pretty soon, she's coming back to the house
damn, 3:30, 4 o clock, five
called her at 6, something must be wrong with the ride
eyes wide, looking outside every ten minutes
not realizing the relationship been finished
12 pack, 8 cups of coughee, 2 cups of tea
hurry up and peepin out the curtain forgetting to pee
telephone ring (brring) hurry up pick it up
I thought I heard some body say
"boy, I got ya bitch, whats up"
but it wasn't
but I still almost hit the star 69 button
ready to cuss out whoever answered the phone
but I didnt call back, to face the fact that she was gone

[Chorus]
She was gone. Gone [x3]

Like a tucket through the comb
cant imagine another motherfucker makin her moan
got a call on my cell
it was her, what the hell
wonderin what kind of story you got to tell
she said, she left a note under the bed
"had to get up early be back to get a loaf of bread"

Shit, loaf of bread, why you ain't been call me
"I had a flat"
you had a flat
"yes, I had a flat"
you didnt have enough minutes on ya phone to call me
"its locked in the car"
oh...oh well shit, you left it in the car while you was on foot
"yes"
alrite fuck it... just come on home, I'm here man
"im on my way"
*phone hang up*

hello
hey baby its me, I took care of everything
oh yeh, he fell for that loaf of bread bullshit, didnt he?
as usual
huha I knew it. Look, forget about that nigga
you need to come over here right now
okay. I'm on my way

[Chorus]
She was gone. Gone. [x3]

[Devin the Dude]
Don't Go, No girl (don't go just yet baby)

I'm surprised you tried to compromise and not supply me with
The pleasure of touching you tenderly, at least a tit
Shit, a nipple or something, Just let me tickle it with my pinkie
And play with your, well you know, get my middle finger stankin'

[Girl:] Hey don't touch that
I was just kidding
but you was crunk at the club, now we're alone and you bullshittin
Kissin' all on my neck, squeezing all on my shit
You getting yourself all wet, simply for the funk of it
Why don't you get undressed, lay back, let me massage ya
I won't tell Timmy, if you won't tell Tosha
Everything should be Kosh-er, well you know kosher
Why let your lips hang, let 'em sing like they supposed to

(My name's Cecile)
Pass the sweet around and hush
Don't pull my third leg and I won't beat around your bush
I put 15 dollars in the tank to come and get ya
Now you ready to go and want me to wait til Wednesday to get with ya

[Chorus]
I got ta go
Where you got to go?
Don't go to soon
Where you got to go?

Another day wasted
Shoulda told you I couldn't make it
A nigga damn near masturbated
But I waited
I told myself that I would quit
Fuckin with ya, after I can tell all my friends that I hit
But now its Blue Ball Tuesday
I may be out but I'm not down
I hit the town, neighbors frown
Hearing my ultrasound
I couldn't hear my phone
But when I checked it, a message
Opened it up and read it
It was you, saying come get it
Hey, sure you ready?
I mean, you felt it before, you know its heavy
And hard; you have me 'bout to nut just thinking of you
Those titties, that ass, girl I think I love you

[Devin: talking on phone]
I'll be there about 10
What you got on?
You haven't been drinking have you?
Oh yeah, you want some more?
What? What do you mean somebody at the door?
Hello?

I gotta go
Why you gotta go?
Don't Go just yet baby

Her man came home soooooon
And then she saw him walk straight into the room
She was just on the phone luckily
Talking to a strong-boned nigga like me
I, detour to the left, mashed on the gas
Dick hard, hard times, I'm mad, gave the gas another smash
But fuck it, I'll get another chance
Cause tomorrow she's gonna borrow her mother's van
And that's a whole lot of room for the boom-shaka-laka
I've been spending time, thinking on how soon I can fuck her
But seems the bitch ain't gonna get no dick somewhat like Lassie
Cause her momma's takin the van to visit her Auntie in Tallahassee

I gotta go
Where you gotta go?
I gotta go
Baby don't go, don't go
I gotta go
Where you gotta go?

[Hook:]
I is working strong to perfect my skills
I can become somewhat of a better man
I will get my shit straighter everyday that I live (Cause)
I be concerned about unity for you and me

[Devin (singing):]
My talk is slightly different and my walk is not the same
I can't pronounce a couple words that's in the dictionary man
I know it's easier to call me names than to understand my nature
You and me might disagree but that don't mean I have to hate you
Take some time to talk to someone who has a totally different culture
You just might learn something new it ain't gonna hurt ya
To collaborate, combinate and ya'll can make the change
Instead of fighting each other cause your life is so plain
(Now he got his thang and you got yours
She got hers since the day she was born)
So we all got to get a long cause ain't nobody better than the next
No matter what race, color, creed, or sex
But you can better your self by listening to others
And what they got to offer treat them like sisters and brothers
Love them even though you disapprove sometimes
We all have faults I know I got mines
So

[Hook]

Ahh
Look at that tall ass man
Look at the little lady damn she must be from Japan
Well what's wrong with shaking her hand
A stranger just might be a friend u never met yet
Everybody ain't always out to get shit
If you don't like where they going then you don't have to follow them
Learn to trust your self and other people won't be a problem
We all have a purpose, no need to feel nervous
About your skeptics and do things cause you want to be accepted
(Now he got his thing and you got your
She got hers since the day she was born)
And its like that make the most out of the life you live
Every day's a blessing respect people and just try to give
Your best, it's a pest, Benefits you will get
If you would, just lay there negative to rest
I know a pest in a bothers some folks might be
And it might be you if you smoke like me
But see

[Hook x2]

[No lyrics]

[Devin]
Boog, weed, sess, skunk, pine, k, reefer, dank
Sell ya boy a plump dime
Killa, herb, grass, coffee, pot
We gotta get some mo' because this O is all we got
Smokin' everyday I can't let go
Rollin' perfect Sweets, I mean perfecto
Neighbours they say they smell this shit from next do'
And they keep me outa they house because they know I'ma fiend
Last month I pawned 17 sewing machines
Took the money to my Mexican patner his names Malito
(What's up wetback? [- ?spanish?]
We go way back, we'd lay back in his crib and get drunk
He always keeps some sess, but see sometimes he get's skunk
And he calls me when he get it, cus he know I'm wit it
And he tell me that's it's good but I'll believe it when I hit it
I'll show up with a cigar and then he bring out this bong
And before we get high we start singin' this song

[Hook]
Love the good motha
Muy bien marijuana
Love the good reefa
Cannabis sativa
Love the good motha
Muy bien marijuana
Love the good reefa
Cannabis sativa (cheeba cheeba)

Smokin' weed really ain't nothin' to brag about
Unless ya got friends like mine, look at this big bag I got
Straight from Jamaica from that nigga Naughty Dread
He got some shit with just one hit I bet yo' eyes get red
And he call his weed cali, smoke it in the chalis
"Take ya shoes off boy and try not to be careless"
We be jammin' to the reggae music feelin' every note
Both of our heads boppin' while we eatin' curried goat and he say
"Hey mon, pass dat motherfucka dis way mon"
I'm blowed, he blowed, we high
He got pounds of weed in the other room, knee high
And my nigga ain't greedy, he gives to the needy
He put me down with weed and I hook him up with beaties
We be trippin' off people who think weed makes you forget
But you was...uh..shit

[Hook]

Niggaz smokin' sweets, dimes, ounces to quarters
We pass the sess around in chronological order
But when ain't nobody got no weed shit seems to be hopeless
I know an old school weed smoker named Keofris
He always keep killa cus all he do is roll jokers
It's good for his cataracts and help him stay focused
He say him and a couple of his friends back in the game
They used to sing R & B the shoopdey doowop thing
They had bowl cuts they eyes tight lookin' like Chinamen
They had to switch up and change they name every now and then
Finally tried to be theyself but people wouldn't accept it
Shit started gettin' strange so they say fuck it and left it
He said, "Boy whatever ya do just keep goin'
If weed helps ya with the music keep the Sweets blowin'
One day you'll get some money, you can buy me some teeth
I wanna see ya make it boy, ya kinda remind me of me
Cus I love the reefer" Huh? What'd you say? "Cheeba cheeba"

[Hook x2: Overlaps last bar]

[Devin talking over hook]
Pops you out
Aw yeah, this for the, for the OG's who used to listen to The Ojays
Shit, hell this even for the BG's

[Devin sings hook in little Mexican voice til fade]

The briar patch
no don't throw me in the briar patch
you can cut off all my toes, but not the briar patch
you can fill me full of holes, but not the briar patch
Dont throw me in the briar patch
Dont throw me in the briar patch
Please don't put me in the briar patch
You can season and cook me, but not the briar patch
for me, no one would ever look off in the briar patch
Dont throw me in the briar patch
Dont throw me in the briar patch

I hop, I jump, I skip through the rubble
Yo, we ain't lookin for trouble
I's just tryin to get to the other end, I never been
maybe then I can tell my friends how it is, I been
searching for someone to help me, maybe you can
but its hard to tell you how I feel when you got a knife in ya hand
you can carve me
tie me up and starve me
put me on the grill, still nothing can harm me
like the briar patch
dont chunk me in
what kind of luck would I have then
wait a minute man, before you put me in it, use the gun
let you got a couple of bullets I'll be finished done
or hey, I can help you find a pot
help you build a fire, help you get it good and hot
well unless, you like to eat me cold
you can but oh no please don't throw me in

[Chorus]
the briar patch
no don't throw me in the briar patch
you can cut off all my toes, but not the briar patch
you can fill me full of holes, but not the briar patch
Dont throw me in the briar patch
Dont throw me in the briar patch
Please don't put me in the briar patch
You can season and cook me, but not the briar patch
for me, no one would ever look off in the briar patch
Dont throw me in the briar patch
Dont throw me in the briar patch
Dont throw me in

you's an ugly motherfucker, dog, I just call it like I see it
and your breath is like death, and if you don't like it so be it
I get mistreated by others if you cut above me your not
slice off my toes
if thats how it goes
I really don't give a fuck
if all of this belongs to you
do what you do, go head
but throw me in the briar's patch
and you'll never see so much red
I bled from Destin just tresspassing
cause I'm just askin for a favor
excuse my rude behavior
im just trying to savor the flavor of the fruit I just picked
and if you don't like it, you can suck my dick
but what you don't do
is throw me in the briar patch and then I'm through
come on man, can't we call a truce can we do somethin about it
before people end up crying and shoutin and poutin
man, come on man, that would really hurt our friendly church

[chorus]

[Devin]
Man I'm so high, I haven't landed yet
Don't know if I will, ever come down from this buzz that I feel
And I also got some kill yep, as if you didn't know
Nine times outa ten I'm ready, steady stayin' blowed
After unloadin' my shawties comin' back from QT
I fire up a doobie, you do you, I do me
There's people concerned about my health but they won't tell me
I don't even try to play it off, shit I know they smell me
(What is he on?) That's what they say when I leave
(What is he smokin' is you sho' it's just weed?)
I used to stay at the crib, seldom come out
'Cus they think my wealth and my health goes together somehow
I tried this, I tried that, I'm hooked on nuttin' but love
So it's hard to say "fuck what people thinkin' of"
I dip in, I dip out, I go here, I go there
And I'm steady gettin' blowed yeah

[Hook]
Smokin' weed, feelin' fine, steady gettin' blowed
Makin' niggaz understand and I'm lettin' these hoes know (Devin)
Don't keep steppin', steady stayin' on the scene
Doin' what I want to do
But some say that I'm takin' it to the X-treme

I'm higher, than a thumb tac on a flyer
Of Reeba Macintyre in the hood it's all good
It's understood by my niggaz and I figure they know
If they got a sweet and some heat
I got some weed and gon' blow
I toat across the nation, like a ten year vacation
My fuel tank is low but no I can't run outa patience
Gotta [Vocal Scratch] keep goin'
Let 'em know that I be steady gettin' blowed yeah

[Hook]

Man I'm so high. Who am I? Oh yeah, Devin
Cloud-10 was aight but I'm damn near at eleven
Feelin' fine, killin' time well, not exactly
I try to stay uplifted so that bullshit can pass me
Some niggaz think I'm soft, so they try to harass me
Some think I'm smart, some think I'm dumb, some think I'm trashy
Ask me who got that good-good shit I probably know
'Cus I'm steady gettin' blowed yeah

[Hook]

And I'm steady gettin' blowed... steady gettin' blowed

[Talking]
Gettin' high off whatever you get high off of
Get high off life
Matter fact, whatever your high may be
Get high to the extreme

And I'm steady gettin' blowed

You know why? ('Cus I'mon get high)

[Hook]
