Maze Of My Mind
Dee.Age Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Tossed to the wolves, end up leading the pack
Thought I end up dead, from all the knives I took to the back
Shout out my mom, tough love and showing me strength
Whenever life gave me lemons, I lemonade that shit
Everyday I thank God, allowing me to wake up
Used to my moments when I almost gave up
Use to think to myself nigga what you gon do with your life
If it wasn't for Aaliyah I'd never do right
No matter what was thrown my way I always survived
Always had a natural hunger, always known how to strive
Had my share of pain, had my share of shame
I've been through the rain
Took L's playing life's game
They wanna walk in your shoes but ain't sizing the same
If they lived through the pain that was stamped in my brain
I'd give it a second before they break and go insane
No games, I ain't playin
Yall start assuming and tellin them lies
Let me break you off a piece of my mind
I got time, all the time in the world
Once you stepped in my world
Learn my anger is too hard to confine
Deep inside lie a man in the dark with a one track mind
Tunnel vision, focused on mine
Yes mine, only mine
Haters gon hate just don't give em my time
They don't know I got a dangerous mind
In this mind of mine
Sometimes I rather be the villain than the hero
Don't like it? Count my fucks starting with zero
I don't have nothing to prove
I have too much to lose
Whats understood don't need to be explained
Even if we ain't cool, I could never hate you
We are not the same fool
Stranger in my mind, I don't even claim you
Got family that I don't claim too
Blood ain't shit I'll still cut the chain too
You only get one shot when you fuckin with Dee
You play the Judas, fuck that smooth shit
You done fucked up with me
Trustin people really bothers me
Cause when that trust is broke then they gonna see
Evil pouring out of me
Unleash the anger, they're in danger
Malicious prodigy
No heart inside of me
My world now, once you stepped in the mind of Dee
Yall start assuming and tellin them lies
Let me break you off a piece of my mind
I got time, all the time in the world
Once you stepped in my world
Learn my anger is too hard to confine
Deep inside lie a man in the dark with a one track mind
Tunnel vision, focused on mine
Yes mine, only mine
Haters gon hate just don't give em my time
They don't know I got a dangerous mind
In this mind of mine
In this mind of mine
Everytime I tried love, it was merely a phase
I learned to stop chasing bitches that don't wanna be chased
Never been good with my feelings that's the hard part
Whenever I go to use em I always seem to fail hard
Failed expectations, guess I gained a cold heart
Lives hit me hard, so hard I felt it
Turned me mean and reckless
So vain I wear my pride like a muthafuckin necklace
Now check this
A few folks are on my checklist
I wanna leave helpless
A paw to the jaw just to leave them breathless
Give em rope for their necks
Fuck shit I know that's reckless, shit I can't help it
Can't be a saint in a world full of sinners
They feed on a good heart
That shit to them like dinner
Don't breathe life into dead situations, it'll consume you
Either grab the fiskars, or stick to the shit like Elmers school glue
Yall start assuming and tellin them lies
Let me break you off a piece of my mind
I got time, all the time in the world
Once you stepped in my world
Learn my anger is too hard to confine
Deep inside lie a man in the dark with a one track mind
Tunnel vision, focused on mine
Yes mine, only mine
Haters gon hate just don't give em my time




They don't know I got a dangerous mind
In this mind of mine
