Mr. Evil Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
They love us, we hate the cops
I'm coming off of the top
Don't care if I own it, I'll die for my block
I just want me some respect
If not, that red beam up at his neck
I just took off my connect
'Cause his bitch in the back, tryna give me neck, ahh
I'm moving that white shit straight from the 80's
Won't appear no where if them niggas won't pay me
I scream fuck the system but hope they don't hang me
I'm moving base like I'm signed to the Yankees
Oh, I mean the Marlins, I'm in Miami
Feds on my block then I turnt into Danny
Phantom, my bitch got the crack in her fanny
Pull up in a Ghost but slide in a Camry, damn
The feds 'bouta look up
I don't know shit about a nigga who took sum
Why the feds on my ass tryna book sum
'Bout my past, they know that I shook sum
Got the white for the low like Betty
Up that drake at his face if he fuck with my fetty
Hit his meatball we 'gone see his spaghetti
In other words, we 'gone get up and get ready
'Cause we gonna shake the block
They love us, we hate the cops
I'm coming off of the top
Don't care if I own it, I'll die for my block
I just want me some respect
If not, that red beam up at his neck
I just took off my connect
'Cause his bitch in the back, tryna give me neck, ahh
