Priddy Ugly Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I put a spotlight on life so all I shadow is death
You can never judge a horse by the saddle it gets
And the water stay dripping while your paddle is wet
There's a lesson to be learned in how you handle regret
Fight the root of all evil as you battle your debt
You can never judge creation by the damage it vents
You get treated how you give it, you should havе some respect
You get landmines, avoid any hazardous steps
Failure to fly as it's simple as a pass of the jet
And, and smoking every beat is just a habit, I guess
I come alive in the stu', I'm probably labbing to death
I want success but that don't mean I'm lavish obsessed
Do you free, or sell the fish you catch in the net?
You can think with your heart but cannot plan with your chest
(You can think with your heart but cannot plan with your chest)
