I heard that payback's a mother fuckin' bitch
But i won't stress and i won't switch
And i would not take my life
Glory please my god the only thing on my mind
Takes up all of my time
And i said ooh!
Running from a gun
Or some brain that ways a ton
And my god it hurts to get so low
Searchin' through the cars
Cold still searchin' through the night
I think i will run to you but i refuse to fuss and fight

And god may find a reason
Well i'm sure you'll find a rhyme
Because it takes up nearly all my time
He who stands for freedom
God knows i've got the number
But maybe i just use too much

I was sitting in that bar
Now i'm sittin' in that stolen car
Cold, still rollin' down the boulevard
Saw you with a gleam
And the microphone scene
Think i will run, to you
But i know i won't live for me
Cause i know god's got both, the reason and the rhyme
Please tell me, why he takes up all my time
I've been drinking, just like you
And baby, you've got something i can use

Payback's a mother fuckin' blast
But i won't stress and i won't blast
And i would not take my life
Glory please, my god, comin' from heaven above
Takes up all of my time
And i said

(why must i feel like that?)

Running from a gun
And some brain that ways a ton
You know, i did that line for flava' flave

But, all the d.j.'s do it
All the d.j.'s use it
I would run, i would switch
But i wanna be the same
And i know i'll find a reason
'cause i always bust a rhyme
Because it takes up nearly all my time
The "t" hear stands for treason
The "d" hear stands for dove
And maybe i just use too,
Maybe i'm just used too much
And maybe i just use too much.
