[01:29.34] We used to fight for building blocks

[01:31.58] Now we fight for blocks with buildings that make a killing

[01:34.08] The closest of friends when we first started

[01:36.59] But grew apart as the money grew, and soon grew black-hearted

[01:40.09] Thinking back when we first learned to use rubbers

[01:42.59] He never learned so in turn I'm kidnapping his baby's mother

[01:46.58] My hand around her collar, feeding her cheese

[01:49.10] She said the taste of dollars was shitty so I fed her fifties

[01:52.09] About his whereabouts I wasn't convinced

[01:54.34] So I kept feeding her money 'til her shit started to make sense

[01:57.85] Who could ever forsee, we used to stay up all night at slumber parties

[02:01.84] Now I'm trying to rock this bitch to sleep

[02:03.59] All the years we were real close

[02:05.34] Now I see his fears through her tears, know she's wishing we were still close

[02:07.34] Don't cry, it is to be

[02:10.84] In time, I'll take away your miseries and make 'em mine, D'Evils...

[02:45.33] You don't know me, but the whole world owe me

[02:47.34] Strip!

[02:48.59] Was thought to be a pleasant guy all my fucking life

[02:51.09] So now I'm down for whatever, ain't nothing nice

[02:54.09] Throughout my junior high years it was all friendly

[02:56.58] But now this higher learning got the Remy in me

[02:58.84] Liquors invaded my kidneys

[03:00.59] Got me ready to lick off, mama forgive me

[03:03.59] I can't be held accountable, D'Evils beating me down, boo

[03:09.59] Come test me, I never cower

[03:11.84] For the love of money, son, I'm giving lead showers

[03:14.84] Stop screaming, you know the demon said it's best to die

[03:17.84] And even if Jehovah witness, bet he'll never testify, D'Evils...

[03:22.34] Dear God, I wonder can you save me?
