Dave East - Devil Eyes Lyrics
Official




Ay cuz, next nigga to disrespect will not be tolerated in the Dirt nigga
That's how you end up on a shirt, cuz
That's on 39th Street, nigga
Stay away from rats
F*ck a nigga mean, cuz, Dirt Gang

Before you shoot 'em, look 'em in his eyes
Introduce him to God, they ain't got shit to do with mines (amen)
Shit get real nasty, gotta move your mom
It was either become a body or go do some time
I knew a couple niggas, all they knew was crime (that's it)
Tryna disrespect the set is where we drew the line
Get killed, ask him what time it was when you knew the time
If Chet found a gun in the crib, he already knew it's mine (on God)
The President don't give a f*ck about the country (at all)
Them child support payments been f*ckin' up your monthly (damn)
It was hard to think in class knowin' you was hungry (starve)
Them bitches said you was trash just 'cause you was bummy
Chip on my shoulder, I felt a way about it
Opps caught me dolo, thought they had me, found my way up out it
You in the field, gotta walk through the streets, ain't no way around it
His mama lost her mind, she couldn't believe the way they found him

All through the ghetto we would terrorize
His closest nigga died, he ain't lettin' it slide (uh uh)
He pray to God but he been lookin' through the Devil eyes
He got his mask on so nobody could recognize (nobody)
I could paint a picture like I'm Basquiat (I can)
Every other day another body drop
Ain't nowhere to run if they surround the block (nowhere)
We up with the sun, trap around the clock

How to get down
All the niggas that got on before him taught him how to get down
Specialize in scorin', crack your crinown
Ridin' around in them foreigns, havin' they L out
Gotta make sure you covered up like a blanket or you gonna get covered up with a blanket
Can't be no fruitcake, you can't be no Edible Arrangement
Comin' up outta the region where we at (where we at)
Gotta be a lion, not a cat (not a cat)
They don't wanna listen, don't wanna learn (don't wanna learn)
They parents on yolo, they not concerned (they not concerned)
The cha cha, the cola, money I earned (money I earned)
The bakin', the soda, I flipped and turned
They might not thought I paid attention but I was listenin' (I was listenin')
My master bedroom bigger than the house I grew up in (grew up in)
Me, my bloods, my cousins, and my siblings (and my sibilings)
I don't trust nobody, I ain't got no friends (I ain't got no friends, beeotch)

All through the ghetto we would terrorize
His closest nigga died, he ain't lettin' it slide (uh uh)
He pray to God but he been lookin' through the Devil eyes
He got his mask on so nobody could recognize (nobody)
I could paint a picture like I'm Basquiat (I can)
Every other day another body drop
Ain't nowhere to run if they surround the block
We up with the sun, trap around the clock

Uh, FaceTime the snakey just to show the Drakey
You ever stripped a nigga naked off a naked lady?
Several cases on the gravel where they tackled dude
Eukanuba for the shooters, that's a bag of food
Ask his mama why he left, them niggas had to move
We hoppin' out, half of moons on a half a broom
Passes ain't permitted, ain't no passin' through
Unless you niggas tryna cop a Pacquiao or two
Run a demonstration for initiation
Suck a quarter for the litigated situation
Niggas show up at your mama's, know no limitation
When we was into stealin' foreigns, you was into stealin' bases
You niggas was ditchin' class, we was ditchin' agents
Big bro 'posed to be proud his little nigga made it
It's written on they faces, I could feel the hatred
F*ck the money, it get gully, nigga still a gangsta

All through the ghetto we would terrorize
His closest nigga died, he ain't lettin' it slide
He pray to God but he been lookin' through the Devil eyes
He got his mask on so nobody could recognize
I could paint a picture like I'm Basquiat
Every other day another body drop
Ain't nowhere to run if they surround the block
We up with the sun, trap around the clock
All through the ghetto we would terrorize
His closest nigga died, he ain't lettin' it slide
He pray to God but he been lookin' through the Devil eyes
He got his mask on so nobody could recognize
I could paint a picture like I'm Basquiat
Every other day another body drop
Ain't nowhere to run if they surround the block
We up with the sun, trap around the clock

Talk about the streets, talk about the struggle man
Yo listen man
Um, the streets, man, listen man, you gotta survive, you gotta learn how to hit every angle
Nah mean, in every different aspect and situation
You know what I'm sayin'?
My life in the streets, man, I'm a drug addict, I smoke crack cocaine
My name is, I was born and raised in 4015
12th Street, apartment 6B
My mother got life in prison for smoking crack
Unfortunately, I have become, or I just, you know, I lessened myself to smoke crack
Because, you know, I just wanted to smoke crack, be a bum
You know, I felt like that was cool, I don't know what I, what I was attracted to
But, I mean, I don't know
But, um, in the streets though you just gotta get it, man, you just gotta get it, man
Listen, money is cool, but you know, relationships is better
Man, I mean, I don't know, I steal from stores, man
I mean, I, I, I f*ckin', I don't know man
I just try, I just try man
