Lyrics Joell Ortiz – Cold World
Text:
I got money on my hip
Man, this is a cold world
And the suckers want me dead
Damn, this is a cold world
And their eyes promise they won’t be too far
Man, ain’t this a cold world?
This is a shivering cold, freaky below
Listen, the nigga are frozen
But did you know
That it could explode?
Man you can get the hate
You can get the play
She shows her body nowhere to tell
Respect that you drop the weapon
Don’t try to hide it
Come off the rocks from your neck
You better watch it, you sexin’
We beat the opposite sex
This is how the story gets told
I got money on my hip
Man, this is a cold world
And the suckers want me dead
Damn, this is a cold world
Cause all I see is hate
And their eyes promise they won’t be too far
Man, ain’t this a cold world?
Live your life on the street
While you’re trying to eat
The dodge is dying to keep the ball
The shit I did
Don’t tell the person you were as a kid
I’m afraid a man could come
I’m just praying to my momma
The scenarios were playing in my head
All my pain is gone
Though it ain’t nothing to fear
But I feel like
I got money on my hip
Man, this is a cold world
And the suckers want me dead
Damn, this is a cold world
Cause all I see is hate
And their eyes promise they won’t be too far
Man, ain’t this a cold world?
