Lyrics Newer Level - P-Tree

Crime it can get you what you want
Crime it can get you what you want
Crime it can get you what you want
You can't come taking what's mine but I'm taking what you bought
Play it smart cause the crime pays but it can take it all
Bullets spraying out that iron let it stick to them like darts

P-Tree's deep from the heart
Melodies and speaking art
Seventies drums to take apart
Selling these hums
Till I reach something
I'll just keep running
Getting far
Not easy to start
But even harder to get me to stop
Got weakened armor then pray to God
I'll leave and you won't
It's as easy as that
I'm taking your phone
Your keys and your hat
I'm hitting home
On Apple Maps
Then use your Face ID to find your home
Where I take the rest then I

Find your stash
Burn ya pad and leave you assed out
Damn I want it bad
Earned in in fact
Piled up I'm not gentle
Hell I've been through
On a new level
Cause the crime pays for my essentials

I don't want to want
And I don't want to wait for what I want
Don't want a bottle a day
Don't want to worry bout pay
Just want to make great stuff
Or even not so great
But what I got to do today
To get myself a bouquet
Filling up my suitcase
Can't forget my toothpaste
Or my lucky shoelace
I used as a belt for to many days
My new intentions melt my old foolish ways
The truth is that all of the lies that build the tension up
Should've been the truth in the first place
That's the reason that you've had worse days
And that's the reason people fuck other inmates
So as you reap what does that indicate
The lack of love will reciprocate

I am no socket
I am the extension of power
Stripping these plugs I've got plenty of outlets
I fit the pockets and weigh my options meticulously
Intensively seeking intent
Retention of bad intentions lead to recession
Plenty weapons death round the corner no lessons learned
Testing again why so eager wait your turn
Bridges burn way to quickly
Miss me the fake praise
Strange ways you demons try to sit with me
Let it resonate reason with me
Am I to blame for everything you take and hold onto to dearly
Oh but fuck how I'm feeling
Meditate I levitate and break ceilings
Medicate celebrate the day I'm still living
May we wake to see another my children
Please save us lord willing

Ain't much of a place for us to be
But we still in deep
Where we've grown feelings
Hate to see it but the rough real
Nothing free
We just seen some more killings
Angered by it anchored in it easy
Reasons stacking up why I'm depressed
Daily feeling like a fucked deal on me
But everybody got their own mess
Everybody got opinions
Till you hit the point where you got no decisions
It's pointless to balance improper conditions
At least it can feel like it is
Like why should I go give the doctor a visit
When I got no meat in my fridge
I guess I'll be hitting a lick

Crime it can get you what you want
Crime it can get you what you want
Crime it can get you what you want
You can't come taking what's mine but I'm taking what you bought
Play it smart cause the crime pays but it can take it all
Better focus on a higher way to break your fall
Better focus on a crime it can get you what you want
Crime it can get you what you want
