Lyrics to Hoodwinked
I look just like my dad
I look just like my mother
They don't look like each other
They don't look at each other
Feel like Samson in broken homes
Holding pillars together
Last I saw was Delilah
She was running for cover
Aye!
Finger waves in her hair
Looking laid on her head
Got her laid on the bed
Hit record with my hand
Could premiere it in Cannes
Had to cut off some friends
They don't wanna invest
Moon walk down the steps
Moon walk when I get the advance
I just learned how to dance... Woo!
Who you vibe who gon' find you?
What you know about putting all your faith inside you?
What you know about giving handouts and getting slapped?
What you know about getting lied to in times two, haaa?
I said
Who in the way, do what it takes
I'm doing me and I'm doing it great
Cannot be nobody hero today
Cuz I wouldn't know what to do with a cape
Game without me like a shoe with no lace
Now you here tripping all over the place
Man all this fake in the air got me holding my
Got me holding my breath till I'm blue in the face
Blue in the face
Blue in the face
(Countin' my dollars long as they blue in the face)
Blue in the face
Hoodwinked
Hoodwinked
Hoodwinked
You pulled the wool over my eyes
Like surprise
Oh you tried
Don't hide away
Hoodwinked
Fuck yo inferior complex
Look in the mirror my contest
I do not marry the outcome
I fell in love with the process
Y'all know my city like Gotham
Even Batman crooked he robbing
Ms Apple bottom gon' drop it
Like she was changing the topic
Hmmm, middle of the party
Wave coming through
They like "Ouuu tsunami"
Hmmm, middle of the party
Wave coming through
They like "Ouuu tsunami"
That's how I'm feeling
Step in a building, command the attention
Not the intention
But if you don't like it, sign a petition
Cry me a river
I know somebody a listen
I know somebody been wishing and plotting on taking your spot in a minute
Ain't gotta pretend
Might light up a L then go for the dub
His mama said got a lotta potential
But ain't going nowhere
So him and his friends be lost like Gilliganman, I'm thinking they scared
Man, look at the box they fitting you in
It's killing his spirit again
Do what it takes
Do what it takes
I'm doing me and I'm doing it great
Step on the gas when I need a brake
Step on the gas when I need a brake
Who wanna race, moving my pace
I never worry 'bout who in the way
Man all this fake in the air got me holding my
Got me holding my breath till I'm blue in the face
Blue in the face
Blue in the face
(Countin' my dollars long as they blue in the face)
Blue in the face
Hoodwinked
Hoodwinked
Hoodwinked
You pull the wool over my eyes
Like surprise
Oh you tried
Don't hide away
Hoodwinked

They don't look like each other
They don't look at each other
