Lirik Lagu Evil

[Verse 1]
Woke up with an attitude today
Not in the mood to play (Nah)
Might start a feud with Dre (Yeah)
And ask him to shoot the fade (What it do?)
All I do is spray, spew the hate while I fuel the flames
Who to blame for my screwed-up brain?
You could say, in the booth, I’m A-human A-to-the-K (Aw)
(Hailie, look) Look at them two little beautiful (Yeah) pewter gray poodles, how cute are they? (The f-ck?)
Well, looks like them pooches are screwed today (I’m)
Stuck in my ruthless ways (Yep), and I refusе to change (Yep)
Nothin’ to lose or gain (Nopе), guess I just choose to stay

[Chorus]
Evil (Yeah), I’m so evil
Rotten to the core, a f-ckin’ twisted cerebral
I’m so evil, so evil
It’s obvious that I am not like other people
‘Cause I’m evil, I’m so evil
Rotten to the core, a f-ckin’ twisted cerebral
I’m so evil, so evil
It’s obvious that I am not like other people (Yeah)

[Verse 2]
My medicine cabinet’s big enough to fit a cab in it
Tablets, I split like half of this capsule, it’s travelin’ like a javelin
Through my abdomen, my stomach’s unravelin’
Might end up havin’ Slim say some sh-t you feel f-cked up for laughin’ at, yeah
And I’m phenomenal at it (What?), and that’s problematic (What?)
But if y’all fanatics (Huh?), maybe I’m your habit (Yeah)
And I got all the dope (What?) too, send me all them addicts (Get ’em all)
And watch me shoot ’em up (Pew-pew) like semi-automatics (Come on)
Slim snaps like a chin-strap
Had my share of lows, yeah, now I’m the exact (What?)
Opposite, just like a prostitute when she’s gettin’ smacked (Now)
Pimp slaps, only way I’m hittin’ my bottom, b-tch (Yeah, take ’em back)
I was five when they tried to say I stuck a live grenade
Up inside of a microwave, I behave like a child, ayy
Even when stakes are high as the price of an angus, I filet
By the way, I think I just gave Skylar Gray Hepatitis A (Ew)
But when it’s sink-or-swim, I just say, “It’s not me, it’s him” (Sorry)
There’s a demon who’s deep within
All I need is MD, or weed, or Henny, or Jim Beam, or Remy, or Seagram’s Gin
Just to get underneath your skin, I would like you to meet my twin

[Chorus]
Evil, I’m so evil
Rotten to the core, a f-ckin’ twisted cerebral
I’m so evil, so evil
It’s obvious that I am not like other people
‘Cause I’m evil, I’m so evil
Rotten to the core, a f-ckin’ twisted cerebral
I’m so evil, so evil
It’s obvious that I am not like other people (Look it up, yeah)

[Verse 3]
Holy sh-t, Cait’ Jenner just flipped (Yo)
Told me knock this sh-t off and quit, and get off her d-ck (Damn)
And I’ve had a bad day, I just slapped Dre
Do not tell me what I can’t say (Why?), that’s g-y (What’s wrong with that?)
And not the good kind of g-y either (What?)
Where two men f-ck each other and hate beaver (Woah)
What the f-ck? Wait, we’ve established I’m straight, see, the (No)
Way they try to make me the devil, the atheist (Oh)
Sh-t can get a lot worse, these are my first thoughts, Johnny Walker, this my third shot (Yeah)
And I don’t stop ’til the shots heard, pops for blocks, got the Mossberg cocked (What?)
Couple choppers, two Glocks, a 2Pac shirt, doctors, and boxers dropped
Lookin’ awkward as I walk into Oxford (Stop, the f-ck?)
So much ammunition, I sweat lead
And just bought you a new bedspread for your deathbed (Haha)
And I just got it made like Special Ed said
Word to Redman, I’m a meth-head
Used to get fed pet meds by my redneck stepdad
‘Til I beat his as- to death with a cassette deck (Ah)
So much bloodshed that when he bled from his head gash (Yeah)
It’s kinda like I’m a bookworm (Huh?)
‘Cause I ain’t stoppin’ ’til everything gets read
Call this sex ed with a splash of necrophilia (What?)
‘Cause when I say that I’m really the evilest, I’m f-ckin’ deadas- (I’m f-ckin’ deadas-, haha)
Maybe what I need now more than likely’s a psych eval’
Mama, how do you like me now? (Huh?)
Are you proud of me yet, Debbie? (Huh?) I done turned my whole life around
But I think I’m just like you now because I turned out so f-ckin’

[Chorus]
Evil, I’m so evil
Rotten to the core, a f-ckin’ twisted cerebral
I’m so evil, so evil
It’s obvious that I am not like other people
‘Cause I’m evil, I’m so evil
Rotten to the core, a f-ckin’ twisted cerebral
I’m so evil, so evil
It’s obvious that I am not like other people
