Artist: Crooked I f/ Sally Anthony Album: Million Dollar $tory (The EP) Song: Villain Typed by: Nickolye16@aol.com [Intro: Crooked I] There comes a time, in everybody's life when they gotta make a change I'm tired of bein a villain I'ma change [Chorus: Sally Anthony] I'm not gon' be, your, villain, an-y-more And don't think I'll live, a, life, of, keep-ing score I'm not gon' be, your, villain, an-y-more And don't think I'll live, a, life, of, keep-ing score I'm not gon' be [Crooked I] Flat broke, livin in the hood When I need money I'll be up to no good Your family's rich, my family's poor I would trade places wit'chu if I could But I gotta play with the cards I was dealt Down on my knees, ask God for some help Man of the house, my dad walked out Mistakes get made when you father yourself I was raised on the block, a menace to society But as a little kid I was innocent entirely Time went by, life got hard 'Til I start feelin like a villain was inside of me Mad at the world, but I can't cry Heart full of pain, when I can't lie I did a lot of dirt, but now I wanna change To the bad guy in me I say bye (bye, bye) [Chorus] [Crooked I - over Chorus] I don't wanna be the villain no more (AY! AY!) No more [Crooked I] I don't wanna be the villain no more Inside my mind fightin my own war Half of me wants to be the good guy but the other half wants to kick down yo' door Mixed emotions, they start to confuse me Last night I hopped in my car with an uzi Haters don't feel me, some wanna kill me I don't really wanna be the star of this movie Too many years I done fought off regret I'ma +Bale+ like Christian and walk off the set You could tell the director, and the producer to that keep noose when it fall off my neck I was hangin myself, I couldn't breathe Trapped in the ghetto, I couldn't leave I couldn't think, I couldn't see I couldn't take it, man I couldn't be Guess I thought it was nothin else out there for a drop-out raised on welfare Brave enough to rob a bank in a heartbeat But too scared to take my life elsewhere It ain't easy, to go straight Blind faith, step to the plate I packed up my bag, I walked out the door I ain't comin back around this bitch 'til I'm great (great, great) [Chorus] [Crooked I - over Chorus] I don't wanna be the villain no more (AY! AY!) No more I don't wanna be the villain no more No more [Crooked I] Put your hands in the air if you feel me I'ma change my life if it kill me Put your hands in the air if you feel me I'ma change my life if it kill me Put your hands in the air if you feel me I'ma change my life if it kill me Put your hands in the air if you feel me I don't wanna be, I don't wanna be [Outro: Sally Anthony] I'm not gon' be, your, villain, an-y-more And don't think I'll live, a, life, of, keep-ing score I'm not gon' be {*echoes*} [Crooked I] No more
