Digital Tears

Lyrics

[Intro: Sample] "Eyes with TV cameras. Also, it has automatic evasion devices, so it'll always get out of your way" "Hahaha, hope so" "But as far as I'm concerned, it's got right of way" "Hahaha" [Hook: Superstar Jet Jaguar (AKA GM Grimm/MF Grimm)] We had a Fortune For all my peers, like a robot, I cry Digital tears We did not know no better We thought we'd live forever And all the women loved us And bullets did not touch us Oh no, we had a Fortune For all my peers, like a robot, I cry Digital tears It can happen to you To all you nonbelievers Just pick up the magazine Fell in the Don Diva [Verse 1: Superstar Jet Jaguar (AKA GM Grimm/MF Grimm)] Machiavelli said you'd better treat fortune like it's your woman Don't abuse her—if you do, there's nothing like a woman scorned. She'll Pull you down like gravity, break you up, though mentally Sleep with your friends, those you don't know, and also enemies Anyone to incite jealously, make you wish you had her It doesn't matter. She'll crush your dreams—as you sleep, they shatter So you gotta be strong, man, 'cause sometimes shit go wrong, man Your money just ain't long, man, like it was before Retreat—no shame in it, soldier, the art of war Regroup—God gave you talent, so use your brain Maintain, get back on comfortable terrain Rebuild legit, you don't have to sell cocaine or Heroin. Many have done it, but now they're gone. I'll speak Of dons, kings of the street but died as pawns. For what? Most dead, crippled now, locked down for twenty-three in a cell Miserable as hell 'cause we destroyed our families chasing Fortune. She know how to pimp a pimp—it's simple Convince him to write his name in lights on side of blimps We sold drugs, caught bodies, laid 'em down with guns Secret indictments, life sentences, government know everything we done. Now Only I will get to feel the Sun, never again we feel the Moon Fighting inside, try to free our minds, try to break out this cocoon It's contradictory 'cause we're all slaves, our soul is on ice. Still We burn in the fire and desire paradise We're only human, we made mistakes, no one on the planet's perfect But analyze the situation—that shit was not worth it We lost time, lost our minds, even lost our girls Reminiscing, sitting in jail, thinking about days sitting on top of the world [Hook: Superstar Jet Jaguar (AKA GM Grimm/MF Grimm)] We had a Fortune For all my peers, like a robot, I cry Digital tears We did not know no better We thought we'd live forever And all the women loved us And bullets did not touch us Oh no, we had a Fortune For all my peers, like a robot, I cry Digital tears It can happen to you To all you nonbelievers Just pick up the magazine Fell in the Don Diva [Verse 2: Superstar Jet Jaguar (AKA GM Grimm/MF Grimm)] Never break the code, don't run your mouth, never name names, never tell dames Your business, watch who you call a friend 'cause, in back, shoot you in the end Testify, say you the one, the mastermind, kingpin You pulled triggers, arranged hits, distributed bricks, did all this shit Feds seize cars, keys, house, jewelry, freeze accounts These amounts get used against ya. On defense, your lawyer's tense He states, "Repent, just take the plea Escape death penalty." Get L-I-F-E chasing Fortune. She know how to pimp a pimp—it's simple Convince him to write his name in lights on side of blimps. Even Clowns bloodthirsty in this carnival of carnivores Con the sacred. Scars & Memoirs, past wars, Feds Watch and know everything about our covert culture, so I asked "Is it beneficial or possible to play dead for a hawking vulture?" Negative Bluff all you want. Ahead of the game, the vulture eats ya. Irrelevant You're easy prey, so either way, the vulture beats ya. Ring- -master is the Feds in this carnival of carnivores Let you think you're someone, but then crack the whip. Jump the weeping fire Or the high-wire. You're going haywire. They say, "Hey, nigga, you's a liar So cooperate with the United States of America and just wear this wire" No shade. Demands made, you got played, Uncle Sam tied Both hands together behind your back, told you, "Juggle these hand grenades." You had it All. "You was a baller—that's the price to pay," and in Your head it stays [Hook: Superstar Jet Jaguar (AKA GM Grimm/MF Grimm)] (x2) We had a Fortune For all my peers, like a robot, I cry Digital tears We did not know no better We thought we'd live forever And all the women loved us And bullets did not touch us Oh no, we had a Fortune For all my peers, like a robot, I cry Digital tears It can happen to you To all you nonbelievers Just pick up the magazine Fell in the Don Diva
