[00:00.0]Never Crossed My Mind - Skee-Lo
[00:20.87]I used to think that I was hard
[00:22.43]The kind of kid you don't wanna mess wit'
[00:24.31]I'll fight you and your bodyguard
[00:25.3]I was illeterate we're talkin' gibberish
[00:27.11]But never considerate of the way I treated friends
[00:29.79]I would fight ten kids and I would fly all heads
[00:32.17]I would even fight dragons 'til they'd be dead
[00:34.47]I would presidents and the mayor you bet
[00:36.91]But it's just too bad because I ain't fought yet
[00:39.52]You see I took a slug at no one
[00:41.65]But if I ever did I'll have to show one
[00:43.6]That I was like able to wreck it
[00:45.34]I thought I knew but I didn't know
[00:47.23]That all the talk in the world doesn't make you a pro
[00:50.29]And so 'cause my first real fight in the hood
[00:52.73]I would bash a skull if I could
[00:54.66]But that's when these kids wrecked my world swept my feet up
[00:57.4]Straight got illed and I was nearly killed
[00:59.53]It never crossed my mind
[01:00.53]I could go ten different places at one time (all at one time)
[01:03.34]I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind (walk through my mind)
[01:20.61]I never thought that it could happen to you
[01:22.36]I never thought that it could happen to me
[01:24.05]But then it happend see
[01:25.229996]Coolin' out chillin' with my homeboy Paul
[01:27.479996]Now we was chillin' talkin' to ladies up inside of the mall
[01:30.03]I got a few numbers and some girl's address
[01:32.29]So I was feelin' kinda fly and I was dressed real fresh
[01:35.15]We was coolin' as if we didn't care
[01:36.9]He was too busy talkin' and so he wasn't aware
[01:39.43]That's when he caught a slug to his chest
[01:41.67]A hole in his vest worst of all he made a mess all over the carpet
[01:44.79]Started to tumble all over the place
[01:46.729996]'Cause a bullet has no name it sees no face
[01:49.41]Anyways this girl pulled a trigger on us
[01:51.97]She was tryin' to kill the man who's next to the man
[01:54.4]Who's next to the man what
[01:55.47]And that's all he gots to give
[01:57.15]He's ready to die but I'm hopin' he lives
[01:59.520004]It never crossed his mind
[02:20.48]For my groupies why must you do me
[02:22.11]You never knew me so what makes you hot for me
[02:24.47]Is it fortune and fame just because of my name
[02:26.97]You wanna tell your friends that you did it Skee
[02:29.53]See we can't be because there is no us
[02:31.95999]You and I won't happen so don't make no fuss
[02:34.58]Now we could persist with a hug and a kiss
[02:37.2]But I can't help but wonder "who's daughter is this "
[02:39.64]I'm glad you respect me now let me respect you
[02:42.32]If I was a dog then I might want you
[02:44.57]But if you want it that bad then baby don't get mad
