Song: No Surprises
Typed by: Andy Lee
[Chorus]
No such thing as surprises for me, I seen too many
Learn from incidents in ya life because there's plenty
Pick up every little piece of knowledge, every damn penny
No one said surprises would hit ya heart gently
Surprises don't exist for me, I seen too many
Learn from incidents in ya life because there's plenty
Pick up every little piece of knowledge, every damn penny
No one said surprises would hit ya heart gently
[Verse One]
Yaull got areas in ya life where you got soft spots
Cuz of suprises you encountered and seen uncovered
I seen a lover hover over another mans lips
Fully equipped, I bet she went all out on his dick
Now about this kid, she gots to vow to quit
If her man ever finds out, no doubt he'll trip
Possibly load a clip and explode the dudes hip
Pops was almost homeless and left me, I wasn't ready
Not knowin' I was growin' hopeless, it was close to bogus
Supposed to be a real man, viewed him as atrocious
Mom I never knew that he had a wife before you
You only married him cuz you felt sorry, I ignore feuds
I caught the most innocent on the block smokin' some pot
When I saw the pipe touch they mouth, my jaw dropped
Every small spot on my heart got robbed and popped
When I heard my homie got locked, fuck the cops
[Chorus]
[Verse Two]
I never seen a hurt thug till I lost my first love
Heart got hit with cursed slugs, thats the worst stuff
The cost was too big to bare, I was gettin' scared
Unfair, felt like a victim and thought nobody cared
Seen a shy girl become a hoe, life hit the drain
Seen a fly girl runaway from home, life's a game
Thought I would never get jacked till my cheddar got stacked
Thought I was better than that, excellin' in raps
My own cousin was cracked up, till he got back up
Pac got shot in 96 cuz beef with Big ripped
I wish each clip would have missed, but yo thats the gift
Realized it costed a lot to see my sins on the cross
The God dropped science on me, thank you Boss
My closest road dogs left as I grew older, what a mess
Imma soldier, I grew bolder through the view of this test
Mos def I got mad confidence, screamin' "who the best?"
[Chorus]
[Verse Three]
I was at school when I heard Mac drowned in a pool
Kids cried in the hallways, she died but we love her always
Granny's beautiful, hope she's standin' in a mansion
Never abandoned her kids during the war, outstandin'
I hope she in heaven dancin' with angels, not phantoms
Jason Oh died of cancer, a giant teddy bear
You just left and we already scared, you always cared
Nice kid, goofy, loveable, you fought the struggle
Funny, friendly, loved ya life, you untouchable
Never complained about ya illness, to me thats real kid
You kept it the realest and I hope cats'll feel this
Ya parents were the nicest, their love for you was priceless
They didn't deserve this, they need somethin' more perfect
Homies lives are nervous, now that you gone, they feel worthless
Your letters made us bawl, it was hard all in all
It was wrong to say goodbye, but the song made us cry
[Chorus]
I don't get surprised no more, shit is real
