Kelis, Pusha T - Popular Thug lyrics

You know what I am you know what I do
Well at least I thought you knew
They call me Pusha! Damn

I take it like a slap in the face
Every time the base is mentioned
Like I had bad intentions
Listen, I thought love was given
So for you I did those
Things you were missin'
Never have to say "please gimme borrow"
As long as I got yay and two semi autos
And connects in the jets like wetback Carlos
I ain't askin' you to follow
Just think about tomorrow, please

I should have known by the
Way that you stared
Eyeing passers-by like you're rich
But life ain't fair but ya

Make my record skip make my record skip
Make my record skip make my record skip

I would have never talked to you if I
Had known you was a popular thug
Hey, popular thug (Ya damn right)
I would have never talked to you if I
Had known you was a popular thug
Hey, popular thug (Ya Damn right)

I can't help if I'm a thug and I'm popular
I think that come along with
Driving a shocking car
Watch the coke light up they life
The rocks is stars
Had fiends talking crippled cause
They locked they jaw aw, "Pusha T
You think it's cool that you deal?"
'Bout as cool as that breeze
On the beach in Brazil
As long as fiends want 'caine
Then I'm gon' slang
When my financial change then I'm gon' change

I should have seen in the
Way you touched my hand
Shuffling your car keys but
Sounded like a gentleman but ya

Make my record skip make my record skip
Make my record skip make my record skip

I would have never talked to you if I
Had known you was a popular thug
Hey, popular thug (Ya damn right)
I would have never talked to you if I
Had known you was a popular thug
Hey, popular thug (Ya Damn right)
I would have never talked to you if I
Had known you was a popular thug
Hey, popular thug (Ya damn right)
I would have never talked to you if I
Had known you was a popular thug
Hey, popular thug (Ya Damn right)

You don't know it yet
Its the life that I live that you
Love and the fact that I'm thug
That had you holding techs
When you really didn't know what it was
But you did it out of love
Shit, far from deprived give you
All of your fetishes
Like treacherous necklaces begets etceteras
Colours coming out make your
Head spin like Exorcist
Spending bright futures in the hood
All them no good messages

I should have heard it in the
Way you said my name
While I analyzed your tone
You were formulating games but ya

Make my record skip make my record skip
Make my record skip make my record skip

I would have never talked to you if I
Had known you was a popular thug
Hey, popular thug (Ya damn right)
I would have never talked to you if I
Had known you was a popular thug
Hey, popular thug (Ya Damn right)
I would have never talked to you if I
Had known you was a popular thug
Hey, popular thug (Ya damn right)
I would have never talked to you if I
Had known you was a popular thug
Hey, popular thug (Ya Damn right)

Hey, Popular thug
