Mia X - Hoodlum Poetry lyrics

I came to this country with my mama
Everybody called her the white girl
But, you all knew I had a
Lil' somethin' somethin' on me
Cause my outer was slightly tanned
Southern folk called me a yellow gal
I've been out here in this
World for a while now
Bringing madness and mayhem to man, woman
And child you see my mother
The white girl had several lovers
So my father's true identity has
Yet to be discovered
Some call it A-1 soda others V-12
Doctor Tishner has been implicated
But all of their seeds
Are incriminating evidence
As far as my perception goes
My mother, she was indeed good
But I was most powerful
Just ask anybody in your hood


You can even ask those in
Corporate America about this mobstress
Most times, I as little as a pea
Though my weight fluctuates size ain't shit
Cause, I have enough game to make
You steal from ya mama
And call her out by her name
I can make her neglect her
Children, sale her body
Perform dirty tricks on her knees and be
Called the neighborhood hottie
Everybody's a thief and a liar
Once they make my acquaintance
They be anxious to buy my love
They lust for me
Want to hold me and test my purity
But it's only for a moment
You see the ecstasy that I give to you
It's only temporary but quite costly
I'm bossy from your very
First encounter with me
I tell you, you need me, gots to have me
Can't live without me
The pea, my game extends, it gets deeper
You see my skills don't pimp
Just the weak minded
The so-called big ballin' brothers
Are obsessed with me they kill, rob
And plot on one another to possess me
They see me as a goddess
The financial path that will lead
Them out the ghetto
But don't they know, have a clue
That I and my mother were
Sent here to destroy them
To entice, baffle, and trap them
Conscious people call the conspiracy genocide
Well, what do you think
I mean you make money off me
While they pile up evidence on you
Then get you to spend all
The money you're stackin'
On lawyers and bail bondsmen
They seize your property and worldly items
That have you caught up in this lifestyle
Material things that turn friends to foes
Woman to hoe, man to monster
Yeah, nigga you've changed but so what
Cause, I give you what you
Need I give you power
Make you feel invincible right by me
I make you feel like a big man, timer
No matter how fat, ugly, illiterate you are
I make the prettiest women love you
Fight over you and compete with others
Trying to give you babies
I make your relative, want to kiss your ass
Treat you like a king and
Roll out the red carpet
They've got one hand out for money
And the other hand has a pen in it
So you can sign your life policy
My assistance makes you have that
Edge over the next man
Cause it's all about me and money
The root of all evil
The necessities of function in this society
I make all your gangsta
Dumbass stories interesting
Cause you are the man
I mean we listen in awe as
You speak of your murder tales
Ménage a trios, homosexual advances
And secret romances
I'm bout it and I make you
Feel bout it bout it
I split family, split friends
Split lovers and even business partners
So niggas nickname me crack
Ain't that something
I'm the reason why a lot
Of people are homeless, crazy, crippled
Why they're HIV positive and dead
But, you still want me
Feel the need for me to be in your possession
Fear to get high off
My intoxicating little pieces
Or to spread my love to profit
You're even willing to kill and die for me
And even though my mother, the white girl
Engaged in several orgies for my creation
I still know my father, you know him too
You follow his lead, and work with him
Claim you hate him but your actions
Are different from your tongue
Let's face it
You serve him faster than you do your God
We own you nigga
And as far as the ones that send I
And my mother here to destroy you
We own them too
So after all my destruction, I must
Pat myself on the back, uh uh
I am crack, the devil's daughter
Human life, minds destroy ya
You need me, yeah ya do, for sho' ya do
You really do
So go head on nigga, take a hit
I'ma keep putting you out on the streets
Freeze you now, help me to kill you
Hoodlum poetry, food for ya mind
Wake up deaf, dumb and blind, it's time
I'm the masteress, I'm the mobstress
I'm the pimpstress, and I own you
I'm the masteress, I'm the mobstress
And I own you, I'm trying to kill you
And I'm succeeding, yes I'm succeeding
I'm trying to kill you and I'm gon' do it
I'm gon' kill you, I'm gon' kill you
I'm gon' kill you, and it's bloody
