Q-Tip, Mobb Deep - Drink Away the Pain (Situations) lyrics

Yeah, about to get my thug on
The 41st side of things

I used to be in love
With this bitch named E&J
Don't fuck with her no more
Now I fuck with Tanqueray
Tanqueray introduced me to her
First cousin Gold (Yeah, that bitch)
Last name was English and the first name Olde
But Gold couldn't take the dick
It made me lazy we split apart and now I
Met this new trick Dainy
Now me and Dainy, we been together ever since
Our love combines to form a science
What is this?
I bust her cherry, took her virginity in '91
(Word) now that she's open
Everybody want to tap something
Go get your own
Don't make me have to fucking clap something


I love my shorty more than life
Now ain't that something?
To love you, Dainy, more than living it'self
Even though my friends tell me she
Ain't good for my health
When I go pick her up
They tell me put her back on the shelf
They say, yo P, she only
Wants you for one thing, that's your wealth
But I don't pay attention
'cause she's my baby, the Dainy
You know she drive me crazy
She's my number one lady
Met her back in '89, now she's 22
Acting like she 40 (Word)
She said "All I need is
A man to support me"
Besides, you from the 41st side of things
(Uhh) and Queensbridge niggas be acting
Like they kings
Pushin' Lexuses, wearing fat diamond rings
My cellular phone reigns
Supreme, international, think rational
The 12th Street crew
Move back when we come through

I think the whole world's going insane
I fill my brain up with Dainy
And drink away the pain
I think the whole world's going insane
I fill my mind up with liquor
And drink away the pain
I think the whole world's losing it's brain
I fill my brain up with liquor
And drink away the pain (What, what)
I think the whole world's going insane
I fill my mind up with Dainy
And drink away the pain

Tommy Hil' was my nigga
And others couldn't figure
How me and Hilfiger used to
Move through with vigor
Had to sit and plan on how
To make these seven figures
Said a Brinks is coming through
At Fashion Avenue
At Tuesday at two, now we gotta form a crew
Of motherfuckers
Who ain't going out like suckers
Told me call Karl Kani
And all my other brothers
I told my sister Walker
Who was the smoothest talker
Negotiate the deal with them
Other money stalkers
Diesel drove the the Bimmer
The hatchback of course
Nautica'll navigate to keep us on course
Polo's acting bolo
Trying to say he the Boss
I said shut the fuck up
The kid is out with the loot sack
Got a big trey pound
Itchin' just to swoop back
Timb is on the roof with
The twelve gauge rifle
Scope is on the top so
You know he livin' Eiffel
Took the aim of Oswald
Caught him North in the Face
All them other kids
They had they tools aimed at space
Levi had the snub
So you know they getting laced
Donna Karan was cryin' 'cause
Mad shells was flyin'
Damn, all we want is a piece of the pie and
Nike scooped the sacks 'cause
He moves like Air
Threw them shit's up in the trunk
Now we up out here
Got back to the mansion to divvy up the paper
Helly Hansen was the brain of
The whole entire caper
So she felt it was right
For her to get the whole slice
Everybody in the crew didn't
Think it was nice
I guess not, and Guess was hot, so guess what
(What?) guess took the jigga
And jigged her in the gut

When you play with crime
Sometimes it's not too fly
Even though the goods look
Deceiving to the eye
The end situation could leave your ass fried
(Yo, aiyo)
That's why you got to walk on by, walk on by
Walk on by, walk on by, walk on by

My man P put me on to the shorty Henn Rock
Now Henn Rock is strong enough
To make your heartbeat stop one sip
I thought the bitch was a fucking warlock
The more she started givin' me
The stronger I got
Pushed her off to the crew
Then she started gettin' jealous
Steamed 'cause I spent more
Cream with the fellas
"Fuck them niggas, spend that cheese on me
See if they be around when you need pussy"
Then I thought to myself
Yo this trick is right
Gathered up all my dough
So I spent the night i can't help it
She got my brain in a headlock
Niggas started riffin' "Why
You trickin'?, yo, this shit must stop
Moms like you need to see the AA
Better hope they help your ass
Out on the same day but never that
I got the shakes so I need that
Son call me stressed out, I just be that
But when it comes to Henn Rock, dunn
I need that she's my shorty for life
So fuck the feedback

I think the whole world's goin' insane
I fill my brain with the Henny
And drink away the pain
I think the whole world's lost it's brain
I sip away on the liquor
And drink away the pain

To all the brothers who ain't here
Pour a little somethin' on the floors man
Time to get a little bent, do our thing
Word up, the 41st side of Queens
Getting bent, you know what I mean
It's an everyday thing
Henny got my mind in a headlock
Dainy got me goin' crazy
Dainy take me away, Dainy take me away
