They always tell me that I'm colder than ice
But try ya best to not get caught in the hype
Cause I could give you back control of your life
You better handle me with caution caution
You try to mess wit me you gone pay the price (Gone pay the price)
I do my dirt and then I'm gone in the night (Gone in the night)
Don't try to tell me that I'm wrong when I'm right (Wrong when I'm right)
Cuz I ain't really with the talking
Ya walking into the end of a knife
I wasn't really doing much
But chilling in the kitchen
Laying in the cut you know
Playing my position
Watching the Super bowl
Really that's like tradition
And then that's when I had a vision
What I did to my old girl
Look at it how it's dripping off of your curls
If I say any more they probably gone hurl
I'll summarize it by saying it's a cold world a cold world
All I can tell you is I knew I cut her off
You could say it was destined
One day I saw her getting fresh
With one of her X men
That's when I disappeared
She was definitely stressing
Now she's guessing
But I guess that'll teach her a lesson
I been sharp baby and you know your reflection
We'll shine like me
Soon as we make a connection
I'm laughing at whoever told you sex is a weapon
Go and get some protection
Ain't gonna help
When she let me get in them guts
Oops I'm saying too much
When I'm stroking it's love
When I'm poking it's lust
Every time that we touch it
Is such a beautiful rush
We can turn me to us and together be dangerous
They always tell me that I'm colder than ice
But try ya best to not get caught in the hype
Cause I could give you back control of your life
You better handle me with caution caution
You try to mess wit me you gone pay the price (Gone pay the price)
I do my dirt and then I'm gone in the night (Gone in the night)
Don't try to tell me that I'm wrong when I'm right (Wrong when I'm right)
Cuz I ain't really with the talking
Ya walking into the end of a knife
I wasn't really doing much
But chilling in the kitchen
Laying in cut you know
Playing my position
Chopping up with the homey
About to make me some fixins
Lend me your ear it's time to listen
Cuz now I've got a roommate
A lazy roommate that always went to school late
An athlete but his temper wasn't too great
He's normally cool but
Sometimes he's such a 2 face and too fake
Pay attention I was on my protein
And my oatmeal thing
My eating healthy got me feeling so real thing
Heard a knock another knock and then the doorbell rang
A beauty queen damn I ain't have a chance to get clean
Look how she walked in
Noticed her pretty skin
Minimal mascara devilish little grin
Didn't know what to say
Didn't know where to begin
She wasn't here for me
And she only came here for him
Was dressed like she had recently just got out of church
She pulled some purple evidence up out of her purse
Another woman's underwear
You know what's worse
It's the same girl that I mentioned in my first verse
That's when she cursed at my patna
Yelling bout what she saw
Asking him bout some lingerie that she found in her car
I'm sitting back and I'm watching
Just trying not to get involved
That's when I heard her say that
She was ready to break the law
A tricky situation I was currently facing
The roommate or your soul mate
Who side are you taking
I wasn't saying nothing
I was watching and waiting
She's yelling and pacing
And now she's adjacent
To me I was standing there quietly
He started yelling
When she tried to get behind me
Then he put up his dukes like he thought he was Ali
You swing at me they'll have to hook you to an IV
Now matter fact you better say you know karate
Your family gonna have to come and get ya body
Before you try me you better find a hobby
Or you better go find a job like Martin said to Tommy
I'm not the type that you should ever try to get close to
Matter fact you should run you ever see me approach you
And now this loser talking like he trying to get vocal I'm like
Don't you have me in here bout to go postal
Ooh say it again then you gone say a prayer
I'm gone send you to heaven
And you can say it up there
This ain't a dare it's promise and I'll say I swear
I don't care I bet that you won't say I'm scared
They always tell me that I'm colder than ice
But try ya best to not get caught in the hype
Cause I could give you back control of your life
You better handle me with caution caution
You try to mess wit me you gone pay the price (Gone pay the price)
I do my dirt and then I'm gone in the night (Gone in the night)
Don't try to tell me that I'm wrong when I'm right (Wrong when I'm right)
Cuz I ain't really with the talking
Ya walking into the end of a knife
I wasn't really doing much
Now I know he's wishing
I wasn't in the cut
He gone need some stitching
I didn't wanna do it
Told you you wouldn't listen
She's the one who gave me permission
I knew that it was evil
But it made me feel dope
The way she got me feeling
I think we should elope
She reached around my body
Then she pulled me real close
She rubbed me on the face
And said it's time to get ghost
Your wish is my command
You rolling I'm rolling with ya
You say it's time to split
Don't worry I get the picture
She grabbed me by the wrist
If I could I would kiss you
In all the chaos I didn't get to tell you I miss you
I was thinking bout the cut
Like my mind was missing
Sitting in the car
You know playing my position
She drove up to the cliff and wait hold up wait
She said somebody's going fishing hold up
But I just ended a life
This how we're ending the night
Oh well you wasn't even my type
Wait is this the end of the knife
