[Chorus: x2] All things, ain't, what they seem You'll get washed; even if you're way too clean [Opio] I was ridin around the Lake gettin smoked last night Seen a gang of businessmen pilin out the Scottish Rite It was just lascivious, cuz ducked in the three-way Givin those ridiculous handshakes to the PD and the DA But I'm hip to the sign language it's just an exchange Of the blood brotherhood who remains nameless But to me y'all famous, and I got game just the same Man it floods my brain, ya can't frame us [Pep Love] They got plans, plots and schemes Like a dope fiend tryin to get that ice cream cola [Opio] My nigga hold up, things is not as they seem You get washed; even if you're way too clean [Pep Love] Deceptions inception and interception of our direction Is intertwined with what goes on in our minds Take a look at your reflection What you perceive is based on what you believe is true Shackled and chained and thinkin you as free As a eagle in the sky - need I remind you? The pen is an inkwell, niggaz is slaves Even if we not locked up, we on our way [Opio] They got plans, plots and schemes Like a dope fiend tryin to get that ice cream cola [Pep Love] My nigga hold up, things is not as they seem You'll get washed; even if you're way too clean [Chorus] [Pep Love] I'm bent like a slinky, where the hoes at? Just got paid, pockets on fat Friday night, everything is right Til Opio hung a left then I seen his lights (siren) But we "B-Legit" like "The Savage" We da shit, got L's and a pocket full of cabbage One time did a search and found we had scratch Itched it and took us downtown Matched . [Opio] . Descriptions of two individuals who just did a bank heist Small timin shanked the guard twice in his neck A Purple Heart Vietnam vet They test me and eye-witness fingered out Pep So the next logical step was: I drove the getaway Accessory to murder, court date set for May Put my ass in North County on set for Pelican Bay And since I'm not Orenthal J., I can't pay Shapiro the dinero to get away clean A nigga got twenty years though, know what I mean? [Pep Love] They got plans, plots and schemes Like a dope fiend tryin to get that ice cream cola [Opio] My nigga hold up, things is not as they seem You get washed; even if you're way too clean [Chorus] [Outro] "Does anybody know what the situation is? Do you know what we can do and what we can't do? What we can say and what we can't say? I don't know that anymore. And I don't have enough time to go and research all the laws. So I'm in the position That the only thing I can say about that is FUCKIT."
