Voice Of Reason Lyrics - Chamillionaire

Hold up, hold up, hold up, hold up 

A conversation between 2 different people 

one's the original and one's the sequel 

See one ain't never scared to tell you what he believe in 

but you always got the other one that's that voice of reason 

listen, 

See life is a game of chess and I never could be a pawn 

I calculate every step they gonna kiss the ring of the don 

these basic women I meet they could never be on my arm 

love me 'cause of my ice and the blueishness of my charm 

ain't stressing about a heffer, I treat her just like my songs, 

play her then play her twice, she'll remember me when I'm gone 

ain't nobody that want it they knowin I'm gonna respond 

these suckers is false alarms and they knowin that ima bomb 

let a sucker pull out his heat like he's darin me to reply 

I'm speaking in to his piece like I'm daring the kid to try 

most people will hold the truth they'll share it if its a lie 

and the truth is before I let you embarrass me i would die 

so I'm living like Superman what the hell is the Kryptonite 

when I know I can have some gangstas show up at your crib tonight 

don't think you're invincible 'cause you're holding your pistol tight 

you pull a mack in my sight and I bet you won't live to type 

careful of how I rep when I throw my set in the sky, 

living a life that's factual I never could live a lie 

a legacy lives forever, some Arabs just live to die 

so when the grim reaper try me I'm staring him in his eye, 

can't put on a business tie that ain't really the way I hustle 

ain't trying to scuff up the suit negotiate with my knuckles 

currency out in customs euros inside the duffel money I didn't declare 

I see ten but it's really double 

you touch it theres gonna be trouble no one touching my cash 

i'm welcoming any suckers and busters who wanna clash 

just cause I put on the hoodie don't mean that I'm lower class 

we can disgust the future but that don't erase the past 

no stopping my vibrating keep on moving and shaking 

brought more illegal hundreds through custom and immigration 

on the quest to be great and I probably gonna show up late 

when I'm leaving my lady waiting and I call it anticipation 

go ahead throw a stone if you feel it will entertain you 

better hope that you miss and don't be the one getting strangled 

they say that money can change you that depends on the angle 

tell me how much it cost to get turn to a perfect angel 

she talking relationships and the exit to be complete 

moved in to kiss the lips and I missed em and kiss the cheek 

generations confused they know that they can't compete 

their movements ain't really moving I'm moving way from my seat 

they stay away from the drama you probably could be Obama 

just because how I dress they look at me like I'm Osama 

interrogating, you ask the last time that I've seen my father 

tell you that when you guess the last time that I see my mama 

They say that it will be alright but sometimes I kind of doubt, 

I admit that i doubt it 

they say that it will be alright but sometimes I kind of doubt it 

I admit that I doubt it 

See that's how the conversation normally go 

until you flip over the card and see the other side of the conversation 

it's always the wise man, the og, giving you a little game you know on the convoys soundin like, 

See life is a game of chess try your best to not be the pawn 

calculate every step make em kiss the ring of the don 

every woman you meet treat her good as you treat your mom 

and i promise you'll end up with something beautiful on your arm 

don't stress about no one else treat your family just like your songs 

calculate what you say they'll remember it when your gone 

any question you get that ain't worthy then don't respond 

you let em think what they think and just kill em all with 

your charm, killa pull out his heat and he daring you to reply 

that's speakin like you a chief or a sheriff will never fly 

most people will hold the truth but they'll share it if it's a lie 

the truth is you really cant get embarrassed after you die 

don't try to be Superman when you standin on Kryptonite 

think carefully when you speak might help you live tonight 

don't think your invincible cause your holding your pistol tight 

you see a mack in your sight that don't mean you gonna live to Skype 

be thankful of every breath like you cherishing the supply 

you'll be a breath of fresh air learn to humidify 

a legacy lives forever it's probably the biggest lie 

cause a legacy ain't gonna live if no one remembers you died 

go put on a business tie make em respect your hustle 

you can keep on the sneaks so they'll know you came up like Russell 

currency out in customs don't sneak it until you duffel 

it's money you didn't declare then the people gonna think your trouble 

you stackin than keep it suttle you can go make the cash 

but careful or all the vultures and cultures that love to clash 

just cause you wear a hoodie don't mean that your lower class 

we can go fix the future but that don't erase the past 

no hatin your vibratin i know your moving and shaking 

but savor the later look at your vault you'll see its vacant 

on the quest to be great and i know you'll probably be late 

when your leaving your lady waitin just hope she dont get taken 

tired of finger pointing your doing what entertain you 

but member its entertainment not something that can sustain you 

say that money changed you never a perfect angel 

but angel invest and hope that lead to the perfect angel 

the woman that you give your ring to i hope that she never cheat 

she moving and kiss your lips i just hope the kiss is sweet 

this generation is confused what the hell is a twitter tweet 

your movement aint really moving its doing it from your seat 

stay away from the drama your probably could be Obama 

don't act like we ever thought that we would even see Obama 

i know you aint seen your momma i know you aint seen your father 

but just caused they disappeared dont mean you gotta be a gone'er...
