D'evils Lyrics - Reasonable Doubt - Jay-z

This shit is wicked on these mean streets 

None of my friends speak 

We're all trying to win, but then again 

Maybe it's for the best though, 'cause when they're seeing too much 

You know they're trying to get you touched 

Whoever said illegal was the easy way out couldn't understand the 

mechanics 

And the workings of the underworld, granted 

Nine to five is how to survive, I ain't trying to survive 

I'm trying to live it to the limit and love it a lot 

Life ills, poison my body 

I used to say 'fuck mic skills,' and never prayed to God, I prayed to 

Gotti 

That's right it's wicked, that's life I live it 

Ain't asking for forgiveness for my sins, endz 

I break bread with the late heads, picking their brains for angles on 

all the evils that the game'll do 

It gets dangerous, money and power is changing us 

And now we're lethal, infected with D'Evils...

We used to fight for building blocks 

Now we fight for blocks with buildings that make a killing 

The closest of friends when we first started 

But grew apart as the money grew, and soon grew black-hearted 

Thinking back when we first learned to use rubbers 

He never learned so in turn I'm kidnapping his baby's mother 

My hand around her collar, feeding her cheese 

She said the taste of dollars was shitty so I fed her fifties 

About his whereabouts I wasn't convinced 

So I kept feeding her money 'til her shit started to make sense 

Who could ever forsee, we used to stay up all night at slumber parties 

now I'm trying to rock this bitch to sleep 

All the years we were real close 

Now I see his fears through her tears, know she's wishing we were still close 

Don't cry, it is to be 

In time, I'll take away your miseries and make 'em mine, D'Evils...

My flesh, no nigga could test 

My soul is possessed by D'Evils in the form of diamonds and lexuses 

The exorcist, got me doing skits like Homie 

You don't know me, but the whole world owe me 

Strip! 

Was thought to be a pleasant guy all my fucking life 

So now I'm down for whatever, ain't nothing nice 

Throughout my junior high years it was all friendly 

But now this higher learning got the Remy in me 

Liquors invaded my kidneys 

Got me ready to lick off, mama forgive me 

I can't be held accountable, D'Evils beating me down, boo 

Got me running with guys, making G's, telling lies that sound true 

Come test me, I never cower 

For the love of money, son, I'm giving lead showers 

Stop screaming, you know the demon said it's best to die 

And even if Jehovah witness, bet he'll never testify, D'Evils...
