Never Crossed My Mind Lyrics - I Wish - Skee-lo

I used to think that I was hard 

The kind of kid you don't wanna mess wit' 

I'll fight you and your bodyguard 

I was illiterate, we're talkin' gibberish 

But never considerate of the way I treated friends 

I would fight ten kids and I would fly all heads 

I would even fight dragons 'til they'd be dead 

I would presidents and the mayor, you bet 

But it's just too bad because I ain't fought yet 

You see, I took a slug at no one 

But if I ever did, I'll have to show one 

That I was like, able to wreck it 

I thought I knew but I didn't know 

That all the talk in the world doesn't make you a pro 

And so, 'cause my first real fight in the hood 

I would bash a skull, if I could 

But that's when these kids wrecked my world 

Swept my feet up 

Straight got illed and I was nearly killed 

It never crossed my mind 

I could go ten different places at one time 

(All at one time) 

I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind 

(Walk through my mind) 

I never thought that it could happen to you 

I never thought that it could happen to me 

But then it happened, see 

Coolin' out, chillin' with my homeboy Paul 

Now we was chillin', talkin' to ladies up inside of the mall 

I got a few numbers and some girl's address 

So, I was feelin' kinda fly and I was dressed real fresh 

We was coolin' as if we didn't care 

He was too busy talkin', and so he wasn't aware 

That's when he caught a slug to his chest 

A hole in his vest, worst of all he made a mess all over the carpet 

Started to tumble all over the place 

'Cause a bullet has no name, it sees no face 

Anyways, this girl pulled a trigger on us 

She was tryin' to kill the man who's next to the man 

Who's next to the man...what? 

And that's all he got's to give 

He's ready to die, but I'm hopin' he lives 

It never crossed his mind 

I could go ten different places at one time 

(All at one time) 

I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind 

(Walk through my mind) 

For my groupies, why must you do me? 

You never knew me, so what makes you hot for me? 

Is it fortune and fame just because of my name 

You wanna tell your friends that you did it Skee 

See, we can't be, because there is no us 

You and I won't happen, so don't make no fuss 

Now we could persist with a hug and a kiss 

But I can't help but wonder ho's daughter is this? 

I'm glad you respect me, now let me respect you 

If I was a dog, then I might want you 

But if you want it that bad, then baby, don't get mad 

Because you're welcome to share with the rest of my crew 

Now that's on you I know you fellas who ain't wit' it 

You're thinkin' like, dang Skee, why don't you hit it? Do that, yeah! 

But you better think again next groupie could be your girlfriend 

Just in case it never crossed your mind 

I could go ten different places at one time 

(All at one time) 

I could jump through my ears and walk through my mind 

(Walk through my mind) 

You never what could happen everyday situations 

It could happen you're going to the store 

Somebody drop a house on you and steal yo' slippers 

Who knows? Never crossed your mind
