Skee-lo - Never Crossed My Mind Lyrics
I used to think that I was hardThe kind of kid you dont wanna mess witIll fight you and your bodyguardI was illeterate, were talkin gibberishBut never considerate of the way I treated friendsI would fight ten kids and I would fly all headsI would even fight dragons til theyd be deadI would presidents and the mayor, you betBut its just too bad because I aint fought yetYou see, I took a slug at no oneBut if I ever did, Ill have to show oneThat I was like, able to wreck itI thought I knew but I didnt knowThat all the talk in the world doesnt make you a proAnd so, cause my first real fight in the hoodI would bash a skull, if I couldBut thats when these kids wrecked my world, swept my feet upStraight got illed and I was nearly killedIt never crossed my mind[chorus]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 youI never thought that it could happen to meBut then it happend, seeCoolin out, chillin with my homeboy paulNow we was chillin, talkin to ladies up inside of the mallI got a few numbers and some girls addressSo I was feelin kinda fly and I was dressed real freshWe was coolin as if we didnt careHe was too busy talkin, and so he wasnt awareThats when he caught a slug to his chestA hole in his vest, worst of all he made a mess all over the carpetStarted to tumble all over the placecause a bullet has no name, it sees no faceAnyways, this girl pulled a trigger on usShe was tryin to kill the man whos next to the manWhos next to the man...what?And thats all he gots to giveHes ready to die, but Im hopin he livesIt never crossed his mind[chorus]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 nameYou wanna tell your friends that you did it skeeSee, we cant be, because there is no usYou and I wont happen, so dont make no fussNow we could persist with a hug and a kissBut I cant help but wonder whos daughter is this?Im glad you respect me, now let me respect youIf I was a dog, then I might want youBut if you want it that bad, then baby, dont get madBecause youre welcome to share with the rest of my crewNow thats on youI know you fellas who aint wit itYoure thinkin like, dang skee, why dont you hit it? do that, yeah!But you better think againNext groupie could be your girlfriendJust in case it never crossed your mind[chorus]You never what could happenEveryday situationsIt could happen youre going to the storeSomebody drop a house on you and steal yo slippersWho knows?Never crossed your mind
