"30 Miles From Baltimore" lyrics
(feat. Brotha)
Yeah, oh
I don't know what's happening, yo
Dear Diary, it's Thursday, 2 o'clock AM
Yo, play housewife, nice girl, read books
Dinner cooked at 6 type but somethin' ain't right
Yo, it's strange, this yearnin' in me, maybe it's the German in me?
Thinkin' 'bout Shepherds and Rugers a lot lately
Bite you, blast too, growl too, got this tattoo on my thigh
Paw prints climbin' high, it's frightenin'
Other day, signed my VISA China White and
Caught myself gettin' excited, I don't know what's happenin'
Crazy scar on my forehead from the car crash three years ago
Left for dead, they found me, had amnesia though
But I still got married, supposed to be happily
But now I'm startin' to think that nigga might be after
Along with everybody else
Everybody else seems to think my memories comin' back in bits and pieces
I caught myself choppin' the cat in bits and pieces
If that's the old me somebody should of told me
Now I got visions of blastin'
Last night I told my husband just fuck me in the ass
And I don't like sex, at least I don't think I did
Now I can't sleep, thinkin' 'bout things I did or might of done
Thinkin' more and more about this girl named Charli Baltimore
Bad bitch, fuckin' up niggas for cabbage
See, I'm either cursed or shit is gettin' worse
And by the end of the next somebody's leavin' in a hearse, uh
Take these broken wings
And learn to fly again, learn to live so free (Uh)
And when you hear the voices sing
The book of life will open up and let you in
(Dear Diary, it's Friday, 4:30 AM, I know what's happenin')
Uh, AHHH
Woke up sweatin', check the mirror
My hair is red and it was brown 'bout an hour ago
Looked in the shower yo, my hair was all in there
Must of cut it, fuck it, think I'm startin' to love it
I'm feelin' kinda faint, that girl next door I ain't that no more
Who am I? Baltimore, as in Charli? It's all comin' back
I used to pack gats, kill cats for stacks
Fuck panties, threw some thongs up in the crack, I'm back
C.B. a.k.a. China White, Tiffany Lane ain't my name, who dat?
Woke my spouse, told him I'm out, he said 'Why?'
I said, 'If I don't go you'll fuck around and die'
He said, 'You're loco, I'm 'bout to call the popo...'
So I pulled out the .44, hit 'em in the toe yo
Called an ambulance and broke out, don't know where I'm goin'
I just know how to get there
Don't know, might blow niggas heads off when I get there
30 miles out of Baltimore I knew my mission
Premonitions like Dionne for this position
'Cause I mixed gas with freon, turn your ignition, it's on
I'm 'bout to get my Goodnight Kiss on
Take these broken wings (Take)
And learn to fly again, learn to live so free (Oh, oh yeah)
Yo, yo, yo my car axed and it was no act of fate
Three cats caused a malfunction in my breaks
Fuckin' with the inside of Benz, man it's stupid (Ahhhh)
I crashed but wasn't dead, they followed
Aimed at my head and started shootin'
Caught one in the temple but it grazed me
But see, that's what had me forget that I was crazy (Oooh yeah)
Now I remember it all, every bit (Oooh yeah)
Even though that's three years ago, somebody gettin' hit
Y'all motherfuckers should of finished what y'all started (Take)
Revenge is sweat, haha, I just pulled up to they street sign
30 miles up out of Baltimore in a town called 'Your Ass Is Mine The Fault Is Yours'
They lived together, uh, 116 Death Wish Row was they address (Yeah)
They the type, sleep with MAC-10s under they mattress
Scoped the place, mixin' hairspray with nail polish in Heiny bottles
Put 'em at every window, huh, now I'm in yo (Take)
Kicked in the door and take aim, I see one nigga praying
Bet he ain't see me slit his throat, put his head right through the TV
'Fuck, it's C.B.', (Oh) I hear another one yellin' while he's runnin' to the cell
I'm chasin' 'em down to the basement and fell in
We tusslin', yo this cat got some muscles
But I picked up a shovel, knocked 'em out then I glocked 'em out (Oh yeah oooh)
Just then I heard, 'Don't move!', the third and final foe
I said 'Remember me?' I..., he cut me off and said, 'I know!'
'Bout to dismember me, he had an axe, I'm bulletless (I'll take)
Grabbed my gat, pulled the clip, he went to hit, I rolled away
Seen a window, spied the Heiny bottle with the hot shit
He raised the axe, I got the match lit, uh (Take these wings yeah)
Take these broken wings (Learn to fly)
And learn to fly again, learn to live so free (Take these wings of mine)
And when you hear the voices sing (Take these wings of mine)
The book of life will open up and let you in (Take)
Take these broken wings (Take)
And learn to fly again, learn to live so free (Lord take them)
And when you hear the voices sing (Oh oh oh)
The book of life will open up and let you in (Oh oh oh oooh)
