Run the Jewels - Lie, Cheat, Steal Lyrics
[Verse 1: El-P]Smoke from the loosie driftHold it like a crucifixBlow from the nose I'm a dragon to a gnomeGot a average of bein' excellent the median just dopeLike the ratio of heroin to laxative that's soldAuthorities have spoken, demanded your pure devotionGet magnetized to the ground while the falcons of murder close inI chose to go guano, y'all know, kinda bat shitThe bright lights of *****ery stuck in me automaticI'll tea bag a piranha tank, heart barely beatin'A wild one who'll swim like directly after he's eatenWhile holding a toaster oven that's plugged with a fork in itCause death by electrocution's like life in New York, isn't it?Shoulda been a dentist, mom said itPain's the way that my craft expressesBorn in a little shop of horrors that I can't even afford to rent inWhere's the exit?Wanna talk shop I can chop it up with exacto touch, whats the rush?Autograph skin flaps, tag em upI don't brag enough you de facto suckA lotta you new to the El Producto milieuKinda like “***** is you?”I'm a little black spot on a sun of liesBut I'm not too high to say I'm the truthI line the booth to catch blood like a BatemanNothing sacred I'll mace a play penJewel runner ***** make the name stickNot for sale but I'm takin payments[Hook: Killer Mike]Lie, cheat, steal, kill, win, win(Everybody doin' it)Lie, cheat, steal, kill, win, winEverybody doin' itLie, cheat, steal, kill, win, win(Everybody doin' it)Lie, cheat, steal, kill, win[Verse 2: Killer Mike]I'm fly as a pegasus, that's no embellishmentI'm here to pain the whole game, where the ExcedrinGood *****, good marijuana that be my medicineAnd I'm a mixture of MJG and the WeathermenA revolutionary bangin' on my adversariesAnd I love Dr. King but violence might be necessaryCause when you live on MLK and it gets very scaryYou might have to pull your AK, send one to the cemeteryWe overworked, underpaid, and we underprivilegedThey love us, they love us (why?)Because we feed the villageYou really made it or just became a prisoner of privilege?You willing to share that information that you've been given?Like who really run this?Like who really run that man that say he run this?Who who really run that man that say he run this, run run run run this?Like who really fund this?Like who really fund who say he fund this?Like who in the world gon' tell Donald Sterl who to put on the “you can't come” list?Now don't be sillyWho the ***** gon' bully me if I got a billi?If I got a billi and the ***** recording me I'm like who caresWhat I wouldn't be is on TV stutterin' ta-ta-talkin' scaredSo the question is when Don's at home with that traitor ass ***** aloneWho's that voice on the side of the phone that shakes and rattles his bones?Could it be the man behind the man behind the man behind the throne?Gone[Hook: Killer Mike]Lie, cheat, steal, kill, win, win(Everybody doin' it)Lie, cheat, steal, kill, win, winEverybody doin' itLie, cheat, steal, kill, win, win(Everybody doin' it)Lie, cheat, steal, kill, winEverybody doin' itEverybody doin' itEverybody doin' it
