Evil Deeds Lyrics
[ Intro ]
Lord please forgive me for what I do?
For I know not what I’ve done?
[ Chorus ]
Father please forgive me for I know not what I do
I just never had the chance to ever meet you
Therefore I did not know that I would grow to be
My mother’s evil seed and do these evil deeds
[ Verse 1 ]
Momma had a baby and it’s head popped off x5
My momma didn’t want me, next thing I know I’m getting dropped off x4
Ring ring ring on the door bell of the next door neighbors on their front porch. x4
But they didn’t want me neither, so they left me on someone else’s lawn. x3
Til someone finally took me in, my great aunt and uncle Edna and Charles x4
They were the ones who were left in charge
My elementary they’d gang up on me and sing this song. x4
It went a little something like: Mary had a little lamb x3
Debbie had a Satan spawn x2 Momma, why do they keep saying this?
I just don’t understand, And by the way, where’s my dad?
[ Chorus ]
[ Verse 2 ]
Predominantly. Predominantly. Everything’s always predominantly
Predominantly white. Predominantly black
Well what about me? Where does that leave me?
Well I guess I’m in between predominantly both of em
I think if I hear that fucking word again I’ma scream
Wild projectile, vomiting, what do I look like a comedian to you’
Do you think that I’m kidding’ What do I look like some kind of idi-
Wait a minute shit, don’t answer that, why am I so misunderstood’
Why do I go through so much bullshit, it’s such bullshit, it’s tull mull bish
Woe is me, There goes poor Marshall again
Whining about his millions and his mansion and his sorrow he’s always drowning in
And the dad that he never had and how his childhood was so bad
and how his mom was a dope addict and his ex-wife how they go at it
Man I’d hate to have it as bad as that Mr Mathers claims he had it, I can’t imagine it
That little rich poor white bastard needs to take some of that cash out of the bank and take a bath in it
Man, if I only had half of it, shit if you only knew the half of it …
[ Chorus ]
[ Verse 3 ]
Evil deeds, while I plant these evil seeds.
Please release me from these demons
I never had any of this shit planned mom, please believe
I don’t wanna be Satan’s spawn, never got the chance to say I’m sorry
Now look at all the pain I caused, Dear Santa Clause
Why you not comin this year again’
What did I do that was so bad to deserve this?
Everything could have been so perfect, but life aint a fairy tale
I’m bout to be hoisted up in the air, 40 feet below me, there’s people everywhere
I don’t even know but who feel like they know me cause I’m in this ferris wheel
And all I wanna do is go to the mall and take Hailie on the carousel
Without this crowd everywhere I go, but life is like a merry-go-round
Now here we go, Now dosie-do, Now curtains up, the shot must go
Now ring-around-the rosie, The shows over, You can all go home now
But the curtain just don’t close for me, this ain’t how fame is supposed to be
Where’s the switch I can just turn off and on’ This ain’t what I chose to be
So please God, give me the strength to have what it takes to carry on
Til I pass 50 back the baton, the camera’s on, My soul is gone
[ Chorus ]
