lyrics
Verse1
I’m on that gangster shit, i’ll flip but still chillo
brick by brick we lift the style, Brillo
tough by nature, hate that y’all pillow
keeps it real, don’t squeal or i’ll peel bro
like bananas with clips, the same size like the Clipse, we grindin'
really we split pies for the grip, I’m wildin'
really no tough guy, but i will get violent
really it’s no lie,
Chorus
it’s that Crooklyn in me
I can’t change
even if i tried i swear you'd get the same
it’s that Crooklyn in me
really it won’t leave
i’m the boss of badass, God among thieves
Verse2
Crooklyn in me, yup pure loco
crack your lungs up, rip vocals
it’s that free beyond free fly and wreak havoc
old radio style, bring static
i got fire in the kitchen, workers in the attic
dimes in the living room, living on a mattrass
bad, bad things, something like an actress
they love the bad boys attract them like magnets
get up to speed on this
still light up the room with a flick of the wrist
still light up the room with the heat off the hip
put a nigga in a tomb if he’s loose with his lips
Chorus
it’s that Crooklyn in me
I can’t change
even if i tried i swear you'd get the same
it’s that Crooklyn in me
really it won’t leave
i’m the boss of badass, God among thieves
Verse 3
Black Mamba, the style Kobe
running through all your O.G.’s
they crying over boo-boos, i’m dodging the law Yogi
smooth criminal style, crucial in any town
young gunner got the cynical smile, visual prowl
edge of mystery, i got history getting victories
never take an L, rather take ‘em to hell, typically
put me in a cell, still running your jail mentally
the mind too sharp for your trickery,
why you think
Chorus
it’s that Crooklyn in me
I can’t change
even if i tried i swear you'd get the same
it’s that Crooklyn in me
really it won’t leave
i’m the boss of badass, God among thieves
