Little Witness by EKwesco Lyrics

Genre: rap | Year: 2017

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Air your dirty laundry out
Make her feel like fucking shit
Let her have it when you're mad
Yelling, "You're a fucking bitch"
Shout your business to your kids
Act like they don't hear that shit
Curse eachother till you cry
Be a child, throw a fit

[Chorus]
You can't clean up your own corpse!
(Man fuck that shit! Think about just what you're doing!)
Play it off, play the cost like it's nothing
Take a loss, brush it off. (Once more!)
(Repeat)

[Verse 1]
A little boy hears mommy and daddy are in a bad mood
It didn't start until his mother caught an attitude
She got caught in a lie and his dad knew
She put a mark on him, I guess she had to
Like the ink on this paper, he was mad blue
The mama couldn't shut her mouth, that was bad news
He barged back in pissed, she slapped dude
The morning started with some cereal and rad toons
It ended up shit flying and her back bruised
Similarities are caught from a tattoo
He didn't mean it, but the cops threw a flag
And put him in the car, he ain't never coming back
The trial was acquitted 'cause she made the first scratch
The boy saw it all in his grandmother's lap
The father said he's changing his location on the map
Little boy growing cold, eyes looking like a match
[Pre-Chorus 2]
Never let him finish talking
Never fucking hear him out!
Turn the tables on his heart!
Chest pains from the shouts!
Make him lose his faith in love
Make him wanna kill himself!
This for the little ones desperate for a little help!

[Chorus]
You can't clean up your own corpse!
(Man fuck that shit! Think about just what you're doing!)
Play it off, play the cost like it's nothing
Take a loss, brush it off. (Once more!)
(Repeat)

[Verse 2]
A couple people hear yelling coming from nextdoor
The sound of glass crashing, shattered on the floor
An easy way out, wide open is the door
He wants to let her have it like she really needs more
Shouts turned to crashes, and then it got silent
What was in the house was something so violent
Holes in the walls, carocine and lighters
The smell of burnt flesh, they try to find hydrants
Five blocks away, you can faintly hear sirens
A half hour later, the cops are outside
The fire stil blazes, neighbors in amazement
Laying in the shade, the medics never arrived
The walls fell over, and down comes the house
Officials stood and watched as the killer got out
He ran through the woods, he'd run and he'd never look back
Till his leg got snapped by a fucking bear trap
Incapacitated, he was trapped and wounded
He's screaming for some help, it was whack and useless
If he could erase it all, he'd go back and do it
Then a bear bit his leg off, and grabbed and chewed him
[Outro]
Sorry motherfuckers
What makes you want to fuck with the innocent?
They're not even paying attention to you

[Chorus]
You can't clean up your own corpse!
(Man fuck that shit! Think about just what you're doing!)
Play it off, play the cost like it's nothing
Take a loss, brush it off. (Once more!)
(Repeat)
