Adversary


You will see me on the street You may not know who I am But chances are, I probably hate you I can't help if I'm 'evil' I just am And I still roam your streets the adversary Being a villain isn't rainbows and butterflies It is a life devoid of moderation and comprise But forget it I have a chance to be good But I prayed everyday For my difference to go away But nobody cried for me No one held a silent prayer You threw me Burning in an urban jungle Going 99 on the highway to hell It burns, so what, bite me You'll remember me with a bad taste in the mouth But bitch you'll never forget me And I won't forget you So say hi to your friendly neighborhood villain Because if theirs an ounce if truth in you, just spill it Or spit it at me. You can't deny how far I've come How high I'll fly Lover to me? I'd love to see you try I'm a villain Because the world's too full of heroes And full of its own shit If this includes you Well you know who I am So say hi to the adversary Who might spit in your food at McDonald's or ruin Your aniversary But what I won't do is get rid of you You see Y'all complete me And I'm happy I can complete you Now get on with your mundane lives as I ruin you
