Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]
[A][Am]

[Verse 1]
[Am]Yo
Headed out to the outlets in Riverhead
I met the plug and then I fled
Flew south with the family
Breaking fast, breaking bread
Bitch, it's big business
Print "The Villain" on the letterhead
You fear the man behind
the figurehead
You can't reach him
I never bled,
I never shed a tear neither
Always knew from the bottom
the hill appears steeper
Climb the lizard head with precision
Exhibiting these mountaineer procedures
Get the cake
They're gonna smear my name
and blow the candles out
Pussies' fate
Playing games,
get slain at the hands of clout
Way too late
Ain't even ashamed to take
my hand me downs
Invade your space
I engraved my name,
they understand me now
Maybe not,
they never stand for nothing
Pulling strings
Pull up with sticks and drums
like a band or something
If you can, then up it
There ain't nothing in your hand,
you're bluffing
Chop 'em like a sample, Bully
Time to make examples of 'em

[Verse 2]
I bent the rules, [Am]now I
can't make the bills fold
They'll cross you in the streets,
traitors like the silk road
Burned your bridge, intentions don't matter,
you still told
Can't strip him for his jewels,
14k's not real gold
I'm not old and I feel old
Life's moving fast,
time's moving real slow
Overkill mode,
bullet holes and steel toes
Winter's over, still snows
Yeah, my shoulder's still cold

[Verse 3]
Yo, [Am]shift and swerve, flipped the curb,
rolled in the lake
Whole whip submerged
I emerge without a scratch on me
With the pack on me
It probably should've been a wrap for me
I don't see The Villain living past 40
Pass the 40, it's okay to laugh,
it's just raps, homie
Don't you get a couple thou' and try
to act holy
"You getting better"
What a rapper with wack raps told me
I react slowly
Fill my rec room with plaques and trophies
Sad to say, my bad habits
gave me my accolades
I had to wait, really ain't nothing
left to congratulate
Graduated, I had to make it
without financial aid
Money takes me far away,
listen close to crack the safe
I was twice the man when I
was half my age
I'm half decayed
Less is more,
let me extrapolate and incapsulate
No cap, that capsule you ate
Made your brain melt and evaporate
You last day's a cap away,
disastrous fate

[Verse 4]
I bent the rules, [Am]now I can't
make the bills fold
They'll cross you in the streets,
traitors like the silk road
Burned your bridge, intentions don't matter,
you still told
I can't strip him for his jewels,
14k's not real gold
I'm not old and I feel old
Life's moving fast,
time's moving real slow
Overkill mode,
bullet holes and steel toes
Winter's over, still snows

[Outro 1]
Yeah, my shoulder's still cold
[Am]
