COOKIE

Verse 1
Drinking Carib with some dark-skinned Hindus
They said cookie why you doing all these things you ain’t into?
That’s a sensitive issue
True say, I ain’t been in true form since I left the womb
I hate going backwards it’s a moot point
Steupsing on the stoop my teeth granny asking why I’m acting so rude for
And I got no stories to tell her
I wonder if my father did it better

Chorus
And my cousin say he always down to ride for me
And he know a couple coolies who gone die for he
Why you acting hard bro?
Just cry for me
Spend some time with me
Know we went from smoking stogies to the lima beans

Just far enough
Dust don’t always turn to dust

Verse 2
Lost my hair
Buzz off
You look like an alien
Nephew skinny
Eat up
Doubles with some tamarind
Mind your manners
Chew first
I ain’t one of your friends and ‘dem
Pray for you
I pray for you every night
Yeah, you sizing up
You think you’re big you’re not, those hormones got you growing fast
Too tall
Come back down to where you was last summer
Fall flew by
You went off to college and I prayed for you
I pray for you every night

Chorus
And my cousin say he always down to ride for me
And he know a couple coolies who gone die for he
Why you acting hard bro?
Just cry for me
Spend some time with me
Know we went from smoking stogies to the lima beans

Just far enough
Dust don’t always turn to dust

Outro
With your self (self, self)
On your own (own, own)
It’s your fault, isn’t it?
Everything turned out the way it
With your self (self, self)
On your own (own, own)
It’s your fault, isn’t it?
Everying turned out the way it
