“Skittles” appears as the twelfth track on Clever’s second studio album “Crazy.” This track, featuring Lil Baby, supposedly is inspired by the tragic story of Trayvon Martin.
[Chorus: Clever]
Got the push-to-start but I had to pull over
If I beat another case, what's the score?
If I beat another case, what's the score?
When they'll kill you for the Skittles in your pullover
I don't wanna pull over anymore
I don't wanna pull over anymore
[Verse 1: Clever]
I keep my crown on the top like the 12 on the watch of my Rollie
I keep twelve on the watch but they can't hold me, nah
I lost my rights to keep a tool, I pray they never tempt me
'Cause if they play me for a fool, I'll bust it 'til it's empty
Bitch, I'm a giant, this is live from the beanstalk
You can throw shots now, I got me a slingshot
Got the long arm of the law in a sling
I don't even aim, I just sling shots, let it ring shots, yeah
We don't really fuck with the 5-0
Trying to pull me over on the side road
Got a license plate and I drive slow
Got a black man in that car with me
They treat me like it's just a drug thing
It's just another couple thug thing
Throw 'em in front of the judge thing
[Chorus: Clever]
Got the push-to-start but I had to pull over
If I beat another case, what's the score?
If I beat another case, what's the score?
When they get you for the Skittles and you pull over
I don't wanna pull over anymore
I don't wanna pull over anymore
[Verse 2: Lil Baby]
Where I'm from, the garbage made us hard as we got used to violence
I just lost my dog, this shit been hard, give him a moment of silence
Before I go out soft, I swear, I'll start a riot
Seems like we the only ones talkin', why everybody quiet?
Kill him in cold blood, won't give a fuck about his mama crying
I try to stay up so I won't dream about somebody dying
We ain't askin' for much, it won't be nothin', this shit ain't rocket science
And I'm little as fuck but I speak up to 'em like a giant
I'm ridin' for us, it ain't no question, I done picked my side
Before I take a chance and stop and lose my life, I'll keep on drivin'
I get knocked down all the time, I get back up and keep on strivin'
They don't wanna see me lit, my only job's to keep on shinin'
