Sumthin' Wicked This Way Comes by TLC ft. Andre 3000
Remember back in the time
When the only sign we had was pickets?
But now in '94, it be this way
Something come wicked
Gangs killing others fo' colors
Thangs that we wear fo' fashion
Other brothers take it fo' what reason?
To be blasting
What da kcuf is (1)__________ on?
Not soft like buttercups but
Had enough of singin' (2)________ same song
See, I (3)____________ across the street from the projects
Took out yo' momma trash and groceries
To her trunk
To (4)________ my pockets fat, like cellulite
Only been to jail one week fo' some shull-bit
And I pray to God I won't repeat
I shoulda pulled it (5)________ I had the chance to
No, I shouldn't a did that, cuz if I did that?
Y'all would not hear that phat shit
That (6)__________ you on yo' tippy-toes
Like that fella, not calling no names
But really "who's bad?"
I go through obstacles like a whole box of condoms
You can't forget what you come from
Take a good look in the mirror
And tell me, do you like what you see
Masters of deception, corruption and evil
But you're always quick to (7)__________ the (8)____________ at me
Won't somebody (9)________ me
I just don't understand
The ways of the world today
Sometimes I feel like
There's (10)______________ to (11)________ for
So I'm longing for the (12)________ of yesterday
What gave you the right to misjudge me
And write me off on the wall
Acting as if you (13)____________________ me
In reality, you (14)________ don't know me at all
Sometimes I can't help but wonder
If (15)________ was how it's meant to be
But if you search (16)________ enough in your soul
You'll always find a (17)____________ reminder of me
Won't somebody tell me
I just don't understand
The ways of the world today
Sometimes I feel like
There's (18)______________ to live for
So I'm longing for the days of yesterday
A-yo, if we could all agree
To letting our souls become free
Of that sweet bitterness
Then who's (19)__________ would (20)________ the most seeds?
I keep misfocusing my needs
And distress on my back with (21)________ cats
They be blasting into my knapsack
Ain't no accidental deathtraps
My mishap is the (22)________ that I'm destined to snap
It's when I feel as though my body's (23)________ to go
My mind is (24)__________ to flow, didn't you know?
First you catch and then I throw
It's my own sense of time
If I'm late, it's 'cuz I'm ending my day
Just when the sun shines
And still gently advising the arising of the moon
As it rolls around into my soundproof dimension
I just don't understand
The ways of the world today
Sometimes I feel like
There's nothing to live for
So I'm longing for the days of yesterday
I just don't understand

There's nothing to live for
So I'm longing for the (25)________ of yesterday
