Inbetween

[Verse 1:]

The police came and took my name and put me in a squad car

I told them kid that's my name and what I got was locked up

Pulled me in and punched me out and said I need a doctor

And stamped a paper to make proof not in my favor

I'm Ritchie rich I should have said my father is a lawyer

Cross the t's and dot the I's - I'm sorry to bore you

Didn't I couldn't I Shouldn't I warn you

The game you fool the jokes on you

Not involved, dragged and tossed outside the club

Wrong place and wrong time a fucked situation

Bugged eyes picked up like a puppet on a string

It happened so fast but with me it was slow motion

Police were called in and all in all you were the victim

Reports were made false alarm

Call the cops on the cops and get their badge numbers

All I did was wave and smile

[Chorus:]

I see gross thinks it's never what it seems

Deal with these things stick out in-between

I see gross things it's never what it seems

Deal with these things stick out in-between

[Verse 2:]

The FBI took me and asked me some questions

I kept quiet they said got caught red-handed

Knocked me down kicked me in and beat me with a phone book

Took my picture, stripped searched, put me in due process

Busted teeth I can't breath then I got was ten years

Headline news you wanna read society has been saved

Next week a massacre CNN describes

Thanks to bad news they can keep their jobs

The killer was mistaken was the top story hype

The problem never happened and the commercial gets the spot

Cause it's not about the story - the product paid shot

Keep your eyes on the TV and the business make the mark

With top new stories Coke can sell their pop

I've heard it all and it's not about war

I'm Tom Brokaw the stories for tonight

Ten died, car crash we'll be right back

[Chorus:]

I see gross thinks it's never what it seems

Deal with these things stick out in-between

I see gross things it's never what it seems

Deal with these things stick out in-between

[Chorus:]

I see gross thinks it's never what it seems

Deal with these things stick out in-between

I see gross things it's never what it seems

Deal with these things stick out in-between

[Bridge:]

A mistake no fire in the first place.

A mistake no fire in the first place.

A mistake no fire in the first place.

A mistake no fire in the first place.

[Verse 3:]

I'm sick of the shootings stop pointing your fingers

Point your finger to the shooter yourself

I'm sick of the shootings stop pulling the trigger

And hiding behind others to get away with it

Stop testing your limits your limits to something

I'm sick to my stomach. I'm sick to my stomach

I'm sick of the fighting cease to do nothing

Your part of the evil that is feeding this fire

What about the people that are part of this cuss

If I was to point fingers I'm part of the fuss

Stick out your middle finger your part of the buzz

Flip it for no reason, whatever or just because

I stay focused the more I focus

I see ashtrays behind the scenes

I dropped my eyes sometimes

All I did was the peace sign

[Chorus:]

I see gross thinks it's never what it seems

Deal with these things stick out in-between

I see gross things it's never what it seems

Deal with these things stick out in-between

[Chorus:]

I see gross thinks it's never what it seems

Deal with these things stick out in-between

I see gross things it's never what it seems

Deal with these things stick out in-between
