Lyrics

THUGBRAT
by Joey"G-Clef" Cavaseno

chorus:
thugbrat, what what let's make it happen
standing on a corner somewhere in manhattan
daddy is a lawyer but he likes to front,
sport da bubble down and ya smokin a blunt
thugbrat, yo what's it gonna be?
do you want him or do you want me?
can anyone thug be ruff enuff?
or are you only doomed to live triflin'?

brought up in a house with an intercom
now she never goes out without wearing a thong
pops paid for 12 years of private skool
just to have his baby doll break all the rules.
she thought she'd trade it in for the school of hard knocks
now her jeep's glove compartment's used for storage of hot glocks.
Her friends never thought she'd really take it this far
today she got arrested in the getaway car.
(chorus)
samantha got knocked up at the age of 20
baby father selling work so she thought she'd have plenty
but every now and then she caught him creepin' with a sista
and when she got vexed he'd just hit her then kiss her
she'd put up with all kinds of drama and madness
but the day he got knocked it was tears of sadness.
It didnt take long for sam' to recover .
Just a month later she fuckin' another brother.
(chorus)
sam eventually settled down with a herb named tommy.
he looked out for her seed and he looked out for mami.
tommy had a job and he even went to skool.
he worked mad hard but she played him for a fool.
baby father hit da streets out on work release.
but samantha craves drama and she gets bored with peace.
baby daddy in the bedroom while tommy's at work.
straight hittin the skins while tommy's lookin like a jerk.
mad peeps tried to put tommy up on the deal.
but he'd only cut them off saying "nah, she keeps it real"
sam provoked him one evening just to start a fight.
then she cried to baby daddy and sent him out into the night.
daddy's team followed tommy's crew all over town
cased him on the creep without makin a sound
the car pulled up then the window came down
the last thing tommy heard was "ch-ch POW!"
now tommy's gone baby daddy's doing life
and everybody in town knows samantha lives trife
so if you ever find yourself with a girl like sam ,
run like hell cause she won't give a damn
she's a (chorus)
