Evidence - It Wasn’t Me Lyrics

Evidence - It Wasn’t Me Lyrics

[Intro]
Uh, about to tell you who I are
Came a long way and I still got so far to go
Tee off with this trademark flow
And after tonight
I’mma let the whole world know
My name is Evidence

[Hook]
You ain’t got no
Evidence, evidence, evidence, evidence

[Verse 1]
If this is crime scene cinema
All the weak shops closed
Is it back to charging motherfuckers 4 for an O?
I don’t know
I keep a rotary phone
So I remember all the numbers of my homies who gone
Proof is in the pudding
I’m pressed up and labeled “evidence”
But never chasing fame, dragons, chicks, or dead presidents
Dreams, but never snatch chains of any measurements
Because of my name, for every fuckin’ crime they find the relevance
Choices in my life that I want to correct
I got voices in my head that I want to forget
Uh and I don’t live with regret
But I’ve been living with a chick while other chicks try to text
It wasn’t me

[Hook]
You ain’t got no
Evidence (There’s no proof without the)
Evidence (Who wants truth without the)
Evidence, evidence

[Verse 2]
Yeah, my first album only had underground appearances
So what’s the outcome?
I’m still an underground lyricist
And fame don’t even capture what my interest is
I’m halfway to famous, halfway away from infamous
My naked eyes are like my memory chips
Everything digested comes up when I spit
I say so be it
Without a whistle, call it how I see it (Yeah)
Whether in my boundaries or in another region
I’m speeding on the highway with my girl shotty
Keep a plant in my car, like Good Friday
Keep my world Godly
I stay grounded like my lobby
Tag a bucket on the wall but never tatted on my body
My music and my graf are livin’ separate lifes
One gets me paid, the other’s payin’ the price
Either way they’ll say I’m spraying at night
But how the fuck, when I’m touring overseas on a flight
It wasn’t me

[Hook]

[Verse 3]
The flow’s connected like I knew people
Director of photography, I shoot people
Named by Will.I.Am
Maybe made a milli, maybe I don’t give a damn (True)
I thought of evident
I mispronounced it, Evidence
Fast forward, here we are, standing in the present tense
I never thought about fame
I just thought about if KRS would know my name
But since then it’s like so much has changed
Body baggin’ the shows, they say I’m killing the stage
It wasn’t me

[Hook]

Evidence - You Lyrics

Evidence - You Lyrics

I’m on the Evidence Project too
We just did a banger, it’s gonna be coming through…

[Evidence]
Microphone check 1, 2
Who’s the one that’s been running the race? Me!
Who’s the one that’s been running in place? You
Who’s the one you tried to find, so tough
But the whole time, sitting in front of your face

I’m on another level, I mean another label
Players don’t die, we try our luck at other tables
And when I lose, I learn, I’m still winning major
I jump forward then back and through the missin’ stages
A perfect day to make a perfect entrance

A perfect sentence? I can’t perfect, but
I just keep pushing pencils, no fake trace stencils
Do it all by hand so they have respect
I know the feeling when you’re dealing with accomplishments
Wishing they would diss you, instead they give you compliments
What made you who you are? Not what you became
Part of being a star is getting burned in flames
Kind of ill, the mind’s a trip
20/20 when we broke, but blind when rich
I just see it as a sign, but kept rhyming instead
And keep lighting up these pads like Simon Says

[Hook]
What! Who’s the one that’s been running the race?
Who’s the one that’s been running in place?
Who’s the one you tried to find, so tough
But the whole time, sitting in front of your face

One’s a lonely number, two’s the first loser
So how the fuck can you win? Become a drug abuser
Slapping these beats, I’m no snoozer
6 million ways to die: go ahead and choose one
We from the same block, but all we getting is the same guap
I think one of us needs to shine
Only room for one, one of us needs to go
Sink a boat and only one’ll survive
Caution at the wheel, Westside when I drive slow
First sign of tidal waves? When you see the tide low
Wanted for murder and theft, they said I’m liable
I shot the sheriff but didn’t steal his rifle
I can’t define what’s real and what’s imagination
Since I signed that deal before my graduation
I went from running track and field to tracks with feel
To Grammys with Ye before Late Registration

[Hook]

Fast-forward no fears, one card, no Rollie
One crib, trips to Chile with Kush in the Philly
Every turn starts with one step: that’s on me
One foot in front of the other like “come on feet!”
One life, one love, bat a G for one glove
For Mike, rest in peace, shot a bullet from one slug
I keep it pushing as one does, only get one shot
One glance, one chance at one buzz
One never knows hopes and dreams
The farther we fly, the closer it seems
Back to the one squared, all I need in this life is one snare
One mic direct, fly tonight, one Airs
One of a kind, still one to my grind
One time for your motherfuckin mind
When I flow, know that the rain soon comes
See you might win some, but you just lost one
