Diamond Shell Cut School Lyrics

Cut School Lyrics

[Diamond Shell]



Here I am bored, man, sittin in my math class



How much longer?(Yo thirty minutes G)



Yo, let me get this bathroom pass



I raised my hand but the teacher expects it



and I didn't put it up there to get it neglected



And yo, I'm not goin out like that so 



I excused myself and interrupt the hoe



She hands me a pass and says, "Two minutes Shell"



(Wha-huh) Givin me a pass 



is like the ringin the dismissal bell



I'm out the door, and I step to the left



The noise in the lunchroom sounds crazy def



I step in, I see a new face so hey



I introduce myself, hello I'm Shell, "I'm Natae"



We talked for a while and when I was through



She slid me her digits, yeah that'll do



I stood up and got ready to leave the place



and bumped into my teacher, face to face



So to avoid bein dragged off back to class



I pumped my Reeboks and pimp game and just hauled ass



Dipped around the corner, down the staircase



Security grabbed me, man I ain't goin no place



Kids if you think that's funny or cool



The only thing it got me was suspended from school



So don't ya ever cut school



I'm tellin ya, don't ever cut school







Six A.M., my mom came down to shake me



"Shell, time for school!" Man, but no need to awake me



I play it off, I get up and dress myself



Grab my schoolbooks from off the bookshelf



I step out, and now I'm bored as could be



So what will I do?Hang out with Capital T



I step around the corner, to the bus stop



Hey yo Cap!"Yo Shell, what's happenin G?



Yo man I heard what happened, yo that's foul



But yo we can both hang together and get paid,



knowhatI'msayin?" Hmm yeah, I think I'm with that black



Cause we can both hit the spots, sling drugs and be fat



So we div up the stuff and step off to the spot that



crackheads and dopefiends just love to hang out at



Now after an hour of not even gettin paid



cop shows up, dump the drugs, "Freeze, drug raid!"



I dropped my stuff and stepped off to the left



with a cop on my heels (did you shake him?)



Man yeap, I dipped down some steps and into the sub



Whatever made me think that I could deal drugs?



The cop followed me down I tried to play it smooth



He spotted me - "Freeze!"Time to move



I jumped down on the tracks, he couldn't follow me there



I crossed the tracks and up the other side, yeah



He let loose a buck, I ducked and he missed



I shot back a dead aim he's on the knockout list



I flee cause I'm free up the stairs and I'm mad



The cop snatched my gun and beat me down real bad



First he broke my nose and busted up my glasses



All of this happened to me cuz I'm too cool for classes?



Man, don't ever cut school



Kids I'm tellin ya, don't ever cut school







Down at the cop stop, I thought this can't be



My mom is on her way down and my bail is 30 G's (what?)



She's flippin and she's buggin cause my charge is red



Drug posession, plus shot one cop dead



I'm worried about what's gonna happen to me



I'm the all-time great rhyme maker Shelly D



Yo the judge dropped the hammer gave me life in the slammer



No more tours, no more radio shows magazines or glamour



The judge said, "Son, I don't mean no harm



but I hope your girl can find another date to the prom"



Prison future for now, is unclear and smoky



The only senior (??) will be taken to the pokey



If ya smoke cigarettes, I suggest you bring a stock up



Like Sly Stallone, you're the star of this lock up



My mom is upset, but not as half as me



cause I'm locked up in jail and she's on the streets free



Oh well, my bad, I shouldn'ta been so cool



Had to try to be bold and get suspended from school



So don't ya ever cut school..
