Temptations Lyrics

It's a cold world, getting hot like hell's fire

It's a crazy world, you will have so much desire

Temptations they be calling me, I don't answer

Temptations kill me slowly

What I need to do, take it one day at a time

And realize that the struggle's in my mind

So I'm telling you, stay focused and just grind

Temptations they will only make you blind

Only make you blind

It's not about the physical, please don't trust individuals

She could look good but very cynical, suck you dry with her tentacles

And leave you pitiful broke, feeling depressed no hope

Your homeboys think you're a joke, I call that murder she wrote

Now it's a cycle you're trapped in, big roller coaster strapped in

Know I'm not overreacting, don't loose grip need traction

Keep it 100, no fraction, don't take nothing on the back end

Know you can't break and you can't bend, like vinegar or oil it won't blend

Sin, it's crazy in this dark land

Honestly, I can't put trust in no man

If I do then I'm lost, temptations they would get me double crossed get me double crossed

It's a cold world, getting hot like hell's fire

It's a crazy world, you would have so much desire

Temptations they be calling me, I don't answer

Temptations kill me slowly

And what I need to do, take it one day at a time

And realize that the struggle's in my mind

So I'm telling you, stay focused and just grind

Temptations they will only make you blind

Only make you blind

You wanna steal, wanna lie, wanna cheat

Over eat, gluttony, jealousy, envy, strip me

Of my emotions, life gets deep like an ocean

No I can't drown, I'm floating, cruise control, I'm coasting

Hoping, never, one day it will get better

This world so cold, need a sweater, people kill for the cheese and the cheddar

Maniac for the mozzarella, bullets rain down need an umbrella

Ella, Ella, ay, ay, don't play

Cause it's real, on the battlefield, no chill

No remorse like a bug on a windshield

Everybody wanna be the king of the hill

Most people in the world never keep it real

All the doctors in the world, still we ain't healed

Street so sick, like a dirty landfill

Get the 19 vaccine, still ill

Somebody ring the alarm and it's not a drill

It's a cold world, getting hot like hell's fire

It's a crazy world, you would have so much desire

Temptations they be calling me, I don't answer

Temptations kill me slowly

And what I need to do, take it one day at a time

And realize that the struggle's in my mind

So I'm telling you, stay focused and just grind

Temptations they will only make you blind

Only make you blind
