They stay   Strange ways      Wreak havoc, beep beep it's mad traffic   Sleek and lavish people speaking leaking to the maverick   He see as just another felony drug arrest   Any day could be the one he pick the wrong thug to test      Slug through the vest, shot in the street   For pulling heat on a father whose baby's gotta eat   And when they get hungry, it ain't shit funny   Paid to interfere with how a brother get his money      Now, who's the real thugs, killers and gangsters?   Set the revolution, let the things bust and thank us   When the smoke clear, you can see the sky again   There will be the chopped off heads of Leviathan      My friend, they call 'em strangers   Everybody talk to him end up in some danger   They stay strange ways   Can't reform 'em      They pray four times a day, they pray five   Whose ways is strange when it's time to survive   Some will go of they own free will to die   Others take them with you when they blow sky high      What's the difference? All you get is lost children   While abortion shit up behind the desk it costs billions   To blast humans in half, into captured arms   Only one side is allowed to have bombs      It's like making a soldier drop his weapon   Shooting him, and telling him to get to steppin'   Obviously, they came to portion of his fortune   Sounds to me like that old robbery, extortion      They stay   Same game   Strange ways   Ya can't reform 'em      {That Mary was goin' around with an old flame   That burned me up   Because I know he was just feeding her a line   But the guy really spent his money like water}      {I think he was connected, so I left   Outside it was raining cats and dogs   I was feelin' mighty blue and everything looked black   But I carried on}
