lyrics

We must be sadomasochistic the way we love the pain!
Sucka's for the suffering. It's written on my gold chain.
They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
What it is...
Woke up this morning, 'fo my Cadillac machine. Gotta leave the city, don't you know what I mean? Cus the devil said "Gemini, Gemini, give me all your sin. I'll give you all the love that you don't get from your friends"
But this kinda love, it doesn't come cheap and I gotta leave the city cus i'm in too deep.
They say the road to heal is paved with good intentions.
What it is...
Its hard to be good, Heaven help me if you could!
We must be sadomasochistic, trade the lovin' for the pain!
Glutton's for the punishment, it's written on my gold chain.
They say the road to hell is paved with good intentions.
What it is...
It's hard to be good, Heaven help me if you could cus the devil knows my name he trying to repossess my Thang!
What it is...
