Criminal - Earl St. Clair

Album: My Name Is Earl EP
genre: R&B / Soul

I’ve spent time loving
Things that I don’t love no more
Long time coming
I don’t wanna wait anymore
Always rushing
Just so I get left behind
Always cussing
That’s just me speaking my mind
I can’t stop complaining
Everything just gets on my nerves
Always raining
What’s going on in my world
I’m so impatient
I can’t wait til it’s my turn
So close to breaking
For all these lessons I learned

I want what I want
And I need it right now
If you don’t give it it up
Imma take it with a smile
I don’t wanna be a criminal
I don’t wanna be a criminal
I don’t wanna be a criminal
I don’t wanna be a criminal

I don’t wanna be a criminal
Take em back

I ain’t done talking
I think that you gone hear me today
I’m done chasing
All them carrots that you place in my face
What was you bagging
You must think that I’m blind or I’m dumb
What was you drinking
Tried to play me like you
Fresh out of patience
I think I waited just long enough
Now it’s time to take it
I told you that I need all I want
Now I’m back complaining
Take a look at what you got done
Done, done, done, done

I don’t wanna be a criminal
I don’t wanna be a criminal
I don’t wanna be a criminal

I’m gone take it, take it, take it
I’m gone take it, take it
Take it baby
Take it, take it, take it, take it, take it, take it
Take it baby
Yea (yea)
Yea (yea)
Yea (yea)
You gotta give it or I’m coming to get it

I want what I want
And I need it right now
I don’t wanna be a criminal
I don’t wanna be a criminal
Oh, I don’t wanna be a criminal
Ah, I don’t wanna be a criminal
I don’t wanna be a criminal
I don’t wanna be a
I don’t wanna be a
I don’t wanna be a
I don’t wanna be a
I don’t wanna be a
I don’t wanna be a
I don’t wanna be a
I don’t wanna be a
I don’t wanna be a criminal
