SALT Songtext
von Cal Scruby

Followed my thoughts and dreams and felt like I never accomplished things
Only goal I ever really had was just to give me a shot in the league
Looking at friends as competition if you not on my team
Number-checking like a statistician when I′m not in the lead
All my decisions are habit-driven tryna get the machine to turn off
I can see a cinematic vision but they blocking the scene like the cops
In a vault behind a closed door with a lock and a key is a box
That's where I′m keeping the secret ingredient
That's where I'm keeping the sauce


Shit ain′t sweet
Shit ain′t sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
Shit ain′t sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain′t sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain′t sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain′t sweet
Shit ain′t sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt

(Don't think it′s sweet)
You know that shit ain't sweet
You know that shit ain′t sweet

All of that whining and bitching
I told you to shut up respectfully
You should be minding your business
But you couldn't do it professionally
I write it record it and mix it
It′s sorta like whipping a recipe
So when I get in the kitchen
You know I'll be cheffing a specialty


I'm in my element
Ggetting jiggy with her gelatin
It′s not an album it′s a cookbook
It should top the Times Best Seller List
They wonder how I'm still hungry like I′m playing power forward for the Pelicans
Five years in Columbus but you know the white boy is not settling
The white boy got soul too where'd the white boy get melanin?
You can′t name one white boy this white boy's not better than
Not even Eminem okay maybe Eminem
But then again I mean the old Eminem no later than 2010

Yeah
I′m cooking like Emeril Lagasse
They wanna look like me sound like me call em my offspring
Y'all like some rubber chicken Rick Ross wings not even saucy
I might go double-dip em in a Frosty cuz y'all so God damn salty

Shit ain′t sweet
Shit ain′t sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
Shit ain′t sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain′t sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain′t sweet
Shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
Shit ain't sweet
Shit ain′t sweet
Shit ain′t sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt

You know that shit ain't sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
(Don′t think it's sweet)
You know that shit ain′t sweet
Sugar look a lot like salt
