VERSE 1
[The way she walks is scripted and taught
Don't give her an eye or she'll sniper your mind
You can see by her hands that she's been there before,
She lifts up her glass as if to bring down the mass]
all the above miles uses several different effects that im a bit uncertain of so if
has an idea of what they are correct me plz :)
but playing along with the melody still works its the same as the second verse (see below)
Only the truth she reckons she holds.
