Alice in 'Hooderland
Drake

Verse 1:
Yo, Alice fell down, straight from the 'burbs to the trap
No teacups here, just dealers and the clap
Queen of Hearts with a tat, made her claim real fast
Talk big, but she ain't ever last, past noon fast
Mad Hatter lookin' mad sketchy, off every line
Smoke and mirrors, junkies slippin', losing time
She's got pockets full of tricks, but not tricks of the trade
Card game, shot callin', but she ain't getting paid
Roll up on the White Rabbit, now he's soundin' dumb
“I'm late, I'm late,” yeah, your time's almost done
Hood claims, stacks of cash, stylin' in Wonderland
Alice, what's your plan? Flip tricks with sleight of hand
Run the game or get run out, street life's a rough play
Keep the red paint off your name or fade away

Chorus:
Alice in this 'Hooderland, you a piece in the game
Street queen, watcha doin'? Steppin' up for the fame
Check your blitz, catch your breath, time to lay down your claim
This ain't no fairy tale, just hustlin' in vain

Verse 2:
In secret tunnels under lavish streets, she creeps
Made a name but can't escape the purps and undercover freaks
Cheshire grin pretending to be an ally, but watch your back
Snake tongues and venomous lies in every back-alley stack
Club nights and bottles, dance through the danger zone
But every high has its low, and she's far from home
Cat and mouse games, time’s up, the Funhouse a cruel jest
No more play, had enough, this kingdom's one cruel jest
Tryna back out, but ain't no simple exit
Feds grabbin' at heels, got a foot in both sex pits
Downward spiral, sanity check left behind
Dreams twisted up like vines, kiss innocence goodbye
Bucks and bling, mean nothin' in a land of mad
Lost her way, map to reality gone bad

Chorus:
Alice in this 'Hooderland, you a piece in the game
Street queen, watcha doin'? Steppin' up for the fame
Check your blitz, catch your breath, time to lay down your claim
This ain't no fairy tale, just hustlin' in vain

Verse 3:
Knights on the move, Kingpin choking on his rule
One-eyed jacks, eyein' stocks, laughin' at her whirlpool
Red Queen's dealt her hand, and it’s blood in the water
Wonderland turn to wasteland, nuthin' come outta slaughter
Catch the crook, book 'em, not so easy 'round here
You build a fantasy life, but what’s real ain’t clear
Now she's in too deep, no climbin' out the rabbit hole
Every step chased by demons, her dreams under parole
Time's slippin', no grippen', corrupted vision's gleam
Ain't no savin' Alice from Wonderland's sick regime
Game over, shuffle up, deck’s always been stacked
No escape, strip her down, queen no match for past

Chorus:
Alice in this 'Hooderland, you a piece in the game
Street queen, watcha doin'? Steppin' up for the fame
Check your blitz, catch your breath, time to lay down your claim
This ain't no fairy tale, just hustlin' in vain
