|
I woke up in the morning on a regular day
|
I knew my man named R would be around my way
|
I brushed my hair my teeth suddenly I washed my face
|
Then he came over my house with the drug base
|
He kept saying if I take one hit of a pipe
|
I write records to rhyme before the rest of the night
|
I said "R I don't do drugs, or drugs are whack"
|
And ain't that base drug like a drug, CRACK
|
He said no Solo, see base is the shit
|
Girls puff of base, and everybody does it
|
He left off quick and left me the base and the pipe
|
And I thought I write a record a rhyme, before I reach night
|
I said if that's true, but any case
|
I couldn't wait to write my record after I smoke the base
|
He left the crib, I heard the telephone
|
It was my mom telling to watch my sister 'till she gets home
|
I hung up the phone, with no time to waste
|
I put my sister in the kitchen so I could smoke the base
|
It had a funny taste but it didn't taste bad I felt hot
|
That's when I got my pen and pad
|
I wrote a rhyme it was funky
|
I broke in a race
|
'Cause the rhy that I wrote, tried to run off my page
|
I said, "Stop rhyme"
|
Then I grabbbed the rhyme and cut the rhyme
|
That I've seen running in my sight
|
I got a mind was happy when I thought the rhyme was dead
|
Some leaf swong and caught me square on the head
|
I fell on my floor and
|
The rhyme grabbed the knife
|
And cut my little sister
|
I thought it took her life
|
She fell on the floor, blood covered the rug
|
The rhyme was left and to my surprise I knew something was bugged
|
I got on the phone to call the cops, "what should I do?"
|
You'd did the same thing if you was in my shoes
|
As I started talking I seen the rhyme run by
|
And hit me with a can of ravioli in my eye
|
I fell on the floor look and when my vision cleared
|
I looked around the house and see the rhyme disappeared
|
I started to cry I said, "Oh, what would my mom say?"
|
That's when I heard a cop pulled up into the driveway
|
She came in the house she took a look at the place
|
See my sister still bleeding the knife and the base
|
She said, "You cut your sister while you were smoking that shit"
|
I said, "Mom, I didn't cut 'er, the rhyme did it"
|
I knew this was the truth, mom thought it was a lie
|
Some of y'll might even think it's just a Tale From The Crack Side

|
Mom was crying, she ran in shocked
|
Got on the phone, and then she started crying to the cops
|
So I ran out the door, and I looked for
|
The rhyme that cut my sister, who bled on my floor
|
I got in the yard, went out ran out in the street
|
I had to duck behind some trees 'cause I seen the police
|
When they ran in my house and shut up the block
|
I see my girl far coming to my house, and my jaw dropped
|
I said, "Baby stop," but yo she kept on walking
|
I knew pretty soon, the cops would be hawking
|
I never knew the trouble I was really headed for
|
'Till the rhyme appeared again dressed in Santa Claus
|
He said, "Ho Ho Ho baby you look great"
|
And told me dead on my face my girl was gonna get raped
|
Me watching this whole thing it was blowing my mind
|
'Cause my girl was getting raped by this musical rhyme
|
He was sliding in fast my girl cried for help
|
I grabbed a stick, you know and Solo went for self
|
I hit the rhyme in the head and seen him drop
|
But hen the rhyme disappeared and all I seen was cops
|
They were coming for me fast I couldn't escape
|
Besides my girl was on the ground butt-naked yelling and raped
|
One cop gave 'er a coat and said "M.s are you alright?"
|
Another cop said that's the kid that cut his sister with the knife
|
I told them my name, I tried to explain
|
They heard the side of my story
|
They said "Boy you insane" you raped this girl too
|
Come on and just admit it
|
I said, "Man, I didn't rape 'her, the rhyme did it"
|
I knew this was the truth but cops thought it was a lie
|
Some of y'll might even think it just a Tale From The Crack Side
