Hello? what? (Hello?) I can't hear (I GOT IT! HANG UP!)
|
Yo speak louder I can't hear
|
|
[Zaakir]
|
(Yo Ak) Yo It's me Zaakir!
|
I was sittin at the television feelin' disturbed
|
Hey yo, I just got the word, off Tigram and 83rd
|
Some cat that got clapped, (gangster rapper?)
|
Perhaps, But I was lookin at the face of one particular cat
|
Now I done seen him before, (Can you remember where at?)
|
Well it was either at the liquor store or laundry mat
|
Or at a party and shit, ?or drive through of a quickie split?
|
But the fellas her ran wit, they no longer ex-- (yo, dude peep this)
|
|
[Akil]
|
Yo I know dude, I been knowin him all my life
|
Ever since I was young I used to see him shootin' dice
|
On occasion i would see him once or twice
|
With all types, many different walks of life
|
He tried to keep in touch, but i knew what was up
|
Every time he came around and showed his face I ducked
|
In the mid-eighties, the nigga went crazy
|
He had alot of ladies selling they babies, the nigga was shady
|
But he had alot of friends that he would visit on the weekends
|
Thrill seekin, influenced by his teachings
|
My daddy knew him, yo, he met him at a hotel
|
My homeboy Johnny, kicked it with him in a jail cell
|
Alot of people met him with a female
|
Doing real well, connected with the drug sales
|
The rich and the poor, for better or worse
|
The last and the first, walked the earth, but can't avoid his turf
|
And it hurts my brain, he's drivin me insane
|
It's a shame I can't remember his name
|
I think 2na know dude, Soup, i aint tryin ta be dude
|
But my wife just cooked, im bout to grab up some food
|
|
[Zaakir]

Patrollin the hood, lookin for trouble

Lurkin with speed, pulled the strap, and was hurtin to squeeze

Threw it in reverse and we fleed
