[00:13.418] Black car on a backstreet, little me asleep on the back seat
[00:17.439] Lulled by street lamps and the blackness in between
[00:20.277] My parents' argument picking up speed
[00:22.562] In and out of bad dreams
[00:24.203] That's what they said when she saw him dead in the road
[00:26.568] Now I know it was the shadow of them black wings
[00:29.177] Unmarked followed us for ten blocks
[00:31.165] Nigga said if they try to make the stop, I'm fleein'
[00:33.981] Brake lights bright red, lit his face like a demon
[00:37.002] We took a left, they went straight, we all laughed but I seen it
[00:40.405] Some had the trap in the trunk of the bimmer
[00:42.848] Some kept thе cracks up front so they could eat 'em
[00:45.043] Somе went through the windshield, some went to the precinct
[00:47.325] Some got yapped out driver's seats in parking lots and left bleedin'
[00:51.367] Some things only make sense in their time
[00:53.839] I paid a hundred for the whip, so when police took it,
[00:56.436] I never paid no never mind
[00:58.298] Easy come
[00:58.996]
[01:00.216] From Mandeville to Sligoville, coffin runnin' around
[01:04.222] Upsettin', upsettin', upsettin' the town
[01:07.819] From Mandeville to Sligoville, coffin runnin' around
[01:11.285] Upsettin', upsettin', upsettin' the town
[01:14.658] From Mandeville to Sligoville, coffin runnin' around
[01:18.009] Upsettin', upsettin', upsettin' the town
[01:20.974]
[01:21.467] They lookin' for the vehicle
[01:22.637] Took the plates off, put it in his Granny back yard
[01:25.442] Told her somethin' believable
[01:26.800] He got killed, it was still there for a year or two
[01:29.939] I'd seen it drivin' through
[01:31.518] Granny on the stoop, she never waved back
[01:33.861] High grass, four flats forward with the front passenger door mismatched
[01:37.966] Blacked out truck with the rifle rack
[01:39.998] The hunter checks his traps
[01:41.779] Bait car with the kill switch
[01:43.487] Gingerbread house full of abused kids
[01:45.523] Inflatable sky dancer said "No money down"
[01:48.264] Every sign said, "If you lived here, you'd be home now"
[01:51.368] (... Strawberry on deck, Strawberry already with three hits tonight!)
[01:53.699] Asleep at the wheel
[01:54.737] Gently over the guardrail, flipped heads or tails
[01:57.704] One died, she survived
[01:59.274] Asked why, I replied, "God's not real"
[02:01.487] Ducked the question
[02:02.822] In a hospital room full of flowers, I plucked the best one
[02:05.999] In a world full of cowards, it's bound to be tension
[02:08.819]
[02:09.252] [?] behind on [?] with a single,
[02:11.553] he got behind on Butler and lined-out, it's now 2-0
[02:15.120] Daniels' with a game situation here
[02:17.554] If he can work his way aboard,
[02:18.924] then the load falls once again on Daryl Strawberry
[02:23.187] As he has a chance to play hero once again for the Dodgers
[02:27.748] But it's up to Daniels at this point
[02:31.150]
[02:39.874] **** 23 and Me, mom's an inventor
[02:42.438] From our DNA to Cambridge, Mass
[02:44.864] Maafe, that's Skippy and poulet
[02:46.892] Dispatched from Venice, [?] Kilgari
[02:50.402] Tyrant that [?] Mali and a Bamako property
[02:53.735] Jump to imperial Benin, fifteenth century, trade routes heavy
[02:58.523] Break the bank like Musa, mint the gold, truth aplenty
[03:02.506] We still feed on dreams in need of remedy
[03:05.145] Trauma not an enemy
[03:06.326] Perverse German woodcuts could've been Dürer
