(feat. J-Live) |
|
I ever tell you 'bout the time I had to solve this case |
|
Some crab motherfuckers straight invading my space |
|
It was approximately 8:47 pm |
|
I was on my way home coming back from the gym |
|
My muscles kind of aching |
|
They felt rigid and stiff |
|
But my mind was at ease from this Coltrane riff |
|
Playing loud at a shop right on Fulton and Troop |
|
Till a Jeep drowned it out with Xzibit and Snoop |
|
As I get closer to the heazy, baby, |
|
Certain parts of my body started acting crazy |
|
My ears got to twitching, and my right hand shook |
|
I had a sudden need for speed, so I decided to book |
|
As I arrived on my block to see a bunch of kids |
|
Scoping out my building, |
|
Noticing the door wide open |
|
I jetted up the stairs, past signs of forced entry, |
|
Expecting to see my humble abode stripped empty |
|
Yo, hell no! |
|
Yo, my trip from the front door |
|
To the second floor |
|
Had me feeling so alone, embarrassed, and insecure |
|
My worldly possessions that I cherished and prized |
|
Flashed in a matter of seconds before my eyes |
|
But not photographic, more like alpha-numeric, |
|
You know, VCR, TV, Laptop, Z3, |
|
VS, MP, LP, CDs, |
|
RL, P&B, N-I-K-E |
|
Not to mention USA or RC3C |
|
To open up in DC |
|
For Run-DMC |
|
It's gotta be a nightmare, |
|
Somebody pinch me! |
|
But up the stairs I see, |
|
My 10-speed GT |
|
Right where I left it, rather bizarre |
|
Still felt violated; my apartment door was ajar |
|
As I stormed in thinking it's about to be on, |
|
The window was wide open... but nothing was gone! |
|
As I dashed to the edge, |
|
Held my head past the ledge |
|
I seen two hooded figures flipping over a fence |
|
They was way beyond capture, so I took a step back |
|
So I could figure this shit out cause it was getting' intense |
|
The computer was on, file cabinets wide open |
|
Bookshelves was tipped over; they searched, but ain't steal |
|
Wait a minute! This picture from my built-in safe |
|
Was slightly tilted to the side, I was beginning to feel |
|
The same tingling in my ears and hands |
|
Everything else in the house was there, so work with me one time |
|
But my instincts failed me not, the safe was blown wide-open, |
|
They stolen my priceless book of rhymes! |
|
Oh, hell no! |
|
Ah, shit! I been hit! Elizabeth, this is the big one |
|
Fuck it, these niggers got me pulling out my big guns |
|
So be it! They want it, they got it, but can't have it |
|
Dagnabit! The last thing I needed was static! |
|
But I got a briefcase for just such an occasion |
|
So I grabbed it, |
|
Jetted downstairs, |
|
Hailed a cab |
|
I knew the shit was gonna happen, |
|
I was getting too nice |
|
From the briefcase I pulled out a homing device |
|
Three times better than Lo-Jack |
|
These MCs is so wack |
|
And now they gotta resort |
|
To stealing my text?! |
|
As I fixed on their position |
|
For my intercept mission, |
|
The cabbie was feather-footed, it was getting me vexed |
|
As we headed towards Jersey, the signal got stronger, |
|
Even in the tunnel I was right on they tail |
|
A green Volkswagon had the nerve to blast Braggin' [???] |
|
A dead giveaway, now watch justice prevail |
|
I told the cabbie, Get closer, but he had no heart |
|
Next thing I know we was, like, five blocks apart |
|
But they was headed for the airport, the getaway plane |
|
Traffic was getting thick, so I got out and ran |
|
Followed the signal all the way to this private hangar |
|
These niggers want to rendezvous with a Learjet |
|
I drove a luggage cart to block the runway, to no avail, |
|
They pulled out just in time but I'm not done yet |
|
Yo, watch this! |
|
You think you're getting away, thieves? I know every rhyme in that |
|
Book. You got five seconds to turn around. It's like that? Aight then! |
|
If I can't have it, no one can! (Explosion) |
