Light is shinin.. beauty sunshine |
|
Here comes one-time.. the ball was so fine |
|
Heat is blazin.. the kids were playin |
|
His partner was shady.. tryin to slave the babies |
|
[ghostface killah] |
|
Aiyyo they didn't know the cop was crooked, he had blow out in brooklyn |
|
All this while he let the fiends cook it |
|
The baseheads stirred it up, plus they got to blow it up |
|
Dropped it off in the pj's and they bigged it up |
|
Then one day, shit jumped off real crazy |
|
The middle of a bathroom they find an old lady |
|
No clothes, half of her tongue, ear missin |
|
The killer had to be mad smart, he wore mittens |
|
Even though her leg was bitten |
|
Crackheads point the finger at detective slick morris gittins |
|
Paleface cop who done popped the desk |
|
And got the chop on his neck from when he knocked celeste |
|
It was a slug, drug, he pressured everybody on the block |
|
Some niggaz know him as the godson of gotti |
|
And his black partner, he was scared to speak |
|
He saw how they planted weapons on these kids in the street |
|
He saw like over fifty bodies in like fifty-two weeks |
|
He saw his colleague pick up money before leavin his beat |
|
They call him desk duty, robocop |
|
Younger dudes call him freddy krugs from the way he walk on the block |
|

|
[raekwon the chef] |
|
Heard the disturbance out the window, oh shit they got my son |
|
Pulled over his tempo, brenda dropped the endo |
|
Had her little nephew with her yo she didn't care |
|
They always harassed her, until she blew the captain with a razor |
|
His partner turned red in his waist, mase done smacked her |
|
With the walkie, yoked her then slammed her on her face |
|
He bugged on her like she was drugged, plugged one in her |
|
The fifth relaxed her like a big thug pistol whipped her |
|
Heard she was dusted, musta been the way they threw the cuffs on her |
|
She broke the shits, went and rushed the kid |
|
Wavin her hands, she had a half an axe, all in her tracks |
|
He grabbed her by the air, she broke his jaw it cracked |
|
More cops arrived, they both bloodied down by the five |
|
Wildest niggaz just smilin cause it look live |
|
They gave her forty years in new orleans, callin me (?) |
|
Shorty was young, by three days had a great bid |
|
[chorus] |
|
[gza] |
|
You're just worms in the worst part of the apple that's rotten |
|
You squirm and you turn from the right, still plottin |
|
All slimy cause you stay grimy, petty crimey cat |
|
You sometime me, don't need to remind me about |
|
Livin in the core, with the scramblers in front of the store |
|
The bum holdin the door, the mugging no one saw |
|
We played ball in the alley where dope was shot raw |
|
And the school they kept flawed, plus the lowest test scores |
|
Small percentage determined to strengthen they position |
|
Transformation from critical to, stable condition |
|
But it still be obstacles on niggaz that's optical |
|
Watchin you like salt-water sharks that's tropical |
|
The money was the root and it's the instinct to make it |
|
With they pockets and fridge naked, many aim to take it |
|
Whether - hold up, set up, stabbin or a wet up |
|
Just to know it was the kid next door fizzucked your head up |
|
Once he fell short, frequently visit the courts |
|
And for some, another way out, is music and sports |
|
That's why i, keep the rhyme just as fly as a shot |
|
That won the championship, with just oh on the clock |
|
[chorus - repeat 2x] |
