|
I writes rhymes for rehearsal |
|
but first chill |
|
I gotta little story to tell ya |
|
how I almost caught a |
|
bad one |
|
add one to the list of 2,000 and 1 |
|
stupid things to do |
|
I had crew when they stepped at a party |
|
hardly even known I own a Smith & Wesson |
|
but it's resting at home |
|
in a shoe box |
|
they see crews jock |
|
so they wanna step and test the rep I got |
|
I said 'Wait a second, |
|
check inside my coat for a shank' |
|
they must be imagining that I'm money in the bank |
|
they'll get spanked |
|
cause I'm not the nigga |
|
I got bigga brothers waiting in the bushes |
|
to mush kids |
|
I talk when I wanna talk |
|
never silence |
|
violence erupts when I clown ya |
|
catch a beat down ya |
|
cause I never back away from niggas |
|
even if you gotta pistol |
|
I dare ya pull the trigga |
|
but that's suicide |
|
either you must die |
|
or I must |
|
so why bust me |
|
cause I'm guilty |
|
of being in the wrong place |
|
at the wrong time |
|
comin' at ya in the wrong state of mind |
|
I'm now in a hurry |
|
a pow when a flurry |
|
of bullets come speeding by |
|
I needn't die |
|
I gotta make tracks & take back my words |
|
I eat 'em |
|
cause everybody knows I didn't beat 'em... |
|
(CHORUS:) |
|
"Being in the wrong place at the wrong time" |
|
I'm out on the town |
|
I don't frown at people |
|
cause they tend to get offended |
|
and then the heat will |
|
be on my ass |
|
I got class |
|
never out of line, cause |
|
I'm standing here without a nine |
|
pistols I wish will not blast me |
|
TAZ be circlin' corners |
|
lookin' for Warners |
|
you know the Brothers |
|
me & you |
|
we didn't do shit |
|
but we get hassled |
|
because we crew & we rollin' |
|
this is my car |
|
it isn't stollen |
|
I hope you catch a slug |
|
straight in your colon |
|
when ya walkin' the beat |
|
I bet ya gotta sheet hangin' up in ya closet |
|
phuck this law shit |
|
but there is two laws to follow, you know |
|
there is laws of the city |
|
and there's laws of the ghetto |
|
I go to clubs with a smile on my face |
|
just in case niggas look & wanna whyle in the place |
|
cause of jealousy |
|
Del is me |
|
only me |
|
niggas walkin' in poppin' shit |
|
that's who the phonies be |
|
peep it one night |
|
and you'll see it it's quite clear |
|
since we all know now |
|
that's why we're |
|
never in the wrong place @ the wrong time! |
|
(CHORUS) |
|
Damn, I hate cops! |
|
I need to bust they chops |
|
always gettin' props for the niggas they pop |
|
peep, |
|
I smoke weed |
|
get weeded |
|
cause I need it to calm my nerves before a pig get bleeded |
|
I got busted for less than a gram of hash |
|
they wanna cram my ass |
|
in the slammer |
|
that punk po-po |
|
bringin' back hash from Amsterdam is a no-no |
|
I didn't know they would catch me |
|
punk mutt fetch me |
|
stretched me out at Customs |
|
gotta bust 'em |
|
I can't call it |
|
they found it in my wallet |
|
now Customs got me |
|
and I just can't stall it |
|
I wish they would leave me alone |
|
dog lookin' at me like |
|
feed me a bone |
|
he might bite me |
|
very likely |
|
they had to strike me with a fine or time |
|
I said fine |
|
mines was 500 bones |
|
for a gram of hash |
|
my mind was blown |
|
come back to Michigan |
|
so we can pitch again |
|
federal offense |
|
now I better go & convince the judge... |
|
(CHORUS) |
