Everybody was outside like if
the world was gonna end

FIRE...THEN I WENT BACK
TO MY BUILDING AND ATE MY PIZZA
I KNEW THAT THE TWO GUYS WERE
GOING TO JAIL FOR A WHILE
I DON'T SELL IT FOR
THE BASKETBALL TEAM
I KNEW THIS WAS GOING TO HAPPEN
BUT I WAS PRAYING IT WOULDN'T
I DON'T KNOW. I GUESS
WE WERE JUST CURIOUS.
EVERYBODY WAS ROLLING DEEP WITH THEIR FRIENDS
REMINDED ME OF THE WARS BETWEEN COWBOYS
But the ambulance came mad late
The wonderful smell of barbecue
It was hot, it was fire like crazy
He got his body through, but not his head
Yes I was hungry but it really
didn't matter at this point
Yo I fell out laughing
We all ran after him throwing
bricks and bottles at him
He knew my mommy was dangerous, yo.
She fights like a dude.
The police were too late
The trees bloom petunias and
violets in the spring. But
in the summer they die.
That’s when the Dominican taxi drivers felt
sad about it and they took out bats
from the back of the trunk
The other girl came out smart,
so my friend threw the first hit
Where I lived was in the middle
of the Blood and Crip wars
The worst of things happen in the Bronx
Then she took they basketball
Baaa-teee-riiiiiii waaaan-daaa-laaar
Josue was planning on proposing
to Johnny in front of everybody
Life can be short or long: you decide
Inspired by my teachers
Emotions make you the person you are
When Papi from the store came out
they even put him in the water
