Droptop
no beef wit kool cops
balls out
makin it clear
black fist
rising through the white mist
the phoenix can't compare
won't see
D'ee
on the ground
brotha I'm up in the air
Shunned the ghetto crab in the barrell mentality
born by the sea
never was a number in the penitentiary
give respect
don't flex
'less you fuckin wit mine
commit a crime
against my fam
gotta do eternal time
Shinin light on roaches
watch 'em scatter from the Killing Floor
blood red
left 4 dead
all traitors who treat the Motherland
like she's an African whore
won't bore
you wit the details
what real brothers do 2 snails
SSS-car-go
C-4 cargo
brain matter
blood splatter
and entrails
ALL HAIL

Momma, watch your baby son
once shunned
like an Obeah chant

as bounty of PI-RATES
trolling the Carribean Sea

checkin the empires of SONGHAY, MALI AND TIMBUKTU
searching the banks of the River Niger
a provider of clues

MY WET NURSE
from her belly I was torn
scorned
as 3/5ths

ghost face killas came riding on white sails
still I survived
