Now I used to walk with the
gun now I walk like a man
And I walk what I talk
and I walk never ran
And I never say never but I
mean hardly ever
And if shootin' is the solution
then you're not that clever
If you don't know shit then
you still know better
Human life is so precious it
could never be measured
Have you ever had a load of it,
cock back the heat
Poppin' on the next nigga while he
walkin' up the street
Trigger off safety spacin'
an opportunity
These niggaz want to waste me
it ain't nothing new to me
Soon as he walked by
I was ready to bust
But he just posted up like he was
waitin' on the bus
Now I'm all pumped up with
a steroid trigger
Cause most of y'all are easy
just some paranoid niggaz
Used to walk with a gun but I
never did use it
What's the point of holdin'
heat if you ain't gon' shoot it
Stu pid
It was a late night sunset
me and him out
Lookin' at the ladies to come
up on some trim
Everybody wildin' out cause
the summer's about to end
He had the hypnotic he
was missin with the hand
Of that mean green,
laid back with the deep lean on low pro shit
That's how we rolled on the scene
Two girls lookin' probably
in they late teens
But these days you can't tell
but I figured what the hell
So we yell out: Hey girl,
they yell back
Maybe two in the front
maybe two in the back
But they had this dark tag couldn't
see through the black
We roll up ask 'em where
their party at
They just start to laugh and
I knew it was a trap
But I couldn't roll out cause
the strip was so packed
Now I'm lookin at this nigga in
this motherfuckin' hat
Start talkin' that bullshit like we
was on some bullshit
My nigga used to bang but we
ain't know no thug shit
I tried to dismantle it but
you know Los Angeles
This nigga kept talkin' so my boy
had to handle it
He jumped out the Lex snatched
the dude at his hat
I put it in park jumped out to get his back
But as I did that, I heard two shots
I turned to my right and
I see my dude drop
Time stopped,
couldn't believe what I seen
I was struck by reality when
the two girls screamed
I saw his killer stand up put
the gun in his jeans
Saw him wince from the pain
as the heat burned his waist
Then he turned up the block dis
appeared without a trace
I remember his face but what
I remember most
Was when I got to my knees
and held my nigga close
And asked not to leave us in
the name of Christ Jesus
But he's gone and all I got left
is his blood on my sneakers
vengeance was mine
The
day began with
me standin' at his grave with his mother
His old girlfriend,
his two younger brothers
We said a few words faces covered
with tears
How we missed him so much and
we wished he was here
Then his girl said a poem put
some roses on his stone
And we said our goodbyes and
they all went home
I thought I'd use this time for me
and him to be alone
I broke out the Hen' poured
a little out for him
Told him who was gettin' married,
who had went to the pen
How the homie named
his newborn son after him
But as the sun went down
the talk came to an end
So I said a quick prayer, amen
And I shook in the lab plus the well
wrote tracks
And I headed up saw the homie Eyezeer
I asked him what he doin' he
was way out of bounds
That he had a freak that lived
on that side of town
He always kept the heat just
in case it went down
A clown, I rolled down my window
'bout to light a ciga-
Hey! Is that that nigga that,
hey give me the motherfucking gun
Man, drive around the block
and post up for a minute
I hit you on the shirt hit the corner nigga bend it,
splendid
Now with vengeance in my grasp
I couldn't dream of a better day
for me to catch his ass
Slippin while he dippin into
the ride by himself
I slid up behind him in the shadows
hell of stealth
He started to breakin' stuff I said
I didn't want a dime
Remember what you was
doin' last year at this time
He looked into my eyes with both
shock and surprise
When I split his face with the glock right
before he could reply
He cried as I pressed the heat
against his cheek
The I squoze two times for
the homie rest in peace
It was a year to this day
that my best friend died
For weeks I sat alone in my room and cried
And I tried to pretend everything was fine
But my soul couldn't rest until
vengeance was mine
And I thought that's what I wanted
until the problem was confronted
Now I'm haunted by remorse
that I wished I hadn't done it
