TROUBLE WHEN (w/ Jendor)
(Dirt)
THIS IS THE SONG OF THE OLD PROVERB
SPLATTERED N’ FRAGMENTED BRAIN ON THE CURB
FROM THE POP! POP!
WE THROW IT DOWN IN THE HIPHOP
N’ SPRAY THEM CATS LIKE THE MURALS ON BRICKTOPS
NO NEED FOR A STREETSWEEPER
HEAR THE HIGHHAT? IT’S LIKE MY GAT THE PEACEKEEPER
HIT THUGS WITH SLUGS OF DECIBELS
BRING YOUR WEAPONS TO FIGHT? –CAN’T TEST THESE REBELS

(Jendor)
WATCH YOUR BACK, WHEN CROOKED WACKED BY COP
THEY USIN’ EXCESSIVE FORCE, DROPPIN THESE SOULS ON BLOCKS
KID WAS ONLY 15 LIVING A MAD MAN’S DREAM
ROLLIN IN HIS COUSINS HINDA WHEN HE RAN INTO BEEF
DIDN’T THINK, SAW THEM THUGGIN’ FROM ACROSS THE STREET
TOOK A SPIN AROUND THE CORNER, CAME BACK, DUMPED THE HEAT
ACTING HUNGRY LION, HE WANTS SOMETHIN TO EAT
BREAKING HUMAN BODIES DOWN LIKE WHEN THEY 6 FEET DEEP
TOOK THE BODIES IN THE ALLEY, POURED THE GASOLINE
HE WATCHED THE FLAMES BURNING IN THE REARVIEW, ECHOES AND SILENT SCREAMS
DANGEROUS SCHEMES, HAVE BEEN KNOWN TO TAKE PLACE
HIS LAWYER TELLS HIM TO CLEAN OUT, YOU’LL BE JUST A SAFE FACE
ILLEGAL BUSINESS MAN, TURNIN THESE CRIMES INTO CASH
IT’S JUST ANOTHER CASE, THE BURNIN BRIDGE WON’T LAST
PROSECUTION BREAKS EM DOWN, SO MANY QUESTIONS THEY ASK!

(chorus)
THERE’S GONNA BE TROUBLE WHEN
THE SECOND HAND STRIKES MIDNITE, SHOVELIN’
BURIALS FOR THE LOST SOULS, HUMBLIN’
LEAVIN HEADS ON THE CURB, DRUNK, STUMBLIN’
ALL CAUSE THEY’RE MUMBLIN’

(Dirt)
AY YO! SOME CROOKED STUFF ALWAYS HAPPENS AT NIGHT
WHEN EVERYBODY RETIRES AND THEY TURN OFF THE LIGHTS
BUT NOWADAYS THEY LEARNIN AND MAKIN THE CRIME PAY
NO AGAPE! – ALL FIGHTS GET CARRIED AWAY
AND IT’SA BOLD ASS GANGSTAS’LL SHOOT YOU IN DAYLIGHT
JUST FOR SOMETHIN YOU DIDN’T DO OR SAY RIGHT
GOTTA GUN IN YOUR NECK CAUSE YOU DIDN’T GIVE RESPECT
OR DIDN’T PULL OUT FIRST
NOW FORENSIC EXPERTS
ARE TRYIN TO GATHER EVIDENCE
LOOKIN AT THE BULLET PROJECTILE
WONDERIN HOW IT GOT SO WILD
AND SO QUICK
WE USED TO TAKE IT THE STREET WITH THE FISTS
NOW IT’S BULLETS
USED TO HAVE TO PRACTICE, NOW THEY MAKIN EM AUTOMATIC
THIS IS THE SONG OF THE OLD PROVERB
DECIPHERED IN LAYMENS TERMS
BETTER GET YOUR SOUL RIGHT BEFORE THE GUNFIGHT!

(chorus)
