Open Mic Week 25 : Thugs Cry by @trillex
It's been a while I participated in the contest. This is a tribute to friends I've lost.
...even THUGS do cry
Lyrics
VERSE 1
2012 when McHodz died
I got a call, A nigga gone mehn I swear I cried
Looked up to God, teary eyes, then I asked why
Lord, why do my dawgs Die
I cldnt make it to his burial
Little did I know dat I was heading for anoda funeral
2013, Taiwo's death was so mystical
Those were precious lives Lord, why do they have to go, why do dey have to go
The good die young, the bad dies in old age (I pray to die in old age)
Who are we to question you Lord, we live by your Grace
Yeah, chances lost are Hopes torn out pages
But I lay back to chill out, I got the Rock of Ages
VERSE 2
Life of a druggie, like a bread in the water
Always looking soggy and he has never been a winner
Its a cold world, the story of a born sinner
Need a miracle then serve it up like its another dinner
Damn Im homies with Rodents and Rogues
4 to 5 niggas, my homies hooked up on dope
Busy selling Trams, the pharmacies getting closed
My guy on the corner, his father getting stoked
The mother getting worried by the minute, losing hope
She looking at me thinking that I got her son involved in this mess so be careful what you're reading on that blog
I'm just stuck in my ways getting music in my blood
My brother, writing raps no be joke (no be joke)
I keep on writing hoping the flows will get me some dough
Coz I'm broke but this openmic be steeming up a show
...And Father's cry,but that something you never know.
You were groovin' before you were spitting the lyrics. Nice!
