The Great Evaporation

Lyrics

Sometimes you get caught up wonderin', where the time goes Where your people went, how you lost 'em Fuck that If I told you I had sold coke bags to get a new coach bag Or how the neighborhood all knew my old man I spent everyday tryna be like that 'til I realized, the cuffs are cuttin' on my hands You cast off, but you talk, like you shit cement That's off, it's what separates the boys vers' men As a youngin', I was runnin' with the d-boys then What you call crimi-nahls, I would call my friends We had, six o-ds whilе we sip, Olde-E Thinking God damn, this becamе a morbid trend We had more in the morgues, than the halls at school, awful Most of 'em [?] us too Unlawful, think you broke all the rules? [?], I suh-pose these is laws to youth If you take a loaf of bread it would cost you bread If you took somebody's tooth, it would cost a tooth So this for all the folks that I lost to [?] If I make it to the sky, please walk me through Hope I can retire with a lofty view I drift off in these thoughts of you [Chorus] [Verse] Uh Let it rain, let it rain, let it pour Dear God, watch us as we walk to the store I heard too many stories 'bout the richest and the poor I've heard too many stories 'bout the milk hittin' the floor Walkin' out the door, of the corner store Broad daylight, broad day-wars Pockets gettin' thinner, so cats be gettin' lost [?] the beginners, gangstas takin' charge It's like, every block, another flag, another story Every other street another stoag' another forty Valentine, Colt 45, Olde-E Marlboro, Newport, medicate slowly People's livin' in conditions where the kitchens are a way to heat the house up while the boilers in remission, It's The Great Evaporation Contrast of nations We worry 'bout our next check, they worry 'bout inflation [Chorus]
