I mean it's sometimes friends become Family Sometimes family become enemies See she was a friend of the family Like a sister or a daughter is what You would call her And her father died for Allah And she took her shahadah By product lifting her god up Her sister was Beanie And my brother was her lover When ever she seen me I was up under my mother Taneisha my cousin But they were close enough To joke with us And you knew you was good if you Broke it up and smoked a dutch I'm talking 5 or 6 when describing This in Stuyvesant By the time I was 10 I'm in Carolina tryna blend She came to see me By the heater watching TV and Her watching my niece and me Peacefully was a recent thing But we wasn't concerned with who She was serving the beast or king Showered her baby We were the people That she really loved I would embrace her When I seen her we would really hug She was a diamond Assigned for a different time When my mother's mother passed Death decided to align Fast forward to 1996 March 20th It's my sister Michelle's birthday He's up stairs having an argument With Jameelah And Tempers get the best of them And the next thing you know Shot licked off And my brothers gotten picked off Yes it was Meelah She don't know what happen It just flicked off Twon on the floor Bleeding looking weird And she scared My brother just had a son And she thinking bout the kids Her daughter was 2 then She was tryna be a student And thinking bout moving Now it's over cause she's old enough To do federal time In a maximum facility To point blank range Out of the chamber Was killing thee entire family This wasn't premeditated it was Self defense Can't call it but it was manslaughter Prayer and mourning Is what you seen on the scene Out of body experience she thought It was a dream Suicidal thoughts In the moment couldn't own it Was a petty argument That murdered her opponent She fell to the darkness Her whole life would change She lit a stogg on the stop And told the truth when they came And one life was lost And that life wasn't coming back What do we do now She went to the precinct And from the precinct to the cell And she was convicted I mean convicted as hell The family was guilty And still blaming themselves Like how could this happen And what about Michelle This some kind of birthday She lost her little brother The gun in the first place It wasn't hers it was a cousin's The family was grieving And they stayed angry for years And death kept on creeping up and Bring out the tears They were disconnected If you came around you could feel it The family's now infected by A whole different spirit And I was the little brother that was Still under his mother Tryna survive the trauma that was Trapped up in his momma The rain came Soon as the pain came And it wouldn't stop Death got aquatinted And made change we couldn't block Grace afforded her less than 10 In the banger After 20 years I called Jameelah and forgave her I wasn't gone And plus I wasn't gone go to school That day But Michelle was like Cause Michelle She wasn't She wouldn't give me car fare To go to school so I um Twon gave me car fare To go to school Or whatever and um You know when I was there In school That night before Trina Brought us a old picture of Twon And you know That night that it happened I had a dream That um police was running through The running up the stairs Running through the house Up the stairs And Antoine was on the couch With a white sheet over his head And um you know I had that dream the night before It happened And that's exactly what happened the Next day
