Black Thought:
 Now they searchin, the cops lookin for the person...
 Look out the window, peep the high beams
 Medical figures is nursin the kid that got shot
 That pulled the trigga
 I woke up in the darkness at 12:17...to shots and sirenes
 Some innocent ak that would front
 To flip the rock on them at King Street block
 Similar to the blood now floodin his top
 I tried to tell him to stop 'cause yo, it's ghetto red hot
 And see the shorty wop heart blast out his back
 I take a step out the spot, to the point of attack
 It's still crime on the streets
 Damn, I'm thinkin it don't cease, it's no more peace
 Police level increase, but what the f*ck...
 I can't breathe, now what's goin on?
 Illadel-P-H-I-A Hell
 One minute you alive, the next, you're gone
 And hit the L, for the niggaz who fell
 In front of the flat your moms rented
 Bust off into the heavens for the nigga who fell
 And no one expect that from you, 'cause you was timid
 When that could have been prevented
 Funny how this whole thing changed, an off minute
 Fuckin with them cats from outside city limits
 Drownin in a nightmare, stranded Yo, dig it, Panic!!!!!
 None of this is ever granted
