[Verse:]
2
Late night coolin' with my homies
3
Drinkin' Hennessey and cold brew
4
After smokin', stopped in Oakland
5
Got the munchies for some soul food
6
So we stopped to get a bite to eat
7
At the local bar-b-q
8
It's just another boring Monday
9
And there's nothing else to do
10
Now as we stepped out of the car
11
I heard someone behind me fighting
12
So I turn to look and find out
13
What's the cause of this excitement
14
The brother was a dopefiend
15
And the other was a dopeman
16
And the dope man had an ak
17
Said he'll spray and he's not jokin'
18
Well it seems to be the dopefiend
19
Owed the dope man for his product
20
And he swore if he did not pay
21
He would end up getting shot up
22
Now I could not walk away
23
Cause I got caught up in the scene
24
Wondering what would happen to this
25
Poor and helpless fiend
26
Well my homie, Michael Cooley
27
Said let's go and make our order
28
What's the use in watchin' two men
29
Stand out here fight over quarters
30
While I walked inside the diner
31
And all the Dope Fiends waived to me
32
Heard the sound of several gun shots
33
And I ran outside to see... (What's Going On?)
34
[Chorus:]
35
Another gun shot rings (What's Going On?)
36
Another siren sings (What's Going On?)
37
Another mother cries (Yo what's Going On?)
38
Cause another innocent died (Yo what's Going On?)
39
Another gun shot rings (What's Going On?)
40
Another siren sings (What's Going On?)
41
Another mother cries (Yo what's Going On?)
42
Cause another innocent died
43
[Verse 2:]
44
All the people in the diner
45
Ran outside to see the big show
46
It was just another party
47
For them to see just who they would know
48
But for me I held concern
49
I wanted to see the outcome
50
Would the mother see her son tonight
51
Or would she live her life without one?
52
I made it to the streets I
53
Almost cried right on the spot
54
Not only had the fiend died
55
But a small girl had been shot
56
My heart could take no more
57
I felt a tear roll down my face
58
That was daddy's bullet
59
But she took it in his place
60
[Chorus:]
61
[Verse 3:]
62
Tried to make my way through the crowd
63
So I could go help the baby
64
She could barely speak
65
But she whispered
66
Mister could you please save me
67
So I screamed out, someone help me
68
But I don't think they could hear
69
And if they did, they didn't care
70
Oh how I hated everyone there
71
The baby lie here dying
72
And I wondered what could I do
73
The camera men and newspapers had come
74
To get their interviews
75
To them it's just a story
76
And they can't see the tragedy
77
To them it doesn't matter
78
Cause it ain't it wasn't their family
79
I don't think I'll be back
80
Cause it'll never be the same here
81
So I wipe away the tears
82
And leave the scene the way I came here
83
Though some people say it's crazy
84
And the poor could have been finer
85
I'll never forget, never forget the night
86
At Dopefiend's Diner
87
[Chorus:]
88
Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do... (Repeats until song fades out)
