1
I once knew a nigga whose real name was William
2
His primary concern, was making a million
3
Being the illest hustler, that the world ever seen
4
He used to fuck movie stars and sniff coke in his dreams
5
A corrupted young mind, at the age of thirteen
6
Nigga never had a father and his mom was a fiend
7
She put the pipe down, but every year she was sober
8
Her sons heart simultaneously grew colder
9
He started hanging out selling bags in the projects
10
Checking the young chicks, looking for hit and run prospects
11
He was fascinated by material objects
12
But he understood money never bought respect
13
He build a reputation 'cause he could hustle and steal
14
But got locked once and didn't hesitate to squeal
15
So criminals he chilled with didn't think he was real
16
You see me and niggas like this have never been equal
17
I don't project my insecurities at other people
18
He fiended for props like addicts with pipes and needles
19
So he felt he had to prove to everyone he was evil
20
A feeble-minded young man with infinite potential
21
The product of a ghetto breed capitalistic mental
22
Coincidentally dropped out of school to sell weed
23
Dancing with the devil, smoked until his eyes would bleed
24
But he was sick of selling trees and gave in to his greed
25
Everyone trying to be trife never face the consequences
26
You probably only did a month for minor offenses
27
Ask a nigga doing life if he had another chance
28
But then again there's always the wicked that knew in advance
29
Dance forever with the devil on a cold cell block
30
But that's what happens when you rape, murder and sell rock
31
Devils used to be gods, angels that fell from the top
32
There's no diversity because we're burning in the melting pot
33
So Billy started robbing niggas, anything he could do
34
To get his respect back, in the eyes of his crew
35
Starting fights over little shit, up on the block
36
Stepped up to selling mothers and brothers the crack rock
37
Working overtime for making money for the crack spot
38
Hit the jackpot and wanted to move up to cocaine
39
fulfilling the Scarface fantasy stuck in his brain
40
Tired of the block niggas treating him the same
41
He wanted to be major like the cut throats and the thugs
42
But when he tried to step to 'em, niggas showed him no love
43
They told him any motherfucking coward can sell drugs
44
Any bitch nigga with a gun, can bust slugs
45
Any nigga with a red shirt can front like a blood
46
Even Puffy smoked a motherfucker up in a club
47
But only a real thug can stab someone till they die
48
Standing in front of them, starring straight into their eyes
49
Billy realized that these men were well guarded
50
And they wanted to test him, before business started
51
Suggested raping a bitch to prove he was cold hearted
52
So now he had a choice between going back to his life
53
Or making money with made men, up in the cyph'
54
His dreams about cars and ice, made him agree
55
A hardcore nigga is all he ever wanted to be
56
And so he met them Friday night at a quarter to three
57
Everyone trying to be trife never face the consequences
58
You probably only did a month for minor offenses
59
Ask a nigga doing life if he had another chance
60
But then again there's always the wicked that knew in advance
61
Dance forever with the devil on a cold cell block
62
But that's what happens when you rape, murder and sell rock
63
Devils used to be gods, angels that fell from the top
64
There's no diversity because we're burning in the melting pot
65
They drove around the projects slow while it was raining
66
Smoking blunts, drinking and joking for entertainment
67
Until they saw a woman on the street walking alone
68
Three in the morning, coming back from work, on her way home
69
And so they quietly got out the car and followed her
70
Walking through the projects, the darkness swallowed her
71
They wrapped her shirt around her head and knocked her onto the floor
72
This is it kid now you got your chance to be raw
73
So Billy oaked her up and grabbed the chick by the hair
74
And dragged her into a lobby that had nobody there
75
She struggled hard but they forced her to go up the stairs
76
They got to the roof and then held her down on the ground
77
Screaming shut the fuck up and stop moving around
78
The shirt covered her face, but she screamed and clawed
79
So Billy stomped on the bitch, until he had broken her jaw
80
The dirty bastards knew exactly what they were doing
81
They kicked her until they cracked her ribs and she stopped moving
82
Blood leaking through the cloth, she cried silently
83
And then they all proceeded to rape her violently
84
Billy was made to go first, but each of them took a turn
85
Ripping her up, and choking her until her throat burned
86
A broken jaw mumbled for guards but they weren't concerned
87
When they were done and she was lying bloody, broken and bruised
88
One of them niggas pulled out a brand new twenty-two
89
They told him that she was a witness of what she'd gone through
90
And if he killed her he was guaranteed a spot in the crew
91
He thought about it for a minute, she was practically dead
92
And so he leaned over and put the gun right to her head
93
I'm falling and I can't turn back
94
I'm falling and I can't turn back
95
Right before he pulled the trigger, and ended her life
96
He thought about the cocaine with the platinum and ice
97
And he felt strong standing along with his new brothers
98
Cocked the gat to her head, and pulled back the shirt cover
99
But what he saw made him start to cringe and stutter
100
Cause he was starring into the eyes of his own mother
101
She looked back at him and cried, cause he had forsaken her
102
She cried more painfully, than when they were raping her
103
His whole world stopped, he couldn't even contemplate
104
His corruption had successfully changed his fate
105
And he remembered how his mom used to come home late
106
Working hard for nothing, cause now what was he worth
107
He turned away from the woman that had once given him birth
108
And crying out to the sky cause he was lonely and scared
109
But only the devil responded, cause god wasn't there
110
And right then he knew what it was to be empty and cold
111
And so he jumped off the roof and died with no soul
112
They say death takes you to a better place but I doubt it
113
After that they killed his mother, and never spoke about it
114
And listen cause the story that I'm telling is true
115
Cause I was there with Billy Jacobs and I raped his mom too
116
And now the devil follows me everywhere that I go
117
In fact I'm sure he's standing among one of you at my shows
118
And every street cypher listening to little thugs flow
119
He could be standing right next to you, and you wouldn't know
120
The devil grows inside the hearts of the selfish and wicked
121
White, brown, yellow and black colored is not restricted
122
You have a self destructive destiny when your inflicted
123
And you'll be one of gods children and fell from the top
124
There's no diversity because we're burning in the melting pot
125
So when the devil wants to dance with you, you better say never
126
Because the dance with the devil might last you forever
