pay them back

brother ali

blood on beats

tears have been shed

lives have been lost

blood has been spilled

blood on beats

damn

look at em sittin there

cats missin their chance

pissin their pants for opportunities and disappear into a bar stool

pardon you for thinkin i forgot about

the way that children act when the stars come out

it would be too much like right for them to tune up their sight and then

pursue something tight within

the blue ugly life they're in

liked your grimace but i must admit it's been a while

since my outer adult disciplined your inner child

i've taught you the limits now when i crack your slumber

i expect you to say

thank you sir
