Mother-stay out of that white neighborhood boy

none of those folks like our kind

Ty-I promise mom

Ty's friend-come on Ty

 

HERE WE GO

Now once upon a time when hip hop had to rhyme

there were three little boys that wrote some lines

one of them was named Biggie and one was named Pac

and the third one was a slim boy that could spit nonstop

See Marshall grew up inside of a different kinda hood

till one night Ty came running with a gun in his hand

now instead of calling the police, he helped out the kid

He gave him a meal to eat while he hid from the pigs

Ty then told Marshall that he could still hear him yell

Marshall told lil Ty keep running so he don't go to jail

see Ty just witnessed his best friend get shot down

after he just held a gun to a pregnant women's head

and Ty couldn't do it, so he fled as the police fired lead

and now that pregnant women was just found dead

and a bad cop placed his misfired shot on that kid

he had just dropped the gun that held his fingerprints

they found his friend with drugs on him in a bit of cash

the cops kept all the money and they smoked the grass

told there department, the kid tried to shoot there ass

now sirens and going off because the mayors wife is dead

and the mayor has this huge grudge against Africans

plus he owns all the law so he just wants the kid killed

He tells his swine start lookin but no innocent blood spilled

now Marshall stays calm and hands the kid his wheels

tells him to take the back road, make a right near a field

head north till you hit the border and don't stop, you hear

the kid says yes Marshall but what about my parents?

I'll talk to them afterwards when I get your shit handled

he throws the kid his keys as the boy drives out of sight

Marshall begins to write a letter that gets torn off with time

about a kid that made a mistake that destroyed his life

he keeps writing onward till he hears a knock outside

a policeman standing with a badge, looking 5 foot 9

say's he's been looking for a kid that just shot his wife

Marshall keeps cool and says, your wasting your time

your on the wrong side of the tracks so goodnight

the policemen says bye as he gets back in his ride

he had lost the kids entire trail that cold summer night

and Marshall smiles as he lays down to free his mind

now Ty has a vehicle of his own with about fifty bucks

almost hits a truck that's near the very end of the road

and just when Ty got out of sight, he had this thought

and this was the reason that he ended up getting shot

he decided to stop and try to rob this store for cash

the store belonged to a black guy named white

who shot Ty with a shotgun for stealing a five

and this one goes to show you both sides

about a small child that's enticed by crime

and the next day Marshall looked at the news

as he heard a siren outside, his face turns blue

Ty's parents find out and cry themselves to sleep
