Homicide

(Intro) Yeah... It’s deeper than the streets this time... This one’s about family... Deva... --- (Verse 1) He fifteen, she nine, growin’ up with nothin’ but pain, Mama drunk every night, can’t remember their names. No food on the table, just bottles and fights, He the man of the house, tryna make things right. Lights off, cold nights, lil sis cryin’ in fear, He said, “Don’t worry, I’ma get us outta here.” But the streets don’t love, they just take and hide, And his hunger turned dark — turned into homicide. --- (Hook) Homicide... in his heart, in his mind, He just wanted peace but the devil made him blind. Told his lil sis, “Close your eyes, don’t cry,” Next thing you know — somebody had to die. (Yeah...) Homicide... Bloodline crossed that night. --- (Verse 2) His cousin had money, big house, no stress, While he sleepin’ on floors, feelin’ worthless. He said, “If I take his bag, we gon’ live good,” Didn’t plan the murder — but the trigger felt good. One shot, one scream, cousin hit the floor, He grabbed the cash fast, then he ran out the door. Thought he made it out, thought life gon’ change, But the cousin was blood to a gang with a name. They found out quick, and they wanted revenge, He hid his lil sis, said “Stay ‘til the end.” But revenge don’t miss, and hate don’t sleep, They caught the lil girl playin’ out in the street. --- (Hook) Homicide... in his heart, in his mind, He just wanted peace but the devil made him blind. Told his lil sis, “Close your eyes, don’t cry,” Next thing you know — somebody had to die. (Yeah...) Homicide... Bloodline crossed that night. --- (Verse 3 – The Pain) He came home, saw red on the floor, Teddy bear broke, lil shoes by the door. He screamed so loud, lost his breath, lost his soul, That’s the day the pain took full control. He loaded the gun with a tear in his eye, No fear left, just the will to die. He said, “If it’s me or them, we all gon’ ride,” Then he whispered one word — “Homicide.” --- (Outro) Now the hood still tellin’ that story today, About the boy who lost it all in a single day. No heroes, no glory, no peace to find, Just pain... And a bloodline homicide.
