Dead Homiez - Ice Cube (冰块酷八)
Up early in the morning dressed in black
Don't ask why 'Cause I'm down in a suit and tie
They killed a homie that I went to school with
I tell ya life ain't sh*t to fool with
I still hear the screams of his mother
While my ni**a laid dead in the gutter
And it's getting to my temple
Why is that the only time black folks get to ride in a limo
It makes me so mad I want to get my sawed-in
And have some bodies hauled in
But no I pay my respects and I'm through
Hug my crew and maybe shed a tear or two
And I wanna get blitz
Grab my 40 ounce and then I reminisce
About a brother who had to be the one and only
So I dedicate this to my dead homiez
Another homie got murdered on a
Shakedown three gun shots
And his mother is at the funeral
Havin' a nervous breakdown
Two shots hit him in the face
When they blasted two gun shots
A framed picture and a closed casket
A single file line about 50 cars long
All drivin' slow with they lights on
He got a lot of flowers and a big wreath
What good is that when you're six feet deep
I look at that sh*t and gotta think to myself
And thank God for my health
'Cause nobody really ever know
When it's gonna be they family on the front row
So I take everything slow go with the flow
And shut my motherf**kin'
Mouth if I don't know
'Cause that's what Pops told me
But I wish he could have said it to my dead homiez
I remember we painted our names on the wall for fun
Now it's ＂Rest in Peace＂ after every one
Except me but I ain't the one to front
Seems like I'm viewin' a body after every month
Plus I knew him when he was yea big
Pour beer on the curb before I take a swig
But somethin' ain't right
When it's a tragedy that's the
Only time that the family's tight
Lovin' each other in a caring mood
There's lots of people and lots of food
They say ＂Be Strong＂ and you're tryin'
But how strong can you be
When you see your Pops cryin'
So that's why Ice Cube's dressed up
Because the city is so f**kin' messed up
And everybody is so phony
Take a little time to think about your dead homiez
