Well, he was smilin' like a vulture as he rolled up the horticulture Ignited it, and said, "I hope the vapors don't insult ya" What I replied denied, but he mixin weed and hop His head was noddin' up and down like he agreed a lot Bored, said, "We need a plot," I comply, "Let's leave the spot" Hopped in the Granada, he's impressed by the beat I got His name is "hay-zoos" but his pimp name is "gee-zus" Slapped a hoe to pieces with his plastic prosthesis "Nigga don't you know that I'm your daddy?" said he This is true, plus he schooled me for my mackin' degree "Never plea, try not to flee, make niggaz pee when you stick around" This man my momma had found taught me to put it down I press the gas to the ground to show that I'm a hound Makin' sure that gear-uppin' sound is heard throughout the town Thirty years ago, Jesus could pull a hoe quick But now he 50 and his belly hangs lower than his dick Philosophy that he spit stuck in my memory chips And now he puttin' in a disk of Gladys Knight and the Pips Then that shit starts to skip, he said, "Somebody musta scratch it" Put the 40 to his lips and poured the contents down the hatchet Now since my adolescence, cause of his pimp lessons smack my woman in the dental just for askin' silly questions Relationship reduction to either rock the box or suction Ain't got no close partners, socially I can't function From the pen he would scribe, on how to survive: "Don't be Microsoft, be Macintosh with a hard drive" Used to tell me all the time to keep a bitch broke Did I mention that my momma was his number one hoe? Clunked the 40 on the flo' and placed his palm on the dash and wheezed out, "C'mon man, make this motherfucker mash!" Ain't gon' mash too fast, cause my tags ain't right Me and Jesus the Pimp in a '79 Granada last night

Oakland do you wanna ride? I can't hear you! Oakland do you wanna me to ride tonight?
[Boots] City lights from far way can make you drop yo' jaw Sparklin' like sequins on a transvestite at Mardi Gras There's beauty in the cracks of the cement When I was five I hopped over them wherever we went to prevent whatever it was that could break my momma's back Little did I know that it would roll up in a Cadillac And matta-fact, she couldn't see him like a cataract And on the track, she went from beautiful to battleaxe And back at home, she would cry into her pillow Vomit in the commode, I was six years old I would crawl into her lap and we would hug and hold Never knew how she was suffering for my food and clothes She asked me what I thought of Jesus when he broke off some bread I said, "He missin' a arm, and he seem like a pee-pee head" She said, "Don't cuss," and my teeth to go brush And get ready for bed, and the toilet to flush With tears in Momma's eyes, I was her everything Before she went out on the stroll [ Find more Lyrics on http://mp3lyrics.org/Fbf ] She'd tuck me into bed and sing:
You're just too beautiful for words (4X)
I see the red and white lights as the ambulance flies Reminds me of midnight in a dopefiend's eyes And my 9-year-old self as paramedics leave Left to ball my eyes out on a neighbor's sleeve To give illustrations that are clear and clean I'll take you two hours back before this scene Early in the morning when the sun starts to creep When the birds start to chirp and crackheads go to sleep Moms was comin' in I heard her keys go clink Wearin' nothin' but pumps, bikini, and fake mink Even though she served, for fifty dollars-a-pop Hardly had enough for rent after Jesus re-copped That day the landlady got her rent befo
