Dopefiend’s Diner

[Verse] Late night coolin' with my homies Drinkin' Hennessey and cold brew After smokin', stopped in Oakland Got the munchies for some soul food So we stopped to get a bite to eat At the local barbecue It's just another boring Monday And there's nothing else to do Now as we stepped out of the car I heard someone behind me fighting So I turn to look and find out What's the cause of this excitement One brother was a dopefiend And the other was a dope-man And the dope-man had an AK Said he'll spray and he's not jokin' Well it seems to be the dopefiend Owed the dope man for his product And he swore if he did not pay He would end up getting shot up Now I could not walk away 'Cause I got caught up in the scene Wondering what would happen to this Poor and helpless fiend Well my homie, Michael Cooley Said let's go and make our order What's the use in watchin' two men Stand out here fight over quarters While I walked inside the diner And all the dope-fiends waved to me Heard the sound of several gunshots And I ran outside to see All the people in the diner Ran outside to see the big show It was just another party For them to see just who they would know But for me I held concern I wanted to go see the outcome Would the mother have her son tonight Or would she live her life without one? I made it to the streets I Almost cried right on the spot Not only had the fiend died But a small girl had been shot And my heart could take no more I felt a tear roll down my face That was daddy's bullet But she took it in his place I tried to make my way through the crowd So I could go help the baby She could barely speak But she whispered Mister can you please save me So I screamed out, someone help me But I dont think they could hear And if they did, they didn't care Oh how I hated everyone there The baby lie here dying And I wondered what could I do The cameramen and newspapers had come To get their interviews To them it's just a story And they can't see the tragedy To them it doesn't matter 'Cause it ain't, it wasn't their family I don't think I'll be back 'Cause it'll never be the same here So I wipe away the tears And leave the scene the way I came here Though some people say it's crazy And the food could have been finer I'll never forget, never forget the night At Dopefiend's Diner [Outro] Do, do, do, do, do, do, do, do...
