Zaire

[Verse 1: billy woods]

Quantum leap 'til you trip over your own feet

Still gon' end the same

But don't take my word for it, run Forrest run Forrest

Gun owner intrusive thoughts to eat your own gun, naueseous

Meal prepping, I might fix y'all a couple few portion

Dad's so bad the son cautious to come up

Pitch black, waiting on that school bus in the morning

Waiting for them headlamps to round the corner like Charon's boat

I wore the night terrors like a coat

Gaberdine in the rain, three story brownstone

Whole block watch the fire rage

Lord have mercy on whatever remainеd

Cavorting in the flame, I'm courting her

Romе wasn't built in a day

Dominatrix, she built the pyramids with slaves

They only call me when conditions is grave

The sea retreated as far as the eye can see from my wave

Wild animals grow to love they cage

Cannibal tours, the tourist's gnawing for days

Marveling at the flavor

[Verse 2: billy woods]

Zooted and booted in bodega

Browsing Black & Milds

Ironed and pressed out for the two-block walk from public housing

He do it for him, pay you no mind

You should do the same, how he advise

The few that ask, get your own house in order

By the door he keep a jar full of nickels, dimes, quarters

By the bed he keep a bible open and can most definitely quote it

In reply to various dumb nigga notions

To his mother a nigga devoted

Even in death he set two places for dinner

Even if it's Chinese take away, he come home

And eat off of a plate, not with you sinners

Cold milk before bed, then he lay his head but tonight

It's a knock at the door (tonight)

It's gunshots in the hall

It's a crocodile waddlin' along the foor

Swollen with meat

It's a crack in the wall that widens slightly

Every time he at the store or making something to eat

Dreams and children hide in father's belt while he sleep

Drunk, when he woke he beat 'em anyway

Grunting with every punch
