Babies

[Chorus: Madame D]

Light is shining, beauty sunshine

Here comes one-time, the ball was so fine

Heat is blazing, the kids were playing

His partner was shady, trying to slave the babies

[Verse 1: Ghostface Killah]

A-yo, they didn't know the cop was crooked

He had blow out in Brooklyn

All this while he let the fiends cook it

The baseheads stirred it up, plus they got to blow it up

Dropped it off in the PJ's and they bigged it up

Then one day, shit jumped off real crazy

The middle of a bathroom they find an old lady

No clothes, half of her tongue, ear missing

The killer had to be mad smart, he wore mittens

Even though her leg was bitten

Crackheads point the finger at Detective Slick Morris Gittins

Paleface cop who done popped the best

And got the chop on his neck from when he knocked Celeste

It was a slug, drug, he pressured everybody on the block

Some niggas know him as the Godson of Gotti

And his black partner, he was scared to speak

He saw how they planted weapons on these kids in the street

He saw like over fifty bodies in like fifty-two weeks

He saw his colleague pick up money before leaving his beat

They call him desk duty, Robocop, younger dudes

Call him Freddy Krugs from the way he walk on the block

[Chorus: Madame D]

Light is shining, beauty sunshine

Here comes one-time, the ball was so fine

Heat is blazing, the kids were playing

His partner was shady, trying to slave the babies

[Verse 2: Raekwon]

Heard the disturbance out my window, oh shit they got my son

Pulled over his Tempo, Brenda dropped the indo

Had her little nephew with her yo she didn't care

They always harassed her, until she blew the captain with a razor

His partner turned red in his waist, maced her, smacked her

With the walkie, yoked her then slammed her on her face

He bugged on her like she was drugged, plugged one in her

The fifth relaxed her like a big thug pistol whipped her

Heard she was dusted, must've been the way they threw the cuffs on her

She broke the shits, went and rushed the kid

Waving her hands, she had a half an axe, all in her tracks

He grabbed her by the hair, she broke his jaw it cracked

More cops arrived, they both bloodied down by the five

Wildest niggas just smiling cause it look live

They gave her forty years in New Orleans, calling me wodie

Shorty was young, by three days had a Grey beard

[Chorus: Madame D]

Light is shining, beauty sunshine

Here comes one-time, the ball was so fine

Heat is blazing, the kids were playing

His partner was shady, trying to slave the babies

[Verse 3: GZA]

You're just worms in the worst part of the apple that's rotten

You squirm and you turn from the right, still plottin

All slimy cause you stay grimy, petty crime-y cat

You sometime me, don't need to remind me about

Living in the core, with the scramblers in front of the store

The bum holding the door, the mugging no one saw

We played ball in the alley where dope was shot raw

And the school they kept flawed, plus the lowest test scores

Small percentage determined to strengthen they position

Transformation from critical to stable condition

But it still be obstacles on niggas that's optical

Watching you like salt-water sharks that's tropical

The money was the root and it's the instinct to make it

With they pockets and fridge naked, many aim to take it

Whether—hold up, set up, stabbing or a wet up

Just to know it was the kid next door fizzucked your head up

Once he fell short, frequently visit the courts

And for some, another way out, is music and sports

That's why I, keep the rhyme just as fly as a shot

That won the championship with just O on the clock

[Chorus: Madame D]

Light is shining, beauty sunshine

Here comes one-time, the ball was so fine

Heat is blazing, the kids were playing

His partner was shady, trying to slave the babies

Light is shining, beauty sunshine

Here comes one-time, the ball was so fine

Heat is blazing, the kids were playing

His partner was shady, trying to slave the babies
