A typical Saturday
Shit, felt like no other
Headed to Deep Ellum
To do a show with the fellas
I got my shit together
Packed a leather jacket for the cold weather
Clips for the berretta laying by my umbrella
Shit, I'm down for whatever!
Nowadays, snipers got you in scope
Just ask Lee Harvey Oswald in '63
6th floor, chilling in The Depository Building
He sat alone, zoned waiting on the moment
Knowing that in 3 seconds
The fucking world would go hectic!
What an incredible sound
The President's down
The crowd distracted by the sounds of 3 rounds
Some say 2, but who's counting?
While Lee bouncing out the spot, cuz it's hot
Damn, on the get-a-way he had to drop a cop!
Man, that's deep!
The Dallas Morning News read
""Kennedy Slain on a Dallas Street!""
Elm in fact, Johnson becomes President
In our own backyard
Who would've thought? Damn, who would've thought?

Political figures dying at the pull of a trigger
Who would've figured? They would all get shot down
Jealousy inside, made a Muslim die
Why ask why? They would all get shot down
Malcolm X, JFK to Martin Luther King
All had a dream, but it would all get shot down
Another brick in wall, watch it crumble & fall
Who would've thought? They would all get shot down

[VERSE 1: Scottie Freestyles]
Dreaming of things that never were
And asking""Why not?""
Blood on the kitchen floor
And a nation screaming""My God!""
This is the cause of fighting
Dying here for the world to see
Shots from a pistol could've missed you
Where would my people be?
Maybe it's neccessary
Where would we be if Martin didn't get killed
Malcolm survived/ JFK had lived
If everyone important wasn't one we lost
Imagine what would've happened
If Jesus hadn't got the cross!
Sometimes a martyr's just the start of the change
And the 1st get it, the worst beaten
Then battered, then slain!
And the thang to me
It's like the greater the message
The greater the threat
So if you don't want me dead
I haven't said enough yet!
So we keep singing it & singing it & singing it!
Until we touch a nerve & then we riding in a chariot!
I don't know if Lennon just got killed or was assassinated
But we gone carry on the struggle, cuz it's something sacred!

Political figures dying at the pull of a trigger
Who would've figured? They would all get shot down
Jealousy inside, made a Muslim die
Why ask why? They would all get shot down
Malcolm X, JFK to Martin Luther King
All had a dream, but it would all get shot down
Another brick in wall, watch it crumble & fall
Who would've thought? They would all get shot down

You can't get back a life, once it's been aborted
You can't rewind to the past & change what was started
Ain't no butterfly effect, but you can record it
Life is full of choices that you make till that date!
Is is fate? A predetermined destiny?
Is it bigger than what were supposed to see?
Or is it to be?
Why they take Makaveli & Biggie away from me?
RIP, at least I got they CD!
See your a nobody after somebody kills you
Your just a body at the funeral
With lives left so miserable
The physical so fragile, please learn!
That just like the leaves turn, lives must burn!
And you can keep a urn for the pain
But all that remains are memories
See in death there is no remedy
Ask John F. Kennedy, Malcolm X, M. L. King
So many slain by the trigger mane
God take away the pain

Political figures dying at the pull of a trigger
Who would've figured? They would all get shot down
Jealousy inside, made a Muslim die
Why ask why? They would all get shot down
Malcolm X, JFK to Martin Luther King
All had a dream, but it would all get shot down
Another brick in wall, watch it crumble & fall
Who would've thought? They would all get shot down
