20

Written in the book, I understand

How shawty came through with 20 bands

Came up off a lick, lied about the circumstance

She already done it, it’s already out my hands

Got to do what you got to do, only chance

Enemies creeping, and so are the demons

Family barely eating, in and out of sleep

Pull out, she might be scheming, see what I mean

She walks in the ballroom

Music’s playing in tune

Dead bodies on the floor

She wants nothing more

Until she saw a black book

Had to take a second look

A book list full of plans

How to earn and collect these bands

I helped her with the list

Every move is a hit

People, places, and things

But, one don’t sit right with me

Murder and revenge

It’s 5,000 to make amends

The rest were such a tour

Let’s explain what we’ve endured

Each one’s 2 grand a piece

One had to deal with the police

Each one has its own means

Relations, sex, and greed

She first found 4 in the room

Came to me, asked for a boost

From L.A. to D.C.

Collecting currency

From family and someone’s ex

To fights and dodging the feds

Hit place to place on the list

18 will be collected

The last one worries me

It fills with urgency

The last one I won’t help

‘Cause I know who holds the wealth

She found out where he lives

She follows him to the crib

She holds him with a .44

Tells him to open the door

He says, “You’re making a mistake”

Force him in and yells, “Where’s the case?!”

5 others pop out with guns

Guess she’s not the only one

Argument to gun fire

Everyone’s a kill for hire

The irony of it is

The guy was my neighbor’s kid

I burst into the ballroom

Silence is playing in tune

Dead bodies on the floor

And she was nothing more

Then, I saw the black book

Had to take a second look

And I found the briefcase

Opened it, then was blue in the face

A letter to the safe

Numbers written just in place

Found the safe in the back

Open to 16,000 in cash

Written in the book, I understand

How shawty came through with 20 bands

Came up off a lick, lied about the circumstance

She already done it, it’s already in my hands

Got to do what you got to do, only chance

Enemies creeping, so are my demons

Family finally eating, and I can finally sleep

She came through with 20 bands
