Junior |
Yeah |
Yo, what up? |
This is Aceyalone |
What’s happening? |
Yo |
Let me tell you a story real quick about one of my partners |
About this cat I know |
One of my homeboys, and we just gonna call him Junior |
Yeah, Junior got some money just for being a good kid |
He sealed it up and never even opened up the lid |
Girls gave him candy cause he treated him nice |
He took it home and chopped it up, and doubled up the price |
Miss Thomas at the parent’s conference said we honest |
She was astonished at his confidence and what he accomplished |
He respected his elders, but he knew who he liked |
He listened before he talked, and he never would fight |
It’s like, everybody knew him or they wanted to know him |
And anytime they did something for him, they felt that they owed him |
He was learning a life game that no one would show him |
He had more than an idea of where he was going |
He grew into a young man and gained some trust |
And he had a knack for pleasing people, and that was a plus |
Any situation he was in, he would adjust |
He never cussed, and he never fussed what he discussed |
Yeah, that’s what I’m talking about |
We was the same age, but I still looked up to him because we had this thing |
together |
Some people just got that knack, and you can’t do nothing about it |
But they end up being a victim of circumstance because he’s on the rise and, |
you know, he’s gotta battle against the odds |
And my man had such a good demeanor |
He was smart, man |
And he was a hustler |
And he had his |
And he had a natural ability to bring people together |
And which people he brought together |
By the time he turned 26, he was a |
He was becoming a young prince with a whole lot of sense |
Not only could he make money hustling white |
He had a little bit of everything to get you some height |
They made cash with him so nobody wanted to hit him |
But they’d get him if they had to get him, get rid of him quick |
But why kill off the goose if you’re making grip |
And why kill off the captain if you run a good ship? |
Some people are strong |
Some people are weak |
Other are smart, but still don’t got a stomach for the streets |
But Junior had a different angle, he was an angel |
The game could tango |
'Cause he can’t tango |
A dance with wolves or waltz with a rattlesnake |
What would it prove? |
They started |
But he stayed cool, and he stayed steady, making moves |
Yeah, okay |
Meanwhile, Junior’s off doing his thing, and living up to his full potential |
But the haters, and I don’t even want to call them that cause they’re worse |
than that |
But he’s become a victim of the monster |
You know, the machine, the revolving door |
It’s them that got versus them that can’t get, and ain’t gonna never get |
Junior had it good |
Man, four years later, Junior got him a nice stack |
Compared to what he used to have, now he’s got twice that |
When beef is at his door, he decided to ice that |
Now knowing more and more, he was caught in a mice trap |
He wanted to fight back |
But who could he tell? |
The lesser of the two evils would just put him in a cell |
Everybody around knew that Junior was frail |
But he didn’t need muscles to make it, all he needed was a scale |
A hundred and twenty-thousand in cold hard cash |
A stash at gun blast that don’t even ask |
You get beat by the only one thing that can beat you |
Defeat you, cheat you, the streets will eat you |
Jealousy and envy make a person deceitful |
Then you add greed to it |
Combonation is lethal |
Well it’s a short life knowing that it won’t be a sequel |
Sometimes bad things just happen to good people |
Yeah. |
So they killed him |
They murdered him in cold blood |
He died face-down in front of an empty safe |
And for the fools that did this, I hope you rot in hell |
I hope you live in hell |
For my nigga, Junior |
Rest in peace |
Junior had it good |
