Crime Stories, you get, boy, no glory
Not in these Crime Stories
Im tellin you right now, you get no glory
Scene I:
Too-Big and the Hammer rollin on a hit
Knives in our hands to the sound of the click click!
And now were ready, we hit the swoove
Windows ease down we sprang their crews
P-P-P-P-P-P-POW! POW! woman screams
Eight fools dead, a baby too
You ask me how Im livin...This h*ts for you
But thats not all we got the prize
A mother in the kitchen, now yall, shes dead inside!
Yeah, we took the suckers out, they know what time it is now!
Crime Stories, homeboys, you get no glory
Not in these Crime Stories
You aint gettin on that...No glory
Scene II: Me And Too-Big At The Club
Too-Big and the Hammer kickin it at the club
Boostin about the way that we pulled those suckers plugs
We werent worried, nall! We didnt care
When youre in this war, yo! All is fair!
A tap on my shoulder, I turn around
Too-Big is dyin fast, hes on the ground
I reach for my gat, it was too late
The knives went pointblank range click! click! in my face
Yo! They opened fire and took me out POW! POW!
Somebody tell my mother I love her, man!
Crime Stories, boy, you get no glory
Im not going to mislead my brothers
Crime Stories, Im tellin ya right now, ah, will they talk? No glory
Scene III: The Pimpin Game
Now Im pimpin these berries, got to get that money
Those suckers still payin for a little bit of honey
Nothin in this world can stop my flow
AIDS aint done nothin but help my business grow
My babes are trained to make that dollar
To take you out, fool, it aint no bother
You dropped your pants, youll pay the price
Your money may be AIDS, fool, and then your life
Yeah, thats right cause a pimp will get to make it, you know what Im sayin here!
Were talkin about Crime Stories
And I aint givin up no propers, no glory
Not to those suckers talkin about how they was locked up
Crime Stories, all the real brothers have been locked up and we know you dont wanna go back...No glory
Scene IV: The Pimp Got Took Out By Barrys Brother
We got this tip on some new fresh bait
Money in their heads and they could hardly wait
My girls went to their room to make the play
Two suckers at once, yeah, would make my day
Now Im outside some suckers walk up
Talkin real hard about smokin my butt!
He pushed the button, the blade came out
Cut me on my throat and then a bullet in my mouth POW!
Ive got some devils that all the babes in hell, maybe hell let me work with him? SSSSH...
Crime Stories, Im tellin ya, man, you get no glory
Cause Im not gonna mislead my young brothers
Crime Stories, if you ever been locked up, you know the true stories, no glory
And Id like to say this before we get outta here!
SPOKEN:
To my brothers in the game, my brothers werent out
Theyre doin what they feel theyve got to do
I wanna ask you one favour, lets let the young kids...10...11...12 years old
Lets let them go on and do their thing at the schoolhouse!
Lets give them a chance to make it
Lets give them a chance at a different life
You doin what you feel you have to do
But the youngsters and they dont know any better
So we want to give them a chance to live
I mean life is precious, and you know that yourself
And you try to make a better life for yourself...
So what Im sayin is from the bottom of my heart, let the kids be
Help the children lead to another way
And peace from you! And I love you! And Im OUTTA here!
