CHALLENGER'S RAP
- Monday afternoon
- Tidying the window wells
- Baby chirps heard near
- Mother duck worried, distressed
- Saved I climbed down, set them free
- Came back the next week
- Noticed a few trapped again
- Funky smells arose
- Sounds of flies buzzing around
- 3 ducklings rotting away
- It's unfortunate
- Though there were 8 in total
- 5 alive and well
- Happy perspective
- Nature is cruel and unfair
- Still I wonder why...
- What made them go down there?
DEFENDER'S RAP
- woke up with a gun in my mouth
- the sandman had a warrant for my arrest
- told me if i aint repent for my sins, he would blast me
- i took it as a joke as if, maybe, i was still in a dream
- but the taste of a glock cannot be replicated
- i aint know what i was doing was sin
- thought it was a part of the game
- thought later down the line i would eventually stop
- til i see visions of a prime 50, telling me get rich or...
- you know the rest, but i guess
- money aint worth the price of dying
- knowing your whole life you been snatching souls
- got a dozen lives to your name but aint ever cried for one
- am i a monster, nah, monsters dont play by street rules
- i was simply a sheep
- embellished by the black struggle
