[Ghostface Killah] I had my eyes squinched up tryin' to get through the fog Pullin' up mad slow blunted, passin' police cars I saw one two three bodies Blood mixed with the rain ran through the gutter That's the work of a tommy But then I heard it was the work of a mami Spanish chick bad, about five six, long hair, red Jag Kinda bowlegged, Chanel sweatpants, she thick She love her some pussy, don't really give a fuck about dick That's when I got the call, yo Tone come to the shop Some fire jumped, chill I'm about to pull in the lot Lowered the tunes, pulled the Benz keys out the ignition Brushed the ashes off my blazer then finished my Guinness So then I walked in, seen the God shufflin' cards Spades game, it's goin' down, he lost a couple of yards Peace Lord, how your physical? [Raekwon] He upstate miserable Stressed, doin' a thousand sets But yo check the visuals I'm at this hotel in Queens Me and Charene getting' slow necked That's live, I couldn't finish the bean Gotta a phone call, seen the whole bitch face fall Dope fiend look like the bitch swallowed an eight ball They talkin' about killin' ya man's and them That kid from Staten, his jewels is tough, his robes is satin Yo that's my heart Tone; yea yea he killed the captain What nationality nigga?
