An Uptown Story
(Verse)
Now here's a story about a kid
Named Jay
Who lived on 151 and Broadway
Where they sold yay
From Mid-night to broad-day
In front building
256
He lived in 4j
He was a good kid
Always went to school
Stayed fly
Closet full of
Air Jordan Shoes
Upstairs
Lived his boo
Cece
And her brother Boo
But Jay and boo
Was cool
Like 2 month old ice cubes
Ceecee had long hair
Rocked a Moncler
Thick thighs
In Mirror jeans
That made you wanna stare
Deep dimples
No make up cake
Her face Eclair
Never took disrespect
Cause her brother was always there
But one day
A kid from up the block
Don Don
Got shot
In front of da coke spot
Word on the block
Cece
Ordered the drop
And Don moms
Ain't satisfied
Til that b**h in a box
Little did jay know
He was cuffing a hoe
Out to eat downtown
Shopping in Soho
Just so happens
Boo's girl Maria
Got the drop
From Serena
In front Little Cesar's
Leaving wit ha pizza
She heard her man boo
Let off 6 shots
Wit the same dirty Glock
Millz used to k**
A cop
Back of her mind
She thinking this can't be
They wanna k** boo
But she 2 months pregnant
With his seed
She do what any
Real b**h do
Decide to tell him
Hit him on iMessage
Meet me on Pelham
He hit her back
Saying ight
I'm bout to take flight
And I'm bringing extra clothes
Im spending the night
Boo get dressed
Trues Tim's
Burberry vest
Gold chain
From his moms
Dangle From his neck
He Go in the stash
Searching for 760
He counted 30 20's
And new 5 50's
Put the stash back
In da closet
Cash in his pocket
Looked at his room
Slammed the door
Then locked it
Walked out the door
Now he
Heading down the hall
With a
Feeling in his stomach
That he never had before
Towards the elevator
But it said out of order
Then the bulletin board
Read no hot water
Now boo tight
Another day in the project life
Pushed the exit door
To troop 5 flights
Of graffiti and dim lights
Pissing smelling
And crack pipes
Got to the second flight
Window peeped it was night
Took another look
To make sure he wasn't ill'n
Saw 10 n***as
Cold Chilling in front da building
He ain't panic
Went up
Another landing
Unzipped the gym back
Reaching for his cannon
He cleaned
The other night
So there won't be
No jamming
Just Simmidy Samming
Skin touch downs
Eli manning
Now he heading down the landing
Steady standing
Gun in hand and
Ready to send
Shells off
Like a Gas Hand in
Slowly creeping
Not thinking
To look behind
Then Millz
Jumped out
The super's Closet
From behind
Boo turned around
Millz shot 2 at his chest
Boo fell down the steps
Hand on over chest
Face full of sweat
Eyes Wide
Like he seen d**h
Taking deep breaths
Millz took the chain his off neck
Ran his pockets
Took the stash
Keys to the Lex
Then shook his head
Slow
And shot boo in the neck
Like Rico did Mitch
Ice voice ain't that a b**h
Millz ran out the building
And hopped in the whip
Jay was upstairs
Playing 2K
Bulls vs LA
He got the call from
Sheray
His building
Under investigate
For a homicide case
In the 2 floor
East-side building stair case
He knew that's where boo
Always Left to take the steps
Now he getting
A bad feeling
Rising In his chest
He decides
To call
Just to Check
Temperatures is rising
Tension is deep
f** a text
Jay calls boo phone
2 rings
But no answer
Now is heart
Is pumping faster
Than a jersey shore dancer
Cece busts in jay room
Crying they found boo
Jay hugs her
She said
What ima do
I have to move
He said
Ima see Millz
In a few
And tell him the news
She said no
He might do you too
He said do me to
She said
Do you too
Cause word on the block
He set up boo
Damn..............
