The Heralds of Extreme Metaphors (T.H.E.M.) - Mad Drama lyrics

[Webb] It was two in the morning, June '94 Some masked men came and left some slugs in my front door Too close to home, it's time to call it quits Wife threatens to leave, my daughter throwing fits What's the plan? The situations out of hand so I pick up the cordless and proceed to call my man: "What up, black? Some n***as pulled up in an Ac and tried to bring the ruckus like a premeditated attack" Yo, f** that, I ain't going out like that Disrespect my home, I'll put some n***as on they back (Canibus: True that, kid. give it a minute, yo, just wait) To top it all off, they had out-of-state Plates Yo, who's these outsiders trying to make some noise? They better finish what they started because my squadron destroys I'm pissed, these n***as is number on my hit-list and I won't be satisfied until I see their d**h certificates Retaliation with a bit of hesitation Ima let these n***as sleep and then proceed with the a**a**ination [Canibus: Hook (x2)] I don't know why n***as is trying to bring it to me But if they want my life, they'll have to come take it from me Ties between my family, nothing I know is stronger I'm in too deep and I can't hold my breath any longer [Webb] We gave it a week then decided to make our move We wanted them n***as to think that everything was cool That they got away with something Assuming they got over Loaded the trunk with explosives and pulled off in a range rover All on they block, like 5-0 raiding a drug-spot Set the timer, to turn they spot into a vacant lot Looked in my rear-view, saw flames and heard screams Was aware of the fact that I k**ed some innocent human beings But I guess it was they time, 'cause we all got to go I took care of my business, kid, that's all that I know At least that's what I thought until I got home I walked through the door and saw a note by the phone It said: "honey, I'm at the hospital, let me explain; Tanya went to visit a friend and the building went up in flames. Call me as soon you can, they don't think he's going to make it. He's on life support, I need you here; I can't take it" I thought to myself "nah nah; couldn't be. not my own flesh and blood" I refused to believe But when I got to the hospital, they said it was too late They said she didn't make it, my wife was irate Screamin' like she was possesse by like a demon Yelling "f** the world, and life; what's the meanin'?!" I asked her where it happened, she said down the block Down the street, around the corner from that drug spot "you mean the building off of fifty-third and fifth?" She said "yeah, how did you know?" "an unfortunate lucky guess" I ran into the bathroom and almost threw up because that was the spot me and my man blew up Oh sh** . . . what the f** am I gonna do?
