Rat

I saw the flash of gunfire inside the house,

I saw my cousin Axel as he ran out,

He ducked the ghetto bird into an alley way,

I saw his eyes, I know he saw me,

These shadow streets cast shadows of doubt.

I saw it all but a rat is rat is a rat,

Rat tat tat tat tat,

Turn your back on your blood,

You deserve what you get,

"I will be your alibi",

A rat is a rat is a rat,

Rat tat tat tat tat, a rat is a rat.

"Do we have a problem?" his hand on my back,

Eyes shot with blood he ordered two shots of Jack.

"Because the way I see it you're now apart of this,

If u don't speak you're an accomplice,

And if you speak you've got bigger problems than that."
