Homicide

Could have been you, could have been me, watching the news, names on the TV screens

Who could it be? Words on the streets, the blames on me
Just another homicide, now they on the other side. He was just going for a ride
Connected his phone, stop on the track, hearing a bump in the night. Now we are seeing the light
like PediaLite. Catching a vibe, ooh, mixing the dark with the light

Shroom weed in a pipe, I had to read him his rights, wasn't a heathen in sight

We here to set niggas free, I can invest in the streets, I'll make it back in a week
Let me unravel your thoughts, I know you're looking for peace

She said some niggas was looking for me, do not awaken the beast
Innocent looking but good in the streets, heard that they got him, it could have been me

Could have been you, could have been me, watching the news, names on the TV screen
Who could it be? Words on the streets, the blames on me

Woke the next morning, a head full of thoughts, and he thought it was head to the beach
Couple of moves that he wanted to make, plus a few goals that he wanted to reach
No matter how far that he ran, he had a vision he couldn't unsee

I'm just a man, he thought, how could this happen to me
How come I didn't stay asleep? Look at my family tree
How can I carry the roots? I barely take care of the leaves
What if I fail? What if I cannot achieve

What if they do not believe that I was the one that was chosen
How are they different from me? I was just curious and poked through the seam
How it appeared was more than it seemed. Now it's apparent I'm living the dream
But what if the dream isn't living in me? How could they learn if they listen to me

Could have been anyone other than me

Could have been you, could have been me, watching the news, names on the TV screen
Who could it be? Words on the streets, the blames on me
That's another homicide
