Chorus
After laughter, comes tears
Verse 1: Prince Rakeem 'The RZA'
Yo check yo yo
Check the script
Me and the gods get it ripped
Blunts in the (????)
Fourty dogs (????)
Had a box,
'Boom Boom' the bass will blast
We was laughing
At all the girls that passed
Conversation,
Brothers had begin to discuss
(Hey yo, Ra, remember that kid ya bust?)
Aw yeah,
He ran,
But he didn't get far
'Cause I dropped him
Heh heh heh heh heh HA
Not knowin'
Exactly what lied ahead
My little brother,
My mother said the mouth will break
Get the (????)
It's a hot (????) this summer
Didn't expect,
To come across,
A crazy gunner
Hey shorty,
Check him for the bag and the dough,
But he was brave,
Looked him in the eye
And said no
But he splattered him,
POW!
Then he snatched the bag
In his pockets
Then he (????) him up the ass
Girls screamin',
The noise up and down the block
(Hey, Rakeem!) What?
(Your little brother got shot!)
I ran frantically,
Then I dropped down to his feet,
I saw the blood
All over
The hot concrete
I picked him up,
Then I held him by his head
His eyes shut,
That's when I knew he was--
Aw man!
How do I say goodbye
It's alway the good ones who have to die
Memories in the corner of my mind
Flashbacks, I was laughin' all the time
I taught him,
All about the bees and birds
But I wish I had a chance to sing these three words
Chorus
Verse 2: Ghost Face Killer
Me and my man,
My ace big Moe from the shelter
'Bout to hit (????)
From this girl named Thelma
Now Thelma had a rep
That was higher than her neck
Every girl from Shaolin dissed her respect
We was (????)
You know how it is when you're bliss
Three o'clock in the morning
Something gots to give
Moe said he'll go first
I said 'I'll take next'
Here, take this raincoat, and practice safe sex
He seemed to ignore
I said 'be for real
She's not even worth it,
To go raw deal'
A man's gonna do what a man's gonna do
He got butt-naked and stuck the power you
Twenty minutes went by,
Now I'm out,
Without a doubt,
I'm not pumpin' up, I am airin' out
Hey yo, he came out laughing with glory
I'm surprised,
He's still livin',
To tell his story
But he carried on,
With the same old stuff with Stephanie
Like a whammy,
He pressed his luck
Fool tried to be down with O.P.P.
Ain't nuttin' wrong but he got caught with the H.I.V. now
No life to live,
Doc says two more years
So after the laughter,
I guess comes the tears
