《Tried By Twelve》歌词

[00:00:00] Tried By 12 - East Flatbush Project

[00:00:10] Don't say sticks and stones

[00:00:11] They might break your bones

[00:00:13] But the nine millimeter, it'll bore your dome

[00:00:15] I'm talkin about the toe-taggin

[00:00:17] Huh, the body-baggin

[00:00:18] Man, niggas are dyin, huh, mommas are cryin, casket buyin

[00:00:22] Who, me dyin, leave my family cryin?

[00:00:24] Hell no, I cause, um, bloodbaths and showers

[00:00:26] Send me commissary, motherfuck them flowers

[00:00:29] Thoughts of slaughter, of leaving my daughters

[00:00:32] Hours and hours of fears running through my mind

[00:00:34] As I pick up the Zig 9

[00:00:36] Beef starts with the shove and ends with the shovel

[00:00:40] And niggas standing on your corner reminiscing of you

[00:00:43] But your ass is out and you're dead and gone

[00:00:46] So who'd you rather be?

[00:00:47] The murdered, or the murderer?

[00:00:49] Niggas got me stressed - I got my Tek and my vest

[00:00:51] And I sing who Jah bless, let no man curse

[00:00:54] Or one of us will leave here tonight in a hearse

[00:00:56] For we'll be tried by 12

[00:00:58] And fertilizing daisies

[00:01:00] Crying mommas and cousins and crying babies

[00:01:02] Due to the fact that death is a must

[00:01:05] Ashes to ashes and dust to dust

[00:01:08] Niggas getting bust

[00:01:09] For in God we trust

[00:01:10] So if you're comin to my town and try to slow the dough down

[00:01:13] You must be casket-bound

[00:01:14] Cause I'd rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6

[00:01:17] I sign my name on the book at your funeral

[00:01:20] The Zig's on my hip with an extra clip

[00:01:23] Cause I'd rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6

[00:01:26] La-di-da-di

[00:01:27] Saturday night and we like to party

[00:01:30] The punks are fucking around so we might catch a body

[00:01:33] Early Sunday morning, don't really wanna hurt nobody

[00:01:36] So what they tryin to get?

[00:01:37] I already got it

[00:01:39] Chump motherfuckers just a-schemin on my shit

[00:01:41] But little do they know I got the Zig on my hip with an extra clip

[00:01:45] And I'd rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6

[00:01:48] Aw shit - murder commit

[00:01:50] And there goes another statistic runnin' through ballistic

[00:01:52] The witness say I'm wicked

[00:01:54] But that's how I kick it

[00:01:55] Cause I'll be the bastard who blasts and didn't get blasted

[00:01:58] Boy kiss dem casket

[00:02:00] I cut your wig back kid

[00:02:01] Sucker, look who died

[00:02:03] Body will be identified

[00:02:05] Momma and poppa will cry, bitch-ass man says he'll testify

[00:02:09] To see me tried, but here's I slide

[00:02:11] Upon the same corner that you did

[00:02:14] And I'm still facing a bid

[00:02:15] Cause I'd rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6

[00:02:19] I sign my name at the book at your funeral

[00:02:21] The Zig's on my hip with an extra clip

[00:02:23] Cause I'd rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6
