The Moment I Feared

Sitting on my lunch break, grinning my teeth It's the last day of the week, boy, what a relief My muscles kind of ache, I feel rigid and stiff So I turned around and I smoked this big fat spliff Now I'm happy as can be, I'm in this pothead spell I put some eyedrops in my eyes so that no one can tell And now it's 5:45, almost time for the bell I'm back on the job and I don't bother no one I keep strictly to myself till my job is done Now it's 5:45, it's time to have fun I'm hanging around with a rapper, a kid named Don We got more drunk than a skunk and happy as can be We went to the Latin Quarters and we got in free Scooping all the girls with my fly jewellery Cause I'm a fly brown brother and you can't school me Boogie Down was performing, hey, they ain't no joke And a bunch of Brooklyn kids was looking all up my throat Was it my big chains with the big plates on 'em? Then they rolled on me and told me to run 'em This was the moment I feared Yo, take off your chains This was the moment I feared You need to take those chains off I said, "They're really not real, they're just a front for the girls" Then a whole bunch of fists just caved my world I was in pain, so ashamed, I wish I never came Had to pick up my face and go home on the train Then I went to my apartment and brought me a forty Then I went to the park, and I sat and I thought I seen Danny Boy blue with his girl named Sarah In one of their cars, I think it was a Valera She called out to me, but I really didn't hear her So I went a little closer, so I could a little clearer She said, "You know where... Tilden" I said, "I know where that is, just next to my building" I gave 'em the information and then I went on my way Then I went home, and slept 'til two the next day There was a knock on my door, I opened it, no quit It was Sarah standing there with a bag named Kit She starts to use me and abuse me and at first I wasn't with it Then we did it and we did it and we did it She said it was great, she said she's glad we had done it The elevator come and Danny Boy was on it This was the moment I feared This was the moment I feared Well he was huffing and puffing and he swung at me, word So I pulled out my jam and sauced the nerd Then he was dead two in the head, I took the cash and the Visa's She said, "Everything's all right, just make sure nobody sees us" Now I was rich as I was rich, I could have whatever would please me Now I could wear real gold in front of folks who don't tease me Yeah, I'll be a new neighborhood dad Cats'll roll up on me like, "Trick's my man" You see, a policeman rolled up on me and told me, "Make my day" I said, "Relax, brother," but he had proof that I had done it He found the gun with my fingerprints on it Now I'm in prison, doing life and I'm scared Some kid snuffed me cold and greased me where no one dared This was the moment I feared Now bend over This was the moment I feared Take your trowsers down, and bend over Now I'm doing life and I'm scared A kid knocked me cold and greased me where no one dared The moment I feared This was the moment I feared
