The joy the flowers bring me 
The pain still has me sinking 
All while my heart gently weeps 
Your smile has got me shrinking 
The tears in your eyes are twinkling 
Because the heart gently weeps 

[Raekwon the Chef] 
Snowy night, fiends basin, a Raisin in the Sun was amazin 
The joint on the dresser, a gauge went off 
Jumped up, fish tank, it fell, and they stuck 
They shot her cousin LaVon, he owed a buck 
Willie was awful, pulled out the ratchet, let off two 
Grits fell on his leg, Kiana ripped the cold bowl 
He violent, an Island [bad word] with the talent 
of six killas who just came home, from straight whylin 
Robbin everything in Macy's, Lacy, short haircut 
With long arms who [bad word] niggaz, got four babies 
Yvette jabbed her, slapped her wig off, ran in the crib 
She did the dumb [bad word]  my [bad word] then clapped her 
Lester, smoked Chester sister Vest, I heard it was a mess 
They ripped the apple out her throat, blessed her 
Hungry hyenas from Medina, all eight trainers 
Who got reluct', think fast and blast from Beamers 

[Ghostface Killah] 
Yeah, yo 
I brought my [bad word] out to Pathmark, she's pushin the cart 
Headed to aisle four, [bad word] I got milk on my Clark's 
That's what I get, not focusin from hittin that bar 
My mouth dried, need plenty water quick, I feel like a shark 
In the aisle bustin them paper towels and wipin my Wally's down 
I stood up to face a barrel, he's holdin a shiny pound 
It's him, he want revenge, I murdered his Uncle Tim 
I sold him a bag of dope, his wife came and copped again 
[singing] That [bad word] is crazyyyyy 
And uh, she brought her babyyyyy 
She knew I hard the murders, a smack 
It killed her man though, now I got his [bad word] nephew grippin his gat 
You's a [bad word] - [singing] you better kill meeeee 
You know you're bootyyyyyy 
You pulled your toolie, out on meeeee... [bad word] 
First thought was to snatch the ratchet 
Said [bad word] it and [bad word] grabbed it 
I ducked, he bucked twice, this [bad word] was [bad word] laughin 
I wrestled him to the ground, tustle, scuffle, constantly kicked him 
He wouldn't let go the joint, so I [bad word] bit him 
Shots was whizzin, hittin Clorox bottles 
Customers screamin, then the [bad word] ran out of hollows 
I had to show him what it's all about 
Next thing you read in the paper, "man who came to kill gets knocked out" 

[Interlude: Erykah Badu] 
I don't know whyyy-hy-hyyyy, nobody told you 
Man's not supposed to cry... 
Though we're just babies, and you're so crazy 
How tears of joy bring so much life 

[Method Man] 
Yo, aiyyo yo yo 
You on your way to the store [bad word] grab me a Dutch, I'm mad as [bad word] 
My dude, my count was short when I was baggin it up 
Now I need liquor, [bad word] pass me a cup 
What's up with Officer Brown? The other day he tried to shackle me up 
He killed Kase and now he hasslin us 
This [bad word] got balls, even the gall to try and pattin me up 
Time to re-up, let these niggaz know we back on the block 
With three hundred off a G-pack, crack in the spot
