The Last Breath

[Cougnut:]

The bullet hit him in his back then came out his chest

This wouldn't have happened if he left the house with his vest

I was rollin through this neighborhood known for drama

I wasn't trippin cause I had to drop my partner's momma

Off at her house deep into the crazy part

of the 'jects where the funk and the drama start

Seen these marks who had beef about a year ago

Straight plexin bout a no good dirty ho

They seen my boy recognize us from the party right

Roll up hill in a bucket and straight open fire

Let a sucker straight duck but my Boone was hit

Bleedin bad from the chest I said "Aw shit"

I straight mash burnin rubber on the freeway bro

Strikin mad on the freeway straight to general

My bullet bad coughin blood up on the gurney G

They rushed him fast to the back straight to surgery

Got on the phone called up Fresh I said, "Hurry C"

Get to the hospital general emergency

Just then I seen the doc and he was smokin Kools

I said, "What's up", he said, "Nut I got some bad news"

I started cryin, I had to shake my head

Because I knew, my dog was DEAD

[Hook:]

He took a breath and he knew he'd breathed his last breath [x4]

"Don't ask me why, cause I'm down in a suit and tie"

He took a breath and he knew he'd breathed his last breath [x3]

"Don't ask me why, cause I'm down in a suit and tie"

[Cougnut:]

I know who did it so I payed the little marks a visit

Old school Mob with my boys all four windows tinted

Caught 'em slippin straight trippin on the late night

Fightin with his broad, trying to keep his game tight

Hit the corner with no headlights

Drinkin on a St. Ides, puffin on a blunt right

He seen the bucket started runnin cause he felt the funk

I hit the gas, caught that ass, put him in the trunk

Tied his ankles up with chains, for what it's worth

Drug his ass by the public through the fucken turf

Let loose a clip in the air cause I didn't care

People stare cause body parts is flying everywhere

I tried to lift his whole set with that Mac 11

And put every motherfucker on channel 7

But I cut from the drama but I'm not through

Here comes the boys in blue, plus the crew from channel 2

Askin questions bout the outlook of the fate

The chunk bodies and the boys with the yellow tape

But it was clean how we did it, so FUCK the task

Askin questions bout the suspects in the Jason mask

I had to do it to a fish my partner's shameful death

He took a breath and he knew he'd breathed his last breath

[Hook:]

He took a breath and he knew he'd breathed his last breath

"Don't ask me why, cause I'm down in a suit and tie"

[Phone ringing]

[Talking:]

Hello (Hey, what's up Nut, man is you alright)

Yeah man, I'ma make it man

But my family over here trippin man

(Aight, me and Supafly on the way to come swoop you up in the limo)

[Cougnut:]

Time to go my boy swoop me in a limo

Louis and Rives bound to another funeral

Just last week I lost another damn close ace

This shit is crazy seems like I can't leave this place

It was sad cause everybody was in a state of trauma

I felt bad as I cried with my partner's momma

Reminiscin' bout the times that we used to share

Bustin hoes everywhere now he's outta there

It ain't no joke when a brother get gunned down

Specially from a brother from the same town

I'm tryin to send my little message to express my rage

Instead of pickin up yo gauge turn the fucken page

And if you can't tear it off till another day

And throw the dogs instead of pickin up that HK

We already out numbered by that other race

Slow your pace and stop workin for that penal face

Cause everytime you do a drive-by and shoot up bloods in

Later down your life they find it was your cousin

And that ain't fly to watch your momma and your peoples cry

All you need to do is try and ask yourself why?

It might be you next layin in that box to rest

You took a breath and you knew you breathed your last breath

[Hook:]

He took a breath and he knew he'd breathed his last breath

"Don't ask me why, cause I'm down in a suit and tie"

He took a breath and he knew he'd breathed his last breath [x3]

"Don't ask me why, cause I'm down in a suit in tie"

He took a breath and he knew he'd breathed his last breath [x3]

He took a breath and he knew he'd breathed his last breath [x3]

"Don't ask me why, cause I'm down in a suit in tie"

He took a breath and he knew he'd breathed his last breath
