I bongo with my lingo

And beat it like a wing, yo

To Congo to Colombo

Can't stereotype my thing, yo

I salt and pepper my mango

Shoot spit out the window

Bingo I got 'em in the thing, yo

Now what? I'm doing my thing, yo

Quit bending all my fingo

Quit beating me like you're Ringo

You wanna go?

You wanna win a war?

Like P.L.O. I don't surrendo

The sunshowers that fall on my troubles

Are over you, my baby

And some showers I'll be aimin' at you

'Cos I'm watchin' you, my baby

I bongo with my lingo

And beat it like a wing, yo

To Congo to Colombo

Can't stereotype my thing, yo

I checked that mouth on him

Fuckin' check my gas on him

I had him, cornered him

Fuckin' shut that gate on him

Why would you listen to him?

He had his way, I'm bored of him

I'm tired of him

I don't wanna be as bad as him

It's a bomb, yo, so run, yo

Put away your stupid gun, yo

'Coz we see through like a protocol

That's why we blow it up 'fore we go

The sunshowers that fall on my troubles

All over you, my baby

And some showers I'll be aimin' at you

'Cos I'm watchin' you, my baby

The sunshowers that fall on my troubles

Are over you, my baby

And some showers I'll be aimin' at you

'Cos I'm watchin' you, my baby

Semi-9 and snipered him

On that wall they posted him

They cornered him

And then just murdered him

He told them he didn't know them

He wasn't there they didn't know him

They showed him a picture then

"Ain't that you with the Muslims?"

He got Colgate on his teeth

And Reebok classics on his feet

At a factory he does Nike

And then helps the family

Beat heart beat

He's made it to the Newsweek

Sweetheart seen it

He's doin' it for the peeps peace

The sunshowers that fall on my troubles

Are over you, my baby

And some showers I'll be aimin' at you

'Cos I'm watchin' you, my baby

The sunshowers that fall on my troubles

Are over you, my baby

And some showers I'll be aimin' at you

'Cos I'm watchin' you, my baby

The sunshowers that fall on my troubles

Are over you, my baby

And some showers I'll be aimin' at you

'Cos I'm watchin' you, my baby
