  • You cocked back
    You thought you had it planned, you thought you had your man
    He saw you comin', he ran when you tried to blast that man
    You missed him by inches, he sprinted
    Some of his boys on the corner was who your bullets entered
    Two of 'em pull through, but one didn't, son's finished
    You took the life of him
    The part about it that's crazy, you was aight with him
    Tight with him, why was he in the way?
    Why was he standin' next to the enemy that specific day?
    His style never hollas loud, stays reclusive
    Good dude, got that look like he always about to do shit
    Side of his mouth toothpick, one eyebrow raised
    Got into it with dude who still tried to live out his old wild out days
    They never had no probs
    Somehow they rubbed each other wrong like a bad massage
    These two different personalities had to collide
    Niggas could not aim and innocent niggas died
    You ask why, cause of a

    Accident murderer, act like you killed on purpose
    Liars brag, you put work in
    You ain't mean to murk him, your gun's a virgin
    Streets are full of them, read the bulletin
    Accident murderer
    You just a accident murderer

    We grew up doin' graffiti
    Now hollows is gettin' heated
    Seated in foreign cars, constantly gettin' weeded
    Proceeded to count profits, I know they got on binoculars
    But fuck 'em all, we ballin' 'til they come lock us up
    Twenty to life, I'm clubbin' blowin' twenty tonight
    We the Marlboro, marley marlin' all through the night
    Addicted to wealth, never cold turkey to war
    Snatch a tec off the shelf, live forever that's insh'allah
    Memoirs of a rich nigga
    Sweat suits, gold chains, old drug dealers
    New Benz, chrome rims are for show, killer
    You niggas accidental shoppers in back of the limo
    Pay your tithes, stay alive, can't be dodgin' my clique
    Hundred check, I use your bitch for some bargainin' chips
    In a hole, sell your home nigga don't sell your soul
    This forty-five in control, god forgives and I don't

    Accident murderer, act like you killed on purpose
    Liars brag, you put work in
    You ain't mean to murk him, your gun's a virgin
    Streets are full of them, read the bulletin
    Accident murderer
    You just a accident murderer

    Accident murderer, accident murderer
    You just an accident murderer

    Yo, for my nigga that got killed, got hit up
    Vodka spills on the concrete, light a swisha, we miss ya
    And for that girl who never made it home, shot in the dome
    How they gon' kill that beautiful sista?
    Violent adolescents, homicidal with weapons
    Not a lot of knowledge inside of they minds, that I'm guessin'
    Tell me who you impressin'?
    Shooters I knew them when they was babies, I used to test them
    Make 'em throw up they hands, choke 'em out playin' wrestlin'
    Watch 'em grow to a man, I see them now they reppin'
    But they cold-blooded, homie, wonderin' where the respect went
    Can't play with these little niggas, gangsta little niggas
    Can't hang with these little niggas, they killin', they reckless
    Wish I could build with him, but will he change really?
    Some real killers, I think of Wayne perry
    Fake 'til my nigga draws, what you want a name? Tell me
    You ain't mean to kill him, it wasn't necessary

    Accident murderer, act like you killed on purpose
    Liars brag, you put work in
    You ain't mean to murk him, your gun's a virgin
    Streets are full of them, read the bulletin
