1:36Clean the windshield and throw out the trash so I let him
1:38Hey I even asked the brother his name
1:41Where he was from got kids man and what's they ages
1:43He kinda sturred for a second he kinda looked surprise
1:45That anyone would even take an interest in his life
1:48He said young brother dem the only wurrds I done hurrd in the last yurr
1:51That wasn't low or get the f**k away from hurr
1:53How could something so simple as general conversation
1:55Mean much more than general conversation hey
1:58You could tell life had beaten him down
2:00Like he was in a title fight and this might be his last round

2:35Cause over history mystery brought us nutting but misery
2:37Man mo' people done died in the name of the Lord
