[Verse 1] It was a Friday, coming back from the highway Heavy down pour, parked the ride in the driveway Scared to d**h. Gut starts groaning Hop out the truck, front door flies open My homie in a daze with arms on his head Words to no avail, a 9 up in his hand Bout dropped the keys when he broke the silence Eyes filled with tears, I tried but couldn't hide it Fell to my knees, swore I couldn't breathe Throwing up sick, it hurt to dry heave Stumble in the house, moms freaking out Her purse on the table, her body on the couch Tried to look away when I could not The anger spreading through my body like a buck shot Face pail white, my head felt light Her body covered in blood, her fist clinched tight I.. Tried to maintain but I couldn't Tearing up the house when I shouldn't It's like my whole world caved in The devil in my head. the God in my hands My man came through and tried to wrap me up See my mom running from me, bout to self destruct Broke free from his grip, ran down to the basement Guns on the bed, revenge is all I'm tasting [Chorus] Somebody's gotta die tonight It's gonna be an eye for an eye tonight Somebody's gotta die tonight It's gonna be an eye for an eye tonight [Verse 2] Loaded up heat with haste
Cops on the way so we sped the pace Guns filled the bag, Mac 10s and mags 10:20 pm's the last call she had We hit the streets. G driving, I'm back seat sobbing Staring out the window, clutching on my problem We pa**ed up 5-0, a race to the houses They en route to mine while we headed towards Malcolms Yea dawg, I'm good just keep driving I gotta phone call, say he out front live in the pick up It's bout to get lit up. The call* was his This ain't his first time hiccup Caught him last year putting hands on his moms The guy's gotta issue... Got it all solved He shot her four times, put her body on the lawn of the house Now he think he on the run but his time's running out Pull up to the block and I'm ready to dump See him putting bags in the back of the trunk When he closed it up I hopped out quick In a black outfit, coming from the back My hand on the Mac. He hopped in the truck He's about to start it up. He ain't got enough time Cause I'm 5 feet behind. Walk around to the side Look him dead in his eyes. Before he could reply [Chorus] Somebody gotta die It's gonna be an eye for an eye tonight Somebody gotta die It's gonna be an eye for an eye tonight It's gonna be an eye for an eye tongiht
