E-Dot - Mogadishu lyrics

[Intro: E-Dot] (Wake up). Uh huh. (Wake up). What's good? (Wake up). What's good, yo? (Wake up). Uh huh [Verse 1: E-Dot] What up, black? Yo, it's your brother. How you doing fool? Things cool? Boys tell me that you be playing pool at the school [?] run up a debt and get my peoples upset at you. Make ‘em mack a fool I'm sorry for leaving all the crumbs that I did But ma, she acting bugged, thinking that I do a bid Wanting to march in my life with no fun, saying I be doing rugs and acting trifling for fun So I'm flashing—something I gotta do with my crew Sipping [?] brew with much to do Getting respect that ma do. She never gave me, true? The only man I wanted in our life was some presidents on loot So I call to say that “I'mma miss you Yo, I joined the army and I'm off to Mogadishu To be all that I can be—bloom into March flower Goodbye, tomorrah. 0-six-hundred hours” [Interlude: (Friend) and E-Dot] (Hello?) Yo, it's me again. Don't know why I'm calling. Feels as though I've fallen (Stress has got you off and out of shape?) Oh man. I love tomorrah. I'm k**ing mental reasons I don't understand [Verse 2: E-Dot] I wanna speak to mama about the sweaters—it's cold Rather sling ‘caine than be a vet. I think I changed my mind I wanna come home and stay the century Go back out now. Home's a penitentiary I'm all confused. Self-abusing got me tripping Feel myself slipping, man, into the grip of sand [?] let me go. Don't wanna leave ‘em f**ed up, dog ‘Cause me and the block star ‘cause now I can see far I apologize for all I've done. Now you the only one That's thinking “How ‘bout ma?” But I hope to return Sporting garments of metals, sipping gin letting bu*terflies settle So give my mother my love and, brother, hope for the best. To get Head off this mess, I'll need an “S” on my chest And I know that you with me in mind, love—it's faith I'm out. Peace and elevate [Outro: E-Dot] It's all about love for the game, for the family For papa—he made a man of me For mama. It's real, black f** what you heard ‘cause this is real fact Love for the game, for the family For papa—he made a man of me For mama. It's real, black f** what you heard ‘cause this is real fact
