5
It's just so many things in this life that I can't understand
6
I'll never be able to understand cause there's no answer for 'em
7
The vultures be out though, know that
8
And they always gon' be out
9
Cause they're savages...
10
His arteries are punctured, they can't save his body
11
He got shot standin' outside the party
12
He was only pickin' up his son, he wasn't parkin'
13
Niggaz drove by and let the shotgun bark at him
14
He died the same way as Malcolm and Martin
15
Just tryin' to help people, instead of harm them
16
Mr. Youngblood, I know your soul hear me now I know you sittin' on a throne,
17
I know you hear me now I stood at King Hospital with emotion
18
I'm doin' music now, Pat still coachin'
19
Say hello to John...
20
I always thought that what happened to you was dead wrong
21
It doesn't figure out, it doesn't figure in
22
A good bottle and I still don't understand
23
But that's how life goes, some bigger master plan
24
We'll really never know, until the very end
25
[Chorus:]
26
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
27
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
28
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
29
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
30
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
31
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
32
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly...
33
[Defari:]
34
They jackin' for Hondas, initiation
35
She never saw 'em comin', had no inclination
36
They shot into her back window at a red light
37
Kim, why'd that have to be you that night?
38
You was so cool, such a beautiful sista
39
Remember 55th in Oakland, all the tree we twist up?
40
They pulled you out the car that night and took off
41
The vultures struck again, another good person loss
42
Me and Scotty G went to the funeral
43
Service was foul, somethin' we wasn't used to
44
We left and got some 40's of Old Gold
45
Went to the park and blew one to celebrate your soul
46
Had to do our own thing, the whole thing was mindblowin'
47
To this day I'm not knowin' why...
48
[Chorus:]
49
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
50
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
51
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
52
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
53
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
54
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
55
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly...
56
[Defari:]
57
We went to school together, he was a good brotha
58
A Double Masters in Education, smooth brotha
59
Down for the youth, really shared his Pop's passion
60
We used to go head up on Sega's
61
Live or Madden He was from New York, but here's the irony
62
They found him dead, here in L.A.
63
County North off the 405, where they found him
64
Damn, my nigga was literally right around me I wish he holla'd, I'd be with him when he pulled over
65
He fell victim to the sins of another vulture
66
Shot in the back of the head
67
My nigga Ennis couldn't believe you was really dead
68
It was on the news, I'm tryin' to call you
69
No answer, no reply, I'm like "Nah dude"
70
This shit can't be, this here's a nightmare
71
But the truth don't lie, and it's right there
72
[Chorus: x2]
73
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
74
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
75
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
76
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
77
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
78
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
79
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly...
