Black Eyez

(talking)
Yeah I'm drunk, but I'm not too drunk enough I got to pay the bills
Think it's a game, when we get home
I'ma show you, I'ma deal with you, I'ma show you

[Chorus: Ed West - 4x]
I'm just a kid, I can't help but to cry
Daddy don't give mama no more black eyes

[Krazy]
Lord make them stop fighting, I can hear my mama
In a hospital bed after another rumble
I'm only six years old, I can feel her pain
So many blows, to the head done finally drove her insane
But she love him, even though my daddy be creeping
But let him tell it, she's the one that's doing all the sneaking
Caught you cheating, so many times she let that go
Even when she caught you when she walked in the door
She would always play it cool, she didn't want to lose you
It was them same thuggish ways that's what made her chosse you
Mama, would rather be dead than to be without you
She held us for nine months, just to show she was true
Dear lord please help us cause we always broke
Daddy traded some food stamps for some (edited)
And the welfare checks he gambled that with the dice
Every night for seven days we ate egg and rice, now

[Chorus - 4x]

[Krazy]
The police done came out again, you can go to jail
Me and moms started scams just to pay your bail
You made a promise that you'd stop, once again
Until you came home drunk, with a couple of friends
Breaking up our furniture, slapping moms
I think I, heard her cry about a million times
Tomorrow's my birthday, I turn eight
I ask you god please get rid of this man I hate
This is the tale of a young soldier, leave this side
You can wear them shades all you want they still can't hide the drama
That daddy put you through a broken heart
What's going on, he ain't act like this from the start
But once you got close, he started to change
Everytime you went out he started acting deranged
Telling you, who to hang with, picking your friends
That went bad, didn't mean nothing cause you living a sin, now

[Chorus - 4x]

[Krazy]
Ten years old, my little sister sealed the fate
The cops are, looking for daddy for the candy she ate
It was the, same candy that daddy put in his nose
My mama, passed out when the casket closed
Now my daddy comes through the window, everynight
But my moms still crying something just ain't right
At night when I'm asleep I miss my little sister Sandy
Now my moms and daddy both, eat that candy
I don't watch the t.v. it mess us up every minute
Daddy said that the antenna got some candy in it
This morning when I woke up to go to school
Moms was in a deep sleep, so I figured it's cool
So I dressed myself, and I got on the bus
I'm kind of shocked that daddy didn't wake me up with a fuss
The police came to school just to make a check
Mommy was asleep, daddy had done beat her to death, now

[Chorus - 4x]
