    "they both hopped out the truck pullin they mask down
    it's obvious they didn't come here for gas now
    the man behind the register saw the two comin
    he reached beneath for his piece, like a true gunmen
    hands shaky his hands formin beads of sweat
    the two rush inside the other guy doesnt see em yet
    one yells "hand me yo earnings off every purchase spent"
    then drew his burner at the same time the worker did
    dude in the back got to hidin behind the condom rack
    speechless reaches to palm his gat, where da robbers at?
    he rolls high with a .45 and with both eyes
    saw the second robber draw a tech from out his coatside"

    elzhi is dope

  11. [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=afgHqFOPDN0]YouTube - Blue Scholars: 50 Thousand Deep[/ame]

    "Walk along steady, riot squad ready
    To protect every last dignitary's ass
    But this started when they herded us like cattle in a fence
    Protesters gettin' restless without an exit

    They threatened to arrest us, we pushed back and then
    A hail of rubber bullets hit teens and old men
    I admit, had to split when the first gas canisters hit
    Felt it burn in my eyes, nose, and lips

    They tried to blame it on the anarchists, garbage
    I was there, I'll tell you right now the pigs started it
    But they distort it in the news
    Talkin' bout stompin' down Niketown wearing their shoes

    But the body rock stopped, probably got caught by the cops
    Nearby, somebody got shot
    But the parties don't stop and the parties don't care
    It's a stick-up, it's why we got our hands in the air"
