As long as lawyers get dat money you know they beating cases
Shots fired it's another homicide (bow)
Summer time leave yo ass traumatized (trauma, bow)
It's a cold world so I ride 'round wit that heat (yeah)
Twenty four seven ain't no lackin' in my sleep (aye)
I keep that loud boy and I got it for the cheap

Hi folks! I was really back & forth on doing a Linkin Park song this week, but I got so INSANE amounts of messages, comments, mails on making a tribute so this is all for you! I had actually started on this song a while back, but never had a chance to finish it so I felt this was the right time. Thanks everyone and R.I.P Chester.
