The Evil Genius DJ Green Lantern Lyrics

Here we go,
Starting the story

Once upon a time not long ago,
Tale from the past

When people wore pajamas and lived life slow,
Describing a time when people lived a laid back life

When laws were stern and justice stood,
Era of strict laws and a strong judiciary system

And people were behavin' like they ought ta good,
People were acting responsibly

There lived a lil' boy who was misled,
Introduction of the main character

By anotha lil' boy and this is what he said:
The beginning of the boy's downfall

"Hey yo ty we gonna make sum cash,
The other boy started persuading him to do wrong things

Robbin' old folks and makin' tha dash",
Suggesting that they should steal from the elderly and run away

They did the job, money came with ease,
They successfully robbed someone

But one couldn't stop, it's like he had a disease,
One of the boys got addicted to stealing

He robbed another and another and a sista and her brotha,
The boy's addiction continued to grow

Tried to rob a man who was a D.T. undercover,
The boy tried to rob an undercover cop

The cop grabbed his arm, he started acting erratic,
The boy panicked and reacted erratically

He said "Keep still, boy, no need for static",
The cop tried to calm him down

Punched him in his belly and he gave him a slap,
The cop physically assaulted him

But little did he know the lil' boy was strapped,
The boy was armed

The kid pulled out a gun, he said "Why did ya hit me?",
The boy threatened the cop with a gun

The barrel was set straight for the cop's kidney,
The boy aimed at the cop's vital organs

The cop got scared, the kid, he starts to figure,
The cop was frightened and the boy started to think

"I'll do years if I pull this trigga",
The boy realized the severity of his actions

So he cold dashed and ran around the block,
The boy took off running

Cop radioes it to another lady cop,
The cop called for backup

He ran by a tree, there he saw this sista,
The boy saw a girl

A shot for the head, he shot back but he missed her,
The boy shot at the girl but missed

Looked around good and from expectations,
The boy checked his surroundings

So he decided he'd head for the subway stations,
The boy planned to escape through the subway

But she was coming and he made a left,
The boy took a turn

He was runnin' top speed till he was outta breath,
The boy ran as fast as he could

Knocked an old man down and swore he killed him,
The boy knocked down an old man and thought he killed him

Then he made his move to an abandoned building,
The boy tried to hide in an abandoned building

Ran up the stairs up to the top floor,
The boy went to the highest floor

Opened up the door there, guess who he saw?,
There was someone unexpected behind the door

Dave the dope fiend shootin' dope,
The boy saw a drug addict using drugs

Who don't know the meaning of water nor soap,
The drug addict was unhygienic

He said "I need bullets, hurry up, run!",
The boy asked the drug addict for bullets

The dope fiend brought back a spanking shotgun,
The drug addict gave the boy a shotgun

He went outside but there was cops all over,
The boy saw cops everywhere outside

Then he dipped into a car, a stolen motor,
The boy got into a stolen car

Raced up the block doing 83,
The boy drove at a high speed

Crashed into a tree near university,
The boy crashed into a tree

Escaped alive though the car was battered,
The boy survived the accident, but the car was damaged

Rat-a-tat-tatted and all the cops scattered,
The boy started shooting and the cops scattered

Ran out of bullets and still had static,
The boy ran out of bullets, but the situation was still intense

Grabbed a pregnant lady and out the automatic,
The boy took a pregnant woman hostage with his gun

Pointed at her head and he said the gun was full o' lead,
The boy threatened to kill the woman

He told the cops "Back off or honey here's dead",
The boy warned the cops to stay away

Deep in his heart he knew he was wrong,
The boy realized that what he was doing was wrong

So he let the lady go and he starts to run on,
The boy released the hostage and ran away

Sirens sounded, he seemed astounded,
The sound of sirens surprised the boy

Before long the lil' boy got surrounded,
The boy was soon surrounded by the police

He dropped the gun, so went the glory,
The boy surrendered and lost all his fame and glory

And this is the way I have end this story,
The story is coming to an end

He was only seventeen, in a madman's dream,
The boy was too young and naive

The cops shot the kid, I still hear him scream,
The police shot the boy and his screams still haunt the singer

This ain't funny so don't ya dare laugh,
The story is serious and shouldn't be taken lightly

Just another case 'bout the wrong path,
The story is about someone who chose the wrong path in life

Straight 'n narrow or yo' soul gets cast
The moral of the story is to stay on the right path or face the consequences
