Thursday, December 9, 2010 at 09:02PM When the devil come at you, it be real pretty.
That girl in class with the big breasts,
that ass that got its own area code,
knaw’mean?
“Warren, why you so quiet?” she say.
“Why you so cute?”
“Why don’t you come to my crib and
we can study before my parents come home.”
Playa’ come runnin’, right?
[hold for laughs]
Then you be going to class
on two hours sleep all week.
You was learnin’ other things.
That’s how Diablo get you.
Sends that honey-hot Jezebel
to pull your mind out of them books,
or your job, or your brothers and sisters and into…
[eye brow raise, devilish smirk]
Something.
And you called it love, right?
[gesture, hold for cheers]
[wait, pace]
But you know better now.
[hold for crowd]
You a lil’ older.
[hold]
Maybe a lil’ colder.
[hold]
We know that the honey of Jezebels
don’t hold anything against the sweet milk of Jesus!
[hold]
Say word?
[score]
