TRESSES OF TRAYVON
You see me in my hood,
but thats only cause my hair ain't dry yet,
still got another hour till this thang can come alive,
my mane is getting done but under a hood its hidden,
Cause these silky strans just need love and weather protection,
it takes finesse to get my messy mop of frizz snarl free and a lot of time to tame my do of ringlet wannabes,
if you wonder what lurks its my beast getting worked,
but I was fixing for a cigarillo so I grabbed my purse,
took a stroll to the corner store,
what up to the clerk, at first he thought the worst, n had to take a second look,
like I was maybe gonna rob him but I was

He didnt know about the half done job under the cloth,
little did he know I was primping just before,
Wasn't trying to run into anybody that I know,
I mean I'm surely super fresh but I was dressed in ugly sweats,

Wasn't trying to run into anybody that I know,
I mean I'm surely super fresh but I was dressed in ugly sweats,
My tangled head prevented me from presenting all my best,
But on my way home, well, little did I know,
About the man who sat in the window,
between blinds spying on me,
But I'm as innocent and as infant,
As he gripped his glock,
My happy ass just kept walking down the sidewalk

All-seeing cross-guard n' side-walk referee
Armchair window peeper, after hour peace keeper?
On the lookout for hoodlums in hoods who be up to no good,
On the watchout for thugs in Lugs who be out for blood

Your fully loaded glock tightly gripped between your arms
Imagination's running wild when you see me, just a teen
Already got a lawyer to protect you from police

Zimmerman, and his racist sentiment,
Couldn't tell a homebound brown skinned kid from a criminal convict.
