Once Upon a Time in Canarsie ILL BILL (Ft. Goretex)

[Intro]:
A full-on FBI involved shootout on the streets of Canarsie, Saturday, video shows ambulances and police everywhere

[Chorus: ILL BILL x2]:
Once upon a time in Canarsie
My name's BILLY, I grew up where the sharks be

[Verse 1: ILL BILL]:
Over here the Goons will cut your fingers off for a diamond ring
With dreams of survivin’ the projects to die a king
And even more humble than that just to buy a crib
I can remember always wanting that when I was a kid
Praises grandma always lived in the projects
Whеn she died my uncle Howiе inherited her apartment
It was cool at first the OG Tony moved in
A Hell's Angel, a great guy, who used heroin
Used to sell me and my friends butterfly knives and nunchucks
Switchblades and fireworks for a quick buck
But just as quick as he appeared he was gone, found him dead in Howie's apartment with a syringe in his arm
Around the same time crack was the new drug
My uncle’s new love, within a month he was the new plug
Until the night he nodded out, shooting dope, while cooking coke, the stove top exploded choking from the smoke
And flames everywhere and he heard the fire trucks
Mad confusing situation still high as fuck
Six story window seen the firefighter climbin' up
Pointing to the trampoline below saying "time to jump!"
