Two Zips & a Zippo Berner

[Verse]
You need to know that before the Cartels existed
Things worked differently in Mexico
The Narcotics game was made of lone wolf traffickers
Mostly Sinaloans who purchased permission
From the cops to run drugs in a particular city or territory
They called it the Plaza System, here's how it worked
Anyone looking to do business in the territory
Had to cut in the plaza boss, pay him a peso, or a toll
And if they chose not to trust me
The boss made his displeasure known
But here's the kеy, each plaza stood alone
Was it's own world eun by a cеrtified asshole
Who'd done enough dirt to get crowned
King of that particular piece of turf
The job tended to attract hard motherfuckers
So a scheme to convince a bunch of rival plazas
Led by trigger-happy sociopaths to work together
Take direction from some other dirtbag?
Yeah, right
