Family '68 - Dan Bull, NemRaps

Brother, while you were here playing beer pong

I was dealing with the viet cong

Me and my familia, we are strong, a real bond

So string along, I’m gonna sing a song, now bring it on

Who are you?

Hey, hey, who are you?

Clay, I’m just a boy from the bayou

There’s a battle raging, man and nature

But if you can navigate the salivating alligators, Hell awaits ya

See you at Sammy’s place an hour later

And do a man a favour 'cause I’m outta paper

Grab the tab and pay the round

And get yourself a drink to drown your sorrows and a chaser

Down it straight and then head out into the town for capers

My knuckles got a couple scars from scuffles in bars

Over shuffled cards, I hustle hard, there’s a shovel in the trunk

Of my muscle car for when the trouble starts

Some dogs are only loyal 'til you pull the muzzle off

Visibly twitchy, there’s a reason you’re fidgety

Must be the midges, heat and humidity, breeding stupidity

Bitch!

We’ve no need for your sympathy

Concealing your bigotry beneath a sheet of duplicity

And revealing your inner beast

Down in the deep south, we do it differently

I mean if you’re feeling me

Dead in the middle of river row, little did we know

That we riddled two middlemen who didn’t do diddly

Oh, this is New Bordeaux, so what’s a few more schmoes

Asking for their ass kicked?

That’s their last trick

How’d you like the bottom of a swamp for a casket?

'Til you’ve had it all taken away, you’ll never know

The meaning of family

Once you’ve had it all taken away then all you want’s

To be in a family

Yeah, the new black mob, courtesy of Bourbon Street

Might not know me but you heard of me, certainly

The Marcanos tried to murder me but when I pull the heat

My people started rising like mercury

The Italian Mafia killed without mercy

So now, it’s time to turn this town topsy-turvy

If you in the family then you getting amnesty

We plan to bleed these heathens

From the city like a damn disease

New Bordeaux, my residency

And I can’t control what the residents see

So me and my conglomerates shall remain anonymous

I’m out for dead presidents to represent me

Put you in a coma not induced medically

Feed you to the creatures, not leaving a shred of evidence

Evidently, I need to break it down so lemme see

If you keep messing with me, you’ll be a swamp delicacy

The only cocktail you drink is a molotov

There’ll be a few scorched men in New Orleans

When we catch 'em nodding off

Bullets will be tossed across ya noggin

Keep on talking and we’ll pop you like a bottle top

And transport you out of state

We dump bodies before they can draw the chalk lines

You can vanish without a trace

Safe to say, my serrated blade’ll ruin y’all

Stabbed so many times, I got you looking like a voodoo doll

War is what it’s time for, go and grab a knife or a shotty

Turn a sight for sore eyes into an eye sore

Got your body floating downstream towards the ninth ward

Family isn’t who you’re born with, it’s who you die for

'Til you’ve had it all taken away, you’ll never know

The meaning of family

Once you’ve had it all taken away then all you’ll want’s

To be in a family
