Killer Mike - Cain & Abel Lyrics
[Intro:]Yaknow, I grew up with five sisters and no brothersI be in Sunday school, they tell us stories about Cain and AbelYou know, the first murder was committed by one brother to another brotherI looked around my neighborhood as a child and I saw the crime and violenceAnd I said wow, how could two people that love each other bring this into the worldGod bless em![Verse:]Two brothers, a single mother, a father that loved emBut not enough to leave the streets and make their momma a husbandThe only males in their life was a couple of cousinsThat their momma had babies cuz she was strugglin'But typical ghetto shit, the cousins was hustlin'But should I say halfway, cuz they got high like they're customersThe oldest boy was Cain and the youngest was AbelAbel distracted thugs, came to Cain off the tableThey decided to? Team and serve the fiendsLike pushed it to the malice, they be up to the greenFurnished their apartment like a palace, made their momma a queenAbel was only 12, Cain barely 13No idea of the evil that the streets would bringInfatuated by images on the big screenLike Nas and it was written in hash filled dreamBy 17 they was on they grindThey were listening to old-school rap from momma's timeBought myself an Uzzi and my brother A. 9Bought myself an Uzzi and my brother A. 9It's what Cain said as Abel walked by his sideInto Canonroll's pawnshopCain bought himself an ar15 and his brother a GlockThrough the years they would spray it, they kept pain on the blockTill every square foot? Was lockedMore money, more murder, more mobs raised to the topBut like the Chambers brothers, like the Flinnery boysWhen you're cut from the same cloth, made from the same stockSometimes you can't share the same space at the topThese young brothers retired their young motherAbel opened businesses in the name of his motherCain dropped the big moneybags to his motherAnd once a week they sat down for Sunday supperShe told em one Sunday how she loved em and she hugged emSensing something's wrong, they asked her what's her troubleShe answer 'child give me rings, riches and way more''But there's one thing that my heart truly prays for'Cain said momma, don't say, stopGave her 100 k cash, told her, lady go shopAbel looked at his mother and the water in her eyes'That's nothin', baby, I'm done flippin' the pies'Cain looked at his brother with fury up in his eyesLocked him and he socked him in his left and right eyeAnd he hit him and he bit him and he split him in twoAll he said while he beat him was 'why she love you? 'The more momma yell stop, the more hate he would take inAbel was Remello, and Cain was Wayne NacenThe love's gon' get you, so it's back to the GlockIn the middle of the struggle, all we heard was pop[Outro:]Unlike Remello, Abel was not able to survive that shotUnlike Remello, Abel was not able to survive that shot
