Thief's Theme

One, two
Check, one, two, one, two
Who got more style? The son do
Check, one, two

Yo, I'm hot like 95 Fahrenheit
On a summer night, tight spot, where bodies rot
Rats drink from water drops, in the streets nig-
Little kids scared cops, with red dots
Philosophical gangsta, with violent priors
Goin' back like black and white TVs, with pliers
Leanin' on broke-down cars, with flat tires

Flash iron, anybody tryin' on, the blocks I'm supplyin' on
Madicon, my peeps, tie balloons up
And swallow 'em and the P now got goons, lots of 'em
Cops see them and run, don't want no drama
Certain parts of the streets, the beast don't want a part of
Martyr, hood haunted like the Dakota
Where John Lennon was shot up, but he sang for peace

He begged for freedom, hanged with wild Jamicians
From Kingston, who drink Irish Moss
Listenin' to Peter Winston, Machintosh
Lightning hits the top of the church steeple
When I'm writin', semi-automatic, no hyphen
It's frightening

The thief's theme, play me at night, they won't act right
Understandable smooth shit, that murderers move with
The thief's theme, play me at night, they won't act right
Understandable smooth shit, that murderers move with
The thief's theme, play me at night, they won't act right
Understandable smooth shit, that murderers move with
The thief's theme, play me at night, they won't act right
Understandable smooth shit, that murderers move with

I take summers off, 'cause I love winter beef
Started '87, with the shotty in the sheep
Three-quarter length beige, dressed to kill
Bust a shell at the ground, pellets hit the crowd
Nobody like a snitch, everybody shut they mouth
Woolrich, Carhart, gunpowder stains
Smellin' like trees, sensimilla on the brain

Schemin' on ya girl's, bamboos on ya chain
Got ill up on the train, twistin' off a cap
Of a English in my vein, might of pushed you on the tracks
Deaf crack fiends, who can't speak, scream noises
'Cause she bought a jum of soap, from one of my boys, it's-
Just another day in the hood
And I'm, with some wild brothers, up to no good

We saw the movies, like Tony Montana, and 'em
But our style was let them pile then, we robbin 'em
Money dudes, make 'em come up out they shoes
Run they jewels, word is bond, where my man Nino goin'?
And I had to make a song, speakin' on my old life
For the thieves who come out at night

The thief's theme, play me at night, they won't act right
Understandable smooth shit, that murderers move with
The thief's theme, play me at night, they won't act right
Understandable smooth shit, that murderers move with
The thief's theme, play me at night, they won't act right
Understandable smooth shit, that murderers move with
The thief's theme, play me at night, they won't act right
Understandable smooth shit, that murderers move with
