Judgment Day

Come judgment day 
y'all niggaz tryna run away 
Hidin' behind the clouds 
from niggaz with much clout 
But, as they say: 
when the going gets tough, 
the tough get bombed. 
Stuffin' the leafy rod 
with a sticky green wad. 
A concoction that burns  
and blows sweeter than 
fine Eastern incense 
Open a fortune cookie, 
what's it say: 
I gotta hit dat. 
And to be honest, I think 
it's just what you needed. 
A reality check to the forehead 
to stop the mental bleeding.
