[Intro: Krizz Kaliko]
~#**************#~
The Martini
~#**************#~
In movie terms, directors use this phrase
~#**************#~
To describe the last shot of the day while on set
~#**************#~
The stories you are about to hear are true
~#**************#~
Names have been kept the same to reflect the Strange
~#**************#~
This is the Martini..
~#**************#~
[Verse 1: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
This is Sam
~#**************#~
He was so in love with her
~#**************#~
But she was young and so that put her off in a jam
~#**************#~
Though she was sweet as a yam
~#**************#~
She wanted to explore other options with her man
~#**************#~
Straight sending Sam into a rampage
~#**************#~
And no matter what his fam says
~#**************#~
Hes lost without this woman and dont wanna live any damn ways
~#**************#~
Now hes thinkin, if he aint gon live, she aint gon live
~#**************#~
And the other mans mercy, he aint gon give
~#**************#~
This what love do, it cops a .38 snub to
~#**************#~
Knock on your door, and take somebody that used to love you
~#**************#~
Rub you, the wrong way, then its blood true
~#**************#~
Love through, shes slug one and hes slug two
~#**************#~
Then on a rainy evening, with a panicked feelin
~#**************#~
Went to her home and looked in the window and Sammy sees them
~#**************#~
The doors between her and the Necromancer
~#**************#~
And what you think is gon happen if she answers?
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Krizz Kaliko]
~#**************#~
Take a drink, its more than what you think
~#**************#~
I gotta let you know, dont plan on letting you go
~#**************#~
But if you have to leave, thats where well end the scene
~#**************#~
This is the Martini, last shots for you or me
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
Yo, this is Isaiah
~#**************#~
I guess he was, Id say a
~#**************#~
Ladies man, everyone used to call him the KCI Playa
~#**************#~
Flying multiple chicks in, give the stick then dismiss them
~#**************#~
But somethins gonna happen thatll twist him
~#**************#~
He fell in love with a beautiful black woman
~#**************#~
But he ended up having a couple problems with that woman
~#**************#~
Talkin to other men, did it behind his back on em
~#**************#~
Facebook, computer love, crept on the Mac on em
~#**************#~
Now hes salty, cause he found the woman he loves is faulty
~#**************#~
He told her at the very beginning, “Dont you ever cross me”
~#**************#~
Now that she did it, he plans to do something unlawfully
~#**************#~
Get a gun off the street, because he was treated so awfully
~#**************#~
One bullet for her, one bullet for him
~#**************#~
Crimes of passion, aint no more pullin for them
~#**************#~
And the worst way, we broke apart, it really hurts lady
~#**************#~
Ive gotta go, but yo, you gotta go first baby
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Krizz Kaliko]
~#**************#~
Take a drink, its more than what you think
~#**************#~
I gotta let you know, dont plan on letting you go
~#**************#~
But if you have to leave, thats where well end the scene
~#**************#~
This is the Martini, last shots for you or me
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: Tech N9ne]
~#**************#~
This is Brian
~#**************#~
He was a rebel and stayed on another level
~#**************#~
And had no intentions of dying
~#**************#~
He loved Kim a lot, above them was not
~#**************#~
But a jealous ex-husband would love them to rot
~#**************#~
I guess he loved Kim still
~#**************#~
His only thoughts him, them, kill
~#**************#~
‘Cause he a coward motherfucker
~#**************#~
On Christmas Eve he broke in and waited in they house for hours
~#**************#~
Crazy motherfucker!
~#**************#~
Brian pulled up with Kim and little Alissa in the car
~#**************#~
Saw a shadow in the house from afar and said, “Wait”
~#**************#~
Got out the car, opened the gate
~#**************#~
Walked in the house and her fucking ex sealed my niggas fate
~#**************#~
That was my best friend, bitch-ass nigga
~#**************#~
Walked out the house and shot Kim right in front of Alissa
~#**************#~
Then he saved the last shot for him, blast!
~#**************#~
Now you better hope I dont go to hell, because Ima be on your ass!
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Krizz Kaliko]
~#**************#~
Take a drink, its more than what you think
~#**************#~
I gotta let you know, dont plan on letting you go
~#**************#~
But if you have to leave, thats where well end the scene
~#**************#~
This is the Martini, last shots for you or me
~#**************#~
