[Defari:]
Its just so many things
in this life that I cant understand
Ill never be able to understand
cause theres no answer for em
The vultures be out though, know that
And they always gon be out
Cause theyre savages...
His arteries are punctured, they cant save his body
He got shot standin outside the party
He was only pickin up his son, he wasnt parkin
Niggaz drove by and let the shotgun bark at him
He died the same way as Malcolm and Martin
Just tryin to help people, instead of harm them
Mr. Youngblood, I know your soul hear me now
I know you sittin on a throne, I know you hear me now
I stood at King Hospital with emotion
Im doin music now, Pat still coachin
Say hello to John... I always thought
that what happened to you was dead wrong
It doesnt figure out, it doesnt figure in
A good bottle and I still dont understand
But thats how life goes, some bigger master plan
Well really never know, until the very end
[Chorus:]
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly...
[Defari:]
They jackin for Hondas, initiation
She never saw em comin, had no inclination
They shot into her back window at a red light
Kim, whyd that have to be you that night?
You was so cool, such a beautiful sista
Remember 55th in Oakland, all the tree we twist up?
They pulled you out the car that night and took off
The vultures struck again, another good person lost
Me and Scotty G went to the funeral
Service was foul, somethin we wasnt used to
We left and got some 40s of Old Gold
Went to the park and blew one to celebrate your soul
Had to do our own thing, the whole thing was mindblowin
To this day Im not knowin why...
[Chorus:]
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly...
[Defari:]
We went to school together, he was a good brotha
A Double Masters in Education, smooth brotha
Down for the youth, really shared his Pops passion
We used to go head up on Segas Live or Madden
He was from New York, but heres the irony
They found him dead, here in L.A. County
North off the 405, where they found him
Damn, my nigga was literally right around me
I wish he hollad, Id be with him when he pulled over
He fell victim to the sins of another vulture
Shot in the back of the head
My nigga Ennis couldnt believe you was really dead
It was on the news, Im tryin to call you
No answer, no reply, Im like "Nah dude"
This shit cant be, this heres a nightmare
But the truth dont lie, and its right there
[Chorus: x2]
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly
Loved ones die, loved ones cry
The vultures are out, the gun shots fly...
