bodyguard But don't forget the
day it's sunny but it'll be foggy And in the
funeral, you'll be singing a
new tune May your soul rest on the
moon (?Jack in wood spoon!!?) In Channel Seven, you said: "Death before Cut" You killed so many that your conscience ended up whattup? (WHAT!!) Aiyyo black men, you're dying by a
