DIRTY DIANA [ Paused ]

Back In Egypt's Land

My Mother Left Me And My Big Sister Royal Home Alone Every Night . Most Nights We Didn't Even Have Any Dinner . At The Tender Age Of 15 I Was Accustomed To Fending For Myself.  Whatever I Couldn't Get , Royal Got For Us . And Honestly , I Had To Lay In Bed And Think About What My Mother Even Looked Like . She Was Always Gone . Every Time She Did Finally Decided To Show Up , She Looked Oddly Different .

Egypt , Can You Come Here .

My Sister Needed Me As Usual . I Dragged Myself Off The Top Bunk And Slowly Walked To The Next Room. Even Though My Sister Was The Mother I Never Had She Always Told Me To Do Things I Didn't Necessarily Wanted To Do . And These Were One Of Those Nights ....

Yo E , Can You Run To The Store And Get Me Two Swisher Sweets , And Hurry Up Please , I'm Trying To Smoke .

I Just Shook My Head And Walked Back Into My Room . Hell I Didn't Mind Getting Things For Her , But Why Couldn't She Have Asked Earlier When The Sun Was Out . She Knows I Hate Going Outside At This Time Of Night . The D Boys & Night Rollers Were Out Like Clock Work . I Wasn't Scared , But I Was Nervous As Hell Walking Past Them.  I Could Every Pair Of Eyes Watching Me , Taunting Me With They're Stares .

Man , What The Hell You Doing Egypt . Hurry Up Girl . I Can't Eat Unless I Smoke .

I Walked Back In The Living Room With
A Pair Of Burgundy Tights And Black Tank Top On . It Was Hot As Hell Even At Ten O'Clock In Compton . Actually . It Was Always Hot.

I Grabbed The 5 Dollars Off The Table & Headed Towards The Door .

Ohhh , And Get A Two Liter Pepsi.  Thanks E . Love Ya !

I Walked Out The Door And Headed To The Front Of The Apartments . Everything Was Dark But It Sounded Like It Was 12 In The Evening. Women Were Out Selling Plates Of Food And Single Cigarettes , Young Boys And Grown Men Were Out Playing Dice , Gambling With The Last Dime They Had In They're Pockets . Even Kids Were Out Yelling And Riding Bikes . Yea This Was A Typical Summer Night In My Hood .

As I Walked Toward The Liquor Store , The Eyes Began To Pour All Over My Flesh . My Small Breast Were Touched With At Least 10 Pairs Of Eyes . 

Hey Lil Mama , What You Doing Out This Late , Come Here . Lemme Rap To You Real Quick

I Knew This Voice All To Well . Myles Carter . The Biggest Dumb Dumb In The Hood . Even Though He Was Dumb To Me , Every Woman Looked At Him Like He Was God Or Some Shit . My Mama Went Crazy Over Him . So Did My Sister And Every Other Female In The Neighborhood . But I Was Not About To Give Him The Time Of Day .

I Walked Past His Tall Dark Frame And Pushed Ahead Into The Store . Swisher Sweets And Soda And Then I Could Leave.

Aye Lil Baby , I Know You Heard Me. Come Here For A Second Love .

I Kept Walking And Looked For The Pepsi.  He Was Right Behind Me , Practically Breathing Down My Neck . I Stood There And Tried To Decide If I Wanted Cherry Pepsi Or Not .

Myles Stepped In Front of Me And Grabbed Two Pepsi's , Cherry & Regular . I Got 'Em Ma .

I Grabbed One Soda And Headed To The Front To Get The Swisher's .

Can I Get Two Regular Swisher's And This Soda .

The Cashier Looked At My Breast Then My Lips Before Ringing Me Up .

$4.92

I Sat The 5 Dollars On the Counter , Grabbed My Stuff And Walked Out .  Didn't Even Bother With The Change .

I Heard Myles Talking To The Cashier

Yea , Ima Get Some Of That Tight Pussy . She Gone Be Calling A Nigga Daddy When I'm Done ,

I Don't Even Think He Payed For The Pepsi.
