Jimi The Fly
Jimi the fly, he couldn't decide, was crossing a deadly line
Feelin' the heat, the word on the street was a contract for his life
He knew all along, if he sung the song, he'd scratch doing time
Stepped up to bat, squealed like a rat, now he's running for his life
He thought it was sealed, he was making the deal
When the feds brought down the sting
Under the knife, he was looking at life unless he turned the family in
He made up the play with the crooked d.a., never had to serve no time
Jimi the fly, organized crime
Nowhere to hide, scared deep inside and the walls were closing in
He made the mistake, now it's up to fate, and the fear was setting in
Feeling the strain, he then changed his name with a hand from Johnny Law
They moved him out west, with a bullet proof vest, but you can't Escape the mob
Jimi the fly was living a lie on the corner of 8th and 3rd
The life of a fink as he swallowed his drink, now his vision was slightly blurred
As he left the bar, drivin' up in a car were the suits that covered thugs
They fired their rounds, now dead on the ground lies a bloody soaked Jimi the bug
Jimi, o Mosca
Jimi, o mosca, não conseguia decidir, estava cruzando uma linha mortal
Sentindo a pressão, a conversa na rua era um contrato pela sua vida
Ele sabia desde o começo, se cantasse a canção, ia se ferrar na prisão
Foi pra cima, gritou como um rato, agora tá correndo pela sua vida
Ele achou que tava tudo certo, tava fechando o negócio
Quando os federais desceram a pressão
Sob a faca, ele encarava a vida, a menos que entregasse a família
Ele armou o plano com o promotor corrupto, nunca teve que cumprir pena
Jimi, o mosca, crime organizado
Sem lugar pra se esconder, com medo por dentro e as paredes se fechando
Ele cometeu o erro, agora depende do destino, e o medo foi se instalando
Sentindo a pressão, então mudou de nome com uma ajudinha da Lei
O mandaram pra oeste, com um colete à prova de balas, mas não dá pra escapar da máfia
Jimi, o mosca, vivia uma mentira na esquina da 8ª com a 3ª
A vida de um traíra enquanto ele engolia sua bebida, agora sua visão tava meio embaçada
Ao sair do bar, dirigindo um carro estavam os caras que cobriam os bandidos
Eles dispararam, agora no chão, um Jimi, o inseto, ensanguentado.
