[Bit 1]

He would force me and my sister to go in.
I used to cry and throw a fit, but he wouldn't care.
He would just yell at us and tell us to keep on swimming.
Yeah, and I remember my grandma used to scream out loud
that she wished that we would drown.
Man, can you imagine that?
Me and my sister, we were just babies.
Getting baptized in church.
True woman, that granny.
She's dead now.

[Bit 2]

I actually got kicked out of a funeral.
Funny story, I don't know if it was
'cause I was wearing a baseball cap
in a Kobe Bryant jersey and shirts in a gold chain.
I mean, they did tell us to dress all black.
Don't get blacker than that.
