the king is dead

The Day the King Died

Smoking in North Philly

Dreamin of money with no digital

What hope is there for me?

If they caught the smooth criminal

A wind blows

From a Philadelphia field

Overgrown foundation

Where a building once was a shield

For the one way alley

We were sitting on

Car windows rolled down

Center City’s lights beyond

On the day the King died

The radio stations cried

And “I Want You Back”

Played into the hot night
