Opening:
A struggling mother with a child, hood aesthetics
Tera: this ain't it dawg, it gotta be more to life then just feeding ourselves everyday. Mufukas up town got stacks of buildings just pilling on top each other, while our country ass stuck in the middle of time.
Fila: yo ass be stuck in the middle of traffic every time the other side come roll around here
Tera: nigga it ain't my fault My people wanted to move all the way to the other side of the city
Fila: but it was yo fault fumbling the pack that we put our last 3 racks in nigga
( a car pulls up )
Tera: cops killin niggas now a days it was either the drugs or your brudda
Fila: you ain't my fuckin brudda nigga ( walk off )
Drug lord 1: hey kid come here
Fila: ( walks up to the car clutching his pocket )wats good unc
Drug lord 1: y'all know anybody around here tryna sell some dirt?
Fila: some dirt? By the way you sound you ain't familiar with the zones around here. This bottom block we don't kill our own community we protect it, we can get you thrax and pack of squares with a case of 9 mm but dirt? We don't believe in makin zombies
Drug lord 1: look here youngen, I'm very familiar with my surroundings, and by the way you sound you don't know who yo real elders are boy, makin dumb decisions don't make you any older nor will it give you the sense to understand when real power is in yo presence. Now I ran traffic through here back then, good business, very good business, only reason I stopped was to loan my power with the ones who run this whole freak show now. The only reason I'm back here is because some of my corn got picked outa my farm and I'm just tracing the crow feathers.
Fila: must got some good ass eyes to be tracking crow feathers all the way down here, it got bookoo birds around this bitch
Drug lord 1:so no one's selling dirt around here?
Fila: nah, I told you we protect ours
Drug lord 1: we'll see how long you can do that ( pulls off )
Tera: the fuck was that about?
Fila: some lick lookin for a high
Tera: damn wish we had that pack still
Fila: (looks at him)
Tera: yo look it's Tyson! YO TYSON!!!
Fila: come on
They run over to Tyson
