How to Format Lyrics:

• Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
• Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
• Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
• Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
• If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]

Dayvon Bennett, popularly known by his rap name King Von, was arrested in 2014 with a Black Disciple member by the name of Michael Wade, for the first-degree murder of Malcolm Stuckey and two attempted murders of other civilians. Von was set free, but Wade allegedly snitched to prosecutors about the crime and is still facing time. This song describes King Von’s experience and thought process upon learning of Wade’s status as a rat.
