[Verso 1]. Late night coolin' with my homies drinkin' Hennessey and cold brew. after smokin' stopped in Oakland got the munchies for some soul food. so we stopped to get a bite to eat at the local bar-b-q. It's just another boring Monday and theres nothing else to do. now as we stepped out of the car i heard someone behind me fighting. so i turn to look and find out whats the cause of this excitement. the brother was a dope fiend and the other was a dope man. and the dope man had an AK said he'll spray and he's not jokin'. well it seems to be the dope fiend owed the dope man for his product. and he swore if he did not pay he would end up getting shot up. now i could not walk away cause i got caught up in the scene. wondering what would happen to this poor and helpless fiend. well my homie Michael Cooley said let's go and make our order. what's the use in watchin two men stand out here fight over quarters. while i walked inside the diner and all the Dope Fiends waived to me. heard the sound of several gun shots and i ran outside to see... (What's Going On?). [Chorus]. Another gun shot rings (What's Going On?). Another siren sings (What's Going On?). Another mother cries (Yo what's Going On?). Cause another innocent died (Yo what's Going On?). Another gun shot rings (What's Going On?). Another siren sings (What's Going On?). Another mother cries (Yo what's Going On?). Cause another innocent died. [Verso 2]. all the people in the diner ran outside to see the big show. it was just another party for them to see just who they would know. but for me a held concern i wanted to see the outcome. would the mother see her son tonight or would she live her live without one. i made it to the streets i almost cried right on the spot. not only had the fiend died but a small girl had been shot. my heart could not take no more i felt a tear roll down my face. that was daddy's bullet but she took it in his place. (Chorus). [Verso 3]. tried to make my way to the crowd so i could go help the baby. she could barely speak but she was (?) mister could you please save me. so i screamed out someone help me but i dont think they could hear. and if they did they didnt care oh how i hated everyone there. the baby lied here dying and i wondered what could i do. the camera men and newspapers had come to get their entidies. to them its just a story and they cant see the tradgety. to them it doesn't matter cause it aint it wasnt their family. i dont think ill be back cause itll never be the same here. so i wipe away the tears and leave the scene the way i came here. those people say its crazy and the poor could have been finer. ill never forget the night at dopefiends diner. (Chorus). do do do do do do do etc.
