Alright, I can follow most of the story in this song, but I get a little lost toward the end. I understand they are doing some kind of stick-up and but they arrive at the apartment when it's empty and wait for the person or people to come home. This is where I get lost. There's too many pronouns and not enough names for me to figure out who's doing what to who. What does he mean by "Meet the black Lex Luthor"? Who did he shoot in the hand that starts "screamin' like a bitch"?
I have a similar problem with Ghost's "Shakey Dog", Biggie's "Niggas Bleed", and a few Mobb Deep songs, where they start using too many pronouns (which I understand has more to do with fitting the story in rhyme form) and not enough specific names, as well as slang I'm unfamiliar with for the verbs, so that I can't tell exactly what the chain of events is.
