In West Philidelphia,
Born and raised,
The shooting ground is where Sergeant Johnson
Spent most of his days.
Shootin' out, maxin,'
Relaxin,' all cool,
And shootin' out targets
Outside of the school.
When a couple of Spartans,
Who were up to no good,
Started making trouble in his neighborhood.
I got in one little fight and Masterchief got scared,
And said 'You're movin' with Captain Keyes and Cortana in the Pillar of Autumn.
I begged and pleaded with him day after day.
But he packed my suitcase and sent me on my way.
He gave me a kick and then he gave me my ticket.
I put my walkman on and said, 'I might as well shoot 'em.
First class, yo this is bad.
Drinking organic fluid out of a champagne glass.
Is this what the Marines of the Pillar of Autumn living like?
Hmmmmm, this might be alright.
But wait I hear they're prissy, bourgeois and all that.
Is this the type of place that they should send this cool marine?
I don't think so.
I'll see when I get there.
I hope they're prepared for the prince of the Pillar of Autumn.
