Jamesy Boy Page #2
If you ain't out for fame,
get out the game
'Gainst the grey
thug about my name
Grab your bad, get your hoodie
on and get your girl
We'll be back
when they mention
Though we paintin'
the world
To the kids,
say yo, yo, yo
Gettin' crazy
out for fame
So, Mary...
Do you get high?
I have an idea.
Which ones?
Okay, seriously, stop.
Oh my God, relax, Mary.
It's not like we're gonna steal
your mom's jewellery.
Um...
yes we are.
All right, my bad, ha-ha!
We are.
F*** you.
You know, it's a shame you got
that thing on your ankle.
'Cause Roc would love you.
Who's Roc?
Manny and I do some work for him.
Making runs, sh*t like that.
You mean like drugs?
Ha-ha!
Wow.
What?
When you talk
about it, it sounds boring.
Anyone in the game on the East side
knows he's got that product.
And he's got 'em shook too,
'cause Roc don't
back down from nobody.
F***.
It's cold out.
Hey, James.
You know what?
Any time he wants...
your PO can come to this house
and search through your sh*t.
You think he won't haul your ass
right back into lockup?
So tell me, what is this?
Did you have people over?
Were you drinking alcohol
in my house?
What about school?
You know the judge is about
to hear your appeal.
And we are so close.
So close to what?
I've been stuck at home
for two months.
And they're still fighting
to keep me out.
They don't want me.
Do you know how hard
I'm working for you?
You know what?
F*** school!
I'm tired of being a charity case.
I really am.
You know, I wouldn't even go
back to that f***ing place now
if they begged me!
You smart ass, you don't mean that.
I know you don't mean that.
Oh yeah?
If you're so smart, where's Dad?
Huh?
Okay, that's real
mature and, you know,
I'd love to sit around
and whine all day,
but I'm actually trying to live up
to my God damn responsibilities,
so go ahead...
f*** up your life!
See if I care.
So...
Shower time.
Time to wash those asses.
Get a move on.
Move, move.
James.
James, look out!
Move out.
Chris!
They've been at
it before, maybe five minutes.
The water in the showers
We're just giving them a bit
before we go in
and let them wear each other out.
Go!
Go, go, go, get in there.
Medical!
I need medical!
Stat!
A medic!
Who brought in the shank?
The kid in critical condition
with two stab wounds...
he stole a car.
First offence.
Zero record of violence.
His mother comes
together with his girlfriend.
I'm not a snitch.
So what?
Think your pals aren't gonna talk?
You don't think that bean eater
is gonna say the shank was yours?
I looked up your arrest report.
You got away that night.
Clean.
You wouldn't even be in here
if your girlfriend
hadn't sold you out.
Jesus Christ.
Her statement was 12 pages long.
F*** you!
Nobody's following this bullshit
code of honour but you.
Inside.
Put your hands through.
I either comin' like
Noah 'Chu lookin' for, yo?
I need to talk to Roc.
What'chu got, man?
Well?
I need to make some money.
Yo D, who the f*** is this?
I'm a friend of Crystal's?
He wasn't talking to you, man.
Crystal?
Get down here.
Now!
B*tch talks too much.
You call something for this kid?
I only met him once.
Not exactly a ringing
endorsement, is it?
I got a general rule
that everybody
on my crew's old enough
to have hair on their d*cks.
Yo, I'm not leaving.
Oh, man.
Excuse me?
Look, I get it.
You take some
weak-ass kid under your wing,
and you look weak too.
But I'm not asking for a favour.
I got brains.
Plus I can hustle.
And I don't scare easy.
Woof woof woof.
You okay running errands?
Cleaning the bathroom,
sh*t like that?
Yeah.
Good.
'Cause we do this,
you'll be my b*tch.
Take it or leave it,
non-negotiable.
I take it.
My b*tch!
Hello?
Hey.
It's me.
James, what the f***?
looking for you.
They pulled Holly out of class.
I'm not coming home.
We can still find a
way to fix this.
I love you, but there's nothing
else you can do for me.
I know you think I don't
understand, but whatever it is,
you've decided
you have to do right now
Just tell me where you are
and I'll come get you, boy.
Tell Holly to keep her head up.
Hey...
What was that?
Yo, this is bullshit,
I can help, man.
You don't know sh*t
about packing no ammo.
We'll be done with these
faggots in ten minutes.
Your job is to be
waiting right here
with the key in the ignition.
Okay.
Pop willie pop
Guess what?
Aw, freestyle
Bottom of the gun
and is so dramatic
Like the oceans crashing
and the former waves
Imma pour, it's gonna rain
And when I pop my style
You get transformed from the
name to a civilized man
With a mic in the hand
selling with gat
You wanna strap somethin' else
follow me rap
Listen
Yo, running back doors
Running back doors
Hold it!
You're not so tough now, are you?
Huh, tough guy?
Huh?
You really thought you was gonna
come in here and take our sh*t?
Ow!
Oh, sh*t.
Ah!
What the sh*t?
Manny, grab the sh*t!
Shut the f*** up.
Holy sh*t!
You, look at me.
Lights out, motherf***er.
Things just got real for you, kid.
Let's go.
Go!
Bet you'd like to stick
your dick in that, huh?
I'd love to.
I bet that kid doesn't even know
what a p*ssy looks like.
I do.
It looks like Manny.
Ha-ha.
Oh.
Thank you.
Oh.
Look.
The world's a jungle.
Right?
It's ugly.
That's just how it is.
Guys like me and you survive,
'cause we're the f***in' lions.
That's half Manny's
take from tonight.
You earned it.
But don't take it unless you
want what comes with it.
Well, I want it.
No.
I'm not sure you do.
I want the f***in' money, Roc.
Okay then.
Yes.
Yo, shut up a minute!
To Jamesy Boy.
Kid can kick up some f***in' dust.
I gotta take a piss.
Yeah, you go do that.
Yo, Mercedes!
I wanna introduce you
to my new boy.
Sudden yeah
But you don't know
I gotta have to try again
The argument
And just like that
It's gone
You crazy kid
You let it show
You're perfect
how you got it
And so forget it
And just like that
It's gone
It's gone
So I heard you had
a really good day today.
Roc's not so easily impressed.
I guess he recognizes talent.
That was on the phone
with my mom today.
I told her I'm not coming home.
A sudden hit
And you don't know
You don't have to
do it again
And just like that,
it's gone
You wanna dance?
Yeah.
I do.
You know what the worst
thing was about living with my mom?
It was the constant reminder
we weren't gonna make it.
Seeing her putting
more and more hours
Busting her ass
trying to work a system
that had let her down from day one.
Now my kid sister's
in trouble at school.
The teachers all decide
she's a bad kid.
She gets labelled and she's f***ed.
Because that's how the world
works for people like us.
