[Verse 2: Killer Mike]

Back in line JoJo^✦ spot Ivy^✦

Girl from the hood that he knew from NYC

TSA agent^✦ so she cleared him on the ID

Before^✦ he go to X-ray, he taking^✦ off his shades^✦

Taking^✦ off his jacket,^✦ arm out the sleeve

Reached in his pocket,^✦ oh shit, got weed

He done made it this far, what's Jo to do?

So he stuffed it in his pocket^✦ and he walked^✦ right through

(He walked^✦ right through?) He walked^✦ right through

Then the TSA agent^✦ say, "She pointing at you"

The old lady^✦ that had seen Jo cut line

Went to a officer and tried to drop dime

But Ivy^✦ wasn't having^✦ that, stepped to the copper^✦

Told him that the old lady's^✦ ID wasn't proper^✦

Now the old lady^✦ getting treated like a terrorist

Cop got his hand where her grey pubic hair it is

After^✦ this though she gonna^✦ have to see a therapist

JoJo^✦ found the situation hilarious

Threw the old lady^✦ deuces,^✦ heading to the train

Concourse A, headed^✦ to his plane

Arrived on time, they called^✦ the first class

Upgrade ticket^✦ took a little more cash

Jo's relieved, hes almost^✦ free

Can't wait to land in the NYC

[Verse 3: Killer Mike]

Seat belt's on, seat back up

Triple shot of Seagram's in JoJo's^✦ cup

A little too much, he felt the stewardess^✦ up

She said "Stop, sir!", he looks like "What?"

Gave a big tip then he headed^✦ to the bathroom^✦

When he got there, told her, "Hey, it has room"

Turned^✦ the bathroom^✦ into^✦ a smashroom^✦

She was hitting^✦ lines^✦ he was hitting^✦ from behind

Look up in the mirror^✦ saw Ghost another time

"Peace God, pardon God, I ain't see ya Wis'

Lean toward the mirror^✦ cause I gotta^✦ talk biz"

Ghostface told him, "Only^✦ twenty^✦ to LaGuardia^✦

When you get there, a car take you to Astoria^✦

You don't want the alphabet boys on call

So tell the stewardess^✦ to make a wheelchair^✦ call"

Wheelchair^✦ came, deboard plane

JoJo,^✦ couple old folks, and they canes^✦

Exiting the door he seen a dog walking slow

Couldn't dump the weed, nowhere to go

Turns out the dog sniffed out that blow

Good thing the stewardess^✦ a cokehead ho

Cause they bumrushed the bitch

And threw her ass to the flo'

Jo told the wheelchair^✦ boy, "Let's go!"

And Jo got away,^✦ that's how the story^✦ go

Rhyme Architecture: The verse utilizes a dominant AABB or AAAA couplet-heavy narrative structure that maintains a consistent pulse, allowing the internal rhymes to drive the momentum rather than relying solely on end-rhyme resolution.

Verified Doubles & Entendres

"Cop got his hand where her grey pubic hair it is"

① A literal description of a pat-down search occurring in the groin area.② A hyperbolic, satirical characterization of invasive TSA/police conduct during security screenings.

"Threw the old lady deuces"

① The physical act of making a peace sign or V-sign as a dismissive gesture.② Slang for leaving or walking away from a situation, signaling JoJo's escape from the conflict.

Exceptional rhythmic pocket maintenance

High level of narrative clarity and engagement

Strong character work and situational irony

Effective use of dialogue to advance the plot

Literal approach limits deep metaphoric complexity

Limited use of complex wordplay outside of the situational narrative

Predictable resolution at the verse conclusion
