Black Steel - Tricky[00:00:00]

Written by：Carlton Ridenhour/Eric Sadler/James Henry Boxley III[00:00:01]

I got a letter from the government the other day[00:00:20]

Opened and read it it said they were suckers[00:00:22]

They wanted me for their army or whatever[00:00:25]

Picture me giving a damn I said never[00:00:28]

Here is a land that never gave a damn[00:00:31]

About a brother like myself because they never did[00:00:33]

I wasn't with it but just that very minute[00:00:37]

It occurred to me the suckers had authority[00:00:39]

Cold sweatin' as I dwell in my cell how long has it been[00:00:42]

They got me sittin' in the state pen[00:00:46]

I gotta get out but that thought was thought before[00:00:48]

I contemplated a plan on the cell floor[00:00:51]

I'm not a fugitive on the run[00:00:53]

But a brother like me began to be another one[00:00:56]

Public enemy servin' time they drew the line y'all[00:00:59]

They criticize me for some crime[00:01:03]

I got a letter[00:01:16]

I got a letter[00:01:19]

I got a letter[00:01:22]

Picture me giving a damn I said never[00:01:25]

It occurred to me the suckers had authority[00:01:36]

Cold sweatin' as I dwell in my cell how long has it been[00:01:39]

They got me sittin' in the state pen[00:01:42]

I gotta get out but that thought was thought before[00:01:45]

I got a letter from the government the other day[00:01:50]

Opened and read it it said they were suckers[00:01:53]

They wanted me for their army or whatever[00:01:56]

Picture me giving a damn I said never[00:01:58]

Here is a land that never gave a damn[00:02:01]

'Bout a brother like me and myself because they never did[00:02:04]

I wasn't with it but just that very minute[00:02:07]

It occurred to me the suckers had authority[00:02:09]

Cold sweatin' as I dwell in my cell how long has it been[00:02:13]

They got me sittin' in the state pen[00:02:16]

I gotta get out but that thought was thought before[00:02:18]

I contemplated a plan on the cell floor[00:02:21]

I'm not a fugitive on the run[00:02:24]

I'm not a fugitive on the run[00:02:30]

Many switch in[00:02:41]

Switch on switch off[00:02:42]

Many switch in[00:02:44]

Switch on switch off[00:02:45]

Many switch in[00:02:49]

Switch on switch off[00:02:50]

Many switch in[00:02:52]

Switch on switch off[00:02:53]

Many switch in[00:02:55]

Switch on switch off[00:02:56]

Nevertheless they cannot understand that I'm a black man[00:02:58]

And I could never be a veteran[00:03:01]

On the strength the situation's unreal[00:03:03]

I got a raw deal so I'm lookin' for the steel[00:03:06]

Lookin' for the steel[00:03:10]

I got a letter from the government the other day[00:03:15]

Opened and read it it said they were suckers[00:03:18]

They wanted me for their army or whatever[00:03:20]

Picture me giving a damn I said never[00:03:23]

Here is a land that never gave a damn[00:03:26]

'Bout a brother like me and myself because they never did[00:03:29]

I wasn't with it but just that very minute[00:03:32]

It occurred to me the suckers had authority[00:03:34]

Cold sweatin' as I dwell in my cell how long has it been[00:03:38]

They got me sittin' in the state pen[00:03:41]

I gotta get out but that thought was thought before[00:03:43]

I contemplated a plan on the cell floor[00:03:46]

I'm not a fugitive on the run[00:03:49]

I'm not[00:03:52]

I'm not[00:03:58]

I'm not a fugitive on the run[00:04:01]

But a brother like me began to be another one[00:04:03]

Public enemy servin' time they drew the line y'all[00:04:06]

I got a letter from the government the other day[00:04:57]

Opened and read it it said they were suckers[00:04:59]

They wanted me for their army or whatever[00:05:02]

Picture me giving a damn I said never[00:05:05]

Here is a land that never gave a damn[00:05:08]
