Lyrics by:Ice Cube/Arthur Ross/Leon Ware/Victor Nathan Taylor/Mychal Kae Simmons[00:00:01]
Composed by:Ice Cube/Arthur Ross/Leon Ware/Victor Nathan Taylor/Mychal Kae Simmons[00:00:01]
In any country prison is where society sends it's failures[00:00:03]
But in this country society itself is failing[00:00:07]
Today how you like me now I'm in the mix[00:00:31]
It's 1986 and I got the fix with the chicken and a quota[00:00:33]
Got the baking soda let the water boil workers all loyal[00:00:37]
Dropped out the twelveth[00:00:41]
Cuz my wealth is shorter than a midget on his knees[00:00:42]
Now I slang keys[00:00:44]
Infest my hood with crack cuz I'm the mack[00:00:45]
Take a nation of millions to hold me back[00:00:47]
Too big for my britches and I got *******[00:00:50]
Now I'm hittin' switches ****** want my riches[00:00:53]
Used to get 18 when my G was alive now a key is 13-5[00:00:55]
'89s the number another summer[00:01:00]
Police ain't get no dumber[00:01:03]
Streets dried up used to think it would last[00:01:05]
But being a king-pin is a thing of the past[00:01:07]
They tried to blast me for selling a boulder[00:01:10]
Now I got my *** in Minnesota[00:01:13]
Got my own crew it's on brand new[00:01:15]
Damn what can I do[00:01:17]
Today[00:01:20]
Already done stack me half a mill ticket[00:01:39]
Bought a house next to prince so now I can kick it[00:01:41]
Now I got ends wavin' to my friends rollin' in my Benz[00:01:44]
Goin' to see the twins play at the dome[00:01:48]
Police are tappin' my mobile phone[00:01:50]
I'm almost home[00:01:53]
Gettin' excited indited spent a grip and a year tryin' to fight it[00:01:54]
Lawyer got paid plea no contest[00:01:58]
And everything I own got repossessed[00:02:01]
Now take a look at the dust[00:02:04]
And I'm happy cuz I only got 36 months[00:02:06]
Never picked up a book[00:02:09]
But my arms are 16 inches ****** look[00:02:11]
Can't wait for '92 so I can get with my crew[00:02:14]
And see what can I do[00:02:17]
Today[00:02:19]
Phucked up in the pen now it's ninety-fo[00:02:28]
Back in LA and I'm bailin' in the dough[00:02:31]
Everybody now I gotta start from scratch[00:02:33]
So where to work at and ****** smirk at[00:02:36]
Me say ain't nuttin' poppin from here to the LB[00:02:38]
What you tell me[00:02:41]
No it ain't crack and everybody's jackin' for a coupe[00:02:43]
Cuz they sent in the troops[00:02:46]
Even tho I got muscle that ain't my hustle[00:02:48]
Takin' ****** **** in a tussle[00:02:50]
No skills to pay the bills[00:02:53]
Takin' 'bout education to battle inflashion[00:02:55]
No college degree just a dumb *** G[00:02:58]
Yeah you ***** who me[00:03:00]
I got a baby on the way damn it's a mess[00:03:02]
Have you ever been convicted of a felony yes[00:03:05]
Took some advice from my uncle fester[00:03:07]
All dressed up in polyester[00:03:10]
Welcome to McDonalds may I please help you[00:03:12]
**** what can I do[00:03:15]
Today[00:03:17]
The white man has broke every law known to man to establish AmeriKKKa[00:03:27]
But he'll put you in the state penitentary he'll put you in the federal[00:03:31]
Penitentary for breaking these same laws now we gonna look and see if[00:03:35]
