You know they got me trapped in this prison of seclusion[00:00:24]
Happiness living on tha streets is a delusion[00:00:27]
Even a smooth criminal one day must get caught[00:00:29]
Shot up or shot down with tha bullet that he bought[00:00:32]
Nine millimeter kickin' thinking about what tha streets do[00:00:35]
To me[00:00:37]
Cause they never talk peace in tha black community[00:00:39]
All we know is violence do tha job in silence[00:00:41]
Walk tha city streets like a rat pack of tyrants[00:00:43]
Too many brothers daily heading for tha big pen[00:00:46]
*s comin' out worse often when they went in[00:00:48]
Over tha years I done alot of growin' up[00:00:51]
Getten drunk thrown' up cuffed up[00:00:53]
Then I said I had enough[00:00:55]
There must be another route way out[00:00:56]
To money and fame I changed my name[00:00:59]
And played a different game[00:01:02]
Tired of being trapped in this vicious cycle[00:01:03]
If one more cop harasses me I just might go psycho[00:01:05]
And when I gettem I'll hittem with tha bum rush[00:01:07]
Only a lunatic would like to see his skull crushed[00:01:10]
Yo if your smart you'll really let me go G[00:01:13]
But keep me cooped up in this ghetto and catch tha Uzi[00:01:15]
They got me trapped[00:01:19]
(Trapped uh)[00:01:20]
(Uh uh they can't keep tha black man down)[00:01:22]
They got me trapped[00:01:25]
(Trapped uh)[00:01:26]
(Naw they can't keep tha black man down)[00:01:27]
(Trapped uh)[00:01:31]
(Trapped uh)[00:01:33]
(Uh uh they can't keep tha black man down)[00:01:34]
You know they got me trapped[00:01:36]
(Trapped uh)[00:01:38]
(Naw they can't keep tha black man down)[00:01:39]
(Trapped uh)[00:01:41]
They got me trapped[00:01:42]
Can barely walk tha city streets[00:01:43]
Without a cop harassing me searching me[00:01:44]
Then asking my identity[00:01:45]
Hands up throw me up against tha wall[00:01:46]
Didn't do a thing at all[00:01:48]
I'm tellin' you one day these suckers gotta fall[00:01:49]
Cuffed up throw me on tha concrete[00:01:50]
Coppers try to kill me[00:01:52]
But they didn't know this was tha wrong street[00:01:53]
Bang bang down another casualty[00:01:55]
But it's a cop who's shot there's brutality[00:01:56]
Who do you blame [00:01:59]
It's a shame because tha man's slain[00:02:00]
He got caught in tha chains of his own game[00:02:02]
How can I feel guilty after all tha things they did to me[00:02:04]
Sweated me hunted me[00:02:07]
Trapped in my own community[00:02:09]
One day I'm gonna bust[00:02:10]
Blow up on this society[00:02:11]
Why did ya lie to me [00:02:13]
I couldn't find a trace of equality[00:02:14]
Work me like a slave while they laid back[00:02:15]
Homie don't play that[00:02:17]
It's time I lett'em suffer tha payback[00:02:18]
I'm tryin' to avoid physical contact[00:02:20]
I can't hold back it's time to attack Jack[00:02:21]
They got me trapped[00:02:24]
(Trapped uh)[00:02:27]
(Uh uh they can't keep tha black man down)[00:02:33]
They got me trapped[00:02:38]
(Trapped uh)[00:02:41]
(Naw they can't keep tha black man down)[00:02:43]
(Trapped uh)[00:02:47]
(Uh uh they can't keep tha black man down)[00:02:47]
You know they got me trapped[00:02:50]
(Trapped uh)[00:02:51]
(Naw they can't keep tha black man down)[00:02:52]
(Trapped uh)[00:02:54]
Now I'm trapped and want to find a getaway[00:02:55]
All I need is a G and somewhere safe to stay[00:02:57]
Can't use tha phone[00:02:59]
Cause I'm sure someone is tappin' in[00:03:00]
Did it before[00:03:01]
Ain't scared to use my gat again[00:03:02]
I look back at hind site the fight was irrelevant[00:03:04]
But now he's tha devils friend[00:03:05]
Too late to be tellin' him[00:03:07]
He shot first and I'll be damned if I run away[00:03:08]
Homie is done away I should of put my gun away[00:03:10]
I wasn't thinkin' all I heard was tha ridicule[00:03:12]
Girlies was laughin' Tup sayin "Damn homies is dissin you"[00:03:15]
I fired my weapon[00:03:18]
Started steppin' in tha hurricane[00:03:19]
I got shot so I dropped[00:03:20]
Feelin' a burst of pain[00:03:22]
Got to my feet[00:03:23]
Couldn't see nothin' but bloody blood[00:03:24]
Now I'm a fugitive to be hunted like a murderer[00:03:26]
Ran through an alley[00:03:29]
Still lookin' for my getaway[00:03:30]
Coppers said freeze or you'll be dead today[00:03:31]
Trapped in a corner[00:03:34]
Dark and I couldn't see tha light[00:03:35]
Thoughts in my mind was tha nine and a better life[00:03:37]
What do I do [00:03:40]
Live my life in a prison cell[00:03:40]
I'd rather die than be trapped in a living hell[00:03:42]
They got me trapped[00:03:44]
(Trapped uh)[00:03:45]
(Uh uh they can't keep tha black man down)[00:03:47]
They got me trapped[00:03:52]
(Trapped uh)[00:03:52]
(Naw they can't keep tha black man down)[00:03:54]
(Trapped uh)[00:03:57]
(Trapped uh)[00:03:58]
(Uh uh they can't keep tha black man down)[00:04:00]
You know they got me trapped[00:04:02]
(Trapped uh)[00:04:04]
(Naw they can't keep tha black man down)[00:04:05]
(Trapped uh)[00:04:08]
Let's go man let's go get outta here trapped[00:04:10]
