9 Times Out Of 10 Lyrics by Dallas Woods

2018

I'm really not that scared of nothing
But if police roll up then I'm running
'Cos 9 times out of 10 I'm up to something man
I blame it on the town that I grew up in
Blame it on the town that I grew up in
(That's the E.K., the E.K.)
Police, the police, they police themselves
Even with your hands up that don't mean they gon' help
If you young black and gifted they reach for the belt
If you young black and gifted you going to jail
My mama raised me well
Considering I was raised in hell
Raise the issue that most of these kids are raised in jail
No help, they had to raise themselves
Role model non existent
Usin' survival instincts
Trying to revive my history
Trying to give life to this albeit suicidal system
Feeling trapped [?] prison self-inflicted
Time is ticking
They need to make a decision whether it's going to be cemetery's or finding religion
If you're pigment is different
You fit the description
Then shift off to prision
That's how we livin'
I'm really not that scared of nothing
But if police roll up then I'm running
'Cos 9 times out of 10 I'm up to something man
I blame it on the town that I grew up in
Blame it on the town that I grew up in
(That's the E.K., the E.K.)
Police, the police, they police themselves
Even with your hands up that don't mean they gon' help
If you young black and gifted they reach for the belt
If you young black and gifted you going to jail
We used to play cops and robbers
Now we hate cops and doge 'em
Like excuse me Mr. Officer
With that gun and badge you seem to be Mr. Popular
I talk to you and your hands straight to where your pockets are Locked and loaded
Man only fear jail 'cos I'm claustrophobic
Other than that talk smack and get your dome split
Mother's gone away calling him like everyday
So for them I got to make it and let nothing get in my way
I see fellow Aboriginals
You see felons and criminals
Breaking stigmas political
I'm just painting the visual
I'm really not that scared of nothing
But if police roll up then I'm running
'Cos 9 times out of 10 I'm up to something man
I blame it on the town that I grew up in
Blame it on the town that I grew up in
(That's the E.K., the E.K.)
Police, the police, they police themselves
Even with your hands up that don't mean they gon' help
If you young black and gifted they reach for the belt
If you young black and gifted you going to jail
That's how we live it
Tha-That's how we live it
Shift off to prison
That's how we live it
Tha-That's how we live it
Shift off to prison
Role model non existent
Usin' survival instincts
Role model non existent
Usin' survival instincts
Role model non existent
Usin' survival instincts
Role model non existent
Role model non existent
A drug that saves lives
Black excellence
But the drugs in the street
That's black preference
I really prefer excellence
For real
Man if the truth hurts I'mma watch and burn
I stay lit brother watch and learn
Uh
Yeah
Brother watch and learn
I stay lit brother watch and learn
Man if the truth hurts I'mma watch and burn
I stay lit brother watch and learn
Brother, brother, brother watch and learn
Mr. Woods at the spit come and watch and learn
