VERSE 1
I’M FACIN’ CASES / I’M GETTIN’ WASTED
LATELY ALL I’M DOIN’ IS FACIN’ CASES
SO I STAY WASTED / SMASHIN’ THESE CASES
FUCK THESE FACES / NOW HERE’S A TASTE OF
HOW JAKE WAS / EYIN’ TO RUSH ME / BUST ME
TAKE ALL MY REEFER / AND SNUFF ME
THE NARCS HAD A PLAN / OH SHIT MAIN
DIDN’T KNOW I HAD THAT COCAINE
ON MY PERSON / AND IN MY SYSTEM
NOW I’M SHACKLED / AND WISHIN’
I AIN’T DO THAT SHIT / AND BLEW THAT SHIT
THAT SNOW WHITE SHIT
BUT I WAS GETTIN’ LIFTED / GETTIN’ TIPSY
WHEN THEM FAGGOTS CAME AND SNATCHED IT
ILLEGALLY / SEARCHED AND PATTED
MY PANTS / THAT WERE SAGGIN’
SAID I HAD THE RIGHT TO REMAIN / IN THE BACK OF THE WAGON
THEN THEY SENT ME ON A HAUL
ON MY WAY TO COUNTY / WITH NO PHONE CALL
ALL THE WHILE / I WAS SAYIN’ / FUCK THE LAW
NOW / WHO THE FUCKS GONNA FREE ME
WHO THE FUCK WANTS TO BE ME
HERE COMES THE NURSE / TESTIN’ FOR THE T / B
I THINK IT’S GONNA BE AWHILE / TIL MY WIFE SEES ME
THIRTY TO A POD / FIGHTIN’ OVER MATS
THE ART OF GETTIN’ ROBBED / AND HOW TO HUSTLE CRACK
WHEN YOU’RE BEHIND BARS / YOU HEAR A LOT OF SMACK
NOW / BOOK ME ALREADY / GOD DAMN
(DJ NIX)

SHE WON’T STOP / TIL SHE’S FUCKIN’ AT THE TOP
NOW THAT BITCH / IS TRYIN’ TO MAKE ME ROT
THANKS A FUCKIN’ LOT

BUT I’M REALLY REELIN’ / IN THIS LEGAL SYSTEM
AND BUSH IS A BITCH / THAT’S WHY I’M IN THIS

THINKIN’ IT’S ALL TERRORISTS / THE MAN COULD CARE LESS
ABOUT THEIR OWN PEOPLE
TIL WE SPARK A REVOLUTION / THIS IS THE SEQUEL
U.S. IS AN INSTITUTION / GOTTA BRING DOWN THE STEEPLE
TIRED OF HIDIN’ OUT / LOOKIN’ THROUGH THE PEEP HOLE
LAND OF THE FREE / NEVER PAID SHIT
THEY STOLE THE LAND / AND THE SLAVES AND THE SHIPS

LUCKY FOR THIS RHYME / I GAIN A PIECE OF MIND
THEY DON’T RULE BY CHOICE / THEY RULE BY DESIGN
AND WHAT THE FUCK ARE WE LIVIN’ WITH
THE MEDIA JUST KEEPS GIVIN’ IT
