Yo to my people doing time

Xzibit, Juvenile, y'all need to


Nature, Ja Rule, Reptile come on


Bring the heat




Look, I'm inhumane livin' in this house of pain


Stuck with a thousand street hustlers down on they luck

Repeat felons caught up with the death I was sellin'


And for the past three months yo I can still hear my victims yellin'




But I can't listen to my conscience it's nonsense, if I didn't shoot


I'd be the ^!$$% in the suit in the box under the ground


Fox chased by the hound locked permanent frown Xzibit get down

By liftin' iron by the pound for the tough individual





Runnin' run his mouth throw some hands with the General

Walk one day in the shoes of a criminal


Death disease keep your luxuries to a minimal


I'm not talkin' about weed, jewels and Bentleys




I'm talkin' about clean clothes, hot food and Dentyne


See what I mean livin' with the scum of the earth

Hit with plenty of time to adjust to life on the inside


Wyclef




You got me $#&@ed up I'm innocent


Look I ain't do this %#@! you don't want to hear my side


But you believin' that (*##$

You makin' my nerves bad I need to smoke me a jo'





'Cause I know y'all ain't even thinkin' 'bout lettin' me go

Where my lawyer, ^!$$% told me Juv' I can't do nothin' for ya


Y'all go tell that to my mother and my father


But they gonna cause y'all so don't you even bother




You know that %#@! ain't right that (*##$ didn't see nothin'


'Cause it was dark at night but I guess us blacks

Look the same to y'all passin' ^!$$%s around like a game of ball


This is my third felony plus my third strike

Man I ain't goin' home I got 25 to Life




QU New York, you try to criticize me I criticize you

Been the same mutha$#&@a since in high school


Any beat I shed light to with crazy wattage

Blankin' out bought my first eight ball for eighty dollars




Learned who not to trust grew obnoxious

So ^!$$%s start to hate me same time the boys in blue


Watch us circlin' but they don't slow down take you to court

Think you seein' Judge Joe Brown they just actin'

Indy's throwin' Tyson back in another year




$#&@in' with a ^!$$%'s career I @@#! back at bust in the air

Give me space beats with plenty bass drink my Hennessey straight


Till I hurl out third world clout I'll take ^!$$%s hearts

And turn killers into girl scouts works of art

Picasso from the Hydro roller slash hustler CEO slash retired soldier




Kill or be killed behind the wall 40 day short

Still the thought of murderer true to the sport

I bang with the best ^!$$%s them career criminals


Now I'm in with these youngins lookin' to feel me out



Hollerin' 'bout how they gonna hit on me now

^!$$%s is real wild bangin' before trial


New kicks new trial I don't give a $#&@

I'm playin' the yard ox taped to my nuts




Ready to self destruct Lord I don't wanna die

But what powered your honor to hit me with 25

I know that real recognize every hustle

And die with these ^!$$%s in the struggle

Ya feel me



Oh God, shells loaded in the semi auto quoted

Unknown cat never voted picture me on the scene

Huntin' for greens like Mike Meyers trick or treatin' on Halloween

Mashed down in the fatigues servin' the fiends



Kill or be killed metal pipes under the sleeve

In the city slicker bust checks or puff cess

Ruffneck love liquor and act figures bloodsport on the streets

No gloves pullin' knives out the fridge handin' out cold cuts



UGH streets real thug so recognize thug close yo' eyes thug

You 'bout to die thug

Call the President I'm blowin' up ya residence

Spill acid on the corpse to clear the evidence

Protestors outside screamin' free Gotti

Guard your body SWAT teams is waitin' with the shotty



Y'all need to

Y'all need to



For all my people doin' time keep your head up

Wyclef Jerry "Wonder"

New millennium, new millennium come on
