[00:28.660]I got a letter from the government the other day
[00:31.620]I opened and read it
[00:32.940]It said they were suckers
[00:34.620]They wanted me for their army or whatever
[00:36.860]Picture me given’ a damn I said never
[00:39.740]Here is a land that never gave a damn
[00:41.860]About a brother like me and myself
[00:43.720]Because they never did
[00:45.100]I wasn’t wit’ it but just that very minute…
[00:47.620]It occured to me
[00:48.840]The suckers had authority
[00:50.620]Cold sweatin’ as I dwell in my cell
[00:52.680]How long has it been?
[00:53.72]They got me sittin’ in the state pen
[00:55.720]I gotta get out – but that thought was thought before
[00:58.380]I contemplated a plan on the cell floor
[01:00.940]I’m not a fugitive on the run
[01:02.920]But a brother like me begun – to be another one
[01:06.380]Public enemy servin’ time – they drew the line y’allPublic enemy
[01:09.600]To criticize me some crime – never the less
[01:12.220]They could not understand that I’m a Black man
[01:14.840]And I could never be a veteran
[01:16.720]On the strength, the situation’s unreal
[01:18.860]I got a raw deal, so I’m goin’ for the steel
[01:31.620]They got me rottin’ in the time that I’m servin’
[01:34.500]Tellin’ you what happened the same time they’re throwin’
[01:37.180]4 of us packed in a cell like slaves – oh well
[01:40.420]The same motherf****r got us livin’ in his hell
[01:43.320]You have to realize – what is a form of slavery
[01:46.280]Organized under a swarm of devils
[01:48.840]Straight up – word’em up on the level
[01:50.940]The reasons are several, most of them federal
[01:53.740]Here is my plan anyway and I say
[01:55.820]I got gusto, but only some I can trust – yo
[01:59.000]Some do a bid from 1 to 10
[02:02.660]And I never did, and plus I never been
[02:03.800]I’m on a tier where no tears should ever fall
[02:06.620]Cell block and locked – I never clock it y’all
[02:09.240]‘Cause time and time again time
[02:10.880]They got me servin’ to those and to them
[02:13.640]I’m not a citizen
[02:15.040]But ever when I catch a C-O
[02:17.340]Sleepin’ on the job – my plan is on go-ahead
[02:20.020]On the strength, I’ma tell you the deal
[02:22.180]I got nothin’ to lose
[02:24.400]‘Cause I’m goin’ for the steel
[02:55.800]Dont you know I caught a C-O
[02:57.820]Fallin’ asleep on death row
[02:59.880]I grabbed his gun – then he did what I said so
[03:02.600]And everyman’s got served
[03:04.900]Along with the time they served
[03:06.400]Decency was deserved
[03:07.860]To understand my demands
[03:09.160]I gave a warnin’ – I wanted the governor, y’all
[03:11.760]And plus the warden to know
[03:13.200]That I was innocent
[03:14.360]Because I’m militant
[03:15.400]Posing a threat, you bet it’s f****n’ up the government
[03:18.400]My plan said I had to get out and break north
[03:21.040]Just like with Oliver’s neck
[03:22.280]I had to get off – my boys had the feds in check
[03:25.020]They couldn’t do nuthin’
[03:26.440]We had a force to instigate a prison riot
[03:28.620]This is what it takes for peace
[03:30.300]So I just took the piece
[03:31.960]Black for Black inside time to cut the leash
[03:33.980]Freedom to get out – to the ghetto – no sell out
[03:36.720]6 C-Os we got we ought to put their head out6
[03:39.520]But I’ll give ’em a chance, cause I’m civilized
[03:42.120]As for the rest of the world, they can’t realize
[03:44.480]A cell is hell – I’m a rebel so I rebel
[03:47.480]Between bars, got me thinkin’ like an animal
[03:50.060]Got a woman C-O to call me a copter
[03:52.720]She tried to get away, and I popped her
[03:55.180]Twice, right
[03:56.220]Now who wanna get nice?
[03:57.340]I had 6 C-Os, now it’s 5 to go
[04:00.000]And I’m serious – call me delirious
[04:02.56]But I’m still a captive
[04:04.60]I gotta rap this
[04:05.720]Time to break as time grows intense
[04:07.860]I got the steel in my right hand
[04:09.960]Now I’m lookin’ for the fence
[04:21.280]I ventured into the courtyard
[04:23.600]Followed by 52 brothers
[04:25.240]Bruised, battered, and scarred but hard
[04:27.180]Goin’ out with a bang
[04:28.400]Ready to bang out
[04:29.340]But power from the sky
[04:30.480]And from the tower shots rang out
[04:32.340]A high number of dose – yes
[04:33.920]And some came close
[04:34.820]Figure I trigger my steel
[04:36.020]Stand and hold my post
[04:37.420]This is what I mean – an anti-nigger machine
[04:39.780]If I come out alive and then they won’t – come clean
[04:42.400]And then I threw up my steel bullets – flew up
[04:46.660]Blew up, who shot…
[04:47.940]What, who, the bazooka was who
[04:50.180]And to my rescue, it was the S1W
[04:53.580]Secured my getaway, so I just got away
[04:55.880]The joint broke, from the black smoke
[04:58.200]Then they saw it was rougher than the average bluffer
[05:00.880]Cause the steel was black, the attitude exact
[05:03.580]Now the chase is on tellin’ you to c’mon
[05:06.100]53 brothers on the run, and we are gone?
