Cellus Hamilton - Law & Order lyrics
Law & Order Written By: Marcellius Preston Hamilton Intro: I would heed yo instruction But I'm too busy buzzin I'm feelin free off the freedom To make my own decisions I know the law that was written I'm addicted to sinnin It's like the devil got in em But please don't tell the choir VERSE: I'm the first born entrusted to hold the family name Life in living color Then teach my brothers No Damon wayans CHURCH! That's where I first started rapping and running things CHURCH! That's where I got conscious about my inner mane CHURCH! And so the struggles came Sin was easy to avoid When I ain't know a thing But the older I got Colder I got So did the block Next thing I'm noddin off the novacane Mic mic mic mic check See this Sleep ain't the cousin This sleep is just like d**h I had a heart made of stone Tryna fix it with stone And everytime id right my wrongs I'd get hit with a stone So I ain't showing up to church no mo It's full of Hipocrits You don't know how many people I lost Up in the pews Evil spewed Cuz we ignant and lost The preacher the boss He fired me before I got off How you gone fire me? When I got bills? Signed many checks that My account caint cash Now Hustlin be the way Ima Milk that cash cow Dolla dolla bill y'all Dolla dolla bill y'all Being broke you make split decisions No safe s** Let her know her grandchild Is a baby not a pay check I committed one way too many offenses I broke the law and must pay back with interests Law & order. Law & order HOOK: I be running from the law Like I'm running from the law But I'm running from the Lord like I keep breaking it I keep breaking it I be running from the law Like I'm running from the law But I'm running from the Lord like I keep breaking it I keep breaking it VERSE: Back to the story where we begin The only way to freedom Is starting right at the end You only get to freedom If you acknowledge yo flaws You'll forever be a slave Until you master the fall Of man A fallen man Yes I am him Prepared for business My tie is thin My righteousness Is heightened when The fight begins Mayweather... With a right to chin I'm writing this Literally. Penning my pain literally Like A prisoner did with a Rome, Italy Paul. In a world full of chaos Had tranquility He beholded the prince of peace Man literally But you proceeding with the law That came way before the law They now uphold for eternity I committed one way too many offenses I broke the law and must pay back with interests Law & order HOOK: I be running from the law Like I'm running from the law But I'm running from the Lord like I keep breaking it I keep breaking it I be running from the law Like I'm running from the law But I'm running from the Lord like I keep breaking it I keep breaking it
