[Verse 1] I don't know no lies, I don't owe no truth But both come through every time I'm in the booth like (1, 2) Check who Spit on the riddim and I bless you Unless you think great then you might stagnate On a champagne rampage for your campaign Brothers barely win but they still wanna celebrate With great choice thinking they getting freed? Damn shame Emancipate my faith when prison cells replicate like cancer rates? Educate my name – we in hell without having to respirate Don't ask if I know my place In the eyes of the Lord I can show my face So far I make it ‘fore I can't ignore my hate Take it back to the day's way before my shame [Chorus] This shame is all I feel Try so hard to keep it real (But you will never understand what we go through to be a man in the land of the underhand) So what's the deal? [Verse 2] f** hooks New generation be like “f** books” Gwarn like some coked-up crooks It don't make sense if it don't make waves Plus Po-Po push ‘til you don't behave – oh, what a shame s**s like shucks when you're stuck in a world this way Feeling more like it's a cage Time's out Too bad guess you never got to find out Got you jacked up/backed up/slapped around Come through bet they pat you down, look ask around ‘cos it sounds like war to me, if I could know I would act accordingly Could if I would but I can't so I shan't Can't believe you think I'm leaving it to chance
