Prisoner of Hip Hop, America & The State of Mind.
Lyrics
Verse 1
Yo, im trapped in the industry, its like an Abyss/
Its like im handcuffed and chained from my legs to my wrist/
they make bullshit music trynna tarnish our wits/
then they brush off our shit cause our styles dont fit/
but im a outsider, 100 miles and running/
but was caught, now im trapped in this underground dungeon/
its crazy, why im trapped behind these bars/
banished for trynna take back whats rightfully ours/
mainstreamers run free, with all the opportunities/
weak messages, that ruin our community/
the run hip hop, its nothing new to me/
cause the shits been going on since the 21st Century.
Its time that we change our ways/
and we break these chains for our kids today/
free your mind be more then a listener/
or you'll end up, just another prisoner.
Verse 2
Yo, im trapped in america, send me back to africa/
cause it feels like attica, but it seems that im stuck/
but the fact is, i cant get out/
no matter how i try man i cant get out/
important issues come up, they only seem to cover it/
only way to freedom, is to overthrow the government/
in this country i was tried and confined/
they wanna hold me down cuz i look pass the lies/
if you think your free its obvious your ignorant/
its not hard to see were living in bush prison/
its comin to an end, hes takin it slow/
were all pacin back and forth waiting in death row.
Its time that we change our ways/
and we break these chains for our kids today/
free your mind be more then a listener/
or you'll end up, just another prisoner.
Verse 3
Im trapped in a cage but its only in a state of mind/
im unable to escape cause im in a bind/
those who wanna bring me down need to get in line/
but if your coming unarmed its a waste of time/
man im looking for a savior not a damn favor/
i try to pray, but he just say see you later/
free your mind, be more then a listener/
or you'll end up, just another prisoner.
