Lyrics

[00:24.50] You know they got me trapped in this prison of seclusion
[00:27.31] Happiness, living on tha streets is a delusion
[00:29.44] Even a smooth criminal one day must get caught
[00:32.50] Shot up or shot down with tha bullet that he bought
[00:35.38] Nine millimeter kickin' thinking about what tha streets do
[00:37.94] to me
[00:39.44] Cause they never talk peace in tha black community
[00:41.76] All we know is violence, do tha job in silence
[00:43.63] Walk tha city streets like a rat pack of tyrants
[00:46.13] Too many brothers daily heading for tha big pen
[00:48.88] Niggas comin' out worse often when they went in
[00:51.19] Over tha years I done alot of growin' up
[00:53.32] Getten drunk thrown' up, cuffed up
[00:55.13] Then I said I had enough
[00:56.82] There must be another route, way out
[00:59.89] To money and fame, I changed my name
[01:02.13] And played a different game
[01:03.32] Tired of being trapped in this vicious cycle
[01:05.32] If one more cop harasses me I just might go psycho
[01:07.90] And when I gettem, I'll hittem with tha bum rush
[01:10.71] Only a lunatic would like to see his skull crushed
[01:13.21] Yo, if your smart you'll really let me go G
[01:15.84] But keep me cooped up in this ghetto and catch tha Uzi
[01:19.02] They got me trapped
[01:20.08] (Trapped uh)
[01:22.52] (Uh uh, they can't keep tha black man down)
[01:25.65] They got me trapped
[01:26.96] (Trapped uh)
[01:27.96] (Naw, they can't keep tha black man down)
[01:31.02] (Trapped uh)
[01:33.58] (Trapped uh)
[01:34.77] (Uh uh, they can't keep tha black man down)
[01:36.90] You know they got me trapped
[01:38.08] (Trapped uh)
[01:39.40] (Naw, they can't keep tha black man down)
[01:41.52] (Trapped uh)
[01:42.52] They got me trapped
[01:43.34] Can barely walk tha city streets
[01:44.40] Without a cop harassing me, searching me
[01:45.58] Then asking my identity
[01:46.46] Hands up, throw me up against tha wall
[01:48.02] Didn't do a thing at all
[01:49.21] I'm tellin' you one day these suckers gotta fall
[01:50.83] Cuffed up throw me on tha concrete
[01:52.46] Coppers try to kill me
[01:53.65] But they didn't know this was tha wrong street
[01:55.40] Bang bang, down another casualty
[01:56.71] But it's a cop who's shot there's brutality
[01:59.02] Who do you blame?
[02:00.27] It's a shame because tha man's slain
[02:02.46] He got caught in tha chains of his own game
[02:04.71] How can I feel guilty after all tha things they did to me
[02:07.71] Sweated me, hunted me
[02:09.15] Trapped in my own community
[02:10.52] One day I'm gonna bust
[02:11.84] Blow up on this society
[02:13.08] Why did ya lie to me?
[02:14.46] I couldn't find a trace of equality
[02:15.96] Work me like a slave while they laid back
[02:17.77] Homie don't play that
[02:18.52] It's time I lett'em suffer tha payback
[02:20.46] I'm tryin' to avoid physical contact
[02:21.65] I can't hold back, it's time to attack Jack
[02:23.52]
[02:24.26] They got me trapped
[02:27.26] (Trapped uh)
[02:33.07] (Uh uh, they can't keep tha black man down)
[02:35.70]
[02:38.72] They got me trapped
[02:41.60] (Trapped uh)
[02:43.97] (Naw, they can't keep tha black man down)
[02:46.79] (Trapped uh)
[02:47.21] (Trapped uh)
[02:47.96] (Uh uh, they can't keep tha black man down)
[02:50.15] You know they got me trapped
[02:51.33] (Trapped uh)
[02:52.64] (Naw, they can't keep tha black man down)
[02:54.58] (Trapped uh)
[02:55.71] Now I'm trapped and want to find a getaway
[02:57.89] All I need is a G and somewhere safe to stay
[02:59.64] Can't use tha phone
[03:00.58] Cause I'm sure someone is tappin' in
[03:01.96] Did it before
[03:02.71] Ain't scared to use my gat again
[03:04.02] I look back at hind site the fight was irrelevant
[03:05.83] But now he's tha devils friend
[03:07.02] Too late to be tellin' him
[03:08.08] He shot first and I'll be damned if I run away
[03:10.14] Homie is done away I should of put my gun away
[03:12.77] I wasn't thinkin' all I heard was tha ridicule
[03:15.46] Girlies was laughin', Tup sayin "Damn homies is dissin you"
[03:18.71] I fired my weapon
[03:19.52] Started steppin' in tha hurricane
[03:20.46] I got shot so I dropped
[03:22.65] Feelin' a burst of pain
[03:23.83] Got to my feet
[03:24.77] Couldn't see nothin' but bloody blood
[03:26.40] Now I'm a fugitive to be hunted like a murderer
[03:29.09] Ran through an alley
[03:30.27] Still lookin' for my getaway
[03:31.58] Coppers said freeze, or you'll be dead today
[03:34.58] Trapped in a corner
[03:35.77] Dark and I couldn't see tha light
[03:37.33] Thoughts in my mind was tha nine and a better life
[03:40.02] What do I do?
[03:40.89] Live my life in a prison cell
[03:42.58] I'd rather die than be trapped in a living hell
[03:44.96] They got me trapped
[03:45.83] (Trapped uh)
[03:47.77] (Uh uh, they can't keep tha black man down)
[03:52.08] They got me trapped
[03:52.71] (Trapped uh)
[03:54.58] (Naw, they can't keep tha black man down)
[03:57.21] (Trapped uh)
[03:58.58] (Trapped uh)
[04:00.89] (Uh uh, they can't keep tha black man down)
[04:02.90] You know they got me trapped
[04:04.02] (Trapped uh)
[04:05.46] (Naw, they can't keep tha black man down)
[04:08.27] (Trapped uh)
