[Chorus] |
|
I shot the sheriff |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Verse One:] |
|
I had to shoot the sheriff it was justifiable |
|
he mistaked me for somebody who was liable |
|
for all tha many murders l.a and war fields |
|
we keep makin war shields |
|
streets keep souls |
|
young brothers loose control |
|
I seem to maintain through this |
|
watch where ya kick it they'll put you in a twist |
|
and it aint nobody like my down ass hommie |
|
and tha police always tryin to pin some bullshit on me |
|
I keep away from fools |
|
they do crime and it attracts cops |
|
cops got guns and cuffs |
|
and cells to stuff you in |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Verse Two:] |
|
They tryin' to stick with some bullshit that I did not do |
|
you know who |
|
the boys in blue |
|
there they go with they assumpitons |
|
slaverys over let us have somethin' |
|
why you wanna pull me over? |
|
Cuz I'm bumpin? |
|
I just made a new song |
|
my profession is music |
|
your profession is protection with gats |
|
then use it on him when he's tryin' to take my life away |
|
I'm just tryin' to live my life today |
|
so I keep away from fools they do crime it attract cops |
|
cops got guns and cuffs |
|
and cells to stuff you in |
|
[Chorus] |
|
[Verse Three:] |
|
I shot the sheriff |
|
I didn't shoot the deputiy I didn't have to |
|
Cuz in this game they always tryin' to blast you |
|
and leave it to tha cops to find out who did the murder |
|
they harrase tha wrong clan and arrest tha wrong man |
|
the hommie day-dog got strapped but thats okay |
|
cuz I'm gonna work for life |
|
so he can see another day |
|
a hommies a hommie |
|
a fake is a snake |
|
straight game from tha pen from tha hommie jake |
|
so I keep away from fools they do crime it attract cops |
|
cops got guns and cuffs |
|
and cells to stuff you in |
