1
[Paris]
2
As I, bend the corner bass beatin the back (yeah)
3
I sink into the mood and watch the people react
4
Same gritty conversation, same bomb-ass rap
5
Same shitty-ass conditions, same grip on a strap
6
Same pigs, same crackers, same niggaz united
7
Buyin into the stereotypes that we fightin
8
Buyin into the stereotypes of us bein
9
Buck dancin ass sex-crazed murderous fiends
10
Still fuckin up these home-schooled simpleton haters
11
Same people that display us wanna kill and betray us
12
Same division, mo' religion, never readin just prayers
13
More bounty hunters, Imus' and Jenas and Kramers
14
Still blame us for the cause of the way that we act
15
While lullabies of celebrities still keep us distracted
16
Keep the focus off the President and shit in Iraq
17
Keep us scapegoatin immigrants and niggaz on crack
18
Keep the propaganda comin, keep impressin the kids
19
They only care about us when its time to enlist
20
But when them politicians talk about protectin' the fetus
21
What it mean when they send us off to war and mistreat us?
22
Tax cuts for the rich ain't no snitchin allowed
23
'Specially if it's piggies that we talkin about
24
As they murder motherfuckers comin up in your house
25
Seem that violence is the only thing they listen to now
26
It's the trap
27
[Chorus: unknown singer]
28
Look at all the gangsters ride
29
Sometime it seem we born to die
30
What will it take to make it right?
31
With no chance, no promise of advancement, hey
32
Don't wanna lose another life
33
We've seen too many of us die
34
Let's put this thing together right?
35
Take a stand, and plan to get ahead
36
[Paris]
37
Now let's, get this shit clear once and for all
38
Ain't no terrorist that's bigger than America's balls
39
Ain't no terror more terrible than terror we brought
40
And ain't it terrible the terror's all America's fault, I'm askin
41
What would you do if you knew of it all?
42
If you knew all our ememies were made for the part?
43
If you knew that everything they do is part of a plot
44
that's pre-agreed upon with us, so you always support?
45
Claimin, pa-tri-ot but can't never explain
46
why babies killin babies in America's name
47
Why black and brown bodies, why murder and pain?
48
Why these motherfuckers laughin all the way to the bank?
49
That's gangster~! But we don't see the truth of it still
50
Don't see the truth the way the ruthless murder and kill
51
Ain't no doubt about it bruh, that's big pimpin fo' real
52
And you askin' why I'm out here servin' 'em still
53
It's the trap... it's the trap... it's the trap... c'mon!
54
[Chorus]
55
[Paris]
56
The way I see it, the only way to change it is pain
57
Seems they only pay attention when we splatterin brains
58
Seem they never seem to hear us when we march and complain
59
Or when when we protestin, hopin pigs don't whup us again
60
Look here, see how fast money come for the schools
61
And how quick them motherfuckers bring home the troops
62
How the coonin and derogatory shit in the music'll go away
63
when they see the people snatch 'em and shoot 'em~!
64
Just watch! You'll see, shit'll change on a dime
65
Best believe for politicians ain't gon' be no more hidin
66
Ain't gonna be no mo' lyin, don't wanna see 'em in court
67
Don't wanna sue 'em, rather do 'em, shoot 'em up in his Porsche
68
Bring the balance back where the people making the rules
69
Where the government is scared of what the people might do
70
and not the other way around, y'all got it confused
71
Was ignored, but you listenin now! We on the move sayin
72
[Chorus]
73
[Paris - ragga chat - repeat 2X]
74
A write tah, CONGRESS is what they say it's about
75
I'm sayin, FUCK de letta, wet her leavin de house
76
I get my, GUN and stun 'em run dem out of de town
77
I'd rather, shoot now Congressman a, shoot now Congressman
78
I, VOTE but never stop the problem around
79
Dem soldier, ONLY murderin the black and the brown
80
I get my, GUN and stun 'em run dem out of de town
81
I'd rather, shoot now Congressman a, shoot de President a
82
