Say no to drugs but the governments' keep it

Running through our community, killing the unity

The war on drugs is a war on you and me

And yet they say this is the Home of The Free
34
But if you ask me its all about hypocrisy
35
The constitution, Yo, it don't apply to me

Lady Liberty still the bitch lied to me

Steady strong nobody's gonna like what I pumpin'

But its wrong to keeping someone from learning something
39
So get up, its time to start nation building

For suppressing and punishing my people

I charge you with robbery for robbing me of my history
48
I charge you with false imprisonment for keeping me
49
Trapped in the projects
50
And the jury finds you guilty on all accounts

I get sweated, They act as if asking questions is a crime
67
But forget it, one day I'm gonna prove them wrong

Cause it will strangle yeah
