5
But it's still Wu-Tang, you heard?
6
This goes out to all the political prisoners
7

8
[Shyheim]
9
Stay on top comrade, cuz the bottom is crowded
10
The bottom is bout it, on the bottom it pops everybody wildin'
11
On a mission wantin' the riches and the baddest bitches
12
Ghetto chemists, gloves and masks in the kitchen
13
Dope and cut mixing, the bottom, somebody's mother's addicted
14
The bottom's black and hispanics in prison, the bottom's the unprivileged
15
The top is the drop, the top is the yacht
16
The top is this fly here, Cardier watch
17
Another coffin with the body of my friend in it
18
An untimely death, and I can't quite, comprehend it
19
Whoever told you, being a thug is fun, lie
20
Many nights in my cell, late at night I cried
21
So ashamed of myself, from myself I tried to hide
22
Thought the high would ease the pain, but it didn't
23
I smelt the death in the airs, walkin' through the halls of Clinton
24
God borns build to destroy, build to destroy borns God
25
[Interlude: Shyheim]
26
I wrote it for a pound in my palms
27
Borns a bullet in your heart, motherfucker
28
Shit, just listen, nigga
29
I ain't askin' y'all niggaz to dance
30
I ain't askin' y'all niggaz to sing along or nothing homey
31
Listen to your boy, fool
32
[Shyheim]
33
Fuck the messenger, pay attention to the message
34
About this oppression, after descretion, of the department of corrections
35
I'm a felon in they crooked institutions, so I'm considered a slave
36
According to the constitution, thirteenth amendment
37
Officers try to discover your loved ones, when they come and visit
38
And phone calls be ridiculous, three ninety nine for the first
39
And nineteen cents, these additional minutes
40
Behind these cold walls, these d'evils, be killin' people
41
Like it's legal, tax payers, this is what your money goes to
42
State prisons got bigger budgets than schools
43
Keep 'em dumb and lock 'em up, warehouse, double bunk and stack 'em up
44
White cracker, on the top of the roof, shot me dead for spreadin' the truth
45
Will I go down in history like Malcolm, get me my own boulevard
46
That my own black peoples, will go and sell crack on
Shyheim - On & On (Explicit)
