Sitting in the courtroom, tune on the stand
Hoping that his story get believed by a man
Took his life from him he didn’t even understand
Victim of they system it was all in they plans
Police under oath but be lying on the stand
Say he shot him down seen a gun in his hand
Tell me how a cell phone look like a pistol
Swept under the rug as a up resolved issue
His momma wanting justice but she still gon' miss him
Wishing she can have him back just so she can kiss him
Federal conviction rate 98%
Meaning they can take your life with none of the evidence
If the state give you life boy you gotta do all that
Praying for appeal now you hoping you crawl back
Lynching with no rope, nigga, that’s what you call that
Our prisons obsolete, I just want to ask y’all that, yeah
Slave to our tables, no, we don't know why
Yeah we're listing to the devil, no, we don't know why
Oh naw, another prison system, no, we don't know why, yeah
For you and me to live in, no, we don't know why, mhm
Attorney want to win like he trying to get a ring
Cut a nigga time but first they make him sing
Even paid lawyers playing on the same team as the DA and the judge nigga shit ain’t what it seem
A public defender won’t get you shit a conviction
Ain’t trying to discredit them ones handeling they business
Cutting off your hair it ain’t gone change your complexion
I know you nigga lost let me give you some direction
Seen the face tatts now they making a connection
Cooperate for they crime pat em down then arrest em
We hate our own skin but this melanin a blessing
Judge give you 50 years call it teaching you a lesson
Doing all the labor they paying you a dollar
But they making mills read the message In the bottle
Educated scholar doing time in Angola
Tell 'em abolish the prisons and free all the soldiers yeah
Slave to our tables, no, we don't know why
Yeah we're listing to the devil, no, we don't know why
