[00:00:00] Prison (监狱) - X-Clan

[00:00:01] Slavery is back In fact it was never abolished The 13th Amendment to the US Constitution abolished slavery Except in prison

[00:00:10] At The current rate of incarceration By the year 2010 the majority of all African American men between 18 and 40 will be in prison The State as their captor

[00:00:21] It's gonna take people who are willing to fight

[00:00:23] Not people who wanna negotiate with the enemy

[00:00:26] Prison prison prison prison

[00:00:48] The pits of life contain men

[00:00:50] Where reform and discipline unlabeled enslaved men

[00:00:52] From rights of passage to stacking arraignments

[00:00:55] To sporting the iron bars disgracing the pavements

[00:00:58] It's just like cavemen from the pages of myth

[00:01:00] Cohabiting in darkness while we wallow in filth

[00:01:03] Generations of jewels who trickle down to abyss

[00:01:06] As blood stains these prisons like the pyramid glyphs

[00:01:08] Guilty or innocent agents of government

[00:01:11] Treat our hoods like pickin grounds (schools to tenements)

[00:01:14] All sag in uniform as thugs they represent

[00:01:16] Racial stereotypes a profile for the oppressed

[00:01:19] When you witness genocide everyday you get the hint

[00:01:22] That the ghettos are cold like a lab experiment

[00:01:25] As young women and men street hustle before they're ten

[00:01:27] Graduating from juvenile halls then up the river to the

[00:01:30] Prison prison prison prison

[00:01:41] Fear and oppression plague generation next

[00:01:44] The house of regret locks down our street vets

[00:01:46] Regroup and repair we lost sight of our mission

[00:01:49] With honor we ride for justice we must remain out the

[00:01:52] Prison prison prison prison

[00:02:02] We trade wisdom for greed we trade light for wealth

[00:02:05] Fools wait for lock down to find knowledge of self

[00:02:08] I bang hard on the left I never fiend for cream

[00:02:10] If you borrow you owe it if you take it you know you're goin to the prison

[00:02:14] The penalty for criminal states

[00:02:16] If you're herb or bird man you're steady runnin from jakes

[00:02:19] I circle with street soldiers that build and plant stakes

[00:02:21] Free the land from Babylon my skills educate

[00:02:24] In these United Snakes cause there's no debate

[00:02:27] With these restrictions of law makes us communists of hate

[00:02:29] New world of new focus the streets need to deal with new purpose

[00:02:33] The eldership is lacking the cirus of guidance it's deep

[00:02:36] The prison state of mind will have you dead in the street yelling P I M P

[00:02:40] If you're stressed fake playa cards to rest

[00:02:43] Tell youths to stay in school research and manifest

[00:02:46] Avoid

[00:02:46] Slave ways from the whip to the gauge

[00:02:48] From streets to the cage we stand judged cloak and dagger

[00:02:51] Let twelve heads decide if you keep you're street swagger

[00:02:54] Or be between bars as this crazed world gets madder

[00:02:57] Come and heed funkin' lesson wise dome the mad hatter

[00:02:59] Rock an onk off my dome cause I deal with life matters

[00:03:02] It's straight genocide of my people and what's sadder

[00:03:05] We bake devil's pie and put our heads in the batter

[00:03:08] Prison prison prison prison
