《Uncle Bobby and Jason Keaton》歌词

[00:00:00] Uncle Bobby and Jason Keaton - Kendrick Lamar (肯德里克·拉马尔)

[00:00:11] I was sitting on the couch reading yellow paper

[00:00:14] A letter in reply

[00:00:15] 7 days later after I wrote 'em

[00:00:18] "Stay strong keep your faith in God " what I told him

[00:00:21] Hoping that he's listening

[00:00:23] Said that they tried to give him

[00:00:24] Like a hundred years

[00:00:26] What a coincidence I was bumping some Plies

[00:00:29] I can taste the salt from my tears

[00:00:32] As the water had start to flood on my eyes

[00:00:34] I know it gotta be hard being 21

[00:00:37] Doing time in the pen and your Gram's old

[00:00:40] Your brother's getting older

[00:00:41] And the streets is getting colder

[00:00:42] And your hoping

[00:00:43] That he's focused to stay on the right road

[00:00:45] Sleeping in a cell it's been 30 weeks

[00:00:48] Ain't recieved any mail

[00:00:49] It's cold and the hole stinks

[00:00:51] And you can't even blink without niggas testing your life

[00:00:54] As I read every word that you write I can only imagine

[00:00:59] Jason Keaton I can only imagine

[00:01:09] Life's about decisions man

[00:01:12] It's in your hand and you got it

[00:01:15] Just take control if you can

[00:01:17] It's in your hand and you got it

[00:01:20] Sitting on the couch that was my Uncle Bobby

[00:01:23] After he just got out 15 years to count

[00:01:25] Haven't seen the world in so long

[00:01:27] Haven't seen a girl in so long

[00:01:29] And before the sun came up he was gone

[00:01:31] Like a fiend off the best rock

[00:01:33] Trying to get his life together or what not

[00:01:36] Typed his name in the system

[00:01:38] And they couldn't find his identity

[00:01:39] Got it straight got a place

[00:01:41] Found some serenity

[00:01:42] Found a job

[00:01:43] Found his Mother's grave site

[00:01:44] Found a 40 ounce

[00:01:46] Then he found God

[00:01:47] Then he bounced

[00:01:48] Then he found a new chick

[00:01:49] Two kids wide hips

[00:01:50] Found something in her we didn't see

[00:01:53] Found this spot in Pasadena and shack with her

[00:01:55] An investment

[00:01:57] Then found guilty

[00:01:58] Somebody had yelled domestic

[00:01:59] Violence on my Uncle

[00:02:01] Was working with two strikes

[00:02:02] Only out a year now facing life

[00:02:04] I can only imagine

[00:02:07] That's f**ked up

[00:02:10] I can only imagine Uncle Bob

[00:02:17] Life's about decisions man

[00:02:20] It's in your hand and you got it

[00:02:23] Just take control if you can

[00:02:25] It's in your hand and you got it

[00:02:28] Sitting on the couch

[00:02:29] Thinking about the ratio

[00:02:30] Of blacks in prison as compact in prison

[00:02:33] When blacks pack with minorities

[00:02:35] System grab more of these 18 year olds

[00:02:38] 18 year sentence with no parole

[00:02:40] The state won't oversee

[00:02:42] They make the term severe a conspiracy

[00:02:45] That's what I call it

[00:02:46] It's full of shit

[00:02:47] A toilet can help quick

[00:02:48] The government help

[00:02:49] No just put us on death row

[00:02:51] Just give us some more guns

[00:02:52] Then give us some more coke

[00:02:54] Then give us another chair

[00:02:55] Then give us some more rope

[00:02:56] Then hang it like right there yeah

[00:02:59] It's justice for all but 90 percent unfair

[00:03:02] Care No

[00:03:03] Alcatraz was purchased by a white man

[00:03:05] For 5 grand with intentions to expand

[00:03:08] More prisons

[00:03:08] So these correctionals ain't for rehabilitation

[00:03:11] They for grossing a bigger business

[00:03:13] Imagine

[00:03:16] We're being used

[00:03:19] Imagine

[00:03:23] The truth shall be told

[00:03:25] Life's about decisions man

[00:03:28] It's in your hand and you got it

[00:03:31] Just take control if you can

[00:03:33] It's in your hand and you got it
