(In any country, prison is where society sends it's failures 
But in this country, society itself, is failing)

Tadow, how you like me now, I'm in the mix? 
It's 1986 and I got the fix with a chicken and a quota 
Got the baking soda, let the water boil, workers all loyal 
Dropped out the twelfth 
'Cause my wealth is shorter than a midget on his knees 
Now I slang keys 
Infest my hood with crack, 'cause I'm the mack 
Take a nation of millions to hold me back 
Too big for my britches, and I got bitches 
Now I'm hittin' switches, niggas want my riches 
Used to get eighteen when my G was alive, now a ki' is thirteen-five
'89s the number, another summer 
Police ain't get no dumber 
Streets dried up, used to think it would last 
But being a king pin is a thing of the past 
They tried to blast me for selling a boulder 
Now I got my ass in Minnesota 
Got my own crew, it's on brand new 

Damn, what can I do? 
Tadow
(Now it was on, from dusk to dawn and everything jumped)
What the f*ck can I do?
Tadow
(Now it was on, from dusk to dawn and everything jumped)

Already done stacked me half a meal ticket 
Bought a house next to Prince, so now I can kick it 
Now I got ends, wavin' to my friends, rollin' in my Benz 
Goin' to see the Twins, play at the Dome 
Police all tappin' my mobile phone 
I'm almost home 
Gettin' excited, indicted, spent a grip and a year tryin' to fight it 
Lawyer got paid, plea, no contest 
And everything I own got repossessed 
Now take a look at the dust 
And I'm happy 'cause I only got thirty six months 
Never picked up a book 
But my arms are 16 inches, niggas, look 
Can't wait for '92 so I can get with my crew 
And see, what can I do

Tadow
(Now it was on, from dusk to dawn and everything jumped)
And it's on like, yeah

Fucked up in the pen, now it's '94 
Back in LA and I'm bailin' in the dough 
Everybody know I gotta start from scratch 
So where the work at? And nigga's smirk at? 
Me say ain't nothin' poppin' from here to the LB 
What you tell me? 
No, it ain't crackin', everybody's jackin' for a coupe 
'Cause, they sent in the troops 
Even though I got muscle, that ain't my hustle 
Takin' niggas shit in a tussle 
No skills to pay the bills 
Takin' about education to battle inflation 
No college degree, just a dumb ass G 
(Yeah, you, nigga) 
Who me?
I got a baby on the way, damn, it's a mess 
Have you ever been convicted of a felony? Yes 
Took some advice from my Uncle Fester 
All dressed up in polyester 
Welcome to McDonald's, may I please help you? 
Shit, what can I do? 

Tadow
(Now it was on, from dusk to dawn and everything jumped)

The white man has broke every law known to man, to establish AmeriKKKa 
But he'll put you in the state penitentiary
He'll put you in the federal penitentiary 
For breaking these same laws
Now, we gon' look and see if this motherfucker is guilty 
For the laws he'll put you in jail for 
Drug using, drug selling, armed robbery, strong armed robbery, grand larceny
Rape, racketeering, conspiracy to commit murder, extortion
Aggravated assault, mayhem, sodomy of the black man, trespassing 
Embezzlement, perjury, kidnapping, smuggling, grand theft, brandishing a firearm
Carrying a concealed weapon, breaking and entering and premeditated, cold-blooded murder

Guilty on every charge

Ayo, what's up homie? Ah, why you just sittin' here lookin' up in the sky?
Waitin' on the Lord
Waitin' on the Lord?
That's right, waitin' on my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ
So you ain't gon' do nothing with your life but sit here and wait for Jesus to fall out the sky?
That's right
Alright then
