Penitentiary — текст песни (Ice Cube)

Attention all nigga rows and nigga hoes
We`ve decided to rob this motherfucker the legal way
Nobs injecting ourselves to become property on the stock
In the penal system. In the justice system

Penitentiary, I hear you calling me (x4)

[Verse 1]
As the world turns, it burns while it`s spinning
Coming to a fucked-up ending
I can`t wait till the day everything in the hood is straight
And I can hit the perly gates
Until then, the pen is unfair
Slave ships in the middle of nowhere (mama)
I lets my goddamn hair grow (mama)
Bellin` in court, lookin` like a scarecrow
On Capital Hill, they done passed a bill
Coming at me with a fucked-up deal (nah)
The judge gave me a `L`
But y`all can`t tell
I wait and cry in my cell
Convicted negro, superhero
Speaker of the house
Hate the lyrics in my mouth
Bitches in the south showin` ass (mmm)
Mix a lot, got hoes puttin titties on the glass
We blast in the west for example
And rap about this shit over funkadelic samples
Yo` babies see me kill a fool on TV (Wilson!)
And straight call me a G


[Hook 1]
Penitentiary, I hear you calling me
Penitentiary, I hear you calling me
Thinkin` of illegal ways to get paid
But it ain`t shit, got to be legit


[Hook 2]
In South-central L.A.
You can buy your game from the C.I.A., hey-hey
In South-central L.A.
You can buy your game from the C.I.A. baby

[Hook 1]

[Verse 2]
When the evil outweighs the good
And you only give a fuck about the bucks
The Earth will self-destruct (bitch!)
Fuck the ozone layer, bitch I`m a playa (bitch!)
Plus we got a black mayor
I get sex when I show flex (Booom!)
Port Bay Rolex (Booom!)
Which ho is next? (Booom!)
Treat you like a piece of meat, not a mate
Calling you a ho `cos I`m fucking on the first date (uh)
My world is a one-mile radius
I swear every other hood is the shadiest (uh)
Could the Crips and Bloods be all rotten
When the trilateral commission is plottin`?
What you gonna do when the Earth erupts?
Some niggaz gettin` nuts outa styrofoam cups (punk)
Fool you on monster swow
But won`t even think about, socking Bob Doe (punk)
Asshole from the Senate
How can you relate to a project tennant?
Motherfuck you and the Department of Corrections
Tryina` get a section of this west-side connection

[Hook 1] x2
[Hook 2]

Just because you gotta stay
You ain`t gotta rot away
We gon` come and get you one day
(repeat until fade)
