187, gang related, I'm accused
|
And after every court date my face is on the news
|
They say I wrote a song about a murder
|
I maintain my innocence, it's nothing but a coincidence
|
I'll admit it looks kind of shadey
|
from the outside looking in
|
The situation is serious but people don't comprehend
|
I was 17 years young back in '92
|
Facing 25 to life for something I didn't do
|
My song is supposed to be a big admission on my part
|
And they're using the lyrics against me when my trial gets ready to start
|
My songs are being misinterpritated
|
It ain't nothing but the D.A. trying to prove premeditated
|
They've got X-Raided stuck, majorly crossed up
|
The D.A. got a fucked up witness and my lawyer is a dump truck
|
I've been sitting in the county, three years have already went by
|
They're pressuring my Locs, trying to get them to testify
|
Snitching ain't no joke, it's hazardous to your health
|
When you point one finger at me, you're pointing three back at yourself
|
My homies got convicted for murder in the first degree
|
Ain't no doubt about it, they'll try to do worse to me
|
They take me in the court room in front of an all white jury
|
With the family looking me with barely concealed fury
|
My lawyer standing next to me, prepared to represent
|
And help me get convicted cause to him
|
I'm guilty till proven innocent...
|
|
Why they trying to give me deuce-5 to life?
|
They trying to give me 25 to life cause I'm guilty till proven innocent...
|
|
I open up the front page of the Sacramento Bee
|
And read the article that Dan McGrath wrote about me
|
He has his own opinion and it's his job to write it
|
I say he's being biased and completly one sided
|
The media write their stories for the public to consume
|
And any chance I have of getting a fair trial in Sac is doomed
|
Any potential jurors mind is being contaminated
|
From reading all the bull they wrote about X-Raided
|
I never told anybody to go out kill somebody's folks
|
And blaming it all on me and
|
a song I wrote is a complete joke
|
They're looking for a move but they're looking in the dark
|
Putting a noose around my neck and a bullet in my heart
|
Just because I'm capable of killing doesn't mean I kill
|
And just because I'm capable of killing doesn't mean I will
|
I wish they all knew, how can I make you feel me?
|
X-Raided didn't do it but I've gotta ride cause I'm guilty till proven innocent...
|
|
Why they trying to give me deuce-5 to life?
|
They trying to give me 25 to life cause I'm guilty till proven innocent...
|
|
I'm knowing I'm going to end up in the pen
|
Fighting my appeal and hoping that I win
|
It's me and Baby Bread fighting this fucked up case
|
Like Dooney and B-Dub trying to get these years erased
|
In Sac there ain't no love when you're from the Garden Blocc
|
Maniac, C-Mooney, Baby Snake and Lil' Venom already got washed
|
I'm trying to keep my head up but my load is getting heavy
|
It makes me want to do like Sicx: take some Tylenol and get it over with
|
But instead I just maintain and do everything to keep my composure
|
Representing the Blocc to the fullest and riding like a soldier
|
I told you fools the X-Loc ain't going out like the average
|
I didn't kill your folks but if you run up then I gotta loc up like a savage
|
On that ass, bitch, it ain't nothing personal thang, it's just about survival
|
And I'm going to be 125 years old before I die
|
if I can help it
|
You made your threats and I felt it but I ain't dead yet
|
So you niggas talking about
|
what you're going to do when you see me
|
I'll be on the weights, wearing state boots and a beanie
|
I wish I didn't have to be this way but it's reality
|
So I'm strapped based on the fact
|
I'm guilty till proven innocent...
|
|
Why they trying to give me deuce-5 to life?
|
They trying to give me 25 to life
|
cause I'm guilty till proven innocent...
