Yea
|
For Zane, my future
|
|
[Hook:]
|
Man I feel like a runaway slave
|
Can't calm down
|
Never gon behave
|
My back to the wind
|
My spirit in the sky
|
I'm never giving in
|
Middle finger up high
|
And even when I die
|
Don't shed a tear when I'm laid
|
I feel like a runaway slave
|
I said I feel like a runaway slave
|
Sometimes I feel like a runaway slave
|
|
Listen...
|
|
[Verse 1:]
|
I could die before I get rich never touch a mill
|
Die before my album drops never sell a mill
|
Die before I get to see how success feels
|
Die before any of my dreams are fulfilled
|
Die before I really start livin out my plans
|
Die before I see my son grow into a man
|
Die before my niggas come home from they bids
|
Die before I truly learn how to really live
|
Now it feels like I know death
|
Gotta watch my own steps
|
|
Wonder my niggaz aint around cuz they all left
|
Pride in the ring contemplating on my own death
|
Shots fly niggaz tryin to kill my on my doorstep
|
How they gon remember me? What'll be my legacy?
|
How they gon talk about me when they pour that hennessy?
|
That nigga thug, that nigga was a rider
|
That nigga was one hell of a survivor
|
Niggaz in the pen with no money for bail
|
Every nigga on the run tryin to stay up outta jail
|
I could feel ya...
|
|
Yea I know, hold on and be strong my niggas
|
|
[Hook:]
|
Man I feel like a runaway slave
|
Can't calm down
|
Never gon behave
|
My back to the wind
|
My spirit in the sky
|
I'm never giving in
|
Middle finger up high
|
And even when I die
|
Don't shed a tear when I'm laid
|
I feel like a runaway slave
|
I said I feel like a runaway slave
|
Sometimes I feel like a runaway slave
|
|
[Verse 2:]
|
I could die before I bring happiness to my momma
|
Die before I make peace with my baby momma
|
Die before I squash all my bullshit drama
|
Die but don't cry this is death before dishonor
|
This is my last will and testament
|
Listen to my testament
|
Please raise Zane to be a leader and a gentleman
|
I don't have regrets all the times that I was negligent
|
Standing in the courtroom fronting like im innocent
|
Look at how I came up
|
Duckin undercover men
|
Friends getting railroaded hung by his government
|
This is what they made me
|
Hell is what they gave me
|
Homies coming home on parole but they ain't free
|
Look at me, look at life, how im supposed to change huh?
|
Im feelin like a runaway slave ma
|
Cant calm down I refuse to be tamed
|
Standing in these 4 walls banging on the cage
|
Niggaz on the jail bus handcuffed and chained
|
When its said and done they gon remember my name
|
Now mommy in the front row, sittin at my funeral
|
Everybody cryin', just another death as usual
|
You feel me?
|
|

Man I feel like a runaway slave

|
And even when I die
|
Don't shed a tear when I'm laid
|
I feel like a runaway slave
|

Sometimes I feel like a runaway slave
