[Stephen:]
|
What am I doing behind these iron bars
|
Never robbed nor killed, never done no one harm
|
You put me in shackles, you place I in chains
|
Said I'll never see the outside again
|
Oh!
|
Yeah, Yeah
|
|
[Julian:]
|
I'm a prisoner locked up for what
|
Freedom of Speech ain't that all we've got
|
Wounded pride my head held up high
|
Rebels for life, we rebel for the right
|
|
[Stephen:]
|
Let me out, let me out
|
I'm an angry lion
|
Let me out, let me out
|
I'm an angry lion
|
Let me out, let me out
|
I'm an angry lion
|
Let me out, let me out
|
Oh you crazy mother

Heyo, listen, took my freedom, my honor, my pride
|
To provide for my family I tried
|
Gots to prepare, cuz listen
|
We's here for the ride
|
Vision's blocked cause we locked inside
|
Iron bars
|
Took my freedom, my honor, my pride
|
To provide for my family I tried
|

[Mr Cheeks:]
|
Yo I was caught in the mix with nowhere to go
|
Rent need to be paid things moving slow
|
I just want to get a deal and spit this flow
|
See ain't that the dream to live well and get dough
|
You looking for a change man there ain't no changing
|
This money, this gun, this drug exchanging
|
And if you got seeds that makes you go even harder
|
If it ain't for them man then why even bother
|
|
[Stephen:]
|
You must think say man a sprat
|
Ain't no back and belly rat

You must think say man a sprat
|

|
Well man a lion, yeah
|
Man a lion
|
