Ice Cube - Penitentiary lyrics

Your rating:
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 purty gates
 Until then, the pen is unfair
 Slave ships in the middle of nowhere (ma)
 I lets my goddamn hair grow (ma)
 Bellin' in court, lookin' like a scarecrow
 On Capital Hill, they them 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 at our house
 Takin' lyrics in my mouth
 Bitches in the south showin' ass (mm)
 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

 [Chorus]
 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

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

 [Verse 2]
 When the evil outweighs the good
 And you only give a fuck about rucks
 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 shows flex (Booom!)
 Porbey Rolex (Booom!)
 Which hoe is next? (Booom!)
 Would you like a piece of me? Not a mate
 Calling you a hoe 'cos I'm fucking on the first day (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 carafel cups (punk)
 Fool you on master's woe
 But won't even think about, sucking Bob Doe (punk)
 Asshole from the Senate
 How can you relate to a project tennant?
 Motherfuck you and not the courtman, no corrections
 Tryina' get a section of this west-side connection

 (Chorus) (x2)
 (Bridge)

 Just because you gotta stay
 You ain't gotta rot away
 We gon' come and get you one day
 (repeat until fade
