[licking noise] "If you would suck my soul, I will lick your funky emotions." "Is this America?! YEAH! Is this freedom?! NO! Is this Democracy?! NO! Is equality?! NO! What do we want? FREEDOM!!" [Fresh Kid Ice] Taking this shit into the effect mode Expressing my feelings before I exploded About the suffering passed on to a black man By the money hungry seeking white man Fucking up our streets with pollution Then lock a nigga up for the solution ("Get in that cell, boy!") There they go now taking on the little man Fuck wit the cartel or the white man [samples from "Scarface"] Arrest musicains for the things they say But can't find a crime after it got sprayed This is America, In God We Trust We won justice but...a dick is in the dust... [Amazing V] I'm stereotyped, so I fit the description A nigga has the stigma for pushing or pimpin' Police harass me and public embarrass me They use brutality without asking me I'm mad cause I was caught and reached for his license Cops pulls the gun [*fires*] and cold-iced him And I'm a victim of society I got societal ills It's harder to pay bills than pop pills They send a brother off to fight for your country When ask for ours, we get nothing I look for work and get my feelings hurt They got my back against the wall And my dick is in the DIRT... [Luke "Skyywalker" Campbell - talking] Let's talk about this man they call Nino Brown The black man they call Nino Brown You know there's alot of Nino Browns in every city in the United States of America America had formed a Nino Brown in every city Basically because we have no way out! Ah, Is that what America really wants us to think That we have don't way out? Here's an example, you have never seen A black man come into Miami...with pounds and pounds of marijuana Pounds and pounds of cocaine You have never seen a black man drop off A kilo load of cocaine out of a plane You've never seen this Yet it is still in our community everyday And we're the ones going to jail for it [Fresh Kid Ice] The system is designed to lead us to stray So we turn to guns and drugs for our pay It's the sign of the times "I gotta get mine, all I live is a life of crime" [Amazing V] I come up hard from the ran down ghetto You talk your ass off, but tell me what a nigga know All I see is alot of neighborhood drama Babies crying, I wonder where's the mama? She O.D. and got rushed to trauma A dealer had to deal to make a fast buck She was just a patient...what the fuck?! His back's against the wall...and his dick's in the DUST...
