[00:09.97] Damn, lost in that cage they gave you
[00:13.27] Causing all that misbehavior
[00:14.78] Must've thought he was bigger than his 40 acres
[00:17.68] Ain't nobody big as that bitch, blasphemy
[00:21.08] Got a three day eviction paper
[00:23.48] Waking up them nosy neighbors
[00:25.99] He must've thought, he was bigger than his 40 acres
[00:28.60] But ain't nobody big as that bitch, blasphemy
[00:31.58] You ain't got no cash, don't ask for me
[00:34.22] Jack I don't wear shackles on me
[00:36.20] Heard these people have been shouting for freedom
[00:39.02] See, we can be free but still picked on
[00:41.69] Got an Uzi and it weighs a ton
[00:44.40] One bullet still aimed at the sun
[00:47.17] Who gives a fuck if he raises his gun
[00:49.37] It's all "Run Forrest, run Forrest"
[00:51.80]
[00:52.40] Yeah, because there ain't no sunshine
[00:56.65] Don't even get up, you ain't gon' step
[00:59.42] I'm goin'
[01:01.38]
[01:02.66] Exodus, exit us
[01:05.80] The mess was an excess of
[01:07.86] Much, for what's a tough get going when the going get tough
[01:11.68] And the rush for the ruts get, rushed
[01:13.84] They picked the weakest of the pack so we packing
[01:16.22] More than a weekend 'fore we get back
[01:18.47] The clock is only one way tickin'
[01:20.61] Y'all tripping 'less y'all dipping on a one-way ticket
[01:23.51] You can't take it back
[01:25.31] The road to atonement made like a Rolling Stone painted black
[01:28.50] They paint it black too on the face though
[01:31.29] Journey of a million miles powered by the power of Grayskull
[01:34.48] What are you waiting for?
[01:35.76] Line up for the high speed chase by a race
[01:38.50] For a race of the grateful
[01:39.63] Stay and you get what you pay for
[01:41.53] You get what you prayed for, eight-fold
[01:43.83] I'm out
[01:45.56]
[01:45.92] "Celebrate my escape"
[01:47.04] "You better watch out"
[01:48.04] "Celebrate my escape"
[01:49.50] "Don't try to walk, walk"
[01:50.75] You better" "Run, run"
[01:52.19] "You better" "Watch out"
[01:55.93] "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls
[01:58.43] Oppressed and the oppressors
[01:59.92] We will be down no more
[02:01.91] I bring you, the greatest game"
[02:04.94]
[02:05.46] Wait, can you take a vacation from struggling everyday through the hurt and humiliation
[02:10.29] Of muddling through the mass of these everyday irritations
[02:12.72] And get shit and getting spit on, hate on your occupation?
[02:15.52] The system's super shady and shackles your aspirations
[02:18.16] Cultivating critical cracks and destiny's destinations
[02:20.53] You're tired of being touched by these trivial tribulations
[02:23.17] You just want the humbug unplugged, so why you waitin'?
[02:25.91] You could call into reality, reserve a reservation
[02:28.50] Catch a cab into the cosmos' coast, evacuated
[02:31.11] Break the mirrors, toke the smoke, don't choke, inhalation
[02:33.78] Just when hope was getting low, don't cope, ventilate it
[02:36.55] Take your troubles and then let them blow outdo'
[02:38.43] And maybe lace it, place it in faces
[02:39.86] With critical cases who tastin' and spacin'
[02:41.90] The fragrance they eagerly faded, wasted then elevated
[02:44.25] New dreams in their blue bloodstream, marinated
[02:47.07] Cause reality is too obscene, you have to hate it
[02:49.69] So we looking for a brand new thing, we validate it
[02:52.22] Where the love can only reign supreme
[02:53.87] We hope you make it rocking bells until the freedom rings
[02:56.06] We liberated at last
[02:58.80]
[02:59.27] Yeah, because there ain't no sunshine
[03:01.86] Don't even get up, you ain't gon' step
[03:04.84] I'm goin'
