Kool G Rap - Rikers Island Lyrics
Well listen to me, you young hoods, this is some adviceYou do the crime, you're payin the priceCause if you're in the drug spots, sellin crack on the blockSnatchin chains, bustin brains, like a real hardrockIf you ever hear a cop say you're under arrestGo out just like a trooper, stick out your chestCause you might have been robbin, you might have been whylinBut you won't be smilin on Riker's ISLANDJust to hear the name it makes your spine tingleThis is a jungle where the murderers mingleThis ain't a place that's crowded but there's room for youWhether you're white or you're black, you'll be black and blueCause in every cellblock, there is a hardrockwith a real nice device that's called a sock lockDon't ever get caught in a crime my friendCause this bus trip is not to Adventure's InnThey have a nice warm welcome, for new inmatesRazors, and shanks, and sharp edged platesPosses will devour, punks with powerAfter the shower it's, rush hourSo watch your back before you get sackedThese a bunch of maniacs that's about to attackIf you're a hustlin pro, keep a low profile'nCause you won't be smilin on Riker's ISLANDC-74, adolescents at warPut your ear to the floor, you can hear the roarThey take you out of BC, they now found you a cageAll eyes are glued to you like you're up on stageIf you're soft as a leaf, don't get into a beefAnd God be with you chief if you got gold teethSome try to be hard, front and say I'm GodDon't know a lesson say a blessin, you're gonna get scared(Yo call the C.O.) That won't be necessaryHe'll watch him beat you down, and take your commissary-
