Ice T - Escape From The Killing Fields Lyrics
Here we goIm movin off death rowYa gotta keep up hopsYa cant be slowCuse their towers are highThey got the hype gaatsCheck the perimeters goodRead the mapsIts nightThey might not see usCuse if they catch us out thereTheyll bleed usShoot us, kill usDump us in a dark ditchClean it up, call it a gang hitI gotta make my moveCause Im a renegadeI recognizeWhen mind techniquesAre being playedIts a plot they useTo keep down anotherHere comes anotherBrainwashed brotherShut up do you knowHow dumb you sound?That mentalityWhat keeps my people downNo one wants toLive in an urban warYou live there causeYour parents were poorThey live there becauseTheirs were alsoGet yourself togetherHit the gates bro!ChorusYa gotta get out!Ya gotta get out! why?Ya gotta get out!Ya gotta get out! why?Ya gotta get out!Ya gotta get out! why?Cause the fieldsAre where you die!Escape fromThe killing fieldsYou try to keep usRunning and running fasterBut I aint runnin from yaIm runnin at yaAnd my posses thickAbout a mil strongToo late to make up nowCause its onIm the one thats got yaIn constant fearIm the niggaYou shoulda killed last yeaarBut you played yourselfYou let me gain wealthNow I can change the wyThe cards are dealtIve schooled my homeboysMade em all understandThe tricks nd twistsInflicted on the black manHow ya make me thinkTo be downI gotta stay aroundDown in the mother*****inBattlegroundTherell never be any goodSchools in the hoodTherell never be any copsThat are any goodThe hospital is a great placeTo go to dieReal estates cheapLet me tell ya why?The mans got aSure fire systemA economic prison!ChorusEscape fromThe killing fields!
