my times on trial
I'm out on bail but that don't mean nothing
I ain't got enough money to keep me out of jail so it's gonna be something.
I'm a rider, I ain't gone squeal
The DEA is a liar, I'm a file an appeal
Think I won't take the step
See the damn Judge winking at the ATF
They trying to send me to a place where I will be left.
Spend the rest of my dying days down to my last breathe.
Prosecutor got his fingers in his dumbass
He found out that my finger prints don't match
Get another DNA analyst
Somebody fucked up and I ain't gotta tell you how bad it is.
The gun was never found in my possession
Besides I don't need the headaches and oppression
My mother got high blood pressure and my girl suffer from depression
The last thing I need is for me love one to be stressing
Grasping and hugging on my bible for a blessing
I'm not a thug, a theif, or a bullshitter
I'll make the judge believe I'm a go-getter
My lawyer told me they just trying to get in my pocket like a gold digger
I'm a young man doing something constructive, so why you trying to send me awya to be a distructive old nigga
Your honor, I'm no buffoon
I graduate with a bachelors at the closing of June
Please don't judge me because my clothes isn't new
radio station W.I.I.F.M. I'm always in tune
I'm not a statistic that smoke herbs and drain beers
I show strength and retain tears
If things don't work in my favor I'll be gone for ten years
I gotta fight, so it's my word against theirs.
