Lost In The Gang

Slavemaster's last name

Repeating the same thang

Lost in this here game

All for a name.

 

This game of life,

Brain filled with strife

Play it with two thumbs and a knife

In yo back.

Cuz bruh didn't cut you no slack

Just backstabbed you.

Now you wanna give him somebody to bow to

Like you a king or suhn.

But you got yo bling from frontin so

You ain't no real gangsta.

You making it easy for broke people like me and I thank ya.

Falling into the man's trap,

Constantly rappin bout traps.

They let '' on the radio, but you still can't say crack?

How y'all allowing them to still treat you like s?

You think my ancestors got whipped just so you can have figgas?

Not give back and pull triggas 

On those whose skin's as black as the stripes on tiggers?

 

Slavemaster's last name

Repeating the same thang

Lost in this here game

All for a name.

 

How this yo hood ?

You mean to tell me you own this land 

That yo mama break her back and bend 

Backwards just to stack up

So you can wear slacks and learn something good?

But this is yo hood right? 

The one appointed to you so you can take lives

If invaders come here?

The wrong color shoes, the wrong color gear

Is what determines I'm not from here?

This ain't yours and no I'm not from here.

You still don't own squat.

This land here is not

Your own.

Not a thang in yo name, not even yo home.

That's not yo last name either, that there was a loan.

Now get gone,

Cuz you really should've known.

This land you call yo home

Never have you belonged.

 

Slavemaster's last name

Repeating the same thang

Lost in this here game

All for a name.

 

This just another side effect

Of the medicine That 

the man put on the shelf

For ya. 

Put guns and drugs in "yo hood"

And you dare em not to step to ya.

But they don't even have to acknowledge you.

Let me give you some knowledge for food.

That man won't be bothering you,

Unless you going against his plans 

You are harmless to

Any corporation, organization, or politic who

Don't give a note if you croak

That's just another c-note 

In their pockets.

While yo family is rocked with

Paying the money you "worth"

Just to bury you back into the Earth.

 

Slavemaster's last name

Repeating the same thang

Lost in this here game

All for a name.

 

You out here tryna hang

For This name you tryna frame,

This status you tryna claim;

For the love or for the fame,

Whatever becomes your gain

Care nothing about you.

Your gain will become your downfall

Cuz you doing it all

For the chains,

The people screaming yo name down the hall,

Stop doing it all

For the gang.
