But time flyin', playin' these corners'll let it slide by
Pieces of a black man, my thoughts travel
I played all positions, plus learned from each mission
Trapped on savage land it's like taboo
I know the ledge, meditatin', holdin' my head
Stuck in time, so many young boys bustin' nines
Solitude certifies all moves
Yo when times get trifle, I'm subjected to street survival
The Crack wave 2 for 5, deuce and tres
Trapped on savage land it's like taboo
Trapped on savage land it's like taboo
Police know me, but ain't got enough to hold me
Trapped on savage land it's like taboo
Some servin' state bids, 'cause they hustle blind
Stuck in time, so many young boys bustin' nines
Some servin' state bids, 'cause they hustle blind
So play the game, other slow up change the lane
It's a part of scriptures, put together wit different mixtures
Amongst the frozen hearted, some now bentin', some departed
Pieces of a black man, my thoughts travel
She prayed for peace, hopin' I'm saved before she lay diciest
See many never complete they cycle, other retreat to Bibles
Unknowin' first time felons on trial blowin'
Pieces of a black man, my thoughts travel
Absorbin' fast, learnin' from niggas I lost in the past
My mind mold me, keep me in mack mode like Goldie
Some servin' state bids, 'cause they hustle blind
It's all the worst genocide, I guess the water's cursed
It's poison plays in these foul days
So burn your clips and sit back, learn your shit
Movin' coldly, in the presence of old paroles
Trapped on savage land it's like taboo
Pieces of a black man, my thoughts travel
Puffin' lye, homicide, coke supplies dry
All around real, rough is the grounds in Brownsville
Estimatin', or play a part of them investigatin'
A form of teachin', from the streets never taught in school
Politic, wit all type niggas wit different diction
Some servin' state bids, 'cause they hustle blind
And though I sold some Coke, it was only to stay afloat
Stuck in time, so many young boys bustin' nines
The Mack sprays, puffin' lye, truth and days
Pieces of a black man, my thoughts travel
My old earth identify, though her soul is for the church
Sleet, snow, or rain, I guess the game'll never change
Stuck in time, so many young boys bustin' nines
They tricked us, got us trapped in takin' pictures
Awaken, unchain the brain in exchange to take away the pain
Trapped on savage land it's like taboo
Stuck in time, so many young boys bustin' nines
Buggin' off my first Philly Blunt, and how I lit it up
Housin' cops and they foul ways, and walkin' through a wild maze
Pieces of a black man, my thoughts travel
Eyes red, it's Doe or Die till I'm dead
Some servin' state bids, 'cause they hustle blind
Inhalin' chocolate, tracin' back to where it started
Interogatin', locatin', destination'
Some servin' state bids, 'cause they hustle blind
Poor images, project life drained my innocence
Livin' holy, but currency seem to control me
I did it up, from young in some cunt, the way I hit it up
I follow rules, through the knowledge, swallow jewels
Some servin' state bids, 'cause they hustle blind
Trapped on savage land it's like taboo
Some servin' state bids, 'cause they hustle blind
And though it sound ill, through all the foul shit, I'm down still
To say the least, the warden's to wise to play the streets
I know the ropes, certain niggas to slow to cope
Holdin' my brain, tryin' to maintain
Stuck in time, so many young boys bustin' nines
You caught you lose, a wise man utilize tools
Stuck in time, so many young boys bustin' nines
The last of these real reps left turned legit
Since the genesis, paraphernalia circle my premises
Stuck in time, so many young boys bustin' nines
Pieces of a black man, my thoughts travel
It's on goin', from them killers, to them broads hoin'
So I walk this path of the old dread, that lead me off the Ave
