  • [Z-Ro:] Who else but me can see the state of emergency that we face? ’
    Cause wearin’ of certain clothin’ can get a brother a case
    Talkin’ pants,
    Air Force
    Ones & a baseball cap
    It’s casual, but to authorities it mean you sellin’ crack
    It’s A Shame
    I can’t ride on the rich side of town
    Without bein’ pulled over, thrown on the hood & patted down
    Searchin’ my person for weapons & drug paraphernalia
    It’s rough on a thug that’s what
    I’m tellin’ ya
    When I say thug,
    I don’t mean
    I’m supposed to be locked behind bars ’
    Cause my acronym for thug is
    True Hero
    Under God
    But still
    I’m a criminal ’cause
    I got gold teeth
    Ain’t no justice for blacks, just us with no sleep
    And they wonder why
    I keep a Glock 40 on my hip ’
    Cause Houston police department love to empty full clips.
    Accidental death?
    ********!
    They murdered all my eses
    Chinga tu madre de policina {?} puente
    If they get out of line,
    I get out of line
    I’ll be damn if
    I don’t fight for my freedom & don’t mind dyin’
    Already got one foot in the grave, ain’t **** for me to jump in
    Almost overdosin’ on codeine, heart barely pumpin’
    I’m high all the time, straight addicted
    Paranoid, my dog might be a detective, so
    I don’t wanna kick it
    Even though
    I don’t rob banks or sell street rocks
    I still be callin’ collect to
    Trae to say, come bail me out
    This crooked ass
    America, I swear they got some game
    Every city
    I travel to, the situation the same
    I can’t even say it’s racial ’cause
    I got some white friends
    Then again, they get patted ’cause
    I’m not a white friend
    It’s A Shame. [Chorus: Z-Ro]
    Bad enough they wanna follow me around the store
    Like I’m a steal somethin’ thinkin’
    I ain’t got no dough
    And if I die tonight, they’ll think
    I did a crime for it
    Offer me 25, insistin’ that
    I sign for it
    Why I can't drive a fancy ride & rock diamonds & gold
    Why every time
    I shine you wanna crucify my soul
    Under investigation ’cause the ghetto on parole
    Something’s wrong, if
    I’m not flowin’
    It’s A Shame. [Z-Ro:] 27 years of struggle is all
    I saw I done lost homies to homies & homies to the law
    Everywhere
    I lay my head, there been homicides
    I done seen so many murders since the day my mama died.
    I ain’t lyin’.
    Will I remit?
    Will I survive?
    Can I breathe? ’
    Cause I don’t see too many
    Christians just murderers & thieves
    And I never seen a man cry, until
    I seen a man die
    But he was tryin’ to do me so
    I had to make that man fly.
    Will the authorities understand self-defense?
    All they give a damn about is who did it & evidence
    Screamin’ guilty to take another thug off the street
    Prejudiced prosecutors can’t keep no blood off the street
    I’m one deep, if
    I gotta use my burner,
    I’m safe I ain’t gotta go "Rollin’ on the River" like
    Tina Turner ’
    Cause this crooked ass
    America, I swear they got some game
    Innocent until never found guilty, but still in chains
    It’s A Shame. [Chorus: Z-Ro]
    Bad enough they wanna follow me around the store
    Like I’m a steal somethin’ thinkin’
    I ain’t got no dough
    And if I die tonight, they’ll think
    I did a crime for it
    Offer me 25, insistin’ that
    I sign for it
    Why I can't drive a fancy ride & rock diamonds & gold
    Why every time
    I shine you wanna crucify my soul
    Under investigation ’cause the ghetto on parole
    Something’s wrong, if
    I’m not flowin’
    It’s A Shame.
