Here is a land that never gave a damn
About a man like me and myself because they never did
I wasn't with it but just that very minute it occurred to me
The evil power had authority
Cold sweating as I dwell in my cell, how long has it been?
They got me sitting in the Federal cell
I gotta get out, but that thought was thought before
I contemplated a plan on the cell floor
I'm not a fugitive on the run
But a man like me begun to be another one
What did the DA call me a few hundred times a mastermond a public enemy serving time
They drew the line y'all, to criticize me some crime
Nevertheless, they could not understand that I'm a Bold man
And I could never be a slave
On the strength, the situation's unreal
I got a raw deal, so I'm looking for the steel
They got me rotting in the time that I'm serving
Telling you what happened the same time they're throwing
Four of us packed in a cell like slaves, oh well
The same motherfucker got us living in his hell
You have to realize, what its a form of slavery
Organized under a swarm of devils
Straight up - word 'em up on the level
The reasons are several, most of them federal
Here is my plan anyway and I say
I got gusto, but only some I can trust, yo
Some do a bid of 12 years a slave
But I never did, and plus I never been
I'm on a tier where no tears should ever fall
Cell block and locked, I never clock it y'all
Cause time and time again
Time, they got me serving to those and to them, I'm not a citizen
a slave now bound chained and non existining to all i love
On the strength, I'ma tell you the deal
I got nothing to lose
Cause I'm going for the steel
