Trapped on Earth

They believed that they were free but
In reality they were trapped
By their own selfish and greedy
Desires american society american
Society was not going forward it
Was taking people backwards they
Were becoming isolated beings driven
By primitive animal forces

Trapped on Earth, yeah
That's our predicament
I asked what it's worth

Yo I'm dangerous, man your battle station
It's cold war
Stand behind bricks like coke lords
Stories passed down from
The ghettoist folklore
And if you ain't on top yet then smoke more
Presidential glitch
Who the fuck did we vote for?
The man with the hundred brick
Stash in the boat floor
Bush made a war in Iraq now shit's crazy
Known to put a shell in
Your face like Dick Cheney
The ghetto Dick Tracey
I done seen me a lot of shit
Trapped on Earth under reign of a communist
Waiting for the Planet X
To bring the apocalypse sick of these whack
Rappers getting monotonous
Move through your city like the
Damage of tidal wave
Gave the hammer to the man and
Told him to pound away
We can build empires, move with the cavalry
Get knocked the fuck out
See more stars than Outerspace

Trapped on Earth, yeah

I done seen a lot of shit
Since the days of my birth
From living on this planet
We call it trapped on Earth
Backbone verse is what I give
You destined to distribute
Tribute to hip hop
The real shit always continues
Son I keep it real without a record deal
We can build
Parlay on the track take a trip to Dr iLL's
Reminisce about back in the
Day we wasn't stressing
We ran the streets, choking off trees
The cipher blessing see my life is a lesson
Each day's another pop quiz watch this
They found my cousin dead inside his whip
Why the good die young? Why
They murder Big L? Why I walk the streets
No peace and know living Hell?
Put my uncles in jail
Wrong decisions got him sitting in detention
This life we living got us screaming out
"Fuck the system"
Peace to Snowgoons, peace to the fam
Bloodline, ain't no stopping me now
I'm coming out, it's my time

Uh, we're coming to the end of our days
And the way shit's going we
Ain't far from our graves
Yo this really ain't adding up
Sometimes I just want to bag it up
Life is ill son, I've had enough
Kids killing kids, people kill their families
People starving in the streets
That's the reality say you got that family
That's all about vanity
Crazy kids in college don't want
'em to work hourly
For that same salary we should act cowardly
Send another child to war
Then leave casualties
The rich get rich, the poor keep on missing
'Cause they cut education to
Further the prison system
See we trapped on earth
I've been trapped since birth
All you fake motherfuckers take
Your mask off first
So I can look you in the eyes
Before I take you to church
Put you right back in the earth
Casket and dirt

Trapped on Earth, yeah

Not shit if your position is the path to burn
