"Black Soldier"
  by j-rock


they me trapped, talk'n behind my back.
tell me that im good 4 nothin, but only 2 sale crack.
now is how that?
u put dope in our community,
gave us guns, and now u sit back
and watch the downfall of our community.
police brutality, and 2 live off wick programs, w/ 5 mouth's 2 feed, and u wonder why we smoke weed?
2 forget the shit that u put us in,
we started as abolitionist, to the civil right movement, and 2 the black panthers raising there right fist.
so that wasn't working,
so now u got wild nigga's like me,
who is young black and hungry, and survive by any means.
yall, fuck around and let me get a college degree.
so, now i go and give back 2 the community,
3 years from now it going be 200 more kids out of the ghetto, just ike me.
can u handle it, i see u in a panic,
i told my people how you use GERRY-MANDERING.
BUT, THAT IS WHAT U GET,
WHEN U GET AN EDUCATED NIGGA FROM THE STREETS.
