Dear Mama
If some people came by the house lookin' for me
I'm innocent of anything they say I done
Now I don't know when I'll be able to write you again
But I will be back to California to see you
Your son Ice m************ Cube.
Keep my hand on my gun 'cause they got me on the run
I swear I didn't do what they say I done
I swear I didn't do what they say I done
Ghetto destroyer paranoia, I need a lawyer
This b**** named Netoia, say they lookin' for ya
Got to get the f*** out of here (yeah right)
This b**** dimmed the lights (n****, spend the night)
Bust a quick nut, got to f*** up and gat on
'cause this the same street I got shot on
So God bless Don Polla, double-s
I gotta holla 'cause I'm smokin' on double breath
Freakin', n***** be leakin', information
Got the feds seekin', incarceration
n***** say my name popped up
b**** hop up
n**** close the shop up
They try to stop em
My cash flow leave me a****** neck it
Gone in sixty seconds, burn all records
n**** gettin' skinny eating dinnies
Count my pennies, only got a bag fulla twenties
[Chorus]
Listen, these feds fishin' for this extradition
I'm on a mission, f*** em, fight em, dine em, ditch em
I gotta kick rocks, can't pick locks
Or spend the rest of my life in a s***-?bath
It's so hard to get a room without a credit card
It's so hard not to let em know where you are
Tried to get a rent a car
But he laughed when I showed him cash
Had to mash 'fore he called the feds on my a**
Went to Vegas for the weekend
Met a hoe down freakin'
Hey b****, why you sneakin'?
Grabbed the paper out her hand
Am I the man on the front page? (f***)
Same height, same age (click-click)
Rap gauge, put it down the G-way
Got my hostage suckin' sausage on the freeway
She say "Let's hear the circle K"
Ran inside and made the n***** all pay
It's like I hit the Lotto outside Colorado
Brought it there for his wallet and my bottle
That's my motto and I gotta warn ya
Before I'm through, I'm going back to California
Keep my hand on my gun 'cause they got me on the run
I swear I didn't do what they say I done
I swear I didn't do what they say I done
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
My boys you're taught at Illonois
Set the poise, so I can infiltrate
All fifty states
Can't wait till I'm back on my feet
Switch and shake this b**** in her sleep
Low key you feds can't see me
I'm up in D.C. with strike number three
Clownin', made a little stock to get a little c***
Now I got n***** bangin' and lootin' rock
I'm going back to Cali where it's bound with my strikes
Don't give a f*** who's on the ?marin or the mic
I should've known when I seen that m*********** in the lobby
Looking like he want to rob me (f***)
Federal, don't like no black hetero, s**ual, intellectual
Tried to turn me into a vegetable
An I'm 'a sue all black and blue
When I come to- hand cuff (f*** y'all)
Big grey bus, scandalous
'cause they can't stand us
They get excited and I try to fight it (mama)
I'm going back to Cali to show, extradited
Keep my hand on my gun 'cause they got me on the run
I swear I didn't do what they say I done
I swear I didn't do what they say I done
[Chorus]
Hey mama, when y'all send pictures you can't send a Polaroid
Got to be the regular pictures
An' they got us in here puttin' in computer chips or something
I don't know.
Like they playin with us, it's like a game
It ain't nothin' but a game to them mama
It's my life
If some people came by the house lookin' for me
I'm innocent of anything they say I done
Now I don't know when I'll be able to write you again
But I will be back to California to see you
