| Lyrics: | They're trying to build a prison,
They're trying to build a prison,
Following the
rights movements
You clamped down with your iron fists,
Drugs became
conveniently
Available for all the kids.
Following the rights movements
You clamped
down with your iron fists,
Drugs became conveniently
Available for all the
kids.
I buy my crack, I smack my bitch,
right here in Hollywood,
Nearly 2
million Americans are
Incarcerated in the prison system,
prison system of the
U.S.
(They're trying to build a prison)
They're trying to build a
prison,
They're trying to build a prison,
They're trying to build a prison,
(For you
and me to live in)
Another prison system,
Another prison system,
Another prison
system,
(For you and me)
Minor drug offenders fill your prisons
You don't even
flinch
All our taxes paying for your wars
Against the new non-rich,
Minor drug
offenders fill your prisons
You don't even flinch
All our taxes paying for your
wars
Against the new non-rich,
I buy my crack, I smack my bitch,
right here in
Hollywood,
The percentage of Americans in the prison system,
prison system has doubled
since 1985.
(They're trying to build a prison)
They're trying to build a
prison,
They're trying to build a prison,
They're trying to build a prison,
(For you
and me to live in)
Another prison system,
Another prison system,
Another prison
system,
(For you and me)
For you and I, For you and I, For you and I.
They're trying
to build a prison,
They're trying to build a prison,
They're trying to build a
prison,
For you and me,
Oh baby, you and me.
All research and sucessful drug policy
shows
That treatment should be increased,
And law inforcement decreased,
While
abolishing mandatory minimum sentences,
All research and successful drug policy shows
That
treatment should be increased,
And law inforcement decreased,
While abolishing mandatory
minimum sentences.
Utilizing drugs to pay for secret wars around the world.
Drugs
are now your global policy,
Now you police the globe,
I buy my crack, I smack my
bitch,
right here in Hollywood,
Drug money is used to rig elections,
And train brutal
corporate sponsered
dictators around the world.
(They're trying to build a
prison)
They're trying to build a prison,
They're trying to build a prison,
They're
trying to build a prison,
(For you and me to live in)
Another prison system,
Another
prison system,
Another prison system,
(For you and me)
For you and I, For you and I,
For you and I.
They're trying to build a prison,
They're trying to build a
prison,
They're trying to build a prison,
For you and me,
Oh baby, you and me. |
