Capital-X - Redemption lyrics
[Intro] Talking: Redemption, to extricate, to be released from debt, to make good. Redemption. Redemption. Redemption. Fuck you Schwarzenegger punk mutha fucka. Redemption [Capital-X] I've waited decades for my turn, now without concern I'm a spit this fire, sit back and watch the world burn Man this is for every cop, that's ever called me a spic As I was pistol whipped, and beat with night sticks And this is for every public pretender, that conned me into taking a deal Made me think I was hitting the streets, but wound up behind bricks and steel And this is for every judge, that sent me up state Where I grew bitter and cold, filled with anger and hate Man I've been misunderstood, from the second I came out the pussy No I ain't no killa, but don't fucken push me I've been plotting this, since my days in solitary confinement Where I prayed to God, to show me the light through the darkness Well to your dismay, my prayers have been answered And since that day, my words have been spreading like cancer No you can't stop it, cause truth always prevails Man every letter of this verse, is like a bomb being mailed To everyone that's wrote me off, and said I was worthless A born loser, that served no purpose And to every C.O. that told me to lift up my nut-sack Spread open my ass-crack, and said I'd be back Man fuck that, I'm over turning every sentence Coming with a vengeance, and claiming my redemption [Break] [Talking, Redemption 4x's] [Capital-X] Man I was born guilty, in the eyes of my oppressors Kept under surveillance, and under constant pressure Man they've been feeding me lies, ever since I was an adolescent Well now watch me flip the script and teach these fucks a lesson Sure I've lied to survive, but I've never lied to myself I know I'm going to heaven, cause I already been through hell Lock down in a cell, a corporate slave But now I'm rising, like Christ from the grave And I ain't talking on some Bad Boy shit, or Roca-Fella I'm talking Filiberto Rios, and Nelson Mandela Malcolm-X, Karl Marx and Medgar Evers I'm wielding my machete, till the dragons 7 heads are severed I ain't just talking about, we need a change, Man I'm breaking the shackles, handcuffs and chains They tried to break me, but they just made me stronger They thought they silenced me, but they couldn't have been wronger I'm bringing the noise like Public Enemy, speaking the truth like Technique Seeking vengeance for my people like an Arawak Chief Talk is cheap, so I'm backing my words with action Draw first blood, and we'll see what happens Don't forget the golden rule, what goes around comes around And keep in mind, that you can't keep a real nigga down [Break] [Talking, Redemption 4x's] [Capital-X] Like Q-Unique, vengeance will be mine That's why I be coming at ya's like the judge, just gave me an asshole full of time I got homicide on my mind, revenge pumping through my veins For every inmate locked in the hole, literally going insane Man I feel their pains, tears falling like acid rain I know most of ya'll don't give a fuck, except for capital gain So I spit with a ferociousness, that will rattle your brains Make you see today's prisoners, are just like yesterdays slaves Captured enchained, locked in a cage Forced to work like third world children, that are under age Housed in conditions, the ASPCA would find inhumane surrounded by TB, HIV and AIDS 365 days, could turn into a death sentence But they keep on warehousing, inmates by the millions I served13 years, and it made me worse not better Cause their plan from day one, was to make me a repeat offender But like Filiberto Ríos, I refused to surrender Man they ain't never seen me, as anything more than a commodity But now they're looking at me, like I'm their worst fuckin enemy Armed with verses of truth, that reek of revolution I got these fucks trying to raise, Willie Lynch from the grave To try to regain control, of this runaway slave [Break] [Talking, Redemption 8x's]Capital-X - Redemption - http://motolyrics.com/capital-x/redemption-lyrics.html
