caught up in the game - bushwackass lyrics
[intro]
yo, society just can’t understand
a black man living in the ghetto with no plans
this is universal thoughts for all beings seeing what i’m seeing
so you can realize….and recognize
this how it goes down
[gravedigga]
it started all off at 13 breaking all the rules
cutting school to burn it up at my brother’s school
not a bonafide money taker yet
but learning fast about all the things that dirt gets
roaming the streets with my peeps in the evening
creepin, ice pick up my pacific trail sleeve and
sometimes just beating people for the h*ll of it
i was so young that getting locked was irrelevant
getting older fast, taking cash on the street
breaking in mailboxes on the first and fifteenth
and yo my favorite was the orange box cutter
just opening it up would scare the sh*t up out a sucker
totin’ shanks and sh*t, talking about murder
at the age of 15, i got my very first burner, now
it’s time to get it on with society
quick to clip on any punk n*gga that be eyein’ me
(chorus)
l’ickle bad boy youth, who went against the grain
trying to make a little name, got caught up in the game
i didn’t realize i was part of the statistics
why didn’t someone kick the ballistics
[fish b.one]
when i turned sixteen kid, i thought i knew it all
i followed no man yo, i made my own laws
so i started moving with a clique of sick juveniles
we’re caught up in the system with rap sheets for miles
i got drug possessions and burglaries
i got a1 felonies with a string of armed robberies
it doesn’t matter, we’re too young to do a bid
doing adult crimes, being charged as a kid
i slide in new directions, i got cash on my mind
seventeen now, i need cream and that’s the bottomline
it ain’t hard to find just link up with one of my mans
someone who’s real, somebody i consider fam
so my man shank, he make mad bank
he drive from south cl!ck to new york with fake gas tanks
with dope and marijuana
he’s mad paid and still lives in gow*n*s
amongst the sharks and the pirahanas
so i got with em now my pockets looking right
until we got stopped one night jumping on the turnpike
flashing lights is behind us, he said that we’ll be fine
now here they come with a team of drug sniffing canines
i guess i’ll never see the condo with two*car garages
i dropped my head and said i wish i never caught those charges
this is for all the brothers that want to see green
but not green correctional facility
just keep your head up and make that cream
and duck that man to the best of your ability
[b.d. buggz]
they got me caught up
god d*mn they caught me slippin
they got me locked up, 5 to 15 for that last shipment
called my mama and my shorty, told them daddy’s been naughty
people do the dammest things when they filled with fortys
i’m twenty one, i’m a man now, so i can stand trial now
regret living the life of a foul child
word! maybe being a nerd would’ve been cool
when i reminisce on school
back in the day, when i used to break mad fool
now i’m locked in the cell, no bail, who’s catching h*ll
you turn up dead, forget my girl, she ain’t sending no mail
they try to play ya, i hang ya, i keep my banger
ridin’ on prison bustas, giving judges the middle finger
i blame my father sometimes should’ve taught me the math
put me on that ole’ straight path, and i’da known the half
word to mother, my mama, she tried to teach me
my uncle tried to preach too but he ain’t get through
me and my crimeys had street degrees
jerked each other my brother, there’s no honor among thieves
so i partic*p*ted in the paper chase
it was all a waste, cause now i’m caught up in the wrong place
crime rules everything around me (what)
catching charges, mama bail me out now
(chorus)
l’ickle bad boy youth, who went against the grain
trying to make a little name, got caught up in the game
i didn’t realize i was part of the statistics
why didn’t someone kick the ballistics (2x)
