Lyrics

Now as I flip through this world of mine Everything is lookin' peaceful I'm checkin' out these people The ones that's doin' good and the ones that's doin' evil Now as I flip through this world of mind Everything is lookin' peaceful I'm checkin' out these people Some doin' good and others doin' evil I heard somebody say I'll do anything nowaday to make a buck 'Cos niggas are dyin' and nobody gives a muthafuck And you be wantin' to trip when I be talkin' about murder and thangs I think it's obvious that you ain't never heard of mine What goes on in the neighborhood East coast, West coast, ain't sh*t turnin' out good Sometimes I wanna cry And straight put the 9 to my muthafuckin' dome and let the bullets fly But mama said I'm too strong to break down And I'm caught up in another drug shake-down 'Cos they think I'm sellin' birds But I'm workin' 9 to 5 and still ain't gettin' what I deserve So who's fuckin' who Is it that white man or the black man standin' next to you? See, most blacks can't handle power Get paid and get to changin' by the hour Closin' all the doors Got a little paper, now they wanna treat they people like hoes Now after takin' a look at that How the fuck you think the white man is supposed to act See we can't check the pecker wood If we can't treat our own fuckin' people good We wanna pick the fruit, but the fruit ain't ripe Yeah, now who got the right to write Now as I flip through this world of mine Everything is lookin' peaceful I'm checkin' out these people The ones that's doin' good and the ones that's doin' evil Now as I flip through this world of mind Everything is lookin' peaceful I'm checkin' out these people Some doin' good and others doin' evil Niggas are gettin' fooled by the president's plan In jail they got a president, but they call him the boss man The boss man is prejudiced, hurtin' 'em with politics Better let 'em out quick or they gon' cause a riot, bitch Even if you lock the door they still got the power 'Cos the fuckin' white house reminds 'em of the watch tower The man is watchin' over us, steady controllin' us And if we make a move he's ready to put a hole in us Every time I step he's always around me To tell the fuckin' truth, I feel safer in the county At least in jail I know what I'm up against But everything is a muthafuckin' mystery outside the fence Thinkin' that we made it, but we ain't made it yet And it's gettin' harder 'cos the man ain't givin' up shit, bet Steady lettin' us down And ain't nobody helpin' us out Now as I flip through this world of mine Everything is lookin' peaceful I'm checkin' out these people The ones that's doin' good and the ones that's doin' evil Now as I flip through this world of mind Everything is lookin' peaceful I'm checkin' out these people Some doin' good and others doin' evil Yeah, a new beginning, yeah Big Mike, yeah, comin' from that swamp You know, just kickin' it how I feel That's on the real
