Prison Politics

Let's take a trip, try not to trip While I kick these prison politics

First off, I've never been affiliated Hell yeah, I've contemplated

Decided it wasn't a fit for me Felt sufficient with my own identity

I just met that cat, yo, how the fuck I know he got my back

I seen rodents infiltrate, what you expect from rats

Bloods turn to crypts, Christians turn to Muslims Dependent on population

From day one I've been a civilian My position ain't up for discussion

Whites, blacks, thugs, bums, all up for drugging I've been oppressed by my own race

Cause I didn't agree with how they operate On the day to day, hit their own

But let that shit slide, another gang did Wasn't meant to be this way

It was based on unity Now it's opportunity

Trust and believe, I never put a OG through scrutiny

From prison politics To the convicts I represent

Be leery of them suspects These is prison politics

Know it like I'm The president

Picture this, my white ass Another cracker plus four blacks

Playing three on three, basketball About to turn it WWE raw

I'm guarding the new dude Everything started out cool

Just so happens three of the guys playing Belong to an affiliation

So I'm extra mindful what I'm saying Yeah it's a game but who's playing

Before I know it, egos get to going Testosterone flowing, y'all know it

My opponent being handsy Trash talking me just to see if I'm pussy

Trying to impress his buddies Come on, feel the tension

No, we packing a weapon Better bet it's coming with this altercation

Rather play a victim than play the victim I get pushed, you know I push back

Three on one, if it turns to a scrap All I got is hands

They got sharpened up tuna cans Yeah, all the shit you see on cable

Broken mirrors, edge of metal tables Once Fists are raised, reputation at stake

Just another day, just another day, just another day

Prison politics To the convicts I represent

Be leery of them suspects This is prison politics

Know it like I'm The, president

Rec time almost over I'm holding composure

Convenient for me, someone intervene Yard ending

Puts it on pause temporarily aint out the woods, yet

Got a bullseye on my neck I'm sure they had a discussion

By dinner, I'll know their decision Time to see if it's for my blood, they're coming

Chow time rolls around My cell door opens and I'm out

I'm walking vigilant with a soldier's pace Punctual decisions, no time for mistakes

Made it to the kitchen alive Telling myself the whole time

Thirty ain't gonna be the year I die Over basketball, ego, stupid shit

Others get hit up for much less Seen blood leak over a microwave, I promise

I'll never know but my guess is I got the slide For mutual respect, I was ready to fight for mine

Ride for mine, my name was on the line Instances like this truly is why

Men do what they want, boys do what they can Damn right

Men do what they want, boys do what they can Still stand

Prison politics To the convicts I represent

Be leery of them suspects This is prison politics

Know it like I'm the huh, president Rest in power to my man A

Who never got to make it out Who unfortunately died, lost his life in prison

Never got to see freedom again This one's for you G

That's Akilliez, woah
