Following the rights movements you clamped on with your
iron fists
Drugs became conveniently available for all the kids
Following the rights movements you clamped on with your
iron fists
Drugs became conveniently available for all the kids

I buy my crack, my smack my bitch
Right here in Hollywood
Nearly two million Americans are incarcerated
In the prison system,
prison system of the U.S.
They're trying to build a prison

Minor drug offenders fill your prisons,
you don't even flinch
All our taxes paying for your wars against the new nonrich
Minor drug offenders fill your prisons,
you don't even flinch
All our taxes paying for your wars against the new nonrich

Prison system has doubled since nineteen eighty five
They're trying to build a prison
