dice raw - lockdown lyrics
feat. black thought, steve g’s
[chorus]
yo, they got us locked down, in a cell under the ground
tryin’ to push for a mainstream sound
yo, they got us locked down, in a cell under the ground
tryin’ to push for a mainstream sound
every artist locked down, in a cell under the ground
tryin’ to push for a mainstream sound
every rapper locked down, in a cell under the ground
tryin’ to push for a mainstream sound
[dice raw]
man, it used to feel like hip-hop had a lock on my soul
and a deal was the only way i’d get parole
i got knocked years ago when i wrote my first rhyme
ever since then, i been locked down doin’ time
payin’ dues with a lot to gain, but more to lose
i play the game, but they keep changin’ the rules
the studio’s a holding cell for lyrical criminals
doing demo tapes, hold mics like shanks
battlin’, that’s like a fight in the yard
lines chase n-gg-s down like lieutenant gerard
but i love it there, and some say that i’m inst-tutionalized
freestyling’s our only form of exercise
i don’t lift weights, lift my mind to a higher state
if your sh-t’s wack, you just can’t relate
i have nightmares of bein’ back on the streets
but when i wake up in my cell, i feel relief
bein’ on tour is like bein’ transferred to jail
and the companies reattempt to boost your sales
in my last case, they came at me with a deal
the d.
a., i mean a
