king 20/20 - locked down lyrics

verse 1:
captives, that’s me you and everybody
pain on my face is only for the hotties
break the silence like a shotty, so john gotti
with the violence of a snuff film, bullets fill the bodies
physically, mentally, socially ending things
nothing leads to something if you wait until the bell rings
we locked down to our desks, like hanc-cks to checks
written to revolt against the locks and the bolts
run the playbook, they wanna see results on the page
deliver ya’ll the message, records still don’t get played
like a vinyl from the old days, it’s embedded in em’
sometimes for seconds, sometimes for whole millenniums
everything comes around, karma be the queen
captavating the captives, behold the dream
of becoming a liberated, eternal form of pride
verbal q’s by the wayside, conquer then divide

hook:
captives, captives
we all captives x2

verse 2:
i been here for 20 years, with no f-ckin’ answers
only slim chances, them friends who were actors
dish out the questions, like a four course meal
back alley deal, cop the drugs, f-ck the feel
f-ck the needs of the wise and the oppressed
social satire when they think they know best
blind men spoke fore’ they knew the whole world
or took they first breath, or met they first girl
five steps forward, with thirty more back
to where we were, without pickin’ up the slack
thank you, thank you, but i’ve had enough of that
plus the rat-a-tat-tat is becoming whack
murder our, own race, like it’s a race
to see how fast, we can evacuate the map
louis and clark better be grabbin’ a gat
to protect what’s theres and what’s yours, so where they at?

hook:
captives, captives
captives, captives
we all tragic x2
captives, captives
captives, captives
locked down, locked down

outro:
“to think yourself into the fact that…of this whole sense of importance of vitality, of aliveness and being, is simply a sudden experience. which was nothing before it started and will be nothing after it’s over. that is the simplest possible thing you could believe in. it requires no intellectual effort…nothing. supposing that’s the way it is.”- alan watts
