mra (black genesis) - life lyrics
[verse 1: mra]
it’s been six hours since they put me in
put me in the pin
pin my picture up
to discuss
just what the f-ck is up with this kid
was 10pm when they had popped the benz
bent me over closed the cuffs
miranda rights to buff
up your intelligence
to let you know
for sure
to keep your mouth closed
i’ll show you “mouth closed”
spazzing out
acting an -ss
being the b-st-rd they labeled me
counting out the catering
the alphabetical ways
of my 23 hour stay
before the initial appearance
i’m hearing the judge shut up
appointed attorney
my car note was burning
a hole in my wallet
so my pocket
couldn’t even one up
my cell ain’t got no window
innuendoes
couldn’t even be given
i think it’s night when the sun up
preliminary hearing on the horizon
thinking freedom is what i’m seeing
closed my eyes as i run up
[interlude: mra]
but you know what
i had no idea
how corrupted the court system was
i wasn’t even in the same state
at the time of the crime
but i’m doing the time
[verse 2: mra]
lawyer stumbled in the court room
courts nothing but a game of chess
witnesses in the box who
never saw me but they point the best
laying down the law with the lies they tell
hand on the bible they all going to h-ll
off my pigment they just buried the bail
to bury the fear of me not going to jail
it came to my attention the decision
isn’t based on fact at all
they wanted n-ggas behind bars
to be put in the division of the ignorant
left me feeling like i dropped the ball
looks like i’m in for the long haul
next came the arraignment
of course i plea not guilty
they put my face in the pavement
so to the judge i looked filthy
trial coming soon so i pray the upper room hears me
before the doom set ahead if i resume peels me
open like a banana vulnerability k!lls me
i feel like a fish outside of water somebody reeled me
[interlude: mra]
order in the court
order in the court
i wish you would say something again boy
say something else
say something else
[bridge: mra]
i sit back taking deep breaths
jury still looking mean yet
the judge looked to me and he said
i’ll be married to the cell ’til death
[speech: mra]
life imprisonment

for the rest of his or her life or until paroled
examples of crimes for which a person could receive this sentence

life imprisonment can, in certain cases
also be imposed for transportation offenses causing death
as a maximum term
some american states and canada allow judges
to impose life imprisonment for such offenses
this sentence does not exist in all countries
but it sure as h-ll exist in this one
[speech: fleece johnson]
so you got a bunch of men locked up in one place
all of them get hard
all of them are h-rny
all of them have s-xual desires
so what are they going to do
they won’t let them have a woman
they gone have [?]
somebody’s going to have to give up some booty
[verse 3: mra]
(every night it’s just the same old faces
same old faces same old faces
every day it’s just the same old places
same old places same old places
in the shower please don’t drop the soap
i tie my sh-t onto a rope
every n-ggas a potential ghost
cause it’s pitch black at night you know)x5
