[Intro]
Babylon
Tell me where the [?], rebel
Legal [?] 1994 Mad Spider comin’ for sake of the squad
Watch this, picking up the Tranzlator Crew, the Fugees in the meantime

Tell them [?] 1994
Are they think I’m gonna tell?
Well I never play God
With a licensed firearm [?]
Legal rounds [?] kick up [?]

[Verse 1]
A nappy-head youth from the [?] project
Every time I walk around I face a disrespect
I wear my head nappy, all my clothes saggy
Every time I walk around officer harass me
You and I know to get him running red hot
I [?] like this, you [?] trap
You should never leave home without a weapon
You just might have to make a decision
That's your one and only protection living in an unprotected nation
So Mr. Officer, why you terrorize me with my nine?
And Mr. Officer, why can’t I keep it by my side?
So Mr. Officer, always terrorize me with my nine
And Mr. Officer, tell me why they [?]

Well I never play God

Cause if you do, you just might pick up a bullet scar
Me say, clean my gun from dust 'til dawn, on and on and on
Dark to early, man, so ring the alarm bring the body [?] another one just died
