| Yo Premier?
|
| Yeah whassup G?
|
| That trip to L.A., may be delayed
|
| Why whassup I’m on my way to the airport now
|
| Yeah well your boy Guru got knocked
|
| WHAT?!
|
| I don’t know what this is about, sounds crazy man
|
| Somethin about a gun
|
| The court calls Keith Elam to the stand.
|
| Please approach the bench.
|
| Yo they got me handcuffed, I’m down in central booking
|
| Things are fucked up, the way my future’s looking
|
| But I’m too fly, I’ma change this scenario
|
| Make some power moves and tighten up my bankroll
|
| Chumps are leary though, they see me as a threat
|
| I’m like the black Dutch Schultz when you get me upset
|
| Five-oh makes me wanna flip, Larry Davis style
|
| Got a nigga depressed, while he’s awaitin trial
|
| It’s OK though, cause from grey skies comes blue
|
| Through darkness comes light and I be known as the Guru
|
| And this I certify we all should be alerted by the traps within the system, our youth is gettin murdered by the D.A. |
| says they got me on a felony
|
| I’m tryin to live my life, so what the fuck is you tellin me?
|
| The streets are war, that’s what brothers carry weapons for
|
| And I take the weight as I did before
|
| The next thing you know, they got me on the radio
|
| A rapper arrested, suckers showin me on video
|
| Of course I know, that I’m a role model
|
| But yo this rap life is real life sometimes it’s full throttle
|
| Right now I gotta think about me fuck the industry
|
| You gets no love, except those who support me What’s the story, what happened when I went to L.A.
|
| Mixin shit up, no not there I got family
|
| Nothin happened, mind your business yo step
|
| You know we connect, JFK 2 LAX
|
| Chorus: Guru
|
| They wanna lock us all up, and throw away the key
|
| Don’t wanna see us come up, don’t wanna see us makin G’s
|
| Long as we know this is the key to our destruction
|
| Let’s make moves no discussion
|
| Peace to my man Hass, and Orange Man payin the cost
|
| All the twenty-five to lifers all my brothers gettin tossed
|
| into the system, supposed to rehabilitate
|
| It’s why you gotta regulate your own mindstate
|
| Read, study lessons and build your inner power
|
| The next level, doesn’t tolerate cowards
|
| For example, I know this rich Nigerian
|
| Powerful American that’s proud to be an African
|
| He asked me why do all us brothers be gettin trapped
|
| I told him I’d explain it broke it down in a rap
|
| Whether you got naps, braids waves or no hair
|
| Without esteem for yourself nigga, you goin nowhere
|
| And you can swagger like you rule this; |
| Josey Wales
|
| unorganized revolt almost always mostly fails
|
| Give up the savage ways, be effective soldiers
|
| To elevate the mental is to be poor no more
|
| There’s war in the streets, prepared men know best
|
| Our rhyme as live as it gets, JFK 2 LAX
|
| They’re always makin trouble yo, against the righteous
|
| Killin us in cold blood, those beats those vipers
|
| And as I sit feelin the pain in my wrist
|
| I vow to myself that I’ma change this shit
|
| Or at least I gotta try, or part of me will die
|
| And only by action will any ideas solidify
|
| So I inhale, exhale as I ponder
|
| This grown man will make mistakes no longer
|
| I’ve been there, I’ve seen how they make us fall victim
|
| to their tricknowledgy, with no apology I diss em And so I rip facts to dope tracks I caress
|
| You’re gonna hear about it, from JFK 2 LAX |
