Lyrics Prepared to Die - Ice T

Prepared to Die

Watch me flip and rip
On the freedom tip
Open your mind
See the point of the ice pick
I stand tall
While my brothers
Still choose to crawl
Black power, it7s in effect yall
But you don’t understand
You’re still a slave to the man
Prepare for revolution
Some sucker say we’re free
I gotta disagree
Half my posse’s in the penitentiary
So I’m a drop and kick the science
With defiance
Because I have no alliance
With suckas who choose
Not to act Black
When they are Black
Get out my face with that
You better ease back
Cause Mandela did 27 hard ones
Not in a windowed room
But in a barred one
While his wife had tears in her eyes
The man is a hero
He needs a Nobel Prize
But that will never happen
So I’m gonna keep rappin'
Freein' my brothers' minds
From their entrapment
To silence the Ice, they’ll probably
Put a bullet in me
But I’m prepared to die
And Mandela’s free!
