I Shot The Sheriff |
| I had to shoot the sheriff it was justifiable |
| he mistaked me for somebody who was liable |
| for all tha many murders l. |
| a and war fields |
| we keep makin war shields |
| streets keep souls |
| young brothers loose control |
| I seem to maintain through this |
| watch where ya kick it they’ll put you in a twist |
| and it aint nobody like my down ass hommie |
| and tha police always tryin to pin some bullshit on me |
| I keep away from fools |
| they do crime and it attracts cops |
| cops got guns and cuffs |
| and cells to stuff you in Verse Two: |
| They tryin’to stick with some bullshit that I did not do you know who |
| the boys in blue |
| there they go with they assumpitons |
| slaverys over let us have somethin' |
| why you wanna pull me over? |
| Cuz I’m bumpin? |
| I just made a new song |
| my profession is music |
| your profession is protection with gats |
| then use it on him when he’s tryin’to take my life away |
| I’m just tryin’to live my life today |
| so I keep away from fools they do crime it attract cops |
| cops got guns and cuffs |
| and cells to stuff you in Verse Three: |
| I shot the sheriff |
| I didn’t shoot the deputiy I didn’t have to Cuz in this game they always tryin’to blast you |
| and leave it to tha cops to find out who did the murder |
| they harrase tha wrong clan and arrest tha wrong man |
| the hommie day-dog got strapped but thats okay |
| cuz I’m gonna work for life |
| so he can see another day |
| a hommies a hommie |
| a fake is a snake |
| straight game from tha pen from tha hommie jake |
| so I keep away from fools they do crime it attract cops |
| cops got guns and cuffs |
| and cells to stuff you in |
