Young Tez - The System Lyrics

Yo what's up Tez this Shorty Roc
Um, text me or call me back when you get this message
Next time you come to Philly, we definitely got to get in the studio
And see what we can come up with
Alright
Them people they want us to fail
Grew up in the hood polices will take you to jail
Get locked in the system no way to come up with the bail
Got caught trying to live your life, they really don't care
Naw, they really don't care
Them people they want us to fail
Grew up in the hood polices will take you to jail
Get locked in the system no way to come up with the bail
Got caught trying to live your life, they really don't care
Naw, they really don't care
Everyday it's the same thing, Black kids getting arraignments
School shootings, not the same skin, but we getting charged over statements
The system is broke
Get took as a joke
They calling us names, our bodies was hung from a rope
No joke
So where's the hope, Uh
I don't know what I'm missing
Some dying for attention
I just keep to myself
Endure it all go the distance
Give'em knowledge give'em wisdom
Hopefully, they'll listen
Cop shot'em, man down
No justice for the victims
Them people they want us to fail
Grew up in the hood polices will take you to jail
Get locked in the system no way to come up with the bail
Got caught trying to live your life, they really don't care
Naw, they really don't care
Them people they want us to fail
Grew up in the hood polices will take you to jail
Get locked in the system no way to come up with the bail
Got caught trying to live your life, they really don't care
Naw, they really don't care
Trying to make way for my brothers
We gone ball like we played at the Rucker
Money Talks like I'm Christopher Tucker
Free at last but we still got to duck'em
Foreign rides like it came with the hustle
Big chains like it's part of our customs
Designer threads man just look where we came from
And yeah she bad but I ain't trying to cuff her
Them people they want us to fail
Grew up in the hood polices will take you to jail
Get locked in the system no way to come up with the bail
Got caught trying to live your life, they really don't care
Naw, they really don't care
Them people they want us to fail
Grew up in the hood polices will take you to jail
Get locked in the system no way to come up with the bail
Got caught trying to live your life, they really don't care
Naw, they really don't care
Yo this ya boy King Leo
Shit, holla'n at my boy Young Tez man
Tez you got to keep yo muthafuckin' foot on these niggas necks
Keep dropping that hot shit bro
Man been knowing you for a long time
Since them grid iron days
Keep getting it, keep dropping that fire bro
One Love
