Lyrics:(feat. Millenium Thug)American born, American raised, American made

[Chorus 2X]
My
country shitted on me (My country)
She wants to get rid of me (Naw, never)
Cause the
things I seen (We know too much)
Cause the things I seen (We seen too much)

[Verse 1
(Nas)]
It was packed on the Ryker's bus
The tight cuffs is holdin' me shackled
The
life of a thug caught in the devil's lap
On the streets I was invincible
Cowards would
duck at a glimpse if they knew
What my pistol would do, a fuckin' killa
Mothers of dope
fiend embarrassin' me
All in front of my friends
In the street smile with no teeth
I
never knew daddy, heard he had a 72 caddy
Died in a robbery, can't remember him, was probably
3
Why didn't my folks just die in this society
Why wasn't I a child of a doctor, who left
stocks for me
Two little brothers, two sisters, them shortiez gots to eat
Mother's a
junkie, she twisted, so all they got is me
I'm the provider, with goals to do much better than
my father
Whether through drugs sold, or holdin' revolvers
Blurry visions of dad holdin'
me high
It comes to me slowly, the words he would cry

[Repeat Chorus]


[Verse 2 (Millenium Thug)]
It is I that step up
Me that don't give a fuck, you that bold,
then it's all over soldier
Hummers and Range's through the desert
Fuck a 20 years, long as
we got gas and we got water
Troopers lookin' for manslaughter
I gotta get back, for what
they owe
Shoot'em in the back for the get back
Lead through shit bag, hold tie gag

Forget the life had, now we all rebels
Everything burnt down includin' the ghetto
We can
see 4 miles the land its major rubble
And debris from the earth as we knew crumble
Yo you
could see the sea
And the stars look closer to me
I'm a mad man, this is a real life movie
Mad Max
S-K's, AK's max, ABR's spittin' and it ain't a rap
My mommy dearest pray for me
hopin' I come back
But yo

[Repeat Chorus]

[Verse 3 (Nas + Millenium
Thug)]
Yo, I'm sittin' behind these prison walls
I got this pen and pad wishin' on a
visit, God
Brothers is here for homicide and yo, it's some for rape
Some brothers
innocent, I pray that I could just escape
How is the war
And yo I'm wishin' I was in your
shoes
Holdin' machine guns
Clean fun shootin' ducks with fatigues on
Anywhere is
better than this
It's America's plan every color of man inherits the shit
Yo I'm startin
to think it's all a scheme, nobody cares
I know the warden is readin' the scribe
[MT] But
yo I swear, it's a billion dollar business
Courts, lawyers and jails
We all slaves in this
business, I'm bout to rebel

[Verse 4 (Millenium Thug)]
There's not a bitch in
sight
All block bench, all block gates
All gray fence, look who fucked it all up, Mr.
President
I remember yesterday we was on the block gettin' bent
Now it's state of the
art
I just saw the first dude I met here, his head came apart
What a bloody mess, a slug
fest
I just buried 8 of mine, at night I hear grown men cryin'
You know I'm spittin'
mine
I ain't goin' out here, we gotta win
Everytime I hear the wind I think a slug went
in
I'm checkin' my chest, holdin' my head
Catchin' my breath, watchin' my back

Smokin' this grass, beatin' my dick, thinkin' of ass
I don't know what they broadcast, the news
hash is fake
Everyday I'm feelin' like you, I wanna escape
And if y'all niggas feelin'
like me, y'all niggas just say

[Repeat Chorus]
