[Intro: Ubiquitous]
Yah, ah
You heard about it but, couldn't believe it
That they would kill a man, just for breathin
And you were thinkin fat chance there's a reason
Until you hear the BLAT-BLAT then you see it
You heard about it but, couldn't believe it
That they would kill a man, just for breathin
And you were thinkin fat chance there's a reason
Until they hear the BLAT, BLAT-BLAT, da-BLAT

[Ubiquitous]
Well okay now they thinkin that the gunplay
was just an isolated thing from the one place
I tell 'em hell naw, keep a celly cell on
And follow Philando, Alton and Delrawn
Out in Dallas they were caught up in the onslaught
Had a couple cop duckin from the pop-pop
Body drop, it was lookin like he on top
Then they killed that motherfucker with the bomb bot
Now we cookin up the beef and the grill hot
You ain't hear about the deal with the Chilcot
It's a jagged little pill and the pill caught
in your throat and you wonder when it will stop
Greenpeace on the beach for the whale watch
Innocents still sittin in the cell block
Got you wishin on a tail of the Hale-Bopp
Lookin for the gold ticket in the mailbox
Got a broke down livin in my locale
Killa City block business you don't know about
Donald Trump on a ticket we don't know how
Everybody lined up hopin that they vote count
Maybe for they kids sake, how do you dictate
the real winner when they runnin in a fixed race?
Either which way, whoever you pick paid
off by the rich motherfuckers in a big way
Gridlock on the government to this day
And everybody in the senate on a sick day
Lawmakers all caught up in the red tape
I read about it and I'm feeling like a headcase
Now they sayin that I mighta made a mistake
And that I probably shoulda put it on a mixtape
Instead I put it on my name as on a list tape
And if they kill me then my baby mama gets paid
FUCK Y'ALL!

[Chorus]
We can pretend we don't see it like our lids, locked
But the government is all caught up in grid, lock
Read about it and you wonder when will it, stop
Gotta get mine 'fore I got caught up and get, got
... Grid, lock
But the government is all caught up in grid, lock
Read about it and you wonder when will it, stop
Gotta get mine 'fore I get caught up and get, got

[Godemis]
Yeah, here we go
Everybody's so uneducated on the problem
I don't think I'll live to see the day that people solve it
Killin unarmed individuals in cold blood
Now if that ain't murder what the fuck am I to call it?
They don't even give a shit and everybody saw it
And why would they when they runnin around lawless?
Actin like a ghetto celebrity when they floss it
Worst kept secret to everybody who lost it
What's the repercussion for puttin bodies in coffins
when you got a family member runnin for office?
Movin in the circle of real killers and bosses
Who the one to lose and they never take any losses
Anybody be gone, yes pardon me but your honor
I don't wanna be conned and I don't wanna be conquered
I don't wanna be caged and I don't wanna be master
I don't wanna be instrumental in a disaster
Murderin them and after, gatherin all the data
I can see what the media think, it don't really matter
People do what they gotta to make a move up the ladder
Stickin whoever long as their pockets are gettin fatter
Mama's are gettin madder, daddy don't give a damn
If people are in the street, dedicatin the jam
I'm lookin at Mother Nature, hollerin "No ma'am"
Killin the little piggy literally goin +HAM+
And the fat cats actin like they know best
Live a care-free life feelin no stress
Will they ever pay for it? Never know I guess
But they don't give a shit about a protest
I said the fat cats actin like they know best
Live a care-free life feelin no stress
Will they ever pay for it? Never know I guess
But they don't give a shit about a protest
C'mon~!

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Grid, lock...
Gotta get mine 'fore I get caught up and {*gunshots and sirens*}
