For just about anythin' they can bust us, false advertisin' sayin'
McDonald eatin',  you deserve a beatin'
Singin', oh my, oh my God
Send you home a weepin', with a fat bill for your Caribbean weekend
In my mind they got us livin' suicide
Bombs on every single continent, mandatory minimum sentencin'
Singin', oh my, oh my God, oh my God
Latest project, the CIA runnin' like that Jones from Indiana
That, that car killed Diana? Hell I shot Ronald Reagan, I shot JFK
Threats and protests politicians mob debts
Algorithmic, cataclysmic, seismic, biorhythmic, you can make
And then you comin' after us' cause we sampled a James Brown horn?
And we say, " nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah"
Feds, left your school district for dead fucked you up in the head but still
"Halls of Justice'', you tellin' the youth don't be so violent, then you drop
In my mind they got us livin' suicide
Singin', oh my, oh my God
Stage a lethal injection, the night before the election
I slept with Marilyn, she sung me happy birthday
While half of my people are still outta workin'
Human cries, thumps and silence, the language of violence
Robbin', cheatin', stealin', white collar criminal
In my mind they got us livin' genocide
Singin', oh my, oh my God
In my mind they got us livin' suicide
Singin', oh my, oh my God
Listen in to my stethoscope on a rope, internal lullabies
Of judges and juries from Frisco to Jersey
Stop us no, stop us no, stop us no
The bong still believin' the system is workin'
Well, politicians got lipstick on the collar the whole media
Scientists who's God is progress, a four-headed sheep is their
I wanna know who they screwin' in public
And we say, "nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah"

I feel so mad I wanna bomb an institution
They sayin' nothin's wrong sellin' firewater but outlawin'
Reelin' without an inklin', keep ya thinkin' 'cause you gave cash to the
Oh my, oh my, oh my
Singin', oh my, oh my God, oh my God
In my mind they got us livin' suicide
'Cause he got donations from the prison guard's union
Singin', oh my, oh my God
Singin', oh my, oh my God, oh my God
And we say, "nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah"
A life longer, but you can't save it, you can make a clone an then
Anonymous notes left in the pockets and coats
Stop us no, stop us no, stop us no
Stop us no, no
Oh my, oh my God
In my mind they got us livin' genocide
'Cause he got caught with a pocket fulla medicine
Oh my, oh my God
And we say, " nah nah nah nah nah, nah nah nah nah"
Like money in the bank, I smell appealin' but I'm toxic can send ya
Oh my, oh my God
In my mind they got us livin' suicide
In my mind they got us livin' suicide
Singin', oh my, oh my God
Stop us no, stop us no, stop us no
Singin', oh my, oh my God, oh my God
Do that again another ten up in the pen
Trumped up charges and phoney arrests
In my mind they got us livin' genocide
In my mind they got us livin' genocide
Slam bam I come unseen but like gasoline, you can tell I'm in the tank
Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet
In my mind they got us livin' suicide
Singin', oh my, oh my God
Started to holler but I don't give a fuck who they screwin' in private
Singin', oh my, oh my God

This ain't no cartoon, no one slips on bananas, do you really think
In my mind they got us livin' suicide
You try to enslave it? Stealin' DNA samples from the unborn
Singin', oh my, oh my God
But they still won't talk about that Jones in Guyana
So we keep movin' on movin on 'cause they never gonna
Oh my, oh my, oh my
