Verse 1
C#m
Yo

That trip to L.A. may be delayed
Why whassup I'm on my way

F#m
C#m
Somethin' about a gun
F#m
"The court calls Keith

Verse 2
F#m
C#m
Yo they got me handcuffed
F#m
I'm down in central booking
Things are fucked up the way
C#m
my future's looking
But I'm too fly,
I'ma change this scenario
F#m
Make some power moves and tighten
C#m
up my bankroll
Chumps are leary though,
F#m
they see me as a threat
I'm like the black Dutch Schultz
when you get me upset
C#m
Five-oh makes makes me want to flip,
Larry Davis style
F#m
Got a nigga depressed,
while he's awaitin' trial
C#m
It's OK though,
F#m
cause from grey skies comes blue
Through darkness comes light and I
C#m
be known as the Guru
And this I certify we all should be alerted by
F#m
the traps within the system,
C#m
our youth is gettin' murdered by
the D.A. says they got
me on a felony
F#m
I'm tryin' to live my life,
C#m
so what the fuck is you tellin' me?
The streets are war,
that's what brothers carry weapons for
F#m
And I take the weight as I did before
C#m
The next thing you know,
they got me on the radio
F#m
A rapper arrested,
C#m
suckers showin' me on video
Of course I know, that I'm a role model
F#m
But yo this rap life is real life
C#m
sometimes it's full throttle
Right now I gotta think about
F#m
me fuck the industry
You gets no love,
C#m
except those who support me
What's the story,
F#m
what happened when I went to L.A.?
Mixin' shit up,
C#m
no not there I got family
Nothin' happened,
F#m
mind your business yo step
You know we connect, JFK 2 LAX
Verse 3
F#m
They want to lock us all up,
C#m
and throw away the key
Don't want to see us come up,
F#m
don't want to see us makin' G's
C#m
Long as we know this is the key
to our destruction
Let's make moves no
F#m
discussion
Verse 4
C#m
Peace to my man Hass,
and Orange Man payin the cost
F#m
All the twenty-five to to lifers all
C#m
my brothers gettin' tossed
into the system, supposed to rehabilitate
F#m
It's why you gotta regulate
C#m
your own mindstate
Read, study lessons and build
your inner power
F#m
C#m
The next level, doesn't tolerate cowards
For example, I know this rich Nigerian
F#m
Powerful American that's proud
C#m
to be an African
He asked me why do all
us brothers be gettin' trapped
F#m
I told him I'd explain it broke
C#m
it down in a rap
Whether you got naps,
F#m
braids waves or no hair
Without esteem for yourself nigga,
C#m
you goin' nowhere
And you can swagger like
you rule this; Josey Wales
F#m
un organized revolt almost
C#m
always mostly fails
Give up the savage ways,
be effective soldiers
F#m
To elevate the mental is to be
poor no more
C#m
There's war in the streets,
prepared men know best
F#m
Our rhyme as live as it gets,
C#m
JFK 2 LAX
They're always makin' trouble yo,
against the righteous
F#m
Killin' us in cold blood,
C#m
those beats those vipers
And as I sit feelin' the pain in my wrist
F#m
C#m
I vow to myself that I'ma change this shit
Or at least I gotta try,
F#m
or part of me will die
C#m
And only by action will any ideas solidify
So I inhale, exhale as I ponder
F#m
C#m
This grown man will make mis
takes no longer
I've been there,
I've seen how they make us fall victim
F#m
to their tricknowledgy, with no
C#m
apology I diss em
And so I rip facts to dope
tracks I caress
F#m
C#m
You're gonna hear about it, from JFK 2 LAX
