walking in the snow

作曲：Jaime Meline,Lola Mitchell,Michael Render,Torbitt Schwartz,Wilder Schwartz

Get a dose a dirty code to go, been cold since Co-Flow

I got a wire or two unlodgin', I'll set a fire down below

I'll hang it up when you say, "Sorry, I didn't know"

Prolly got a year or ten to go so lets go

I don't really know how to go slow

Just got done walkin' in the snow

Goddamn, that **'s cold (ay)

You in the wrong mode, you open and closin' your hole, it's a no go

This whole world's a ** moat, filled to the brim like GitMo

When you think it don't get mo' glow it limbo 'til the sticks on flo'

All oppression's born of lies, I don't make the rules, I'm just one guy

All due respect, if getting spit on's how respect is now defined

Hungry for truth but you got screwed and drank the Kool-Aid, there's a line

It end directly at the edge of a mass grave, that's their design

Funny fact about a cage, they're never built for just one group

So when that cage is done with them and you're still poor, it come for you

The newest lowest on the totem, well golly gee, you have been used

You helped to fuel the death machine that down the line will kill you too (oops)

Pseudo-Christians, y'all indifferent

Kids in prisons ain't a sin? **

If even one scrap a what Jesus taught connected, you'd feel different

What a disingenuous way to piss away existence, I don't get it

I'd say you lost your Goddamn minds if y'all possessed one to begin with

Just got done walkin' in the snow

Goddamn, that ** cold

Just got done walkin' in the snow

Goddamn, that ** cold

Just got done walkin' in the snow

Goddamn, that ** cold

Just got done walkin' in the snow

Goddamn, that ** cold (cold, cold)

Yeah, ho, Gangsta Boo, Run the Jewels

We back on our **, and it's cold as **

The way I see it you're probably freest from the ages one to four

Around the age of five you're shipped away for your body to be stored

They promise education, but really they give you tests and scores

And they predictin' prison population by who scoring the lowest

And usually the lowest scores the poorest and they look like me

And everyday on evening news they feed you fear for free

And you so numb you watch the cops choke out a man like me

And 'til my voice goes from a shriek to whisper, "I can't breathe"

And you sit there in the house on couch and watch it on TV

The most you give's a Twitter rant and call it a tragedy

But truly the travesty, you've been robbed of your empathy

Replaced it with apathy, I wish I could magically

Fast forward the future so then you can face it

And see how **ed up it'll be

I promise I'm honest, they coming for you

The day after they comin' for me

I'm readin' Chomsky, I read Bukowski

I'm layin' low for a week

I said somethin' on behalf of my people

And I popped up in Wikileaks

Thank God that I'm covered, the devil come smothered

And you know the evil don't sleep

** Gregory told me a couple of secrets before he laid down in his grave

All of us serve the same masters, all of us nothin' but slaves

Never forget in the story of Jesus, the hero was killed by the state

Just got done walkin' in the snow

Goddamn, that ** cold

Just got done walkin' in the snow

Goddamn, that ** cold

Just got done walkin' in the snow

Goddamn, that ** cold

Just got done walkin' in the snow

Goddamn, that ** cold (cold, cold)

Who really wanna run it with the Jewel Runners?

Go hellfire hot in a new sauna

It's a cold winter baby and a cruel summer

I suicide bomb in the blue Hummer

And emerge out the side, not a bruise on 'em

Bad news come in two son, do somethin'

Treat beats like a wet thigh, chew on 'em

Got a stroke row crew on 'em, move on 'em

We be the heroes, the breakers of chains and the busters of locks (locks, locks)

You be them suckers supportin' them snitches that talk to the cops

This the Illmatic of turning your face in to **er foie gras

I'm not so sure opportunities knocking, it's probably the law

Word to the old school tape decks

I get Radio Raheem respect

My Nike pendant sacred, similar to the Ghostface bracelet

Fire in the hole, oh no joke

Probably go broke just off smoke

** are we gonna do, not smoke?

Get a job, play the role, be adults?

Nah, I'ma do me, arigato

First of all, they cheated (uh-huh)

'Cause if one of them black and the other one white (uh-huh)

So if you don't like 'em, you automatically racist (ah, oh, well)
