Brixton Snow
1992, Brixton Prison, a golden dreadlock Snowy, plays his position, cooling in his cell and watching some television.
He walks with a limp through the wing, his boat bares a grin, and they say, "Have you got a pebble in your shoe and ting?"
Sporting circle sunglasses just like John Lennon, they cover his mince-pies, he is one fly felon.
He was a ragga MC, and he spat pure Patois. He didn't make generic hip hop, like your average rapper.
Now he is released from the shovel and pick, he's got his eyes on the prize, so he won't miss a trick! ...

Squealer
Did you pop up in court and do as I Is Me said
Did you suck the DA's dick and help the case get made
Did you make a fucking deal and turn on every fucking body you knew
You supposed to be hard motherfucker, what did the DA do for you
Did they cover that dick with whipped cream and fucking Nestle quik
Did they promise you the boys in prison aren't just long but also fucking thick
Funny thing bitch you committed half the murders that I'm accused of
They're claiming that they got prints, but bitch I always wore gloves
Fake ass thug...

Dedicated to my dad...
You were in and out of jail
I got all the letters in the mail
You never had to go
You made that choice all on your own
All I ever wanted was to know
How could you tell me you were coming
And never show?
Were all the letters you sent to me a joke?
I realize our relationship was already broke
I wanted your love but all you wanted was to smoke
Obviously, the pain you went through was rough
but don't you think it's tough how you left your daughter in the dust?

A Number 27 .
he'd drink a bottle
while still
fermenting glass;
didn't care
which labels
had flavors
the twenty six
dealers would
pass
-his mother branded
him the city
ass
and the law
called her "the gospel"
when his jail time
came to pass.
one gold tooth,
skin as worn
as...

The Consequences Of Committing Crimes
Certain people underestimate the police. They believe that they can get away with committing crimes. But prisons are filled with people who thought they could get away with crimes. They were mistaken and if you think you can get away with a crime, you most likely are too.
Yes, sometimes crimes go unsolved but for the most part, they don't. Let me give you an example. This is a true story. After 27 years of marriage, a woman and her husband were getting a divorce. She earned $100,000 per year. Her attorney told her that because she earned more than her husband, she would have to...

The Russian Cartel (Chapter One)
FBI HEADQUARTERS
Criminal, Cyber, Response, and Services Branch Department
New York, New York
Early Morning Briefing
“Okay ladies and gentlemen, I need everyone to listen up and pay close attention, this briefing will get underway momentarily.”
Marcus lifted his laser pointer.
“Director Modarius, this is the second briefing within a week.”
Marcus placed his laser pointer back down on the podium; he rested his forearms on the wooden stand and leaned his upper torso forward.

(Intro):
"Lay in your bed and enjoy the time passing"
"The tank feels so cold it could almost drown out the screaming"
(Chorus 1):
"Get back in line
You hear it all the time when the officer says to"
"I apologise I must've lost my mind cause i crossed it when i met you"
(Verse):
"Everyone must obey"
To keep everybody safe
Know that you're not a slave
Just property of the state
(Bridge):
Im enraged
Locked away ...
