Once there lives in times of crime
A young man full of ignorance
Formed the crips gang, spreading madness
Addiction, d**, guns, violence
Like sleepwalking
On brutal ways
In southern central
L.A., CA
Prison shaped the mind of tookie
d**h row, hell behind the bars
Got 25 to life
Prison shaped the mind of tookie
No governor-clemency "Blue Rage, Black Redemption" thoughts
Wrote to your peace protocols
That circumstance is no excuse
Warnings of a vicious lifestyle
Helping streets gangs build a truce
A nominee
For Nobel prize
Injection lethal
And so, piece died
Prison shaped the mind of tookie
d**h row, hell behind the bars
Got 25 to life
Prison shaped the mind of tookie
No governor-clemency "Blue Rage, Black Redemption" thoughts
