X-Raided - Still Shooting lyrics

187, gang related, I'm accused And after every court date my face is on the news They say I wrote a song about a murder I maintain my innocence, it's nothing but a coincidence I'll admit it looks kind of shadey From the outside looking in The situation is serious but people don't comprehend I was 17 years young back in '92 Facing 25 to life for something I didn't do My song is supposed to be a big admission on my part And they're using the lyrics against me when my trial gets ready to start My songs are being misinterpritated It ain't nothing but the D. A. Trying to prove premeditated They've got X-Raided stuck, majorly crossed up The D. A. Got a f**ed up witness and my lawyer is a dump truck I've been sitting in the county, three years have already went by They're pressuring my Locs, trying to get them to testify Snitching ain't no joke, it's hazardous to your health When you point one finger at me, you're pointing three back at yourself My homies got convicted for murder in the first degree Ain't no doubt about it, they'll try to do worse to me They take me in the court room in front of an all white jury With the family looking me with barely concealed fury My lawyer standing next to me, prepared to represent And help me get convicted cause to him I'm guilty till proven innocent... Why they trying to give me deuce-5 to life? They trying to give me 25 to life cause I'm guilty till proven innocent... I open up the front page of the Sacramento Bee And read the article that Dan Mcgrath wrote about me He has his own opinion and it's his job to write it I say he's being biased and completly one sided The media write their stories
