I'm trapped inside the ghetto and I ain't proud to admit it Institutionalized, I keep runnin' back for a visit Hol' up, get it back I said I'm trapped inside the ghetto and I ain't proud to admit it Institutionalized, I could still k** me a n***a, so what? [Interlude: Anna Wise and Bilal] If I was the president I'd pay my mama's rent Free my homies and them Bulletproof my Chevy doors Lay in the White House and get high, Lord Who ever thought? Master, take the chains off me!
