I served my time like a man Get up and take a stand My life is in your hands And that ain't right Chorus: (it ain't easy) I don't want no complications, no isolation,(it ain't easy, no no) I'm just doin my time (it ain't easy)it ain't easy when your facin incarceration for a victimless crime(it ain't easy) Johnny Richter: Now I've seen a lot of people who got it worse than me Strugglin to survive, fightin just to feel free Incarcerated over dealin with a plant Or standing up for themselves for dealin with the man Its hard to think in a world of today That people get locked away for a victimless crime Doin serious time we must be out of our minds We need to stand up and get the laws refined Its up to us to stop writtin the tracks Start demanding the facts make the right decision A country run by the people was americas vision A democratic society where we're in a position That's why we have the right to vote But look what happened We legalize weed and the governments laughin Bush is still in office so we still in iraq We need to open up our eyes and take the power back (chorus) Daddy X: I served my time like a man Get up and take a stand My life is in your hands And that ain't right in this world its all contained From time to time we all make mistakes Sometimes in life you can't catch a break Living hand to mouth going day to day And your personal lives start to get you down And there's not enough goodness to spread around All the views of the world start sleepin in And the sides of the walls start creepin in Now your thinkin crazy thoughts of desperation And your faced what you don't want to be facin Situations, sticky situations Freedom dead now incareration (chorus) D-Loc: how come the government can send us to fight But I can't do the things that I want like smoke a pipe Its punishment, crazy and people lose their rights Over something so simple that grows from the sky Keep askin my self the same old questions No answers just a bunch of complications Its confusin but oh well This lifes a trip with so many stories to tell (chorus)
