[Verse 1: O.C.]
Iāll make wax, Iāll pay tax, I donāt sell crack
Accept the kickbacks, youāre called up on dispatch
The deal you done did with a dealer, you done dissed him
Took letters from his box, now heās buried in the system
You see me coming out of my building, all types
Of days and nights, wondering if I got a nine to five
Clothes are always knew, so you cry, I spy
A flashing ghost smile, youāre in the corner of my eye
Walking, I feel the hawk over right beside me
Sober 'fore I act nervous and start to walk lively
Sharp-left from right, then I start to jog
Hearing speed accelerating from the J8ās car
The sirens sound violent, they inspect more
Not ready, Iām on the stoop with my man named Little Eddy
We start laughing, ācause next-door from me
Is a house that has traffic like drugs are free
But Iām a new face in a new place of a melan' race
Guess black in āem makes a good felon case, and thatās
Not so, and I get mad ācause everywhere I go
Long as Iām dark, rocking Clarks in my village, though
Police be clocking me

[Verse 2: O.C.]
Theyāre clocking, jocking, and knocking me, wanting a reason for whacking me
But I aināt committing no crime. Soon as theyāre stopping me
O.C. rolling for dolo, a solo cop car comes
Screeching in my presence, in a second, yelling (Freeze!)
Iām scared, I cannot stop, hop over a fence, running
Frantic, sending O.C. into a panic
I āfuse to be Rodney hardly, you wonāt scar me
Beating me down, yelling, smelling of old and coffee cinder
Fucking hard, but soft to a stick
Some cops are cool and some are just downright dicks
You wonāt asphyxiate me in a chokehold, death mocking me
So for that, eat my dust and keep clocking me
Check the speedometer, check how Iām flashing
Nightsticks, and you donāt have the same type of fashion
Two blocks behind me, two jakes, and one blue and white
Pair of Glocks = 32 shots?
I think not

[Verse 3: O.C.]
What for?!?
Is it my B-Boy presence mixed with mature?
Is it the stone in me, comb the city in a Benz?
Legitimate plus without ends
Paperwork was right, but sat us at a red light
Giving dirty looks, I guess assuming we were crooks
Scoping the car, tags up to par
Rims shining in your face with the tires Armor-Alled, and them
Dig it. all youngins my complexion have been through getting stressed
So I know you understand what I manifest
And Flannery, OāToole, Vasquez, and black cop Jones
All crooked with fat rides and homes
Watch your own PD, put an APB on your sergeant
Corrupt cash, careers skating on the margin
Next time, read me my rights, check out the snipes
Look behind you on the wall, sucker, I rocks mics, you dumb jakes
