the dungeons of Alcatraz
is worse than living in the belly of a killer whale
when other prisons say hole
a hole is a cell
but not for Alcatraz
when they put you in the hole
they put you in the hole
you can keep your flesh
they aim to kill your soul
prayer becomes extinct
stink is not the half of it
no rest rooms
you eat-sleep & live in your own shit
til the day they take you out of it
let's not forget the piss & the vomit
the darkness brings about
a physiological trauma
hearing voices in your head
crazy ill drama
inner demons battling with the life that remains
after 3 years in
God wouldn't come out sane
given time that didn't fit the crime
i concur with tupac
when he said justice was blind
late night beatings
and from the face
Henry's bleeding
with no one to intercede on his behalf
this entire system is gon' mad
children watching the ways of their dads
but it's sad
they will do the same thing
what other choice do they have
bad blood and no love
the hunter shot a dove
prisoners looking for hope & a sign of love
a spoon to the neck of a snitch
body rest in a shadow of blood
a young public defender just getin' his feet wet
he's in for the ride of his life
do or die he won't quit
he charges Alcatraz with murder in the first
the prosecutor scream this some bullshit
with little understanding
the political world is upset
it's a race to the finish line
or should i say judgment time
true story no Hollywood comedy
Alcatraz lost in a battle
