6 in the mornin police at my door

Dead body on the floor from the night before

I caught a murder rap cus i bust a cap in a door

Left a body stinkin on the bathroom floor

Out the back door cops seen who done it

One homicide now one thats wanted

APB 187 now suspects on the flee

6 in the mornin its a homi-c-i-d-e

They said her body's mutilated cant get ID

Cuz I shot her in the face and took a hammer and bust out her teeth

Now I'm on the run with a gun and a sledge hammer

Thinkin to myself i be damned if im in the slammer

Ran down a dead end street here comes the heat

Next thing you know i got my face in the concrete

Now I got a court date on my way upstate

Prosecutin attorney waitin for my fate

30 questions are asked and 30 questions ill answer

And as the judge and jury looks on how do I plead to homicide

As I approached the bench my shakles dragged across the floor

(Where were you on the night in question) at the liquor store

They wanted me to tell the truth and nuthin but the truth

Ill tell the truth only if you got proof

They asked me this they asked me that

They switched the stuff up and asked the same shit right back

But I got my shit together I'm to clever

(Have you ever worshipped the devil nope never?)

I said it once I said it twice I said it three times

And then they pulled my file and found all sorts of crimes

The victims parents thought the cops should've killed me

They asked me how do I plead I said not guilty

They gettin angry they wanna hang me

They called me the devil and threw holy water on me

Order in the court its gettin outta hand

They got an eye witness and she's bout to take the stand

Now I start to panic the truth and my lies collide

How do I plead to homicide

The eye witness took the stand she said she saw me burnin candles

Then she heard a shot and saw my hand with the hammers handle

They seen blood and guts and called the cops on me

And when they came brain fragments all over the room

The judge and jury lookin at me like guilty

They one jumped up and said (Lock up the filthy bastard!)

God damn can I get a god damn break

How much shit can one black man take

But the judge is black and the jury too

All of 'em lookin at you know who

They asked me why did I do it I said fuck you

Show me a throat and I'ma cut through

They said the killing was a satanic ritual

Then they called me a sick individual

I dropped my head and tried to plead insanity

As you can see he's a threat to humanity

With no emotion in my face I saw her family cry

And since I'm guilty that's how I'm pleadin to homicide
