Yo

Yo premier?

Yeah whassup g?

That trip to l.a., may be delayed

Why whassup Im on my way to the airport now

Yeah well your boy guru got knocked

What? !

I dont know what this is about, sounds crazy man

Somethin about a gun

The court calls keith elam to the stand.

Please approach the bench.

[guru]

Yo they got me handcuffed, Im down in central booking

Things are fucked up, the way my futures looking

But Im too fly, ima change this scenario

Make some power moves and tighten up my bankroll

Chumps are leary though, they see me as a threat

Im like the black dutch schultz when you get me upset

Five-oh makes me wanna flip, larry davis style

Got a nigga depressed, while hes awaitin trial

Its ok though, cause from grey skies comes blue

Through darkness comes light and I be known as the guru

And this I certify we all should be alerted by

The traps within the system, our youth is gettin murdered by

The d.a. says they got me on a felony

Im tryin to live my life, so what the fuck is you tellin me?

The streets are war, thats what brothers carry weapons for

And I take the weight as I did before

The next thing you know, they got me on the radio

A rapper arrested, suckers showin me on video

Of course I know, that Im a role model

But yo this rap life is real life sometimes its full throttle

Right now I gotta think about me fuck the industry

You gets no love, except those who support me

Whats the story, what happened when I went to l.a.?

Mixin shit up, no not there I got family

Nothin happened, mind your business yo step

You know we connect, jfk 2 lax

Chorus: guru

They wanna lock us all up, and throw away the key

Dont wanna see us come up, dont wanna see us makin gs

Long as we know this is the key to our destruction

Lets make moves no discussion

[guru]

Peace to my man hass, and orange man payin the cost

All the twenty-five to lifers all my brothers gettin tossed

Into the system, supposed to rehabilitate

Its why you gotta regulate your own mindstate

Read, study lessons and build your inner power

The next level, doesnt tolerate cowards

For example, I know this rich nigerian

Powerful american thats proud to be an african

He asked me why do all us brothers be gettin trapped

I told him Id explain it broke it down in a rap

Whether you got naps, braids waves or no hair

Without esteem for yourself nigga, you goin nowhere

And you can swagger like you rule this; josey wales

Unorganized revolt almost always mostly fails

Give up the savage ways, be effective soldiers

To elevate the mental is to be poor no more

Theres war in the streets, prepared men know best

Our rhyme as live as it gets, jfk 2 lax

Theyre always makin trouble yo, against the righteous

Killin us in cold blood, those beats those vipers

And as I sit feelin the pain in my wrist

I vow to myself that ima change this shit

Or at least I gotta try, or part of me will die

And only by action will any ideas solidify

So I inhale, exhale as I ponder

This grown man will make mistakes no longer

Ive been there, Ive seen how they make us fall victim

To their tricknowledgy, with no apology I diss em

And so I rip facts to dope tracks I caress

Youre gonna hear about it, from jfk 2 lax
