What Can I Do? Ice Cube

[Intro: sampled announcer]
In any country, prison is where society sends it's failures
But in this country, society itself is failing

[Verse 1]
Tadow, how you like me now, I'm in the mix?
It's 1986 and I got the fix with the chicken and a quota
Got the baking soda, let the water boil, workers all loyal
Dropped out the twelfth
Cuz my wealth is shorter than a midget on his knees
Now I slang keys
Infest my hood with crack, cuz I'm the mack
Take a nation of millions to hold me back
Too big for my britches, and I got bitches
Now I'm hittin' switches, niggas want my riches
Used to get 18 when my G was alive, now a key is 13-5
'89s the number, another summer
Police ain't get no dumber
Streets dried up, used to think it would last
But being a king-pin is a thing of the past
They tried to blast me for sellin' a boulder
Now I got my ass in Minnesota
Got my own crew, it's on brand new
Damn, what can I do?

[Chorus]
Tadow
(Now it was on from dusk to dawn
And everything jumped)
What the fuck can I do?
Tadow
(Now it was on from dusk to dawn
And everything jumped)
