Escape from the Killing Fields Ice-T

[Verse 1]
Here we go, I'm movin' off death row
Ya gotta keep up hops, ya can't be slow
‘Cause their towers are high, they got the high gats
Check the perimeters good, Read the maps
It's night, they might not see us
‘Cause if they catch us out there, they'll bleed us
Shoot us, kill us, dump us in a dark ditch
Clean it up, call it a gang hit
I gotta make my move, ‘cause I'm a renegade
I recognize when mind techniques are being played
It's a plot they use to keep down another
Here comes another brainwashed brother...

[Interlude]
"Yo man, it sounds like you're selling out to me, ‘cause I'm from the ghetto; I lived in the ghetto all my life!
We ain't supposed to leave here! We're black! We're supposed to be poor!"

[Verse 2]
Shut up! Do you know how dumb you sound?
That mentality's what keeps my people down!
No one wants to live in an urban war
You live there cause your parents were poor
They live there because theirs were also
Get yourself together, hit the gates bro!
