blue rage - black redemption

Tankard

Once there lives in times of crime
A young man full of ignorance
Formed the crips gang, spreading madness
Addiction, drugs, guns, violence
Like sleepwalking
On brutal ways
In southern central
L.A., CA

Prison shaped the mind of tookie
Death row, hell behind the bars
Got 25 to life
Prison shaped the mind of tookie
No governor-clemency "Blue Rage, Black Redemption" thoughts

Wrote to your peace protocols
That circumstance is no excuse
Warnings of a vicious lifestyle
Helping streets gangs build a truce
A nominee
For Nobel prize
Injection lethal
And so, piece died

Prison shaped the mind of tookie
Death row, hell behind the bars
Got 25 to life

No governor-clemency "Blue Rage, Black Redemption" thoughts
