Behind Bars

Slick Rick Behind Bars歌詞
1.All Alone(No One To Be With)

As a youth, each sunday, dawn went to church and
Paid her respects and not to mention was a virgin.
Kid pushed up, dawn lettin' him
Since he made her laugh and all the other girls was sweatin'
him.
Then things started to move without cause
And a couple o'months later kid's pushin' for the drawers.
Under pressure while exchangin' glances
Dawn finally gives in to the sexual advances.
Although it was a mad high cost for her
Cuz' after the thrill was gone, so was the lust for her.
Eventually he left her for another.
Now feeling alone and betrayed by her lover
She cried--for no longer knew which way she headed.
Once dreamed of actually wearing white at her wedding
And really being pure, now she thought she'd die without.
Still she finds strength to continue with her life without
Love...
Without love...
Without love...
Without love...

Verse two of dawn's life--the second segment.
What could be worse than to now find out you're pregnant?
Poor dawn couldn't sleep--laid awake
Not ready for a child and plus her mother's gonna break.
As she doesn't know how she's gonna bring up the subject,
Consequences of being used as an object.
In church though time's runnin' thin
She decides to have the child because the doesn't want to sin.
Props to the girl although it hit hard times;
It was hell finishin' school and working part-time.
Yet dawn did it though her youth went to waste.
Little help from the government, she got her own place.
Hard for an indepentant woman and a kid
And as soon as she could get off the assistance, she did.
Without no man who she once thought she'd die without
Still she finds the strength to continue with her life without
Love...
Life without love...
Life without love...
Continue with her life without love...

While dawn worked two jobs tryin' to meet ends,
Her son was busy cuttin' school and hangin' with his friends.
So when she got words she tried to slap out the taste in his
mouth
And explain how important education is.
Under stress, she takes two bufferin.
Son now tired of seein' his poor mother sufferin'.
Starts to sell drugs though the cops did a raid.
Guess who's in the mix, and being legal age
Could do time, please call her employer
To inform her that her son is gonna' need a lawyer.
Never no good news, just more strife.
Dawn barely havin' enough time to live her own life.
Here's the judge's sentence, beggin' and pleadin'.
Now spends nine hours on the bus to go and see him.
Here's the judge's sentence, beggin' and pleadin'.
Now spends nine hours on the bus to goa nd see him.
Without no man who she once thought she'd die without
Still she finds the strength to continue with her life without
Love...
Life without love...
Life without love...
Life without love...
Continues life without love...


2.A Love That's True(Part 2)


3.A Love That's True(Part One)

So you get my point son,
You just don't trust no bitch, you know what i'm sayin?
'okay, daddy, i understand'
Cause bitches ain't no good, you know what i'm sayin?
'okay, i get your point'
Anyway, listen to this, check it out

1994, as the world gets trifer,
I'm wondering, the fuck i need a woman in my life for? (ya know)
Cause its like a nigga whole history
With you hoes been nothing but misery
First rater, five-one stood
Mad coke fiend though the bitch looked good
Met her at the fever
'what's going on, stranger?'
And like a fool took her in and tried to change her
I don't who i thought i's bluffing
That bitch wasn't giving up that coke for nothing
'oh, you trying to dis, mister bougeois nigger
Yet back in the day, you used to smoke coke cigarettes too,
That type shit you ain't admitting'
Because, homegirl, i grew out of it, you didn't
Anyway, dead out of order
Came in with a sheepskin her ex-lover bought her
Who gave you that?
'my ex'
I said 'who?'
Believe she had the nerve to say 'you can wear it too'

When i found strength to depart, i do
Withdrew, for something brand new
Someone who would be true
Yes i should find someone who would be true

(singing)
Cause ricky needs a love that's true
Truuuuuuuuuuue, oh dear, scooby dooby doo
Scooby doo doo

Then i met sin,
Sweating the viking
A brown skinned fox, slim just like i like them
'what? sweating you? picture that, nerd. please'
Anyway, the bitch had herpes! (you know)
Imagine me, the fool being the spouse
Doctor said i couldn't catch it unless i got aroused
Found out snooping in her bag what she got
Now why you ain't tell me? you worthless slut!
'because i loved you at the time and couldn't afford to'
You know homegirl should get the oscar award for her lying
Anyway, stayed with the creep
One day, sybil here, talking in her sleep
'chris, wait,' the bum bitch said
So loud till a motherfucker fell out the bed
Who the hell is chris? she putting up resistance
Till i caught her calling the nigger long distance
Had the nerve to dis patch loving
Boy am i lucky that i didn't catch nothing

When i found strength to depart, i do
Withdrew, for something brand new
Someone who would be true
Yes i should find someone who would be true

(singing)
Cause ricky needs a love that's true
Truuuuuuuuuuue, truuuuuuuuue
Indeed, i need a love that's true
It seems i need a love that's true
Oh dear, scooby dooby doo
Oh gosh, scooby doo doo-ooh (doo-ooh)

Though happy i was free
The need for love was still in me
Got to the point where the need for it was killing me
Then i met short here, hanging with my cousin
Found out later how young the bitch was and
Though i done hit it and she opened up a world
And remind me of that song 'go away, little girl'
It had to end because the bitch weren't loyal, and spoiled
'that's because i had you pussy whipped royal'
You see the type of shit the nigger was gonna marry?
You see the type of attitude the bum bitch carry?
Like oil and water, impossible mixture
Then temper tantrums came into the picture
Yelling (ahhhh), carrying on bad and cursing
Complete embarassment to the ruler as a person
'gimme shorts'
Ruler will not permit you
Then she goes wild, starts breaking up my furniture
Flirts too, excuse me, a whore
Like the world's worst groupie when i brought her on tour

So when i found strength to depart, i do
Withdrew, for something brand new
Someone who would be true
Yes i should find someone who would be true

(singing)
Cause ricky needs a love that's true
Truuuuuuuuuuue, truuuuuuuuue
Indeed, i need a love that's true
It seems i need a love that's true
Oh dear, scooby dooby doo
Oh gosh, scooby doo doo
Ricky needs a love that's true-hoo-hoo


4.Behind Bars(Dum Ditty Dum Mix)

(warren g)
Check this out, this warren g, y'know what i'm saying
Chilling wit my man slick rick, you know
And we gonna give you all a little tale about this jail stuff
You know, so rick, why don't you run it homie, yea

(slick rick)

In the slammer kid but i'm innocent
Lord played witty wasn't having any pity
Now wit razor blades, did he
Cry suppose the situation seen mad eyes of foes
Drives a rolls, hey, yo, money, what size are those
Need to phone me toanothe sprang up,hm, to gang up
On the skid, housing the phone like he didn't know how to hang
up
Would be hard though ought a minute or so and then yells time on
a
And when you get your commisary, buy this and that or else i'm
gonna
Be on that ass and won't stay off, extort, fig i say, way off
Beaten death, you ain't protecting me, forgot today's my day off
Hold my head and drift the ?sumo weighing nuts and cars?
Instead of sitting here accumulating cuts and scars, behind bars

Chorus:
Dum ditty dum ditty ditty datty day
This type of shit happens every day
Take some punk locked up to get beat down, ripped down to his
boots is broke
Down
Dum ditty dum ditty ditty datty day
This type of shit happens every day
Riots, malay and disturbances of the peace

(warren g)

Mister slick rick let me take it for a second
And tell a short tale about the la county jail
9500 that was the lock up
When the lights got dim, it was time for the soccer
Jacking for the money, backstab was my mission
If a riot jumped out, it's time for incision
Sticking niggas here and sticking niggas there
I turn around and look and seen cops everywhere
Jacking brothers up, slapping brothers up
If you got blood on your clothes, lock up
High powered was the level, level fo'
Niggas sentenced to life and you can't be no ho (bitch)
Or you can't tooken wit homies overlooken
As safe next door wit the puma straight cooking
Lighten up the whole module, hm
Godamn, yea, anothe squabble

Chorus

(slick rick)

Showing off cuz on the phone, click, losing all the hoes off
Nigga housed the watch and ?donna? took all of the clothes off
Nigga hell with the was for my clothes figured telling
Every night it seem like mice be in and out a nigga cell and
Still ain't home, like on the hook, seen a bunch of kids look
Miss outdoors, never know what you have until it's tooken
And in fact, the moment you fear, all of that, you quote snaps
Well in a cell, did the exercises and wrote raps
I be a bigger star than you, no never heard of the nigga
Takes my raps and read aloud, i want to murder the migga
Just kidding, no offend to it, finally he ended it
Case dismissed, but your honor, da kindly prevented it
He told to the judge, don't free him, this brother trigger wars
And not just that because i refuse to wash some jive nigga doors
So hold the head, drift the ?sunot weight and nuts and cars?
Instead of sitting here accumulating cuts and scars
Behind bars

Chorus

One fight, the nigga trip, seal the rest he might scared
By couldn't squeal, i's like officer that nigga right there
Now if he ain't get me his friends will, needed a utensil
It turn out, i had to stab him in the eye wit a pencil
State of shock, he made a yell, i said, now what you want
traitor
Co puts me in the bin, i see ya about a month later
Back in population, didn't matter that his friends tensed
The phone prints, the years added to the sentence
Still chilling and all of that and i escaped
When the damn thing sold, don't hit the sto' cause they made a
rape attempt
Thank goodness, failed, call out next, he wail out
Here go the co, ricky walters, back up, bailed out
The co couldn't see the rape, the kid'll snithc mass figure
Fast trigger, you'll be back, you little bitch ass nigga
Au vare, back to dating sluts and stars
At least for now, no more accumulating cuts and scars
Behind bars

Chorus
