System of a Down - Prison Song lyrics

[System of a Down - Prison Song lyrics]

They're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison oh

Following the rights movements
You clamped down with your iron fists
Drugs became conveniently available for
All the kids following the rights movements
You clamped down with your iron fists
Drugs became conveniently available for
All the kids

I buy my crack, I smack my bitch
Right here in Hollywood
Nearly two million Americans are incarcerated
In the prison system, prison system of the US

They're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison
For you and me to live in


Another prison system another prison system
Another prison system for you and me

Minor drug offenders fill your prisons
You don't even flinch
All our taxes paying for your
Wars against the new non-rich
Minor drug offenders fill your prisons
You don't even flinch
All our taxes paying for your
Wars against the new non-rich

I buy my crack, I smack my bitch
Right here in Hollywood
The percentage of Americans in
The prison system
Prison system has doubled since 1985

They're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison
For you and me to live in
Another prison system another prison system
Another prison system for you and me
For you and I, you and I, you and I
You and I they're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison for you and me
Oh, baby, you and me

Oh, oh
All research and successful drug policy
Shows that treatment should be increased oh
And law enforcement decreased
While abolishing mandatory minimum sentences
Oh all research and successful drug policy
Shows that treatment should be increased oh
And law enforcement decreased
While abolishing mandatory minimum sentences
Utilizing drugs to pay for secret
Wars around the world
Drugs are now your global policy
Now you police the globe

I buy my crack, my smack, my bitch
Right here in Hollywood
Drug money is used to rig
Elections and train brutal
Corporate sponsored dictators around
The world

They're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison
For you and me to live in
Another prison system another prison system
Another prison system for you and me
For you and I, you and I, you and I
You and me they're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison
They're tryna build a prison for you and me
Oh, baby, you and me
