[Stephen:]
What am I doing behind these iron bars
Never robbed nor killed, never done no one harm
You put me in shackles, you place I in chains
Said I´ll never see the outside again
Oh!
Yeah, Yeah
[Julian:]
I´m a prisoner locked up for what
Freedom of Speech ain´t that all we´ve got
Wounded pride my head held up high
Rebels for life, we rebel for the right
[Stephen:]
Let me out, let me out
I´m an angry lion
Let me out, let me out
I´m an angry lion
Let me out, let me out
I´m an angry lion
Let me out, let me out
Oh you crazy mother
[Mr Cheeks:]
Heyo, listen, took my freedom, my honor, my pride
To provide for my family I tried
Gots to prepare, cuz listen
We´s here for the ride
Vision´s blocked cause we locked inside
Iron bars
Took my freedom, my honor, my pride
To provide for my family I tried
Gots to prepare, cuz listen
We´s here for the ride
Vision´s blocked cause we locked inside
Iron bars
[Mr Cheeks:]
Yo I was caught in the mix with nowhere to go
Rent need to be paid things moving slow
I just want to get a deal and spit this flow
See ain´t that the dream to live well and get dough
You looking for a change man there ain´t no changing
This money, this gun, this drug exchanging
And if you got seeds that makes you go even harder
If it ain´t for them man then why even bother
[Stephen:]
You must think say man a sprat
Ain´t no back and belly rat
Well man a lion, yeah
You must think say man a sprat
Don´t play no back and belly rat
Well man a lion, yeah
Man a lion
[Mr Cheeks:]
Took my freedom, my honor, my pride
To provide for my family I tried
Gots to prepare, cuz listen
We´s here for the ride
Vision´s blocked cause we locked inside
Iron bars
Took my freedom, my honor, my pride
To provide for my family I tried
Gots to prepare, cuz listen
We´s here for the ride
Vision´s blocked cause we locked inside
[Spragga Benz:]
Wanna take away my freedom wanna take away my life
Lock me up, fi what? likkle sensimilia and a knife
So who a good feed mi youth dem eeh who a go care mi wife
You a gwan like ghetto people n´have no rights
Yow, You better let me out or else we gonna bruk out of here
Ghetto pickney we a go load dem in a truck out of here
You see any Rasta youth and need to puck out a hair
You luck out a here you got to duck out of here
Cause like a vampire a lot of blood you suck out of here
You tek way every cent and every buck out of here
And lock we up in a yu prison fi wi work out of here
We a go bruk down all the wall and get the f**
out of here
Blaze it!
