LYRICS FOR "The Jack Back"
"In this country a man's home is his castle"
I've been jacked by the racist scum
Klan
To make you Tapdance with a shotgun
On Donahue they said they had weapons
Just to teach black people one lesson
But I ain't goin' to your school of fools
So come here and look at my tools
You can meet and greet the Glock 19 in your nostrils
I'll splatter your dreams
Plans to overthrow are left in limbo
'Cause one loco bro chose to dispose of you and your skinhead crew
I ain't a house nigga with a twenty two
I dump a hollow point slug in your windpipe
Try to breathe
'Cause this ain't the jungle fool
And I don't throw spears
A Nazi and you ain't never seen Germany
But you was lookin' for a enemy
So you found a young brother with cash
Crashed my glass
Boy I'ma getcha back
Show you what I learned from the gangs
Stack 'em up deep in a six nine deuce
Long range scopes for the whole damn group
Hangin' outside a club called Moonshine
Waitin' for the right time
There he is
The wicked one dropped two shots in his butt
I can't solve racism with a gat
But this is where my head's at
"You ask me the n****** around here
Been treated awful bad for a long time"
I've been sayin' this
I wanna fix 'em with a crucifixion
Nail 'em to a cross and burn 'em
Burn 'em
It's been said that this would happen
Skanless skinheads jackin'
All up in the crib insult for takin' my force
I had to break North
The leader had a spray paint can
And on my wall wrote
Burned a cross in front of the hideout
Hopin' they could get my race to die out
I'ma 'cause 'em pain
I speak slowly
The wicked one is talkin' trouble
Blastin' skulls into pieces of puzzle
Damage 'em so bad
Not enough body left to get an autopsy
Skinheads
Bloodshed
Caught one of 'em
Thirty eight
I hit 'em hard and it hit the spot
I punish and plot with mix a lot
Now where's the leader at? Gotta get him back
Gotta get the gat
Call it a revengeful murderous pact
Call it the jack back
"Some things are worth killing for"
They burned a cross in my yard
But I can't cry
They jacked another black
I rack up killin' stats
Now
Massive hardware's in my trunk
Creepin' low and slow
There's one
Whassup
("No")
It ain't done 'til the punk stops breathin'
Watch Kunta Kinte get even
It goes like that when a brother stays strapped
Couldn't get a job so I learned to rap
Livin' kinda large and the skinheads hate me
Run up in my house and they tried to take me
Now I got the metal to his dome
A desert eagle
I got a black stocking cap yanked over my face
Anger is takin' rationality's place
Hitler's in the house and I'm takin' him out
He shouts but the barrel's in his mouth
Before I shoot
I yank my mask
"These boys were trained activists"
I'm not a slave but the Ku Klux Klan
And the Aryan Nation say I am
What's behind the skinheads out to getcha?
The reincarnation of Hitler
Now
I'm in a put 'em in a casket mood
Remember the days of slavery?
They hung many black men from a tree
We fought to be free real hard
And the black man's freedom must not be scarred
Callin' me an African Sambo
But after this
And I'll smoke any skinhead racist
With the black Glock that's in my fist
And the morgue'll be packed in body stacks
Memories due to the jack back
Caught the leader of the skinhead clan
You know the one with the spray paint can
Drilled him with a crowbar die
In the left ear
Then I took a knife to his chest
Carved a wicked message in a bloody mess
It was a warning for the rest of his pack
"This nigga got him with a jackback"
