[Hook 1: CJay]
Cops the same, all of these cops the same
(Wanna have us locked in chains)
Stop, refrain; you know he gon pop that thing
(another nigga shot again)
Tell me why you shot that man?
He ain't have a Glock, just pocket change
We got a whole lot to change, a lot to change
(repeat)
And I'm from Lauderdale, nigga I started there
And I hope the law prepared, claiming they always scared
Nigga I'm smart as hell but I ain't going to no Harvard Yale
This my every year New Year resolution, nigga I'm going hard this year
[Verse 1: CJay]
You can wish me good luck well
I ain't never felt how the cuffs feel
I done did everything but fail
Oh I don't belong here cuz it's upscale?
I just left Broward throwing up L's and and 2 middle fingers motherfuck 12
And since you think you look cool in that turtle neck you better duck shells
[Hook 2: CJay]
Cops the same, all of these cops the same
(Wanna have us locked in chains)
Stop, refrain; you know he gon pop that thing
(another nigga shot again)
Tell me why you shot that man?
He ain't have a Glock, just pocket change
We got a whole lot to change, a lot to change
And I'm from Lauderhill, raised in North Lauderdale
If you black you a target there it's real life I wouldn't call it fair
Shit get hard to bare but the top ain't far from here
This my every year New Year resolution nigga I'm going hard this year
[Verse 2: CJay]
Somethings wrong cuz now they got guns drawn for this unarmed (black man)
You can't run from the cops where I come from
They got your life in one palm
Run from... No you can't run from the cops where I come from
Somethings wrong
It shouldn't have to be a miracle to leave unharmed
[Hook 3: CJay]
Cops the same, all of these cops the same
(Wanna have us locked in chains)
Stop, refrain; you know he gon pop that thing
(another nigga shot again)
Tell me why you shot that man?
He ain't have a Glock, just pocket change
We got a whole lot to change, a lot to change
