“Prison (Z-Mix)” is Jabez Z’s remix to B. Wells' “Prison” from his album, It Is Well
This remix contains B. Wells' hook, and includes two Jabez Z verses.
[Chorus: Jabez Z with B. Wells]
I know somethin's wrong, somethin's missin'
Whatever you think it is: it isn't
Maybe someone was jokin' around and kiddin'
But that's no excuse when you're endin' up in prison
I know somethin's wrong, somethin's missin'
Whatever you think it is: it isn't, ah!
Maybe someone was jokin' around and kiddin'
But that's no excuse when you're endin' up in prison
[Verse 1: Jabez Z]
What's up, Zack? It's me, name's Whack
Just helpin' you choose to fable your life with make believe raps
I'm the one guy who got you in that position, ha!
Knowing that you're locked up helps me think of exposition
[Bridge: Jabez Z & B. Wells]
But I'm glad that I was snitched on, and thrown in the slammer (I know somethin's wrong, somethin's missin')
'Cause if it wasn't for the nail in the coffin, I would've never heard the hammer (Whatever you think it is: it isn't)
But those who judge are like construction trucks, ha! (Maybe someone was jokin' around and kiddin')
They build up a case, and the hammer secures it shut (But that's no excuse when you're endin' up in prison)
I'm glad that I was snitched on (I know somethin's wrong, somethin's missin')
And thrown in the slammer, 'cause if it wasn't for the nail in the coffin (Whatever you think it is: it isn't)
I would've never heard the hammer, but those who judge are like construction trucks (Maybe someone was jokin' around and kiddin')
Ha! They build up a case, and the hammer secures it shut (But that's no excuse when you're endin' up in prison)
[Verse 2: Jabez Z]
Zack, you gotta understand that the exposition
That I had just written wasn't plagiarized, it was fateful fun mixed with a little foreshadowed love
Everybody knows that I go hard, that's how you start
Just wait to see how hard you are, when you're behind the bars
[Interlude: Jabez Z]
Two months in YHA Group Home
Fix yourself, receive help
And don't return till you've seen improvement
Dismissed
[Refrain: Jabez Z & B. Wells]
Then the cuffs come off, but your not free (I know somethin's wrong, somethin's missin')
Your bastardized with other fuckers just like me! (Whatever you think it is: it isn't)
Then the cuffs come off, but your not free (Maybe someone was jokin' around and kiddin')
Your bastardized with other fuckers just like me! (But that's no excuse when you're endin' up in prison)
[Chorus: B. Wells with Jabez Z]
I know somethin's wrong, somethin's missin'
Whatever you think it is, it isn't
Maybe someone was jokin' around and kiddin'
But that's no excuse when you're endin' up in prison
[Outro: Jabez Z]
