Shoot the Messenger

(Message!)

[Hook]
Ayo, don’t shoot the messenger
They on the prowl, they creep up on the regular
They have a plan to overthrow the emperor
Oh so foul, they creep like Predators
Ayo, don’t shoot the messenger
They on the prowl, they creep up on the regular
Oh so foul, they creep like Predators
It can make the skin itch like eczema

[Verse 1]
Back up off me, I'm not polite to act rude
Catastrophic, walk the night for bad news
Psychotic, an awful sight, the baboon
Why stop it , the sharpest bite, Black Lagoon
Be the offspring, something you couldn’t possibly imagine
Woulda thought I was bluffing, but shot the messenger where he standin'
Too many questions, I’m getting too restless
Chop him up and use the body to send him back as a message
My preference for the sharpest weapon to use to break the cell
Where the wrench is, passed by the brother who deliver the mail
Get to work like I'm Andy in Shawshank
Hand me the sharp shank, pass me the John Blaze
As for them hombres who got stuck in the yard
The next messenger got pressed and plucked with a shard
It’s the environment that I’m locked in, hog spit
From a felon that be violent, but I find myself nauseous
Yo!

Ayo, don’t shoot the messenger
They on the prowl, they creep up on the regular

Oh so foul, they creep like Predators
Ayo, don’t shoot the messenger
They on the prowl, they creep up on the regular
Oh so foul, they creep like Predators
It can make the skin itch like eczema

[Verse 2]
The messenger turned out to be an informant
He was sneaky, listening to our conversation, recording
The observation distorted, they caught him with a hung noose
Black eye, bloody lip, and a busted bloody tooth
I’m telling myself to stay out of surveillance and all
They surveying the halls, while I game plan behind bars
Wish upon a (Gunshot) that far in the dark side
Suppose, I’ma break out of these walls and these hard times
The CO, see me, composed, but I got it made
Decode the computer that connect to the cell block
Open the gate, I finally made it out alive
Now, a revolution arise, I must get up off the island
The sirens flashing, the time’s been fast when
Hard to explain that my plan is finally happening
And as I no longer identify as a prisoner
I got ambushed, and tattletaled by the messenger

Oh so foul, they creep like Predators
Ayo, don’t shoot the messenger
They on the prowl, they creep up on the regular
Oh so foul, they creep like Predators
