Thats my third strike, so Xzibit cant go home
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
You see the judge, but he dont budge
~#**************#~
Thats your third felony, I believe, strike three
~#**************#~
Remanded and stranded, to the cold steel granite
~#**************#~
Lost to the world, your moms and your girl
~#**************#~
Keep your weight up, or your ass get ate up
~#**************#~
Cats is stickin, straight up wit the shank, get more time in the tank
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
They gave him life and now another cat is fuckin his wife
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
But tomorrow, youll be confronted with twos in the side
~#**************#~
If you a smart motherfucker, youll be falling with mine
~#**************#~
Behind bars, no bitches and cars, we only got time
~#**************#~
Where Im from, time is money and got neither to waste
~#**************#~
Once in a while, catch a Canaanite in the wrong place
~#**************#~
BEAT HIM DOWN! Break the strongest hand, piss in his face
~#**************#~
Strike fear, play the rear, ‘fore he catchin a case
~#**************#~
Low-class, got a dozen free visitors pass
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
At first I was shook, tried to play by the book
~#**************#~
But you cant bid your time by stayin in the cell
~#**************#~
Im getting high every day like I was still on the corner
~#**************#~
Where Im in fat pink caps, New York to California
~#**************#~
Making deals for mils, holding cigarette lottos
~#**************#~
Givin cats pills, and tell em, “Yo, try those!”
~#**************#~
Niggas try to scheme but my team is tight
~#**************#~
We as shady as the night and bring fright to sight
~#**************#~
Hey you be aight, but dont act like no sucka
~#**************#~

~#**************#~
Use control, put a cat in a hole if hes broke
~#**************#~
