This is a shout out to every young brother ya know
That's doin his thing right now
Keep ya head up
He walkin' the yard wishin' he had wings
Ya know so he could fly up out that joint
Man
If I could fly away
Ooo and I wouldn come back no more
I I turn around
Just to see you for the last time
See now I know
Hey that it won be easy
I done fought in a battle and I done made it this far
I gotta few more feet but its still the longest yard
Man it the longest yard I ever had to get in my life
And see my life ain right if my wife don write
My niggas can't eat if the fish don bite
My raise the gross sales like Mike and Nike
Now big brother almighty
I keep a gamma ray ia G-5 G
Take a G-5 jeep G-5 deep
Too some of their bare feet
And that jeep don speak
Listen mayne they lock it down round herre
See body bag and gag and your found round herre
This as serious as it sound round herre
The guards guard the ground 4 pounds round herre
And they ain playin theye just lettin you know
That anything they want to happen ni**a happen real slow
Get the word from upstairs put you in that hole
I can't take it I just ready to go
If I could fly away
Ooo and I wouldn come back no more
I I turn around
Just to see you for the last time
See now I know
Hey that it won be easy
I done fought in a battle and I done made it this far
I gotta few more feet but its still the longest yard
Yeah yeah its still the longest yard
Uh uh its still the longest yard
Um um its still the longest yard
I done fought in a battle and I done made it this far
I'm in my cell 20 hours a day
And doin push-ups ever hour a day
Cause i'm tryin to keep the cowards away
Thats why i'm markin off the calendar days
Tryin to get it out of the way
And i'm just tryin to keep a piece of mine
And i'm gon shame a motherf**ker with a piece of mine
Cause he tryin to take a piece of mine
So i'm gon slice his a** a piece at a time
But now that they close the door
Lock me in in a cell 30 deep but its built for 10
Tell me what kind of world they got you in
With the barbed wire fences box u in
From now til they turn off the lights
Ia read anything in sight
Its kinda hard tryin to read at night
But Ia change my life
And hope another brother take this fligh
If I could fly away
Ooo and I wouldn come back no more
I I turn around
Just to see you for the last time
See now I know
Hey that it won be easy
I done fought in a battle and I done made it this far
I gotta few more feet but its still the longest yard
Yeah yeah its still the longest yard
Uh uh its still the longest yard
Um um its still the longest yard
I done fought in a battle and I done made it this far
(Oohh no) I gotta make it out this place some how
(Oohh no) Man I really believe that I done turned it around
(Oohh no) You see all I need is that second chance to show
Since incarceration my obligation of rehabilitation
(Oohh no) They can punch me high and they can kick me low
(Oohh no) Spit on me it's gonna take more than that for them to break my soul
(Oohh no) Man its hard for people to understand what its like to be
Gated incarcerated I just can't take it but Ia make it man to see better days
If I could fly away
Ooo and I wouldn come back no more
I I turn around
Just to see you for the last time
See now I know
Hey that it won be easy
I done fought in a battle and I done made it this far
I gotta few more feet but its still the longest yard
Yeah yeah its still the longest yard
Uh uh its still the longest yard
Um um its still the longest yard
I done fought in a battle and I done made it this far
If I could fly away
If I could I turn around
If I could fly away
