Young Jeezy - Trapped (Feat. Jill Scott) Lyrics:
[Hook: Jill Scott]
Said that I know you`ve been trapped, (trapped)
Like you wanna move on, but they hold you back
To face consequences, of what you did on some bulls**t (yeah, wassup)
Said that I know you`ve been trapped, (trapped)
Like you wanna move on, but they hold you back, (ain`t no way out)
To face consequences, of what you did on some bulls**t (what you know bout this homie, trap life, let`s go)
[Verse 2: Young Jeezy]
Even though we had a will, we ain`t have a way, (way)
They just told us how to live, we ain`t have a say, (say)
All I know is the other side got some cuffs for ya, (for ya)
Fresh khaki suit, ni**a that`s enough for ya, (yeah)
Got ya spendin` all ya money on lawyer fees, (fees)
Judge throwin` numbers at you like he speakin` Japanese, (oo-wahh)
All cause a ni**a out here playin` bakery, (bakery)
I`m out here tryna get this bread, somebody pray for me, (haha)
I`m always on the block so I rarely go to church, (church)
Didn`t wanna hear it from the preacher, cause the truth hurts
And right now I`m so high, I should be scared of heights, (heights)
A Town ni**a I be on that kryptonite, (yeah)
I got deadlines ni**a no bedtime, (time)
The only thing promised to ya is some fed time, (time)
And how did I get here in the first place
Oh that`s right, see the trap was my birthplace (haha, Young)
[Intro Rap : Jill Scott]
You ain`t really really doin` it, (nah)
I mean honestly pursuin` it, (not at all)
Ca-cause, if you did you wouldn`t be murdering, (your people like)
Oh ya see, it`s a trap, (it`s a trap ya`ll)
It`s a trap (this the trap life, welcome to it, yeah, let`s go)
[Hook: Jill Scott]
Said that I know you`ve been trapped, (trapped)
Like you wanna move on, but they hold you back
To face consequences, of what you did on some bulls**t (yeah, wassup)
Said that I know you`ve been trapped, (trapped)
Like you wanna move on, but they hold you back, (ain`t no way out)
To face consequences, of what you did on some bulls**t (what you know bout this homie, trap life, let`s go)
[Outro: Young Jeezy]
Trap or cry ni**a till the day I mothaf-ckin` die ni**a
Till you put me in that mothaf-ckin` couch and you put that dirt on me homie
Goin, ain`t no way out
It`s death or jail ni**a
I`m there
Count me in
Trap life
Said that I know you`ve been trapped, (trapped)
Like you wanna move on, but they hold you back
To face consequences, of what you did on some bulls**t (yeah, wassup)
Said that I know you`ve been trapped, (trapped)
Like you wanna move on, but they hold you back, (ain`t no way out)
To face consequences, of what you did on some bulls**t (what you know bout this homie, trap life, let`s go)
