Send Penitentiary Philosophy Ringtone to your Cell
Here's my philosophy, livin' in a penitentiary
Brothers all on the corner
Tryin' to make believe
Turn around, ain't got no pot to pee
Make me mad when I see ya sad
Can't stand to see ya hussle doin' bad
But you can't win when your will is weak
When you're knocked on the ground
Evil
Don't you test me
Evil
You won't win
Oh why
(World)
Why world
Do you want me to be so mad? Yeah
So mad, yeah
Oh why
(World)
Why world
Do you want me to be so mad? Yeah
So mad, yeah
I'm tellin' you the truth
I hope I'm not being too cruel
Since you ain't playing by the rules
I'm 'bout to kick you off your stool
Evil
Don't you test me
Evil
You won't win
Oh why, why
Why world
Do you want me to be so mad? Yeah
So mad, yeah
Why in the world
(World)
Why world
Do you want me to be so mad? Yeah
Say why
I am a warrior princess
I have come from the other sun
Gather all of your members
Unite them as one
Move together in harmony
Build a bridge, now destroy a bridge
Eliminate your weakness
Conquer evil, the demon and live forever together
Why can't we get along
And take all the funky tones
And make up a funky song
That be bangin' on and on
Make me mad when I see ya sad
With the same look ya momma had
But ya can't win when your will is weak
But ya get out ya seat
Oh why, why
Why world do you want me to be so mad?
So mad, yeah
Why in the world
(World)
Why world do you want me to be so mad? Yeah
So mad, yeah
Why in the world
(World)
Why world do you want me to be so mad? Yeah
So mad, yeah
Why in the world
(World)
Why world do you want me to be so mad? Yeah
So mad, yeah
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Maybe, maybe, maybe
Oh, why, why in the world? Yeah
World yeah, world yeah, world yeah
Bring it all back
Bring it all back
Bring it all back
