Plead The Fifth Songtext
von Zion I & The Grouch

Said i don′t know, it wasn't me
I plead the fifth


(Zumbi)
All quiet in the court now
Please take a seat
Face the judge who presides
In the courthouse-
Prosecution to the stand
In the next case
Big business vs. woman and man-
Now this includes the rule
Of pharmaceuticals-
Medicines approved to use
But they just neuter you
Mask the symptoms
But they don′t treat the root
Of the problem
The object hide the truth-
Mass addiction go get
Your prescription-
Ritalin or vicodin
There's something for
The life your in
Dope pusher with a phd
Synthetic warfare on your chi
Come follow me-
It's for the jury
Plus the mamas and the babies
Sometimes i look around
It′s like we all plum crazy-
Motrin so the pain
Can float away-
And i complain but
I′m the same they addicted me
To the numb out-
At times i want to dumb out
I try to speak the truth
In the booth spit a lung out-
It's business read the quotes
In the fine print
The corporates stand accused
What you plead?
The fifth

(Fashawn)
I plead the fifth, i know my rights
Ain′t no justice it's just ice, so what′s right?
And what's wrong, sometimes i feel like f*#@ life
It′s like the door to opportunity done shut tight
Back to baggin', crack mathematics
Trying' to keep it intact while this economy′s collapsin′
While we swallowin' klonopin′s and aspirin
Drowning' in disaster, we′re frowning' while they′re laughing'
It's astoundin′ how it happens, especially to young black men
Get us in they trappers, mentally it′s a massacre
And as far as the judicial system, it is inaccurate
Political savages fill up prisons like????
So it's me against the system, me against the world
Risk my freedom just to feed my little girl, only reason
So you know what amendment i′m pleadin'
Remember i′m a heathen, death before dishonor
Repeat it


(Grouch)
Jury asking me why i drive a gas hog
Why i'd ask the shop to lie so i could pass smog
The earth′s hurt, i know the repercussions
And so do y'all, we need some deep discussion
She keeps sufferin' and we keep hustling′
Even if it means other beings take a f*%#$@
I′m leakin' substance but reakin′ of a stench
I can't stand myself, y′all stinkin' up the bench too
It′s just the evil that men do
Murderin' our mother for greed and the ends soon
If we don't switch our please to guilty and then change
It ain′t enough to know better and just say (i plead the fifth)

Said i don′t know, it wasn't me
I plead the fifth

(Casual)
Catalog the chronicles honorably your honor
I done learned to keep my karma right
Armalite ar-
And all my life i done said it before,
I done beat the law i′m tariq the moor
The streets, it seems that they're ready to talk
I can′t relate the dream state makes everything seem fake
Your body into gas as fast as cremation
(I) feel elation, erasin' freebasin′ freemason's
A true friend, i blow herb
Medu nen: that's no words
And the crews like goldy in the realm of the rosi
While the chicks try and hold me like composure
All the little stories your tellin′, irrelevant, you′re lyin'
Intelligent design, the alien invasion
Stress, i got greys
Now i had the barber hit the line with the razor
Rehearsal? homie he late, but the verse gon′ be great
Who plead the fifth? ya'll speakin′ the first 48.
