lyrics

Daddy’s A Cop (Verse 1) So check this out cause I’m the proof in the pot I learned the hard way to never tell the truth to a cop After I said I’m a casual user of pot I got arrested and actually ended up losing a job Like damn, I can’t believe these dudes are in charge Plus not to mention pursuing a job in music is hard A minute ago I was minding my business Till all of a sudden this guy’s behind me by inches In his tinted windows to front hard speeding through Creepin’ in an undercover unmarked vehicle As far as I know I had followed the law So why did you follow me for? What’s the probable cause? Huh? Probably cause you heard the noise from all the songs And if not then why don’t you go and turn your voice recorder on? With your gun, vest, and night stick. It just doesn’t add up Already handcuffed and he still called for backup With 3 cops on the side of the road In the middle of the day all for some pot that I smoked You’re a joke! All cause I had an 8th of crops And unfortunately guilty cause my Daddy ain’t a cop (Chorus) My favorite line I was always taught was It ain’t a crime if you don’t get caught but If you do it doesn’t matter or not Cause it’ll never be a crime if your Daddy’s A Cop (Verse 2) The way I see it what I’m viewing is a pattern Cause from where I’m looking at it there’s a root to all this madness That fuels us in this rapping, music and this passion But the proof that you imagined ain’t the truth of how it happened My father knew you as a kid when you were boys Now they’re enforcing authority giving you a choice But I can’t be a part of all the sickness you enjoy And all of the spineless undercover snitches you employ Testin’ the levels that I had in my system Not a matter of opinion, this is fact vs. fiction Plus not to mention all the frauds you endorse And all of the stupid hypocritical laws you enforce And it don’t matter if it’s fair or it’s not Cause it’ll never be a crime if your parents a cop Like isn’t it odd? It just occurred to my attention That they’re above these petty laws of permanent oppression Damn! I’m tryna word this with discretion Man! You’re not a person, you’re a weapon Independent of the world’s institutions Above all the laws and absurdly intrusive I firmly refute this verse inconclusive Words on the loose from the urge of this music Cause all I want to do is puff on a blunt but They arrest us for the same stuff that his son does Cause it ain’t back in the day like it once was When everybody was driving around with a drunk buzz They let it slide when their kids light spliffs Then treat everybody else’s kids like shit Cause for the rest it’s like cells they want us held in And hell for anyone without a relative to help them Drunk driving while puffin’ the pot But it’ll never be a crime cause her husband’s a cop Damn! (Chorus) My favorite line I was always taught was It ain’t a crime if you don’t get caught but If you do it doesn’t matter or not Cause it’ll never be a crime if your Daddy’s A Cop My favorite line I was always taught was It ain’t a crime if you don’t get caught but If you do it doesn’t matter or not Because you’ll never get convicted if your Daddy’s A Cop (Verse) Now I know that people say that there’s good cops But how can that be when they’re portraying a crook’s job? Man that’s why I had to chuckle back at you When your only explanation’s that there’s “a couple bad apples” They need to get paid for their protective “service” though If I became a cop they would treat me like I’m Serpico Cause everybody knows if peace were their interests Their wouldn’t even be any police in existence But still harass just in order to keep charge And overcompensate for what they’re lacking in street smarts While their kids drive regardless what the speeds are Flash their Dad’s badge and get out of jail free card There’s not a shred of dignity in this hypocrisy No peace and equality the police are a mockery Rebellion is the only choice for me I guess Hip Hop has always been the only voice for the oppressed (Chorus) My favorite line I was always taught was It ain’t a crime if you don’t get caught but If you do it doesn’t matter or not Cause it’ll never be a crime if your Daddy’s A Cop My favorite line I was always taught was It ain’t a crime if you don’t get caught but If you do it doesn’t matter or not Because you’ll never get convicted if your husband’s a cop
