Riker's island

Well listen to me, you young hoods, this is some advice
You do the crime, youre payin the price
Cause if youre in the drug spots, sellin crack on the block
Snatchin chains, bustin brains, like a real hardrock
If you ever hear a cop say youre under arrest
Go out just like a trooper, stick out your chest
Cause you might have been robbin, you might have been whylin
But you wont be smilin on rikers island

Just to hear the name it makes your spine tingle
This is a jungle where the murderers mingle
This aint a place thats crowded but theres room for you
Whether youre white or youre black, youll be black and blue
Cause in every cellblock, there is a hardrock
With a real nice device thats called a sock lock
Dont ever get caught in a crime my friend
Cause this bus trip is not to adventures inn
They have a nice warm welcome, for new inmates
Razors, and shanks, and sharp edged plates
Posses will devour, punks with power
After the shower its, rush hour
So watch your back before you get sacked
These a bunch of maniacs thats about to attack
If youre a hustlin pro, keep a low profilen
Cause you wont be smilin on rikers island

C-74, adolescents at war
Put your ear to the floor, you can hear the roar
They take you out of bc, they now found you a cage
All eyes are glued to you like youre up on stage
If youre soft as a leaf, dont get into a beef
And God be with you chief if you got gold teeth
Some try to be hard, front and say Im god
Dont know a lesson say a blessin, youre gonna get scared
(yo call the c.o.) that wont be necessary
Hell watch him beat you down, and take your commissary
Inside the lunchroom, you meet your doom
Someone is lookin at your sharper than a tablespoon
Use your hands like a man, dont go out like a chump
Never fess, bench press so that you can be pumped
If you dont got a game, you get beaten as lame
And scared as a mouse in a house of pain
So to all the jailbirds that listen to hip-hop
Move your pelvis like elvis do the jailhouse rock
You might be coolin, you might be stylin
But you wont be smilin on rikers island

If youre on a drug tip, dont be a dumbo
Police investigate like columbo if they think youre sellin jumbo
But dont get me wrong, it might be your thing
Whether smilin on the island, or singin in sing-sing
The way youre takin pictures and youre givin a smile
Cheerin, the priveledge for a long long while
So keep your money pilin, keep profilin
Cause ahh, you wont be smilin on rikers island
