Law Library (part 8) Lyrics


Intro: Papoose
If your fam locked up and you sick of the law.
Take these bars to the visiting flaw.
Hurry up before they imprison us all.
Welcome to Law Library. Part 4.Verse 1: Papoose
Homicide. Put down your gun for a while.
If it's a full moon listen to sun for a while.
The definition of homicide is the conduct
that causes the death of another person or a unborn child.
I send these words to a mother if her sons on trial.
Food for thought. No more chow.
If you intend to cause physical injury to a person and you kill em.
Thats not a murder thats a lesson charged sub-division.
1 Paragraph A. We should all learn this.
If you catch a body under emotional disturbance.
That does not constitute murder. So you gotta chance.
Cause it constitutes a medicating circumstance.
Temporary insanity if your lawyer is in order.

You could have a murder charge reduced to a man-slaughter.
Cop out to a dime 15 years shorter.
Or you could end up with a quarter. To life.[Hook]
Life Liiiife.
Life Liiiiiife.
Liiife Liiiiiiife.
Liiife Liiiiiiife.x2Verse 2: Papoose
You just a pawn. I ain't talking about where you sell your jewelery.
Or a small lake where water be flowing fluidly.
Life is like a game of chess.My next move'll be? Law Library Part 4.
Cause truthfully, a person getting murdered or killed.
Nothing new to me. Kids reaching for guns before they reach puberty.
But whether its me shooting you... or you shooting me.
Its still black on black crime. Where is the unity?
Homicide police swarming through the community.
They locking up you and me.
Cause they only gotta prove 3 things to get a conviction
Follow through with me. Thats the motive the intent and the opportunity.
Motive: That mean you had a reason to kill.
Intent: You intended to kill em did it at will.
Opportunity: This the most important and why? They place you at the scene
if you don't give em a alibi.[Hook]Verse 3: Papoose
A murder charge doesn't mean defeat.
Some say through the technicalities its the easiest thing to beat.
Follow me through the court system I'm leading you out.
They gotta prove you guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.
Its an affirmative defense out blatant.
So if you start explaining. Give a reasonable explanation.
Reasonableness of which is to be determined from the viewpoint of a person
in a defending situation.
Suspended license. Crash you'll make your life shorter.
They could charge you with vehicular man-slaughter.
Criminal negligence they both go aside.
They call it criminally negligent homicide.
I'm streetwise. Thats why I give you advice.
So you don't stay incarcerated for your natural life.
My next chapter is to the politicians.
Article 490. Terrorism.
Law Library.

Shamele Mackie (born December 31, 1978 in Brooklyn, New York), better known by his stage name Papoose, is an American rapper and actor signed to DJ Kayslay's Streetsweepers Entertainment. Raised in the notorious Bedford-Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, he made his first attempts at being a rapper at the young age of 11, and he made his first recorded appearance on Kool G Rap's Roots of Evil album in 1998. Since then he has released 22 mixtapes to huge underground success. In 2008, he issued a statement saying that he and fellow rapper Remy Ma were to be married, but due to her impending jail sentence of potentially up to 25 years, they had changed their plans and intend to marry in prison instead. The prison wedding was called off after he attempted to smuggle a handcuffs key into prison on their wedding day in May 2008. After the incident, Papoose married Remy Ma the next day inside the courtroom right before sentencing and was barred from visiting her for six months.

He was given the name Papoose by his grandmother because of his childhood resemblance to an American Indian child. Inspired by rap legends Rakim, Kool G Rap and Big Daddy Kane, he has been well respected on the underground hip-hop circuit for a long period of time now.

In early 2006, his StreetSweepers crew linked up with Busta Rhymes' Flipmode Inkprint to co-executive produce Papoose's first official album. On August 24, 2006, his official website officially announced that he signed with Jive Records, a deal which, according to his management's official website was worth $1.5 million.

Papoose has recently become known for engaging in charity work, visiting sick children and donated to causes including the Make-A-Wish Foundation and to various Hurricane Katrina charities.

On September 19, 2007 DJ Kay Slay announced that Papoose and himself have parted ways from Jive records. "We have officially gotten our release from Jive fuckin records. It was like a fuckin year of hell... Unfortunately, we almost became victims of A&R hell." On the radio show slay was asked what was next for Papoose, and he said "You know we can't talk about that man." The future of the Papoose's debut album, The Nacirema Dream, is unknown at this time; however, Papoose and Kay Slay are rumored to own the records that were created under Jive.

Papoose is no longer affiliated with Flipmode Squad.
