Freedom Of Speech

Ice T

Intro



A yo Ice man. I'm working on this term paper for college. What's the

First Amendment?



Verse 1



Freedom of Speech that's some motherfuckin' bullshit

You say the wrong thing they'll lock your ass up quick

The FCC says "Profanity No Airplay"?

They can suck my dick while I take a shit all day

Think I give a fuck about some silly bitch named Gore?

Yo PMRC here we go raw

Yo Tip, what's the matter? You ain't gettin' no dick?

But you try to lie and lie

And say America's some motherfuckin' apple pie

Yo, you gotta be high to believe that

You're gonna change the world by a sticker on a record sleeve

Cos once you take away my right to speak

Everybody in the world's up shit creek



Verse 3



Let me tell you about down south

Where a motherfucker might as well not even have a mouth

Columbus, Georgia, said they'd lock me up

If I got on the
