"Locked Away" 是由akon, rick ross 和 gilley所創作的歌曲。下面是歌詞：
Verse 1:
Now i'm sittin' here thinkin' back
And rememberin' how things was
My ex used to come to my crib with my nies and call me every name in the book
Tryna ruin my brand new relationship
But i ain't trippin', i ain't stressin', i ain't worried
I ain't worried 'bout a n*a that ain't mine
I ain't worried 'bout a n*a that ain't mine
I ain't worried 'bout tomorrow, 'cause I know i got it locked up, locked up
Chorus:
Locked up, so I can't party, and I ain't see my n*as in a while
So they tryna call me and shit, I don't even have the keys
To my crib, so they can't even hit me up, can't even reach me up
I got everything I need, just can't live like this
I need to get back home
Locked up, locked up
Verse 2:
Yo, we gettin' higher than that Xanax powder, y'all out your mind?
So they don't want to pay your bills and let you get in a position to get robbed, your * just might disappear like 50 Cent on his birthday (she said)
She told me she misses me and she loves me
But I ain't trippin', I ain't stressin', I ain't worried
I ain't worried 'bout a n*a that ain't mine
I ain't worried 'bout a n*a that ain't mine
But my homies gettin' killed off by them drug-addict motherf*ers that look just like them fools in jail
Who cry about all of them stripes and stones, now they walkin with just the tattooed fool- lames (they say)
So we in here for life, they can never find my piece of mind
And if they want to get me, they can try and come and get me but they ain't gon get me (I ain't trippin')
Locked up, so I can't party, and I ain't see my n*as in a while
So they tryna call me and shit, I don't even have the keys
To my crib, so they can't even hit me up, can't even reach me up
I got everything I need, just can't live like this
I need to get back home
Locked up, locked up
Bridge:
So if you call my phone and it goes straight to voicemail (x2)
Just know that you in the dark when you supposed to be with the playa
Got more than money can buy you freedom from the stress and strain (you see)
Just need a chance to clear my name (get back home)
Yeah you locked up but your pride (gotta come down)
The worst thing is your alone while the rest of them hoes go out and around (ain't fair)
Now your sippin on lean with them motherf***ers you sent away (come on)
Locked up with no key, they got your mind away (can't cope)
So I guess we both know what it is (it is)
And I hope you find your peace before you pass away (go home)
Locked up, locked up...
