catchin chain 

Basically a transport from jail to prison. It can also mean that you are about to complete your prison term and be released to free world. The reason inmates refer to being transported to or from prison as catchin chain is because when an inmate is transported to prison or another facility you are loaded onto a bus and are handcuffed and chained by your legs and your waist. You are commonly chained to a fellow inmate and sit next him or her for the duration of your ride.

Yo where’s the homie at? Oh bro he catchin chain early this morning. He getting ready for when they call his name.
