[Intro: Ricky Harris] You're back now at the jack-off hour This is DJ EZ Dicc On WBALLZ Right now, something new by Snoop Doggy Dogg And this one goes out to the ladies from all the guys A big bow-wow-wow 'Cause we gonna make it a little misty here tonight This is DJ EZ Dicc On the station that slaps you across your fat ass with a fat dick [Verse 1: Nate Dogg] When I met you last night, baby Before you opened up your gap I had respect for you, lady But now, I take it all back 'Cause you gave me all your pussy And you even licked my balls Leave your number on the cabinet And I promise, baby, I'll give you a call Next time I'm feelin' kinda horny You can come on over And I'll break you off And if you can't fuck that day, baby Just lay back and open your mouth 'Cause I have never met a girl That I love in the whole wide world [Verse 2: Kurupt] Well, if Kurupt gave a fuck about a bitch, I'd always be broke I'd never have no motherfuckin' Indo to smoke I gets loc'ed and loony, bitch, you can't do me Do we look like BBD? You hoochie groupie I have no love for hoes That's something that I learned in Tha Pound So how the fuck am I supposed to pay this hoe just to lay this hoe? I know the pussy's mines, I'ma fuck a couple mo' times And then I'm through with it, there's nothin' else to do with it Pass it to the homie, now you hit it 'Cause she ain't nothin' but a bitch to me And y'all know, that bitches ain't shit to me I gives a fuck, why don't y'all pay attention? Approach her with a different proposition I'm Kurupt, ho, you'll never be my only one, trick-ass bitch! [Hook: Nate Dogg] It ain't no fun if the homies can't have none It ain't no fun if the homies can't have none It ain't no fun if the homies can't have none It ain't no fun if the homies can't have none [Verse 3: Snoop Dogg] Guess who's back in the motherfuckin' house? With a fat dick for your motherfuckin' mouth Hoes recognize, niggas do too 'Cause when bitches get scandalous and pull a voodoo What you gon' do? You really don't know So I'd advise you not to trust that ho Silly of me to fall in love with a bitch Knowin' damn well I'm too caught up with my grip Now, as the sun rotates and my game grows bigger How many bitches wanna fuck this nigga named Snoop? Doggy, I'm all the above I'm too swift on my toes to get caught up with you hoes But see, it ain't no fun If my homies can't get a taste of it 'Cause you know I don't love 'em [Verse 4: Warren G] Woo! Hey, now you know Inhale, exhale with my flow One for the money, two for the bitches Three to get ready, and four to hit the switches In my Chevy, '64—red, to be exact With bitches on my side and bitches on my back So back up, bitch, because I'm strugglin' Just get on your knees and then start jugglin' These motherfuckin' nuts in your mouth It's me, Warren G, the nigga with the clout [Hook: Nate Dogg] It ain't no fun if the homies can't have none It ain't no fun if the homies can't have none It ain't no fun if the homies can't have none It ain't no fun if the homies can't have none

[Produced by Warren G] [Intro] Regulators. We regulate any stealin' of his property. We’re damn good too. But you can’t be any geek off the street. You gotta be handy with the steel, if you know what I mean. Earn your keep. Regulators, mount up! [Verse 1: Warren G & Nate Dogg] It was a clear black night, a clear white moon Warren G was on the streets tryin' to consume Some skirts for the eve so I can get some funk Rollin' in my ride, chillin' all alone Just hit the east side of the LBC On a mission tryna find Mr. Warren G Seen a car full of girls, ain't no need to tweak All you skirts know what's up with 213 So, I hooks a left on 21 and Lewis Some brothers shootin' dice, so I said "Let's do this!" I jumped out the ride and said "What's up?" Some brothers pulled some gats, so I said "I'm stuck!" Since these girls peepin' me I'ma glide and swerve These hookers lookin' so hard they straight hit the curb Onto bigger, better things than some horny tricks I see my homie and some suckas all in his mix [Verse 2: Warren G & Nate Dogg] I'm gettin' jacked, I'm breakin' myself I can't believe they takin' Warren's wealth They took my rings, they took my Rolex I looked at the brothers, said "Damn, what's next?" They got my homie hemmed up and they all around Can't none of them see him if they goin' straight pound-for-pound They wanna come up real quick before they start to clown I best pull out my strap and lay them bustas down They got guns to my head, I think I'm goin' down I can't believe it's happenin' in my own town If I had wings I would fly, let me contemplate I glanced in the cut and I see my homie Nate Sixteen in the clip and one in the hole Nate Dogg is about to make some bodies turn cold Now they droppin' and yellin', it's a tad bit late Nate Dogg and Warren G had to regulate [Interlude] [Verse 3: Nate Dogg & Warren G] I laid all them bustas down, I let my gat explode Now I'm switchin' my mind back into freak mode If you want skirts, sit back and observe I just left a gang of hoes over there on the curb Now, Nate got the freaks and that's a known fact Before I got jacked I was on the same track Back up, back up, 'cause it's on N-A-T-E and me, the Warren to the G Just like I thought, they were in the same spot In need of some desperate help But Nate Dogg and the G child Were in need of somethin' else One of them dames was sexy as hell I said, "Ooh, I like your size!" She said, "My car's broke down and you seem real nice Would you let me ride?" I got a car full of girls and it's goin' real swell The next stop is the Eastside Motel [Interlude] [Outro: Warren G & Nate Dogg] I'm tweaking into a whole new era G-funk, step to this, I dare ya Funk on a whole new level The rhythm is the bass and the bass is the treble Chords, strings, we brings melody, G-funk Where rhythm is life and life is rhythm If you know like I know, you don't wanna step to this It's the G-funk era, funked out with a gangsta twist If you smoke like I smoke, then you're high like every day And if yo' ass is a busta, 213 will regulate

[Couplet 1 : Kool Shen] Tout a débuté un matin quand à dix heures dix Je fus tiré du lit par l'emmerdeur de service Mon voisin du dessus, en bon fan d'Elvis Passe ses week-ends à foutre à fond De lives de Memphis Le pire, c'est que je n'ai quasiment pas dormi de la nuit Sache qu'hier au soir, je suis sorti, mec Jusqu'à six heures du mat Tu peux comprendre ça? Ça ne me fait pas plus de quatre heures de sommeil, exact! Je vais encore passer la journée la tête dans les vapes En plus, j'ai des rendez-vous importants, des interviews Ça risque d'être chaud, je suis de mauvaise humeur je l'avoue Mais j'assume. Je contrôle D'ailleurs, je suis déjà au volant de ma caisse Direction les Abbesses Où j'ai rendez-vous avec L'homme que l'on nomme Joey, Joey Starr Mais j'ai pas fait 500 mètres que les keufs m'arrêtent Et me prient de me mettre sur le coté afin de me soumettre À un contrôle d'identité, simple formalité Quand on a ses papiers Mais voilà, là, je les avais pas sur moi J'ai donc été invité au commissariat, où là Ils m'ont mis la fièvre pendant, pendant des heures [Refrain 1] Mais ils m'ont mis la fièvre Pendant des heures, et ils m'ont mis la fièvre pendant des heures [Coulet 2 : JoeyStarr] Putain, trois heures maintenant que je l'attends Marre de faire la borne kilométrique comme trop souvent Le revoyant, me précisant, en insistant Qu'il me faut arriver dans les temps pour un truc important Quand apparaît devant moi une biatch C'est mal barré pour que je reste planté là C'est mal barré, faut que je me décide et fasse mon choix Temps de réaction: très net, c'est net J'ai plus qu'une seule idée en tête : faut que je la serre! Avant que cela ne me manque, il faut qu'on fasse la paire Mais il faut que je tempère mon excitation Car j'ai déjà la fièvre à la vue de ce canon Donc sous hypnose, trop contemplatif, je n'ose Non, non, non, laissez-moi un peu de temps, c'est pas le bon moment ! Je sais, j'ai pas la journée mais je peux prendre tout mon temps Tant il lui plaît que je lui fasse du rentre-dedans Cette femme qui s'ondule, moi ça j'aime, tant pis pour Kool Shen Je la lâche pas, non, j'enchaîne, comme se le doit l'orfèvre Jamais, jamais d'un coup deux lièvres Alors, pendant des heures [Refrain 2] Mais elle m'a mis la fièvre Pendant des heures, et elle m'a mis la fièvre pendant des heures [Couplet 3 : Kool Shen] Oh, mais ils m'ont mis la fièvre, pendant des heures Je suis resté assis sur un banc, contre le radiateur J'avais pourtant des choses à faire J'avais beau leur répéter, mais y'avait rien à faire C'était définitivement pas mon jour : Déjà le rock au réveil, j'étais pas vraiment pour Y'a des jours comme ça où tout ne va pas pour le mieux Y'a des jours où tout part en couille, tout coule [Couplet 4 : JoeyStarr] Parle pour toi, neshè, car pour moi ce fut terrible J'ai passé la journée avec une meuf terrible ! Une biatch de magazine Beaucoup plus bonne que la plus bonne de tes copines ! Donc, je te laisse imaginer la suite Je te fais pas de dessin, ça risque d'être censuré dans le clip Mais bon, il n'y eut pas de répit, pas de trêve Pendant des heures et des heures [Refrain 3] (x3) Je lui ai mis la fièvre, pendant des heures Je lui ai mis la fièvre pendant des heures Je lui ai mis la fièvre

[Interlude: Jay-Z] Turn the music up, turn me down Guru, let's go get 'em again This time it's for the money, my nigga Brooklyn, stand up [Verse 1: Jay-Z] There's never been a nigga this good for this long This hood or this pop, this hot or this strong With so many different flows, this one's for this song The next one I switch up, this one will get bit up These fucks, too lazy to make up shit, they crazy They don't, paint pictures, they just, trace me You know what? Soon they forget where they plucked Their whole style from then try to reverse the outcome I'm like, "TAA!" I'm not a biter, I'm a writer for myself and others I say a B.I.G. verse, I'm only biggin' up my brother Biggin' up my borough, I'm big enough to do it I'm that thorough, plus I know my own flow is foolish So them rings and things you sing about, bring 'em out It's hard to yell when the barrel's in your mouth I'm in, new sneakers, dual-seaters, few divas What more can I tell you? Let me spell it for you: W-I, double-L, I-E Nobody truer than H-O-V And I'm back for more, New York's ambassador Prime Minister, back to finish my business up [Chorus: Hum-V] What more can I say? What more can I do? I gave this up to you I know this much is true, true, true My love [Break: Jay-Z] What more can I say to you? You heard it all [Verse 2: Jay-Z] You already know what I'm about: flyin' birds down south Movin' wet off the step, purple rain in a drought Stuntin' on hoes, brushin' off my shirt But ain't nothin' on my clothes 'cept my chain, my name Young H-O, pitch the yay faithful Even if they patrol, I make payroll Benz paid for, friends they roll Private jets down to Turks and Caicos Cris' caseloads, I don't give a shit Nigga, one life to live, I can't let a day go By without me bein' fly, fresh to death Head to toe till the day I rest And I don't wear jerseys, I'm 30-plus Give me a crisp pair of jeans, nigga, button-ups S. Dots on my feet make my cipher complete What more can I say? Guru, play the beat [Break: Jay-Z (Hum-V)] My nigga, hahahaha, woo! We gon' let this ride into the hook - I'ma snap my fingers on this one What more can I say to you? - Get my grown man on Let's go! (What more can I say?) [Verse 3: Jay-Z] Now you know your ass is Willie when they got you in the mag For like half a billy and your ass ain't lily-White That mean that shit you write must be illy Either that or your flow is silly, it's both I don't mean to boast, but damn, if I don't brag Them crackers gon' act like I ain't on they ass The Martha Stewart that's far from Jewish Far from a Harvard student, just had the balls to do it And no I'm not through with it In fact, I'm just previewin' it This ain't the show, I'm just EQin' it One-two and I won't stop abusin' it To groupie girls: stop false accusin' it Back to the music, the Maybach roof is translucent Niggas got a problem, Houston! What up B, they can't shut up me Shut down I, not even P.E., I'ma ride God forgive me for my brash delivery But I remember vividly what these streets did to me So picture me lettin' these clowns nitpick at me Paint me like a pickany I will literally kiss TT in the forehead Tell her, "Please forgive me," then squeeze into your forehead I'm not the one to score points off, in fact I got a joint that'll knock your points off Young Hova the God, nigga, blast for me I'm at the Trump International, ask for me I ain't never scared, I'm everywhere, you ain't never there And nigga, why would I ever care? Pound for pound, I'm the best to ever come around here Excludin' nobody, look what I embody: The soul of a hustler, I really ran the street A CEO's mind, that marketin' plan was me And no, I ain't get shot up a whole bunch of times Or make up shit in a whole bunch of lines And I ain't animated like, say, a Busta Rhymes But the real shit you get when you bust down my lines Add that to the fact I went plat' a bunch of times Times that by my influence on pop culture I'm supposed to be number one on everybody list We'll see what happens when I no longer exist Fuck this man [Outro: Hum-V] What more can I say?

[Intro] Look, if you had one shot or one opportunity To seize everything you ever wanted in one moment Would you capture it, or just let it slip? Yo [Verse 1] His palms are sweaty, knees weak, arms are heavy There's vomit on his sweater already, mom's spaghetti He's nervous, but on the surface he looks calm and ready To drop bombs, but he keeps on forgetting What he wrote down, the whole crowd goes so loud He opens his mouth, but the words won't come out He's choking, how? Everybody's joking now The clock's run out, time's up, over, blaow Snap back to reality, ope there goes gravity, ope There goes Rabbit, he choked, he's so mad but he won't Give up that easy, no, he won't have it, he knows His whole back's to these ropes, it don't matter, he's dope He knows that but he's broke, he's so stagnant, he knows When he goes back to this mobile home, that's when it's Back to the lab again, yo, this old rhapsody Better go capture this moment and hope it don't pass him, and [Chorus] You better lose yourself in the music The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go) You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo You better lose yourself in the music The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go) You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo You better… [Verse 2] His soul's escaping through this hole that is gaping This world is mine for the taking, make me king As we move toward a New World Order A normal life is boring; but superstardom's Close to post-mortem, it only grows harder Homie grows hotter, he blows, it's all over These hoes is all on him, coast-to-coast shows He's known as the Globetrotter, lonely roads God only knows, he's grown farther from home, he's no father He goes home and barely knows his own daughter But hold your nose, 'cause here goes the cold water These hoes don't want him no more, he's cold product They moved on to the next schmoe who flows He nose-dove and sold nada, and so the soap opera Is told, it unfolds, I suppose it's old, partner But the beat goes on, da-da-dom, da-dom, dah-dah, dah-dah [Chorus] You better lose yourself in the music The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go) You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo You better lose yourself in the music The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go) You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo You better… [Verse 3] No more games, I'ma change what you call rage Tear this motherfuckin' roof off like two dogs caged I was playin' in the beginning, the mood all changed I've been chewed up and spit out and booed off stage But I kept rhymin' and stepped right in the next cypher Best believe somebody's payin' the Pied Piper All the pain inside amplified by the Fact that I can't get by with my nine-to- Five and I can't provide the right type of life for my family 'Cause man, these goddamn food stamps don't buy diapers And there's no movie, there's no Mekhi Phifer, this is my life And these times are so hard, and it's gettin' even harder Tryna feed and water my seed, plus teeter-totter Caught up between bein' a father and a prima donna Baby mama drama, screamin' on her, too much for me to wanna Stay in one spot, another day of monotony's Gotten me to the point I'm like a snail, I've got To formulate a plot or end up in jail or shot Success is my only motherfuckin' option, failure's not Mom, I love you, but this trailer's got To go; I cannot grow old in Salem's Lot So here I go, it's my shot, feet, fail me not This may be the only opportunity that I got [Chorus] You better lose yourself in the music The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go) You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo You better lose yourself in the music The moment, you own it, you better never let it go (Go) You only get one shot, do not miss your chance to blow This opportunity comes once in a lifetime, yo You better… [Outro] You can do anything you set your mind to, man

Come on dude, I should slap you fool Spit what, I'll leave your lips numb the friction is so sick son Your chin'll disappear from attrition Rhythmic high intensity conflict is a given it Especially if Canibus is doin the rippin You snipping to clipping in the C-section incisions With scissors with rubber ergonomic grip for the fingers Liars for hire with a defense like Geoffrey Fieger And rock it like thugs who work for Mic Club Hyped up, tear the mic up my man And move forward as expeditiously as I can Ain't nobody in the world like Bis The nitrous with radio telescopic devices, same type shit Facially hairless, a gregarious Jamaican-American Lyricist turned microphone terrorist Airlift me off the front line to my therapist So I can sit in his chair and tell him how much I care for this This is what they want, this is what they love To engage in the exchange of ideas and drugs While I'm in the cut satellite tracking you rappers With months of food rations beneath the Catacombs of Paris Theories of super-lattice and super-savage Atomic attack tachometers flash when I punch the gas bitch The farther I climb the harder I rhyme You gotta face death and survive to feel more alive The quality of life is an illusion of the mind Super-imposed lines look two-dimensional from the side According to the science of the C-section applied If they say I'm the best after I die - don't be surprised I C section the sky let my energy rise At the moment of truth I know it's definitely my time As my soul is eased through the sieve I'll be grateful because I lived The only drawback is that I didn't have kids To C-section my beautiful wiz And see the resemblance of my face in hers or his Who knows what the future will bring, it stresses me to think This mic meant everything now it doesn't seem important Now I gotta follow orders, defend borders From Maine to California, Seattle to Florida If I could talk to the Oracle I know what I'd ask her I'd speak to her about my passions As the hourglasses turn and my life passes I'll just wait 'til I see the Master and I'll just ask him Forget it, that's the future, this is the present A message to anybody listening to the C section [Chorus] This is the C Section, ripping and wrecking The lyrical legend sending y'all to Mic Club heaven This is the C Section A lyrical legend sending y'all to Mic Club heaven This is the C Section, ripping and wrecking The lyrical legend sending y'all to Mic Club heaven This is the C Section A lyrical legend sending y'all to Mic Club heaven

I'm tired of bein' poor and, even worse, I'm black My stomach hurts so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch Cops give a damn about a negro Pull the trigger, kill a nigga, he's a hero "Give the crack to the kids, who the hell cares?

It's war on the streets and the war in the Middle East (Ooh, yeah) Instead of war on poverty They got a war on drugs so the police can bother me And I ain't never did a crime I ain't have to do But now I'm back with the facts, givin' it back to you (Ooh) Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up Crack you up and pimp-smack you up You gotta learn to hold your own They get jealous when they see you with your mobile phone But tell the cops they can't touch this I don't trust this, when they try to rush, I bust this That's the sound of my tool, you say it ain't cool My mama didn't raise no fool (Oh) And as long as I stay black, I gotta stay strapped And I never get to lay back 'Cause I always got to worry 'bout the payback Some buck that I roughed up way back Comin' back after all these years "Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat," that's the way it is [Chorus: Talent & 2Pac] (Uh) That's just the way it is (Just the way it is, yeah, yeah, yeah) Things'll never be the same (Yeah) That's just the way it is (The way it is) Aww, yeah (Some things will never change, oh my) (I'm tryna make a change) (You're my brother, you're my sister, yeah) That's just the way it is (The way it is, the way it is) Things'll never be the same (You're my brother, you're my sister) That's just the way it is, aww, yeah Some things'll never change

[Verse 1: Canibus] Executive Order 11002 The reason you know me but I don't know you You really wanna know what drama is let me show you But keep in mind this is just one point of view Drama is livin' in a 3rd world country Fucked up and hungry without no money Drama is trying to adjust to circumstance Missing more than one leg or more than one hand Drama is being chased off ya' land By a funny looking man in a suit that works for the bank Drama is what's happening to the ecosystem And the animals it feeds, from the damage to trees To rainforests that get destroyed annually Damn is it just me who cares about the air that we breathe? Drama is the nuclear threat that we live with One bomb and everybody's dead that's some sick shit Drama is HIV statistics The infected person that you might have sex with, life goes on But drama is living with the afterthought that maybe you could have prevented it Drama is imminent, it comes in other forms The sick pedophiles who support child porn Never mind the offenders Think about what the victims go through and what the fuck they gotta' live wit Drama is the prison population Some belong there but also some belong on probation Drama is not being able to change one thing Cause the system you live in says you ain't shit Drama is corporate scandal Drama is a handful of CEO's playin' you for a damn fool Drama is being a millionaire But gotta' recoup half the budget from your 10 percent share Drama is having one too many women Even though you always need a spare one to swim in Drama is dealing with your jealous impulses Learning how to hold it all in with no emotion Drama is blind devotion Drama is having your deepest secrets exposed in the open Drama is having your heart broken And the person who broke it doesn't even motherfucking notice Drama is trying to carry a burden all by yourself on your shoulders and it don't exist Drama is being falsely accused, Drama is the latest news Drama is what gives people clues Drama is a tool you can use to distract ya' enemy so they never improve Drama is the fear of devils and the fear of God Drama is a long and hard Tech support desk job Drama is the life of an up-and-coming actor or rapper Or athlete or building contractor Drama is a rookie cop calling for backup The 3 strike perpetrator that's getting tatted up Drama is the spin zone of a politician Drama is K-Solo when he said the rhyme did it Drama is the struggle of change Drama is inevitable there is no other way Drama is what drains life force out of you Drama is negative but drama can empower you Drama is love, Drama is pain Drama exists in everything everyday Drama is the Yin, Drama is the Yang Drama is the innate nature of man Drama contracts, Drama expands Drama is what I am [Interlude: Canibus] Drama! Drama! [Verse 2: Luminati] Pull up a chair to the aristocracy of commonwealth prophecy The legacy of generation three isosceles Logical geometry, illogical melodies Integrated with memories that mix melodically Beyond the insight of what a modern-day monkey sees Get chopped in three for pathetic hypocrisy False bureaucracy breeds poetic monopolies Chateau de Trevano is my property An addict for drama and dramatic oddities Addicted to bottles of sticky green botany In a reflection of the split seas you see me in 3D Tripping off three hits of E Half-a-tablet for you 2-and-a-half for me A rappers speech is slurred for eternal depravity Naturally ignore gravity project astrally Ascend gradually till the stratosphere passes me Earth's actually esoterically absent to me Take a crack at me with blurred clarity - battle me Spiders crawl outta the skin the six headed beast Evil beings that wrestle with demons in the deep Useless to eat 200 pounds of rotten meat Shrink heads drink black milk collect black teeth Luminati tribal chief wear it as trophy piece My women are ornamented with a blood soaked wreath Like Christmas minus Christ plus the heat The Ascended Master, leader of all immortal freaks Voodoo curse on your last and future release Unleash the worst plague put the world under siege Till your name is unheard and your face is unseen Till your just a nightmare of an accursed dream Tell the supreme to curse your whole team and your unborn seed Poison your queen like the Furher's last week In the blood filled streets you're a leech Less than a man a poverty stricken thief with grief At night you speak to Satan before you go to sleep Worshiping the flesh like poor pagan priests Your future's oblique I command your heart to seize its beat Thou shall inherit disease and defeat!

Then a fat, red pimp got out of his ride It was perfectly clear he was from the North Side "Yo Santa what's up? Did you bring me some chronic?" And Tanqueray gin I can mix with my tonic? He said "ho, ho, ho" and opened his sack It was stuffed full of indo, had to take a step back "Is this for the Dogg? Did you bring this for me? To blaze with my hoes and my closest homies?" He just nodded his head, his eyes about shut It was then that I knew that Saint Nick was fucked up He ate all my motherfuckin' cookies I left on the plate Then he went to the fridge And he ate, and he ate, and that fat motherfucka ate And when he was done When the cupboard was bare He packed his shit up and got outta there "Good night Doggy Dogg!" he said from the sky "Merry Christmas to all you motherfuckers And to all a good high" Merry Christmas From the Dogg Pound And everybody have a happy new year, ho ho ho (laughter) (Why you laugh, dog?)

A blast of light, that's what he seein' if you blast him right Hit him in his face and hear them close the casket tight 'Cause it's like it ain't nothin' but endin' it to a nigga Street sweeper like ahhhh, sendin it to a nigga When you in the house you'll play by house rules Two words you'll never hear again are house lose And that's house choose it ain't gonna be that, 'cause I can't see that Ready to get up in this nigga's ass real good, so where the weed at?

Yeah, yeah Ayo, put the Grants over there in the safe You know what I'm sayin'? ‘Cause we spendin' these Jacksons The Washingtons go to wifey, you know how that go I'm sayin' that's what this is all about, right? Clothes, bankrolls, and hoes You know what I'm sayin'? Yo, then what, man, what?! [Verse 1: AZ] Visualizin' the realism of life in actuality Fuck who's the baddest, a person's status depends on salary And my mentality is money-orientated I'm destined to live the dream for all my peeps who never made it ‘Cause yeah, we were beginners in the hood as Five Percenters But somethin' must've got in us, ‘cause all of us turned to sinners Now some restin' in peace and some are sittin' in San Quentin Others, such as myself, are tryin' to carry on tradition Keepin' this Schweppervescent street ghetto essence inside us 'Cause it provides us with the proper insight to guide us Even though we know, somehow we all gotta go But as long as we leavin' thievin' We'll be leavin' with some kind of dough So, until that day we expire and turn to vapors Me and my capers will be somewhere stackin' plenty papers Keepin' it real, packin' steel, gettin' high ‘Cause life's a bitch and then you die [Chorus: AZ] Life's a bitch and then you die, that's why we get high ‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go Life's a bitch and then you die, that's why we puff lye ‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go Life's a bitch and then you die, that's why we get high ‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go Life's a bitch and then you die, that's why we puff lye [Verse 2: Nas] I woke up early on my born day; I'm 20, it's a blessin' The essence of adolescence leaves my body, now I'm fresh and My physical frame is celebrated ‘cause I made it One quarter through life, some godly-like thing created Got rhymes 365 days annual, plus some Load up the mic and bust one, cuss while I pus from My skull, ‘cause it's pain in my brain vein, money maintain Don't go against the grain, simple and plain When I was young at this I used to do my thing hard Robbin' foreigners, take they wallets, they jewels and rip they green cards Dipped to the projects, flashin' my quick cash And got my first piece of ass, smokin' blunts with hash Now it's all about cash in abundance Niggas I used to run with is rich or doin' years in the hundreds I switched my motto; instead of sayin', "Fuck tomorrow!" That buck that bought a bottle could've struck the lotto Once I stood on the block, loose cracks produce stacks I cooked up and cut small pieces to get my loot back Time is illmatic, keep static like wool fabric Pack a 4-matic to crack your whole cabbage [Chorus: AZ] Life's a bitch and then you die, that's why we get high ‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go Life's a bitch and then you die, that's why we puff lye ‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go Life's a bitch and then you die, that's why we get high ‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go Life's a bitch and then you die, that's why we puff lye ‘Cause you never know when you're gonna go Life's a bitch and then you die [Trumpet Outro: Olu Dara]

[Produced by Dr. Dre & DJ Yella] [Intro: The D.O.C., Dr. Dre, and Ice Cube] Right about now, N.W.A court is in full effect Judge Dre presiding In the case of N.W.A versus the Police Department Prosecuting attorneys are MC Ren, Ice Cube And Eazy-motherfucking-E Order, order, order! Ice Cube, take the motherfucking stand Do you swear to tell the truth, the whole truth And nothing but the truth so help your black ass? You goddamn right Well, won't you tell everybody what the fuck you gotta say? [Verse 1: Ice Cube] Fuck the police comin' straight from the underground A young nigga got it bad 'cause I'm brown And not the other color, so police think They have the authority to kill a minority Fuck that shit, 'cause I ain't the one For a punk motherfucker with a badge and a gun To be beating on and thrown in jail We can go toe-to-toe in the middle of a cell Fuckin' with me 'cause I'm a teenager With a little bit of gold and a pager Searchin' my car, lookin' for the product Thinkin' every nigga is sellin' narcotics You'd rather see me in the pen Than me and Lorenzo rollin' in a Benz-o Beat a police out of shape And when I'm finished, bring the yellow tape To tape off the scene of the slaughter Still getting swole off bread and water I don't know if they fags or what Search a nigga down and grabbing his nuts And on the other hand, without a gun, they can't get none But don't let it be a black and a white one 'Cause they'll slam ya down to the street top Black police showing out for the white cop Ice Cube will swarm On any motherfucker in a blue uniform Just 'cause I'm from the CPT Punk police are afraid of me, huh A young nigga on the warpath And when I'm finished, it's gonna be a bloodbath Of cops dying in L.A.  Yo, Dre, I got something to say [Chorus] Fuck the police, fuck— fuck— Fuck the police, fuck— fuck— Fuck the police, fuck the— fuck the— Fuck the police (Example of scene one) [Skit 1: Cop, MC Ren, & Dr. Dre] Pull your goddamn ass over right now! Aw shit, now what the fuck you pullin' me over for? 'Cause I feel like it! Just sit your ass on the curb and shut the fuck up! Man, fuck this shit Alright, smart-ass, I'm taking your black ass to jail! MC Ren, will you please give your testimony To the jury about this fucked up incident? [Verse 2: MC Ren] Fuck the police and Ren said it with authority Because the niggas on the street is a majority A gang is with whoever I'm steppin' And the motherfuckin' weapon is kept in A stash spot for the so-called law Wishing Ren was a nigga that they never saw Lights start flashing behind me But they're scared of a nigga, so they mace me to blind me But that shit don't work, I just laugh Because it gives them a hint not to step in my path For police, I'm saying, "Fuck you, punk!" Reading my rights and shit, it's all junk Pulling out a silly club, so you stand With a fake-ass badge and a gun in your hand But take off the gun so you can see what's up And we'll go at it, punk, and I'ma fuck you up Make you think I'ma kick your ass But drop your gat, and Ren's gonna blast I'm sneaky as fuck when it comes to crime But I'ma smoke 'em now and not next time Smoke any motherfucker that sweats me Or any asshole that threatens me I'm a sniper with a hell of a scope Takin' out a cop or two, they can't cope with me The motherfuckin' villain that's mad With potential to get bad as fuck So I'ma turn it around Put in my clip, yo, and this is the sound (*Gunshots*) Yeah, somethin' like that But it all depends on the size of the gat Takin' out a police would make my day But a nigga like Ren don't give a fuck to say [Chorus] Fuck the police, fuck the— fuck the— Fuck the police, fuck the— fuck the— Fuck the police, fuck the— fuck— Fuck the police [Skit 2: Cop, Eazy-E, and Dr. Dre] *Knocking* Yeah, man, what you need? Police, open now (Aww, shit) We have a warrant for Eazy-E's arrest (*Battering ram*) Get down and put your hands right where I can see 'em! (Move, motherfucker, move now!) What the fuck did I do, man? What did I do? Just shut the fuck up and get your motherfucking ass on the floor! (You heard the man, shut the fuck up!) But I didn't do shit Man, just shut the fuck up! Eazy-E, won't you step up to the stand And tell the jury how you feel about this bullshit? [Verse 3: Eazy-E & MC Ren] I'm tired of the motherfuckin' jackin' Sweating my gang, while I'm chillin' in the shack, and Shining the light in my face, and for what? Maybe it's because I kick so much butt I kick ass, or maybe 'cause I blast On a stupid ass nigga when I'm playing with the trigger Of an Uzi or an AK 'Cause the police always got somethin' stupid to say They put out my picture with silence 'Cause my identity by itself causes violence The E with the criminal behavior Yeah, I'm a gangsta, but still, I got flavor Without a gun and a badge, what do you got? A sucker in a uniform waiting to get shot By me or another nigga And with a gat, it don't matter if he's smaller or bigger (Size don't mean shit, he's from the old school, fool) And as you all know, E's here to rule Whenever I'm rollin', keep lookin' in the mirror And ears on cue, yo, so I can hear a Dumb motherfucker with a gun And if I'm rollin' off the eight, he'll be the one That I take out, and then get away While I'm driving off laughing, this is what I'll say [Chorus] Fuck the police, fuck the— fuck the— Fuck the police, fuck— Fuck the police, fuck— fuck— Fuck the police (The verdict) [Skit 3: Dr. Dre, Cop] The jury has found you guilty of being a redneck, white bread, chicken shit motherfucker Wait, that's a lie! That's a goddamn lie! Get him out of here! (I want justice!) Get him the fuck out my face! (I want justice!) Out, right now! Fuck you, you black motherfuckers! [Chorus] Fuck the police Fuck the police Fuck the police

[Produced by DJ Pooh] [Intro] Break 'em Yeah Yeah Yeah Uh [Verse 1] Just wakin' up in the morning, gotta thank God I don't know, but today seems kinda odd No barking from the dog, no smog And Momma cooked a breakfast with no hog I got my grub on, but didn't pig out Finally got a call from a girl I wanna dig out Hooked it up for later as I hit the door Thinkin', "Will I live another twenty-four?" I gotta go 'cause I got me a drop-top And if I hit the switch, I can make the ass drop Had to stop at a red light Lookin' in my mirror and not a jacker in sight And everything is alright I got a beep from Kim, and she can fuck all night Called up the homies and I'm askin' y'all "Which park are y'all playin' basketball?" Get me on the court and I'm trouble Last week, fucked around and got a triple double Freakin' niggas every way, like MJ I can't believe today was a good day [Verse 2] Drove to the pad and hit the showers Didn't even get no static from the cowards 'Cause just yesterday them fools tried to blast me Saw the police and they rolled right past me No flexin', didn't even look in a nigga's direction As I ran the intersection Went to Short Dog's house, they was watchin' Yo! MTV Raps What's the haps on the craps? Shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em up, shake 'em Roll 'em in a circle of niggas And watch me break 'em with the 7, 7-11, 7-11 7, even back door Little Joe I picked up the cash flow Then we played bones, and I'm yellin': "Domino!" Plus nobody I know got killed in South Central LA Today was a good day [Verse 3] Left my nigga's house paid Picked up a girl been tryna fuck since the 12th grade It's ironic, I had the brew, she had the chronic The Lakers beat the Supersonics I felt on the big fat fanny Pulled out the jammy and killed the punani And my dick runs deep, so deep So deep put her ass to sleep Woke her up around one She didn't hesitate to call Ice Cube the top gun Drove her to the pad and I'm coastin' Took another sip of the potion, hit the three-wheel motion I was glad everything had worked out Dropped her ass off and then chirped out Today was like one of those fly dreams Didn't even see a berry flashin' those high beams No helicopter lookin' for a murder Two in the morning, got the Fatburger Even saw the lights of the Goodyear Blimp And it read "Ice Cube's a Pimp" (Yeah) Drunk as hell, but no throwin' up Halfway home and my pager still blowin' up Today I didn't even have to use my AK I gotta say, it was a good day [Outro] Hey, wait, wait a minute! Pooh, stop this shit! What the fuck am I thinkin' about?

[Produced by Kanye West] [Music Video - Intro] Last October Grammy-nominated producer KANYE WEST was in a nearly fatal car accident. His jaw was fractured in nearly three places. Two weeks later he recorded this song with his mouth still wired shut... so the world could feel his pain! [Intro] Yo, Gee, they can't stop me from rappin', can they? Can they, Hop? [Chorus: Chaka Khan] Through the fire, to the limit, to the wall For a chance to be with you, I'd gladly risk it all Through the fire, through whatever, come what may For a chance at loving you, I'd take it all the way Right down to the wire, even through the fire [Over Chorus] I spit it through the wire, man There's too much stuff on my heart right now, man I'd gladly risk it all right now It's a life-or-death situation, man Y'all, y'all don't really understand how I feel right now, man It's your boy, Kanye to the… Chi-Town, what's goin' on? Uh-huh, yeah, yeah [Verse 1] I drink a Boost for breakfast, an Ensure for dessert Somebody ordered pancakes, I just sip the sizzurp That right there could drive a sane man berserk Not to worry, Mr. H-to-the-Izzo's back to wizzerk How do you console my mom or give her light support Tellin' her her son's on life support? And just imagine how my girl feel On the plane scared as hell that her guy look like Emmett Till She was with me before the deal, she'd been tryna be mine She a Delta, so she'd been throwin' that Dynasty sign No use in me tryna be lyin', I been tryna be signed Tryin' to be a millionaire, how I used two lifelines In the same hospital where Biggie Smalls died The doctor said I had blood clots, but I ain't Jamaican, man Story on MTV and I ain't tryna make a band I swear, this right here, history in the makin', man [Chorus: Chaka Khan] Through the fire, to the limit, to the wall For a chance to be with you, I'd gladly risk it all Through the fire, through whatever, come what may For a chance at loving you, I'd take it all the way Right down to the wire, even through the fire [Over Chorus] I really apologize for everything right now If it's unclear at all, man They got my mouth wired shut For like… I dunno, the doctor said like six weeks Y'know, he had, I had reconstructive surgery on my jaw I looked in the mirror And half my jaw was in the back of my mouth, man I couldn't believe it But I'm still here for y'all right now, man This what I got to say right here, dawg Yeah, turn me up, yeah, uh [Verse 2] What if somebody from the Chi' that was ill got a deal On the hottest rap label around? But he wasn't talkin' 'bout coke and birds It was more like spoken word, 'cept he's really puttin' it down? And he explained the story 'bout how Blacks came from glory And what we need to do in the game Good dude, bad night, right place, wrong time In the blink of a eye, his whole life changed If you could feel how my face felt You would know how Mase felt (Mason Betha!) Thank God I ain't too cool for the safe belt I swear to God, driver two wanna sue I got a lawyer for the case, to keep what's in my safe safe My dawgs couldn't tell if I… I looked like Tom Cruise in Vanilla Sky, it was televised There's been an accident like GEICO They thought I was burnt up like Pepsi did Michael I must got a angel, ‘cause look how death missed his ass Unbreakable, what, you thought they'd call me Mr. Glass? Look back on my life like the Ghost of Christmas Past Toys "R" Us where I used to spend that Christmas cash And I still won't grow up, I'm a grown-ass kid Swear I should be locked up for stupid shit that I did But I'm a champion, so I turned tragedy to triumph Make music that's fire, spit my soul through the wire [Chorus: Chaka Khan] Through the fire, to the limit, to the wall For a chance to be with you, I'd gladly risk it all Through the fire, through whatever, come what may For a chance at loving you, I'd take it all the way Right down to the wire, even through the fire [Over Chorus] Y'know what I'm sayin'? When the doctor told me I had, um That I was gonna have to have a plate in my chin I said, "Dawg, don't you realize I'll never make it on a plane now?" "It's bad enough I got all this jewelry on!" You can't be serious, man

And motherfuckers that say they too black Put 'em overseas, they be begging to come back And say we promote gangs and drugs You wanna sweep a nigga like me up under the rug Kicking shit called street knowledge Why more niggas in the pen than in college?

[Verse 2] Fresh off the plane, I'm off to Baseline Nothing handed out, I'm 'bout to take mine 'Round the same time of that Blueprint 1 And these beats in my pocket was that blueprint for him I'd play my little songs in that old back room He'd bob his head and say "Damn! Oh, that's you?" But by The Black Album, I was blacking out Partyin' S.O.B.'s and we had packed a crowd Big brother got his show up at Madison Square And I'm like "Yeah, yeah, we gon' be there" but Not only did I not get a chance to spit it Carline told me I could buy two tickets I guess big brother was thinkin' a little different And kept little brother at bay, at a distance But everything that I felt was more bogus Only made me more focused, only wrote more potent Only thing I wanna know is why I get looked over I guess I'll understand when I get more older Big brother saw me at the bottom of the totem Now I'm on the top and everybody on the scrotum [Chorus] My big brother was B.I.G.'s brother Used to be Dame and Biggs' brother Who was Hip Hop brother, who was No I.D. friend No I.D. my mentor, now let the story begin, begin Let the story begin If you feel the way I feel why don't you wave your hands? [Verse 3] Have you ever walked in the shadow of a giant? Not only a client, the Presidito, hola, Hovito The game gettin' foul so here's a free throw I was always on the other side of the peephole Then I dropped "Jesus Walks" now I'm on the steeple And we know, "New Jack City"—got to keep my brother But to be number one I'ma beat my brother On that "Diamonds" remix I swore I spazzed Then my big brother came through and kicked my ass Sibling rivalry, only I could see It was the pride in me that was drivin' me At the Grammys I said, "I inspired me" But my big brother who I always tried to be When I kicked a flow it was like pick-and-roll 'Cause even if he gave me the rock, it's give-and-go I guess Beanie's style was more of a slam dunk And my shit was more like a finger roll But I had them singles though And them hoes at the show gonna mingle, yo, heh, y'all know I told Jay I did a song with Coldplay Next thing I know he got a song with Coldplay Back in my mind I'm like, "Damn, no way" Translate, español: "No way, José" Then I went and told Jay Brown Shoulda known that was gon' come back around Shoulda talked to you like a man, shoulda told you first But I told somebody else and that's what made shit worse [Bridge] My big brother was B.I.G.'s brother So here's a few words from ya kid brother If you admire somebody you should go on 'head tell 'em People never get the flowers while they can still smell 'em A idol in my eyes, god of the game Heart of the City, Roc-a-Fella chain Never be the same, never be another Number one, Young Hov, also my big brother [Chorus] My big brother was B.I.G.'s brother Used to be Dame and Biggs' brother Who was Hip Hop brother, who was No I.D. friend No I.D., my mentor, and that's where the story ends [Outro] Toomp killed this shit

She probably get her money in L.A And she did stud, she got big pub, but what was foul She said that the pro-black was goin' out of style She said, "Afrocentricity was of the past" So she got into R&B, hip-house, bass, and jazz Now black music is black music and it's all good I wasn't salty she was with the boys in the hood Cause that was good for her, she was becomin' well-rounded I thought it was dope how she was on that freestyle shit Just havin' fun, not worried about anyone And you could tell by how her titties hung [Chorus] A-yes, yes y'all, and you don't stop To the beat, y'all, and you don't stop A-yes, yes y'all, and you don't stop A-one, two, y'all, and you don't stop A-yes, yes y'all, and you don't stop And to the beat Com gotta be the sure shot A-yes, yes y'all, and you don't stop If you don't check it, mm-mm, bust it, bust it [Verse 3] I might've failed to mention that this chick was creative Once the man got to her, he altered her native Told her if she got an image and a gimmick That she could make money, and she did it like a dummy Now I see her in commercials, she's universal She used to only swing it with the inner-city circle Now she be in the burbs, lookin' rock and dressin' hippie And on some dumb shit when she comes to the city Talkin' bout poppin' Glocks, servin' rocks and hittin' switches Now she's a gangsta rollin' with gangsta bitches Always smokin' blunts and gettin' drunk Tellin' me sad stories, now she only fucks with the funk Stressin' how hardcore and real she is She was really the realest, before she got into showbiz I did her, not just to say that I did it But I'm committed (girl, he's committed) but so many niggas hit it That she's just not the same lettin' all these groupies do her I see niggas slammin' her and takin' her to the sewer But I'ma take her back, hopin' that the shit stop ‘Cause who I'm talkin' about, y'all, is hip-hop [Chorus] To the beat, y'all, and you don't stop A-yes, yes y'all, and you don't stop Mainframe, yo, they gotta be the sure shot A-yes, yes, y'all, and you don't stop To the beat, y'all, and you don't stop A-yes, yes y'all, and you don't stop A-one, two, Com Sense is gonna drop, haha [Bridge] I used to love H.E.R I used to love H.E.R I used to love H.E.R I used to love H.E.R I used to love H.E.R I used to love H.E.R I used to love H.E.R., went and fucked up all the shit, y'all [Outro: The Five Heartbeats sample] You ain't got your woman in check, man?

(Vibes... vibrations) Stakes is high Man, them stakes is high (Aiyo, what about that love?) [Verse 4: Posdnous] Yo, it's about love of cars, love of funds Lovin' to love mad sex, lovin' to love guns Love for opposite, love for fame and wealth Love for the fact of no longer lovin' yourself, kid We livin' in them days of the man-made craze Where every aspect is vivid These brothers no longer talk shit, aiyo, these niggas live it 'Bout to give it to you 24/7 on the microphone Plug One translatin' the zone No offense to a player but, yo, I don't play Nigga, take offense? Fuck it, gotta be that way Jay Dee, Dove, show your love, what you got to say? [Verse 5: Trugoy the Dove] I say G's are makin' figures at a high regard And niggas dyin' for it nowadays ain't odd Investin' in fantasies and not God Welcome to reality, see, times is hard People try to snatch the credit, but can't claim the card Showin' out in videos, sayin' they co-starred See, shit like that'll make your mama cry Better watch the way you spend it 'cause the stakes is high [Hook] Y'all know them stakes is high When you're dealin' with the... (Vibes... vibrations) Stakes is high (Come on) Man, them stakes is high (Check it) [Verse 6: Trugoy the Dove + Posdnous] I think that smilin' in public is against the law (What?!) 'Cause love don't get you through life no more It's who you know, and "How you, son?" And how you gettin' in, and who the man holdin' heat, yo And how was the skins and how high Yo, what up, huh? I heard you caught a body Seem like every man and woman shared a life with John Gotti But they ain't organized! Mixin' crimes with life enzymes Takin' the big scalp route and niggas, no doubt Better than they know their daughters and their sons (Oh, boy) [Verse 7: Posdnous] Yo, people go through pain and still don't gain Positive contact just like my main man Who got others cleanin' up his physical and fluids His mind got congested, he got the nine and blew it Neighborhoods are now hoods 'cause nobody's neighbors Just animals survivin' with that animal behavior Under I who be rhymin' from dark to light sky Experiments where needles and skin connect No wonder where we live is called the projects When them stakes is high You damn sure try to do anythin' to get the piece of the pie Electrify, even die for the cash But at last, you be out even though you wantin' more This issue is closed like an elevator door But soon re-opened once we get to the next floor where the...

[Intro: Jay-Z & Too $hort] Uh-huh That's right It was all good just a week ago Uh-huh-uh, it was all good just a week ago Last week I had everything Uh, uh-huh-uh, had this all good just a week ago I had the money.. had the cars, the bitches Uh-huh, yeah, it was all good just a week ago And the jewelry.. And then my motherfuckin' niggas started snitchin' Uh-huh, uh uh, yo, yo Beatch! [Verse 1: Jay-Z] Growin' up in the hood, just my dog and me We used to hustle in the hood for all to see Problems; I called on him, he called on me We wasn't quite partners, I hit him off my P Let him unlock doors off my keys Yeah, we spoke, much more than cordially Man, he broke bread with me, my business spread swiftly The Feds came to get me, we both fled quickly Wasn't quick enough to jump over the hedges with me Got caught, and that's when our relationship strayed Used to call me from the joint 'til he ran out of change And when he called collect and I heard his name I quickly accepted, but when I reached the phone He's talkin' reckless, I can sense deceit in his tone I said: "Damn, dog! What, nine weeks and you're home?" He said: "Main man, you think shit's sweet 'cause you're home." I just sat, spat no more speech in the phone Them crackers up there bleachin' your dome, you're reachin' I said: "The world don't stop, I got to keep..keep on." From there I sensed the beef was on I ran to the spy store to add some more features on my phone To see if I had bugs and leeches on my phone Can't be too safe, ‘cause niggas is two-faced And they show the other side, when they catch a new case It's on [Chorus: Too $hort + Jay-Z] It was cool when you had hella weed to smoke And you bought a new home where you could keep the folks I don't see how this side of you could be provoked Uh-huh, uh-huh, it was all good just a week ago Funny what seven days can change A stand up nigga, now you sit down to aim Used to have a firm grip, now you dropping names It was all good just a week ago [Verse 2: Jay-Z] Like I put the toast to your head and made you sell We both came in this game, blind as hell I did a little better, had more clientele Told you put away some cheddar, now you cryin' for bail Seventeen and I'm holdin' on to around a mill' I could bail out, blow trial and come around on appeal Had niggas thinkin' I was from uptown for real I had so much hustle, plus I was down to ill Like a Brooklyn nigga, straight out of Brownsville Down and dirty, down to fight to round 30 Freezin' on them corners, still holdin' my crack Lookin' up and down the block, the fuck is the dough at? Came from flat broke to lettin' the dough stack You tell them Feds I said: "I'm never going back" I'm from Marcy, and Marcy don't raise no rats You know the consequences of your acts, you can't be serious [Chorus: Too $hort + Jay-Z] It was cool when you had hella weed to smoke And you bought a new home where you could keep the folks I don't see how this side of you could be provoked Uh-huh, uh-huh, it was all good just a week ago Funny what seven days can change A stand up nigga, now you sit down to aim Used to have a firm grip, now you dropping names It was all good just a week ago [Verse 3: Jay-Z] The lawyer I retained you said you leakin' some things All this after a week in the bing I'm mad at myself, 'cause I didn't spot the weakling I would've bet the house you wouldn't speak a thing Nigga, this was the oath, to the top or broke Even pricked our finger, anything that got between us We supposed to cock the ninas, what happened to that? Instead you copped out to a misdemeanor Fuck it, the same thing make you laugh make you cry (that's right) The same game that make you math could make you die (That's life) It's a dice game, and sometimes you crap Who would've thought you'd get popped one time and rat? Now you know that's bad when your sister is mad And your son gotta grow up, like, "This is my dad?" The labeling of a snitch is a lifetime scar You'll always be in jail, nigga, just minus the bars [Chorus: Too $hort + Jay-Z] It was cool when you had hella weed to smoke And you bought a new home where you could keep the folks I don't see how this side of you could be provoked Uh-huh, uh-huh, it was all good just a week ago Funny what seven days can change A stand up nigga, now you sit down to aim Used to have a firm grip, now you dropping names It was all good just a week ago [Outro: Too $hort] Shit is crazy man All these niggas out here snitchin' We was one step away from takin' this crack money And recyclin' it through the ghettos And buildin' back up our own hoods Now all you niggas start snitchin' on each other I got partners doin' 15-20 Wouldn'ta been doin' SHIT If you didn't snitch, beatch! It's about time y'all check that shit out man It ain't all good, shut your mouth Just watch the game And don't snitch We'd sure go a lot whole further Believe that baby Jay-Z, Short Dawg's in the house mane You know I got it Got it goin' on We got the money Ain't got nuthin' to do with crime baby But I'm recognizin' [Jay-Z] You rat bastard!

[Intro] Well, what do we have here? [Chorus] Get down, get down, get down Get down, get down, get down Get down, get down, get down Get down, get down, get down [Verse 1: Boots Riley] It's almost 10 o'clock, see, I gotta ball of lint for property So I slip my beanie on sloppily And promenade out to take up a collection I got game like I read the directions I'm wishing that I had an automobile As I feel the cold wind rush past But let me state that I'm a hustler for real So you know I got the stolen bus pass Just as the bus pulls up and I step to the rear This old lady look like she drank a 40 of fear I see my old-school partner, said his brother got popped Pay my respects, "can you ring the bell? We came to my stop" The street light reflects off the piss on the ground Which reflects off the hamburger sign as it turns round Which reflects off the chrome of the BMW Which reflects off the fact that I'm broke Now what the fuck is new? I need loot, I spot the motherfucka in the tweed suit And I'm in his ass quicker than a kick from a greased boot Eased up slow and discreet Could tell he was suspicious by the way he slid his feet Didn't want to fuck up the come-up So I smiled with my eyes said "hey, how's it hanging guy?" Bumped into his shoulder, but he passed with no reaction Damn this motherfucka had hella Andrew Jacksons! I'm a thief, or pickpocket - give a fuck what you call it Used to call 'em "fat cats," I just call them wallets Getting Federal: ain't just a klepto Mastercard or Visa? I gladly accept those Sneaky motherfucka with a scam, know how to pull it Got a mirror in my pocket, but that won't stop no bullets Story just begun, but you already know Ain't no need to get down, shit, I'm already low [Chorus] Get down, get down, get down Get down, get down, get down Get down, get down, get down Get down, get down, get down [Verse 2] My footsteps echo in the darkness My teeth clenched tight like a fist in the cold sharp mist I look down and I hear my stomach growling Step to Burger King to attack it like a Shaolin I never pay for shit that I can get by doing dirt Linger to the girl cashier and start to flirt All up in her face and her breath was like murder Damn, the shit I do for a free hamburger! Well you got my number, you gon' call me tonight? It depends: is them burgers attached to a price? I'm just kidding, I'ma call, even write you love letters Thanks for the burgers, um, hook me up with a Dr Pepper That's cool, you want some ice? Yeah, and some fries would be hella nice Damn my manager's coming, play it off, okay? 'Have a nice day!' I'm up outta here anyway I use peoples before they use me Cause you could get got by an Uzi over an OZ That's what an OG told me Gots to find someplace warm and cozy to eat the Victuals that I just got Came to a underground parking lot "This place is good as any, fuck it, it's all good" Walked in, found a car, hopped and sat up on the hood Ate my burger, threw back my cola Somebody said "hey," it was a rent-a-pig, I thought it was a roller "Want me to call the cops?" I don't want them to see me Looked down and saw that I was sitting on a Lamborghini It was Rollses, Ferraris, and Jags by the dozen A building door opened; damn, it was my cousin Getting off of work, dressed up, no lie Tux, cummerbund, and a black bow tie I was like "hey!" "Who is it?" "Me" "Oh, what's up man, I just quit this company They hella racist and the pay was too low" I said "right, what was up in there though?" "A party with rich motherfuckas, I don't know the situation I know they got cabbage, owning corporations IBM, Chrysler and shit is what they said" Just then a light bulb went off in my head "They be thinking all black folks is resembling Give me your tux and I'll do some pocket-swindling" Finna change in the bathroom and not freeze off my nuts Lets take a short break while I get into this tux [Pre-Chorus] Alright, I'm ready [Chorus] Get down, get down, get down Get down, get down, get down Get down, get down, get down Get down, get down, get down [Verse 3] Fresh, dressed like a million bucks I be the flyest motherfucka in an afro and a tux My arm is at a right angle, up, silver tray in my hand "May I interest you in some caviar, ma'am?" My eyes shoot around the room there and here Noticing the diamonds in the chandelier Background Barry Manilow, Copacabana And a strong-ass scent of stogies from Havana Wasn't no place where a brother might've been Snobby old ladies drinking champagne with rich white men Alright then: let's begin this Nights like this is good for business Five minutes in the mix, noticed several different cliques Talking, giggling and shit With, one motherfucka in betwixt And everybody else jocking him, throttling Found out later he owns Coca Cola bottling Talking to a black man, who's he? Confused me, looking hella bougie Ass all tight and seditty Recognized him as the mayor of my city Who treats young black men like Frank Nitti Mr Coke said to Mr Mayor: "You know, we got a process like Ice Ts hair We put up the funds for your election campaign And, oh, um, waiter can you bring the champagne? Our real estate firm says opportunity's arousing To make some condos out of low-income housing Immediately, we need some media heat To say that gangs run the street and then we bring in the police fleet! Harass and beat everybody till they look inebriated When we buy the land, motherfuckas will appreciate it Don't worry about the Urban League or Jesse Jackson My man that owns Marlboro donated a fat sum" That's when I stepped back some to contemplate what few know Sat down, wrestled with my thoughts like a sumo Ain't no one player that could beat this lunacy Ain't no hustler on the street could do a whole community This is how deep shit can get It reads "macaroni" on my birth certificate "Puddin'-Tane" is my middle name, but I can't hang I'm getting hustled, only knowing half the game [Outro] Shit, how the fuck I get up out this place?
