Lyrics

[00:13.21] I got another gang story to tell
[00:16.17] Peep about how a black nigga was born in hell
[00:19.88] And right then and there it's no hope
[00:22.26] 'Cause a nigga can't escape the gangs and the dope
[00:25.17] Damn! And when its black on black that makes it shitty
[00:28.72] Can't survive in the Compton city, and fool thats bet
[00:33.76] 'Cause when you grow up in the hood you got to claim a set
[00:37.84] Ge ah its not that you want to but you have to
[00:40.89] Don't be a mark, 'cause niggas might laugh you
[00:43.55] Straight off the mother****in' block
[00:46.26] Can't deal with bust as so they asses get clocked
[00:49.20] Ge ah, who gives a **** about another
[00:52.37] Only got love for my ****in' gang brothers
[00:55.83] Ge ah but I'm young so nobody would wonder
[01:00.17] That the hood would take me under
[01:03.16] Always strapped and eager to peel a cap
[01:05.15] The hood done took me under
[01:09.42] Always strapped and eager to peel a cap
[01:11.94] The hood done took me under
[01:15.02] Now I'm a few ages older
[01:16.94] Got hair on my nuts and I'm a little bit bolder
[01:19.96] And puttin' in work, I has to do my ****in' part
[01:22.89] I'm down for the hood and it's planted in the heart
[01:26.68] Fool, at school slappin' on the girls asses
[01:30.05] **** the white education so I skip a lot of classes
[01:33.27] 'Cause ain't no teaching a nigga white reality
[01:36.14] Teach me the mother****in' gang mentality
[01:40.33] Pop pop pop, drops the sucker
[01:42.48] If he's from another hood I got to shoot the mother****er
[01:45.48] Ge ah I'm in it to win it and can't quit
[01:48.54] Fool, and ready die for this shit
[01:51.33] One times can't fade the gang tough
[01:54.96] Puttin' my foot in your ass to make times rough
[01:58.35] I'm the neighborhood terror but I never wondered
[02:01.54] That the hood would take me under
[02:04.58] Always strapped and eager to peel a cap
[02:06.82] The hood done took me under
[02:10.23] Always strapped and eager to peel a cap
[02:14.66] The hood done took me under
[02:17.32] Police is hot, so I'm watching my back
[02:19.38] The hood done took me under
[02:22.73] Police is hot, so I'm watching my back
[02:25.24] The hood done took me under
[02:28.71] I guess I'll watch my back 'cause niggas jivin'
[02:31.34] Times heard this brother pulled a 187
[02:34.17] Who I thought was my homie dropped the dime
[02:37.08] So I gotta peel his cap with the nine
[02:40.28] Fool, if it's on then it's on, **** ya G
[02:43.35] Because how the odds are looking, it's either him or me
[02:47.07] So I loads up the strap and I step
[02:50.03] 'Cause my brain cells are dead and all I think is death
[02:53.39] Revenge, that's what its all about
[02:56.18] See the sucker, take the mother****er out
[02:59.44] Stare the fool down with the eye contact
[03:02.47] He try to swing so I draw on him with the gatt
[03:05.96] Blast was the sound that one times heard
[03:08.80] Nigga 25 to live for the murder
[03:11.23] Was it worth it I've always wondered
[03:14.84] Maybe if the hood didn't take me under
[03:19.67] Ge ah, this going out to all the niggas
[03:23.73] It's going out to my niggas
[03:25.78] It's going out to all the niggas
[03:28.55] My nigga Mike T
[03:29.95] Ge ah
