Life |
|
Niggaz used to come and get me |
|
When it was time to disagree with an enemy |
|
Pass the Hennessey it gives me energy |
|
Packed the gat in the small of my back |
|
Where these niggaz at I clear the whole pack |
|
Talkin' shit 'cuz I'm down for my set I'm a vet |
|
Smokin' on a wet cigarette |
|
(Who these niggaz think they are?) |
|
(Wishin' on a ghetto star I represent my tar, [Incomprehensible]) |
|
I start bustin' and they scatter like water bugs |
|
'Cuz these Westside niggaz is harder thugs |
|
Enslave us but nothin' can save us from sportin' Ben Davis |
|
Shootin' at your neighbors |
|
('Cuz sometimes I feel like a nut, don't give a fuck when I open ya up) |
|
Hot rocks fly from the back seat |
|
And busta ass niggaz run like a track meet |
|
And if you crawl in the middle bleed mo' than a little |
|
(What?) |
|
Killer king is the hospital, feelin' numb from the bullets I hum |
|
And when they hit, black mothers have fits, I don't give a shit |
|
Fool, I'm a vet you can bet |
|
That I could dance underwater and not get wet |
|
(Check it) |
|
It's rainin' bullets and I'm still there |
|
(Foe life) |
|
I'm still there |
|
My house shoes get wet from the dew on the grass |
|
Up early in the morning takin' out the trash |
|
Feelin' like a loser alcohol abuser |
|
Two youngsters roll up on a beach cruiser |
|
One on the pedals the other on the handle bars |
|
(What?) |
|
Tryin' be ghetto stars they said |
|
"Are you from the Westside, is it so?" |
|
I said, "Hell yea and who wanna know? |
|
(Me) |
|
In slow mo fo', fo' slugs face down in the mud |
|
Puddle full of blood left for dead |
|
The pain starts to spread now I can't feel my legs |
|
I meet Dr. Who, at King Drew Medical Center |
|
As I enter I.C.U. |
|
He said, "The bullet hit a nerve that was vital" |
|
I said, "I can't move my legs", he said, |
|
"Don't try to, now this ain't the end, my friend" |
|
("What?") |
|
"But you'll probably never walk again" |
|
I sit there motionless holdin' this pain inside contemplating suicide |
|
At night, I jerk and jerk |
|
But my dick don't work, it don't even hurt |
|
(Damn) |
|
Now who'd ever thought a nigga rude as Ice Cube |
|
I be pissin' through a tube |
|
Fool, I'm a vet |
|
Fool, I'm a vet you can bet |
|
That I could dance underwater and not get wet |
|
(Check it) |
|
It's rainin' bullets and I'm still there |
|
Young ghetto nigga in a wheelchair |
|
Fuck a V A they need G A |
|
Gang hospital for a cripple now I'm drinkin' rippal |
|
Same corner same hood I'm still there |
|
With bandanas tied to my wheel chair |
|
To all the hood rat hoes, I'm fired |
|
They mad 'cuz my tongue get tired |
|
Now everybody wanna put they dope on me |
|
Sayin' I won't get searched by the L.A.P.D. |
|
I'm sitting on a doorway, duece five |
|
Dependin' on that to keep my ass alive |
|
I don't got bows but my arm's about a one-six |
|
With fuckin' legs, lookin' like tooth picks |
|
Sometimes I can't deal, got to beg the B G's to roll me up the hill |
|
(C'mon man) |
|
Put me on the porch, now I'm on the torch smokin' cocaine |
|
Just to maintain nutin' to gain, nutin' to lose |
|
And last night I couldn't make it to the bathroom |
|
Feelin' like a two year old, you can't get a sip from the brew I hold |
|
Nigga, its the only friend to a stranger, AKA handicap gang banger |
|
There's a lot in my life I regret becomin' a ghetto vet |
|
Fool, I'm a vet |
|
Fool, I'm a vet you can bet |
|
That I could dance underwater and not get wet |
|
