| [00:00.00] |
Finally out the mother****in' |
| [00:01.83] |
CPTOff to other cities and shit, no longer just an underground hit |
| [00:06.63] |
Moving thangs, a local ****er made good |
| [00:09.03] |
And made a name off of making tapes for ****az in the hood |
| [00:11.61] |
And now, let me tell a little story |
| [00:14.13] |
About the places that |
| [00:15.09] |
I been to and the shit that |
| [00:16.20] |
I been through |
| [00:16.92] |
Like fightin' and shootouts and bangin' and shit |
| [00:19.50] |
All because a ****er made a hit, check it |
| [00:22.11] |
Nineteen ninety one, it was double or nothin' that a ****er would hit |
| [00:25.62] |
Then we broke out with the fonky shit |
| [00:27.45] |
About ****ers and niggaz and gettin' drunken off that bud |
| [00:30.42] |
I was doing the shit they hadn't heard of |
| [00:32.46] |
But foolish was |
| [00:33.18] |
I to think that it wasn't no other cities like this |
| [00:35.97] |
And that they didn't like this |
| [00:37.20] |
That Compton was the home of a foot in yo ass, where you got blast |
| [00:40.53] |
And now that's just a thing of the past |
| [00:42.36] |
Let me tell ya why firsthand, we did a show up in |
| [00:44.88] |
OaklandAnd ****az was kickin' up sand, to them bangin' ain't nothin' new |
| [00:48.63] |
And slangin' ain't nothin' new |
| [00:49.95] |
And for every ****er we done shot they done shot two |
| [00:52.44] |
Straight through and on since the sixties before |
| [00:54.72] |
I was born |
| [00:55.74] |
Families of young niggaz mourn |
| [00:57.42] |
So I'm just letting you know |
| [00:59.07] |
That if ya plan to take a trip to the bay keep your hand on the clip |
| [01:02.31] |
Because Oakland(It's jus lyke Compton) |
| [01:06.18] |
Yeah, I'm telling y'all |
| [01:07.80] |
Oakland(It's jus lyke Compton for y'all) |
| [01:11.88] |
Moving on to |
| [01:12.69] |
St. Louis, where the country is ****ed |
| [01:14.97] |
With gold teeth ain't hey mouth, but they still know what's up |
| [01:17.61] |
Where it's hot as a mother****er, hot enough to make ya cuss |
| [01:20.94] |
That's why |
| [01:21.33] |
I kept my ass on the bus |
| [01:22.86] |
But later on, when it cooled off we came down |
| [01:25.20] |
And met a couple of friends, who put us up on the |
| [01:27.27] |
St. Louis cap |
| [01:28.26] |
The Smith |
| [01:28.65] |
Center, with |
| [01:29.40] |
Big Bob, Little |
| [01:30.27] |
Steve, Tojo, |
| [01:31.23] |
Biss and Rich |
| [01:32.16] |
And a couple of ****ers |
| [01:33.45] |
Then they took us to a man named |
| [01:34.92] |
Gus in a store |
| [01:35.94] |
He put me down with a herringbone and shoes galore |
| [01:38.70] |
That's when |
| [01:39.09] |
I started thinking that this wasn't like home |
| [01:41.22] |
But then they had to prove me wrong' |
| [01:43.11] |
Cuz later that night after we did the show |
| [01:45.42] |
We went back to the after set, and wouldn't ya know |
| [01:47.91] |
Yeah, Bloods and |
| [01:48.87] |
Crips start scrapping and shootin' in |
| [01:50.61] |
Missouri?Damn, how could this happen? |
| [01:52.74] |
Now St. Louis(It's jus lyke Compton) |
| [01:56.91] |
Yeah y'all, |
| [01:58.17] |
St. Louis(It's jus lyke Compton for y'all) |
| [02:02.97] |
I don't think they know, they too crazy for their own good |
| [02:06.00] |
They need to stop watchin' that |
| [02:07.35] |
Colors and |
| [02:08.07] |
Boyz in the |
| [02:08.55] |
HoodToo busy claiming |
| [02:10.05] |
Sixties, tryin' to be raw |
| [02:11.67] |
And never ever seen the |
| [02:12.87] |
ShawBut now, back to the story that |
| [02:14.91] |
I'm tellin' |
| [02:15.48] |
We packed up the tour bus one more time and started bailin' |
| [02:18.72] |
When we arrived |
| [02:19.68] |
I saw red and blue sweat suits |
| [02:21.12] |
When I'm thinkin' 'bout horse donkey and cowboy boots |
| [02:24.06] |
I guess Texas ain't no different from the rest |
| [02:26.13] |
And San Antonio, was just waitin' to put us to the test |
| [02:29.28] |
And before it was over the shit got deep |
| [02:31.71] |
A ****er got shot in the face, and was dead in the street |
| [02:34.29] |
Then they came in the club thinkin' of scrappin' |
| [02:36.51] |
Little did they know that we was packin' |
| [02:38.67] |
Yeah, we was puttin' 'em down and squaring the rest, shit |
| [02:41.19] |
I even had to wear the bulletproof vest |
| [02:43.23] |
Now San Antonio(It's jus lyke Compton) |
| [02:47.97] |
Yeah, San |
| [02:48.96] |
Antonio(It's jus lyke Compton for y'all) |
| [02:53.73] |
After a month on the road |
| [02:55.11] |
We came home and |
| [02:56.01] |
I can safely say |
| [02:57.30] |
That L.A. is a much better place to stay |
| [02:59.82] |
How could a bunch of ****az in a town like this |
| [03:02.16] |
Have such a big influence on ****az so far away? |
| [03:04.62] |
But still my story ain't over 'cuz |
| [03:06.15] |
I got one more to tell |
| [03:07.35] |
And the people of |
| [03:08.07] |
Colorado, they know it well |
| [03:09.84] |
It was all in the news and if you don't remember |
| [03:12.24] |
I had this show |
| [03:12.90] |
I did in Denver |
| [03:14.25] |
With a punk ass promoter in a bunk ass skating rink |
| [03:17.07] |
****ers was loving it, but ****az was shovin' and shit |
| [03:19.92] |
To the front of the stage to throw their gang signs |
| [03:22.68] |
But I'm getting paid so |
| [03:23.88] |
I didn't pay it no mind |
| [03:25.02] |
Then I poured out my brew onto their face and chest |
| [03:27.60] |
Then they start throwin' soda, and ****ing up my guests |
| [03:29.94] |
When it was over two ****az needed stitches |
| [03:32.01] |
Got cracked in they jaw for being punk ass ****ers |
| [03:34.59] |
Now Denver(It's jus lyke Compton) |
| [03:38.97] |

| [03:39.90] |
