[Ice Cube]
2
Ha ha, that's my shit
3
Turn it up
4
Uh, yeah
5
I hear a beat like this, and think about growin' up
6
House parties, with gang-bangers showin' up
7
Represent your hood, everybody throw it up
8
They say Cube get on the mic, nigga blow it up
9
I used to lyrical, political
10
But now you want it sugarcoated like cereal
11
First I met Dre, then I met Yella (yes-sir)
12
Dr. Dre made me rap acapella
13
Me and Jinx did a show at Dudo's
14
With K-Dee, I think it was two shows
15
Then Dre introduced me to E
16
Cruisin' down the street in his red Jeep
17
He said, yo niggas we should flip it like this
18
Cause them Boyz N the Hood like the gangsta shit
19
I put the pen to the pad, young nigga was raw
20
And told the world how we felt about the law
21
It was real
22
[Chorus: x2]
23
I see the happiness (all day every day)
24
I see the pain
25
Where am I (growin' up in the hood)
26
Back down memory lane
27
[Ice Cube]
28
Oh shit, it's N.W.A.!
29
Them niggas on tour and they comin' our way
30
Lil' Eminem is still tucked away
31
In that trailer park, just bumpin' our tape
32
Jerry Heller tried to make his escape
33
I had to bounce, while other niggas got raped
34
Same niggas turned around and said fuck me
35
No FUCK YOU cause I'm down with Chuck D
36
And I'm 'bout to do a movie up, a classic
37
When I hit the screen, nigga it was magic
38
Never thought I'd see Eazy in a casket
39
Thanks for everything, that's on everything
40
I learned a lot of game from you
41
I like your son, he got his name from you
42
I tell him everything that he need to know
43
If he ask my advice, I won't think twice homey
44
[Chorus]
45
[Ice Cube]
46
From Boyz N the Hood, to XXX 2
47
Everybody wanna know my next move
48
Fans all around say "We love you Cube!"
49
I wanna take time to say I love you too
50
I love all my fans cause they know I'm a man
51
And not a little boy or some fuckin' play toy
52
A lot of niggas say I grew up on you
53
And let me know if anybody fuck with'chu
54
Cause you talk a lot of shit about the red, black and blue
55
And how they treat a nigga called Katrina, did you see her
56
White folks worry 'bout them fuckin' misdemeanor
57
While black people dyin' in that God damn arena
58
Just because I'm actin' nigga never stop rappin'
59
It's in my blood homey, I'ma keep the party crackin'
60
Money keep stackin' till they put me in a casket
61
Who you think you fuckin' wit? Here's another classic
62
[Chorus]
63
[Ice Cube]
64
I'm Ruthless, I'm Ruthless
65
Street Knowledge
66
Lench Mob
67
Westside
68
Uh
69
[Chorus]
