[ verse 1: king tee ]
2
They live on the street and they hustle for fame
3
Some kill for a livin, some sling cocaine
4
Because it's now a lifestyle and a full-time job
5
And if you live in compton, it's like at mccobb
6
From block to block everybody's bad
7
And if you don't know where you're at, then your life's been had
8
Cause they walk in the street with intentions to meet
9
Some sappy lookin punk with fila on his feet
10
And if you try to act tough, well mr. tough, you're through
11
Cause everybody's a family, if not, they're a crew
12
I'm here to give some advice advice (run!)
13
Cause if you're ever in compton, you better bring a gun
14
Yo, here come my homeboy mixmaster spade
15
Man, what's up, man?
16
Hey man, ain't you from compton, man?
17
(ah yeah)
18
Alright man, tell em what's up, man
19
What you used to do
20
[ verse 2: mixmaster spade ]
21
I used to cut up the beat on the two turntables
22
Now I'm rappin on the mic, cause I'm willin and able
23
When I'm on the mic I take no slack
24
And everytime that you see me I'm tearin a gat
25
I got .380s and .22s
26
You messs with me, I'm gonna bust on you
27
I got a .357 and a m-16
28
They call me master spade, and tee's the king
29
Now compton is the city where the homeboys stay
30
Rollin in a different car everyday
31
Can't roll too hard, gotta watch my back
32
Cause if I don't, I just might get jacked
33
Now compton is a city of a lotta fun
34
(can't walk down the street
35
(can't walk down the street
36
Can't walk down the stree without my gun)
37
[ female voice ]
38
Now you know this just don't make no kinda sense
39
[ verse 3: king tee ]
40
Now the next place is kinda risky if you're walkin with your mother
41
Y'all can get shot if she wears the wrong color
42
They're all from the old school, nobody's modern
43
The place I'm talkin 'bout is the nickerson gardens
44
You can get away with murder, cause they murdered the cops
45
Cause they said they tried to run a bumrush on watts
46
But they took control, slingers walk real tall
47
While real down gangbangers write their set on the wall
48
If I was you I wouldn't visit here, it's like hell
49
And if you get robbed, who you gonna tell?
50
I'm only here for advice advice (run!)
51
And if you're ever in watts, you better bring a gun
52
[ verse 4: king tee ]
53
Now you got a nice car with a brand-new paintin
54
Rag top convertable with all-gold daytons
55
You decide to take a ride down the crenshaw strip
56
You stop at the fat burgers to feed your lip
57
You got your sounds bumpin, playin zapp and vibe
58
A skeezer comes your way, you say, "let's take a ride"
59
So you're cruisin crenshaw with her, you're goin to bail
60
A brown cutlass pulls up, they put a gauge to your head
61
They say, "(get our your car) if you value your life
62
(and leave your money) if you love your wife"
63
Now you're standin in the street lookin like you're on crack
64
And you say to yourself: I can't believe I got jacked
65
You call the police because your car they stole
66
But when you get in touch with them, they put you on hold
67
Your car is gone, nothin could be done
68
So next time you cruise crenshaw, you better bring a gun!
69
Alright, I wanna thank mixmaster spade for comin out to rock with me
70
(and greg mack) the mack attack
71
And I also wanna thank j-ro and sweet tooth for comin out rockin
72

73
And I wanna thank scotty d, cold-crush chris
74
And dj pooh, the hip-hop gangster
75
