Whenver talklin shit, I straight rip 'em
5
And niggaz know I come equip when I whip them
6
[Short Dawg]
7
You say how can I make these dirty raps
8
Number one albums, back to back
9
If it was 1950, do you think I sell, no
10
They probably throw me straight to jail
11
I tell you life just ain't what it used to be
12
Between you and me, exclusively
13
Everybody's changed, were losing our minds
14
The government won't help, cause they refuse to find
15
A solution to the problems of the inner streets
16
Its a shame what our kids are beginning to be
17
Pregnant teenagers, young gun slangers
18
There ain't no love, there ain't nothin but anger
19
We don't go to church and can't pray in school
20
Listen real close to what I'm sayin fool
21
I know kids who went to school together
22
Now they all grown up, tryin to kill each other
23
Shootouts on the playground is where it goes down
24
But back in the day, we rode the merry-go-round
25
And some little kid might shoot me tonight
26
And I always used to wonder what the future be like
27
Curse words on the tv and radio
28
You wanna see sex, turn it on HBO
29
Late at night, you see women freak women
30
Sex sale, that's why I keep pimpin
31
I grew up in the 70s', somethin like Crooklyn
32
But I was in Cali not Brooklyn
33
I could tell the whole world was going crazy
34
But it really didn't happen til the 80s'
35
With freebasin and smokin crack
36
A lotta people learned not to joke with that
37
Streets flooded, with homeless folks
38
Whole families, lives gone up in smoke
39
We're all related to a crackhead
40
Sometimes I wake up in the mornin and wanna go back to bed
41
Layin these thinkin bout things
42
About the way life change
43
How women used to like to wear decent clothes
44
Now they curse like men and dress like hoes
45
You supposed to be a virgin til you marry
46
But teenage girls find it normal to carry a baby
47
Babies havin babies
48
Rappers like me always disrespectin ladies
49
Wonder why it's like that, well so do I
50
But I just turn my back and then I go get high
51
Cause I get paid real good to talk bad about a bitch
52
And you bought it, so don't be mad I got rich
53
Ask your grandparents, is life the same
54
Man thangs change
55
Chorus
56
There used to be a time when old folks were respected
57
Kids talkin back was never accepted
58
Get spanked and your mouth got washed out with soap
59
But kids nowadays will curse out old folks
60
Then you tell me I need to be a role model
61
And get these babies off the 40ounce bottles
62
But I'm not the one who made alcohol legal
63
Liquor stores on every corner that's why we go
64
Buy 40ounces and go get drunk
65
Don't respect our kids, like no good punks
66
And then they grow up to be hardcore criminals
67
Shoot 'em up, slang dope always pimpin hoes
68
I know it's those that don't believe what I'm sayin on the mic right
69
So Baby D won't you tell them what it's like
70
[Baby D]
71
Its kinda hard comin up as a youngster
72
Gotta deal with the roof that I'm under
73
Even though my moms got it hard
74
My daddy passed away, now I'm stuck without a father
75
But times have changed bro
76
I never ever seen Santa Claus comin through the ghetto
77
But you know what i always see
78
I always see the white man robbin the black man back G
79
And I don't even get in trouble for it
80
And I don't see nothin forward
81
Always tryin to beat the black man to death
82
Punk police wanna hide behind your badge
83
Always tryin arrest somebody
84
All we gotta do is beat him with the billyclub
85
Here I come, I comin with my gun
86
I'm shootin in the head police now what
87
[Short Dawg]
88
I tell you life is too short for it to be like that
89
We gotta be leaders, can't follow the pack
90
With all them fiends in the streets smokin crack
91
What you give life is what it gives you back
92
Cause money in the ghetto ain't nothin new
93
But when you get the money gotta know what to do
94
Buy you a business or buy you a house
95
Just so the police can't wipe you out
96
I heard it in the streets, they say you the man
97
So try to help your brothers and lend a helpin hand
98
Now what we gone do
99
[Mr. Malik]
100
We came to stack some bodies, killin everybody like John Gotti
101
I said we came to stack some bodies, killin everybody like John Gotti
102
Now run up and get gun up the slack black
103
I'm hittin blackjack in the casino when I mack slap
104
What you wanna play like Al Pacino with this
105
Type of style withthe lyricist this funk of hits
106
And the biscuits I drop
107
Motherfuckers know I come down and show me ??
108
I don't really care
109
From the front or the rear
110
Word to your mother I'm bout to smother and smear
111
Its that master all I intelligent
112
Chain that I swing from the others is irrelevant
113
For you motherfucker step up to the m-i-c
114
I'm down with Shorty, Ant Banks and Mally G
115
Its Malik and I freak it's obsolete
116
My technique motherfucker know I flow over beats
117
Like water, slaughter dick in yo daughter
118
And my nuts up in her jaws when she suckin on my balls
119
Yiggy y'all niggaz best to ask somebody
120
Cause I'm shootin motherfuckers down with the shotty
121

122
Its, it's the motherfuckin ghetto bastard
