Peace. Haha don't make me laugh!

All I hear is muthafucker's talkin' sucotash
4
Livin' large tellin' me to get out the gang
5
I'm a nigga gotta live by the trigger
6
How the fuck do you figure?
7
That I can say peace and the gunshots won't cease
8
Every cop killin' goes ignored
9
They just send another nigga to the morgue
10
A point scored they could give a fuck about us
11
They rather catch us with guns and white powder
12
If I was old, they'd probably be a friend of me
13
Since I'm young, they consider me the enemy
14
They kill ten of me to get the job correct
15
To serve, protect, and break a niggas neck
16
Cuz I'm the one with the trunk of funk
17
And 'Fuck tha Police' in the tape deck
18
You should listen to me cuz there's more to see

Call my neighborhood a ghetto cuz it houses minorities

The other color don't know you can run but not hide

These are tales from the darkside...

You wanna free Africa, I stare at yuh

Cuz we ain't got it too good in America

I can't fuck with them overseas

My homeboy died over a key of cocaine
27
It was plain and simple
28
The 9mm went to the temple
29
was the sound I put the bitch down
30
And ran to the schoolyard bathroom
31
Looked in the trash can yo it had room
32
So I ducked my ass in it for a minute
33
Covered with sweat I had the layback
34
Mad as fuck, thinkin' about the payback
35
Tonite the crew gonna have a little fun
36
I went home and cocked the barrel of my shotgun
37
It's gettin' critical - I start the five point o
38
There they go - drive real slow
39
I yelled out 'Ice Cube sucka'
40
Shot gun hit - and murder mutahfuckers
41
I told you last album, when I got a sawed off, bodies are hard off
42
Its a shame, that niggas die young
43
But to the light side it don't matter none
44
It'll be a drive by homicide
45
But to me its just another tale from the darkside...

Standing in the middle of war
48
The middle we flex
49
When we die, they won't make check

Ebony can't see to the darkside
51
The term they apply to us is a nigga
52
Call it what you want, cuz I'm comin' from the coroner

Same applies with a PhD
54
Who'z black - don't wanna role - sells his soul
55
Watch his head go rollin'
56
Who the fuck are they foolin'?
57
Nobody knows, but I suppose the color of my clothes
58
Matches the color of the one on my face as they wonder whats under my waist
59
[Standin on the verge] of them gettin' brown
60
thats a fact got a fear on their bozack
61
Run, run, run, their ass off, they can not hide
62
Yet Cube, they can't fuck with the darkside!
