|
Growing up in my hood |
|
It was really on like that |
|
I had to put it down to had to do me a jab |
|
To give me a sack |
|
So I can come up |
|
On the block serving rocks from sun down to sun up |
|
I was, really puttin' it down like that |
|
And dressed in all black straight down for the jab |
|
I was a youngster, packing a 4-5 |
|
Better known they looney ass eastside (right) |
|
I had my chore, so I played the part of a gangsta |
|
Never ever coulda be a pranksta |
|
Pushing niggas in their face |
|
Puttin' punk bitches in their place |
|
Now feel the base |
|
Give you a taste of this gangsta shit |
|
I got the cavi tracks and my rims are on hit |
|
And like some weed it will brush ya |
|
Cause hanging on my block, you had to be a hustler |
|
[Chorus x2] |
|
You had to be a hustler |
|
Cause if you was a buster |
|
You know we wouldn't trust ya |
|
You had to be a hustler |
|
Cause if you was a buster |
|
You know we wouldn't trust ya |
|
[Verse 2] |
|
Now the year is 1989 |
|
I'm in the cavi spot and I'm doing fine |
|
I got ritches, I got bitches |
|
I got a caddy green 4 with 16 switches |
|
On some triple gold was |
|
Every single day straight swerving |
|
Zippin' on a cold one |
|
On my way to the weedspot |
|
I got my glock in the stashpot |
|
Cause the cops are kinda hot |
|
And now I got me a sack |
|
And now I'm heading back to the street |
|
Where the fucking money at |
|
It's the block where I slang |
|
And all the G niggas hang |
|
And the young niggas bang |
|
Puttin' it down every single night |
|
Getting there drunk showin' off try to fight |
|
One and other but we still had love |
|
And rest in peace to my niggas up above |
|
Because uh |
|
[Chorus x2] |
|
[Verse 3] |
|
It's a cold thang when you got no game |
|
See every smoker on the block know my name |
|
I was a youngster with boulders for your shoulders |
|
And still slanging cavi and ?muchoda? |
|
And I got some niggas down with me |
|
See every single day we sell a pound you see |
|
Or that bomb ass dote mack |
|
So come to my block and get a fat sack |
|
We got that shit that I fuck you up |
|
So don't take it to the head or you might get stuck |
|
So grap a partner and spot the bomb |
|
Cause it will have you like tweakie from dust to dawn |
|
I tell the truth and I never lie |
|
Cause I promise I smoke chronic till the day I die |
|
And a new face on the block |
|
We couldn't trust ya |
|
Cause you might be a busta |
|
[Chorus x4] |
