|
Black people dont have no, no where to go |
|
you know, all we got to do is kick it |
|
we gonna kick it in our hood, you know |
|
what we gonna do, we might |
|
we might go kill a couple of ******z mane |
|
you know, go in they hood and do a drive-by |
|
then come back in the hood and laugh about that stuff |
|
you know, its just a thing |
|
only how you really gonna get deep into it |
|
is when one of your homeys die |
|
just like when my partnaz died |
|
(we got some problems) |
|
[Chorus] |
|
First we pray, then we ride |
|
First we pray, then we ride |
|
He was my brother |
|
loved him like no other |
|
to top it off |
|
I introduced him to this game |
|
I knew his mother |
|
loved her like my mother |
|
part of me is gone |
|
bout take my brother home |
|
[Bridge] |
|
(what're ya gonna do) |
|
when the trials come |
|
(are ya gonna run?) |
|
are you gonna run? |
|
(what're ya gonna do) |
|
first I'm gonna pray |
|
(are ya gonna run?) |
|
you mutha****** right |
|
[Chorus] |
|
First we pray, then we ride |
|
First we pray, then we ride |
|
[Kurupt] |
|
I aint got nuthin but love for you loccs and hogs |
|
and I ain't got nuthin but love for my mutha****** dogs |
|
in the mist of the war zone, its on on site |
|
daylight tonight the heat held close and tight |
|
beware here I come with the DPG on my chest |
|
heat gonna spit like Elliot Ness |
|
in the darkest zone you feel alone and on your own |
|
and after I bust, ******z call me Kurupt Coleone |
|
all I'm about is money, loot and cash |
|
homeys in the DPG Nate, Snoop and Daz |
|
now with these emotions how you approach yourself |
|
knowin you all about your wealth and as it is to health |
|
first I pray, get my thoughts intact |
|
ask for forgiveness cuz I'm bout to lay this ****** flat |
|
can you adapt, can you feel me, I doubt it |
|
cuz the closest you see it, is when ******z write about it |
|
I can't live without it and it ain't ******t I could do |
|
but stay down with the homeys in grey and blue |
|
so just keep the heat close in hand |
|
cuz I done see ******z get ******t while they homeboys ran |
|
[Nate Dogg] |
|
Heavenly father ******ne your light on me |
|
I know I promise to slow down on this ****** |
|
Seems I remember someone used to say |
|
one life gets taken, if you take one life away |
|
[Bridge] |
|
(what're ya gonna do) |
|
when the trials come |
|
(are ya gonna run?) |
|
are you gonna run? |
|
(what're ya gonna do?) |
|
first I'm gonna pray |
|
(are ya gonna run?) |
|
you mutha****** right |
|
[Chorus x2] |
|
First we pray, then we ride |
|
First we pray, then we ride |
