Seems that we make it and we take it we ballin' we crawlin' We look out for homicide, when it's war outside We be finding them targets and squawkin' So niggas better run and hide Seems that we make it and we take it we ballin' we crawlin' We look out for homicide Stay focused with my eye on the prize West coast it's a wrap, so hood it's my time, nigga Livin' life of crime that's the way I was raised Ridin' up and down green leaf that's how I got paid (Hustler) Picked up the game at an early age Grind hard stay at it, time for minimum wage Do it big stay at it, that's how the G's came through On the block where I'm from nigga the streets paid you My hood your hood really ain't nothin' new But me and you both different, can't walk in my shoes You better find me, or I'mma find you But I ain't trippin' bout my paper, never mind you Catch you slippin' nigga show you what that nine do Strapped up stay prepared when it's time to Compton, city of the hub Ride around beach cruisers niggas chunkin' up dubs White tees khakis and chucks not givin' a fuck Gang bang mind of a menace or you givin' it up (Yeah) Mind of a killer nigga (The watcher, watch ya back) They might get a nigga When you least expect he offer the check Now it's money on your head what the fuck you expect nigga No patience they out to get me they been waitin' too long Stay on my Ps and Qs, ten toes with the chrome Not just in the streets everywhere I perform So hood ride with me, they predictin' a storm 20 Gauge so powerful it'll rip through your arm Try me if you want it homie remember you been warned Act like you want it I'm changin' the movie script (Action) This the scene where you hit by the Uzi clip (Ride up) Don't care I ride for the cause When there's beef involved I won't hesitate or stall Cause you so called gangstas scream and act raw One shot to the head brains turn to coleslaw Careful who you hang with when the drama start Cause that so called bad ass might have no heart That's why I keep warriors get me out that tight jam Even if it means givin' up they right hand
