Askin' where I'm from while he running up Gangbang my set'll nag one of them Some things, some they just won't change Fools don't respect nothin' but the gang bang What's seen is what's sawn, Dogg is the law I had you niggas running like a marathon Lil G's tryna creep on the east with it Talkin' 'bout they gon' get my chain and they gon' leave with it But they don't know, once they get close it's tic-tac-toe Three motherfuckers laid on the floor (watch out) Yeah, this happened yesterday On the West they spray I Heard an Ese say He said Vato, you won't believe what they saw? I saw these pack of guys and they act real hard (and what they do?) They twisted fingers say, "You know who we are?" He said, "I don't give a fuck, I'm Snoop Doggy Dogg" They kept fuckin' and it went too far So, Snoop, he went straight to the trunk of his car (and what he get?) He got his gun and they start runnin' hard He started firin' and then he just charged Run nigga, run nigga Duck nigga, duck nigga Run motherfucker, run Run motherfucker, run Run nigga, run nigga Duck nigga, duck nigga Run motherfucker, run Run motherfucker, run I didn't mean to hit what I hit Now that's three motherfuckers dead and I ain't seen shit But these niggas a scream with plea But for like a G like me it's just a case Believe and you can see I crack the mac back and pop off rollin' And smack your neck back, you drop off fallin' I haven't seen my mama in a week And she ain't even ran her mouth about me Fuck that, I ain't give a fuck about the law Niggas say they wanna brawl You would think that they wore bra's Believe in all the things that you never saw In it y'all, been a Dogg, smoke you like a menathol You think you know? But this can't go You think you'll blow, all my dough? What the fuck? No! See these niggas proceed with speed So if they need to bleed All you'll hear is my enemies going Vato, you won't believe what they saw?

He said, "I don't give a fuck, I'm Snoop Doggy Dogg" They kept fuckin' and it went too far So, Snoop, he went straight to the trunk of his car (and what he get?) He got his gun and they start runnin' hard He started firin' and then he just charged Run nigga, run nigga Duck nigga, duck nigga Run motherfucker, run Run motherfucker, run Run nigga, run nigga Duck nigga, duck nigga Run motherfucker, run Run motherfucker, run I wouldn't be the nigga that I am If I didn't pop niggas in their mouth, goddamn! If Snoop a keep a foot on the streets And lead and cover the sheets Run wit them niggas wit the heat You never seen a thug like this You never seen a dub like me And I ain't weak for wantin' peace in fact I could be beast of the East motherfucker I never hesitate to blaze A nigga really tryna change his ways We gotta move my team 'cause my people's Are screaming that we need more for fun or is it legal (with a bang) On this song make it feel like a drive-by It's a shame but somebody gotta die They say it happens state to state But when I'm mobbin' LA All I hear the Ese's say they go Vato, you won't believe what they saw?
