Back when Dot was hangin' at Top's in the Benzo Freestylin' to them Chronic instrumentals, no pens and pencils I was out there Bloodin' like a menstrual With a Backwood clinched between my dentals, way back when When we was outside with the indo Hotboxin' rentals in front of Centennial, remedial thoughts Never thought that I would amount to shit Smoke chronic, fuck bitches, ride around bouncin' shit From Impalas to that Harley truck, to dishraggin' bitches That was hard to fuck, I came up, it was hardly luck Just left Compton, and I ain't have to use my AK What a day, what a day Back when my drivers license, was baby faced and triflin' I made my way through crisis, I made my tape And recorded portraits in front of sirens, I made you hate the vibrant You can't escape the tyrant, you can't relate where I've been In '98 my problem, actin' too grown and shit Cappin' at bitches, yeah my religion through songs and shit On me, that's on me Raise up, nigga, you are not the homie Bitch I'm well-connected from my section down to Long Beach Fumblin' with Tetris if your block neglectin' your ki Everyday I wake up with my face up to my father Makin' sure my heart is pure enough to grow my seed and harvest All my king stuffin', double up my plantation with dollar Every dream is such reality, my deja vu done caught up Bitch I'm brought up with the homies, that's on me 24/7, Kendrick revvin' these cold streets Know we live by it, die by it, then reincarnate And if Game told me, "Drive by it," I raise AK Ain't no shame on it, cry about it, fuck that, I'll play Like no name on it, blindsided, ain't no one safe Documentary had identities of where I'm from Therefore my energy had to make sure the better me won It ain't no better one, son, it ain't no tellin' me nothin' Nigga it's Chuck, Doc Dre and K, the legacy's done, BLAOW!
