The Alkaholic funks in the house (Thanks for coming) Now, let me introduce who's first A nigga that's been down with the set since birth Whatever it was worth I checked in on the norm, since a juvenile callin' shots in the dorm Mom said "You better get right or shake the spot" I chose to break and be a rollin' stone like pops Stashin' my rocks by the gate with the Gs So I can talk crazy when the narks yell "Freeze!" I don't fight the feel, I gots to hustle wit' a passion Comin' 'cross states to put you down with some action In actuality, I keeps it real on the streets Reminiscin' younger days over gangsta-ass beats, and I Hit the weed 'till my eyeballs bleed While my life is corrupted by lust and greed Serve you anything from cocaine up to speed I came wit' the drank so here's five on the weed Yeah, Yeah See, kids don't belong up in grown folk's business The Likwit niggas rollin' through wit' a thickness Sickness bear witness like tequila without no chaser It burns going down, niggas guaranteed to drown Legendary sound from the West Coast underground The mighty King Tee and mister X to the Z Never underestimate the power of the X-Man Dismantle your plan, or just catch you wit' a backhand Xzibit bring it to you live wit' the know-how Cool in the gang, it ain't about to change my lifestyle I'm catching bodies in this uphill battle But Xzibit unravel how smoke will travel I bust Teflon rhymes into the crowd, bitch You ain't Steve Rif, so stop tryna get loud!

Sending birds to Oklahoma City to my friends I slang the gangsta funk through the night Sometimes I fright, like I'm the ghost of Eric Wright Compton is where I dwell, it's like hell Slanging that shit that's got the smokers in a spell And all my homies live lives like crooks Rich and infamous, hoes wanna look but get shook Because we don't trust you hoes You have a nigga fucked up wit' a bullet through his clothes Positively, nothing's positive Negativity's positively how we live Positively, nothing's positive Negativity's positively how we live Yeah, ladies and gentlemen, undivided attention Xzibit get you open like Nicole Brown Simpson It's the most dangerous thing next to grizzlies, unsolved mysteries Xzibit hit you penitentiary-style Quick, sharp and straight to the neck I'm heavy on your chest I'm all up in your life like stress The coast that resides to your left Where niggas perpetrate and catch a fate worse than death And like cyanide, I'm hard to detect Got more designs and straight lines than an architect King Tee, Chapter 4, Verse 7 reads: "Xzibit shall come down and break down humanity" Niggas lose they sanity tryna handle me Dysfunctional member of the Alkaholic Family I'm-I'm gonna have to stop for a minute, because...
