I just want everybody to be clear Of takin' place right now It's not an introduction, it's like a beginning It's the calm before the storm I you can sorta call it, the rebirth
Or the birth period, the growth For all my real niggaz, real people in It's never one-dimensional, it goes out to If you can though, just take some time out to it
For all my mans that died, with at they side Plans just to ride, gun jammed when he Ballers who never made it out the Cats who owed, but never made it out the
If they offered you please and you went to with it My dawgs time 'cause you got caught with it Or if you need cheddar, blast heat And run the cops 'cause you know the streets better
Dope niggaz who rich they know connects Or dope who spit but got no connects If you pitch to pay rent, but get no Life in the state pen but get no
Fend for yourself you ain't got no boys Ride or die, really you got no choice If your alibi's straight when wanted on the stand Soldiers that take they football like a man
O-Z 'cause your product rich there Hood know you snitch but you gotta live You held your man shot, you know where it hit him And you tryin' to buy guns, you don't know to get 'em
If you strapped in the streets with your all black Young G's gotta see they moms on crack Pop can't be found, me down When you the oldest out of five, the family down
If you a body and your wiz hid you out If you slept in the park when kicked you out Or if you die, you gon' leave with a slug your big bro, but he was a thug
If you squeeze your leather 'cause it never hurt Street cats that never work it never worked Or if you got your shit snatched, gripped, clipped the Too small for the kickback, but gotta get shit back
Killed niggaz playin', but you was only twenty flat as your only option Calm in the jungle in between the If you high on parole and gotta your system
If you told 'em to stop, soon you'll lose it Pull up your pants leg, bullet to prove it Or if you grabbed the liquor, it hard If they on you but you follow the car
clip cause your foes is lurkin' or the D's at your door With a picture, "Do you know person?" If you broke, but forced into extortin' 'Cause your girl and she don't want a abortion
Got charged before, strap a gun Took the state's lawyer, but you won Stand up beat the odds by far recognize real, R.R.R.
Don't mistake a up nucca, for what? For a stand up nucca, I If you a stand up nucca, then stand up nucca, R.R.R.
Basically, that's it Hope you get a better understanding And roll with me, get into it
