(Chorus)✦
I'mma✦ straight up G, let's not pretend✦
Dedicated✦ to, all of my friends
On the East and the West Coast
Gotta✦ let this drama✦ go
(Ice-T)✦
Ok, let me break it down, they got the one strike law
You go in, you reach the other✦ two before✦ you know
What happen✦ to you - game's✦ over✦ dude
On the next page, they got power✦ in effect
While you two rednecks waitin'✦ to see which one of us
Kills the next brother✦ next
Think about✦ it too long'll make you sick
Believe me the last thing they wanna✦ see is us risin'✦
Economically,✦ astronomically✦ it could happen✦ homie - follow✦ me
Hip-hop's the black goal - mind and soul
Refined as we roll, another✦ ghetto✦ story✦ is told
I stopped flippin'✦ ki's in eighty✦ three
They need a time machine to carcerate✦ me
I'm square as a pool table, twice as green, know what I mean?
Flippin'✦ from heat, the legal✦ green, the hip-hop✦ scene
Beef, the only✦ beef I got is the steak
I'm tryin' to eat from the players elite✦
East, West, North, South, Moon, Star
I'm gonna✦ ball wherever the chips are
I hope y'all players listen,✦ ain't out there hatin'✦ and dissin'✦
Y'all know the game is to be sold and not told
I should be takin'✦ a collection,✦ this time I'll make an exception✦
I've just been here for the start of this
I gotta✦ come from the heart for this
(Chorus)✦
I'mma✦ straight up G, let's not pretend✦
Dedicated✦ to, all of my friends
On the East and the West Coast
Gotta✦ let this drama✦ go
(Ice-T)✦
Some nights I lay awake✦ tryin' to analyse
And anticipate✦ the moves✦ of the fakes✦
Wonder✦ if the cancers' in too deep - can't sleep
Tryin' to diagnose the poison✦ that's increased
Injected into✦ a pure hustle born on city✦ streak
Migranes fill my brain as I reach toward✦ the realm of the insane✦
Wishin'✦ and prayin' that another✦ brother✦ gets
To live the life that I got to play in
Tryin' to represent to the fullest
I gotta✦ come hard y'all, no time to pull it
Y'all fools think illin'✦ and tearin'✦ up
Hip-hop✦ is the thing to do G?
I'm paid I don't need rap no more fool I make a movie
Y'all tryin' to lose me
And to y'all suckers with your afrobatic, player hatin'✦ tatics
Tryin' to jump over✦ the bree and plannin' and hustlin'
I've been corporatin' to this music over✦ these years
Y'all will fall victim to your own lies and the P.I
Will continue to rise, over✦ your eyes kid
This games'✦ immaculate,✦ dramas' irrelevant - stay sucker✦ reppellin'
Invent, incoporate,✦ parlay,✦ play
And I got no reason✦ to lie to you
(Chorus)✦
I'mma✦ straight up G, let's not pretend✦
Dedicated✦ to, all of my friends
On the East and the West Coast
Gotta✦ let this drama✦ go
I'mma✦ straight up G, let's not pretend✦
Dedicated✦ to, all of my friends
On the East and the West Coast
Gotta✦ let this drama✦ go
