Yeah 1996
|
Coolio with the flow
|
Rated R superstar
|
LV that's right
|
|
Mossberg Smith & Wesson
|
Forty-five let me tell you how I learned my lesson
|
House party in the hood at some niggas I don't know
|
But I had to go they had a house full of hos
|
I stepped into that party with my nigga high off that head
|
The hos is looking good so we try to make a friend for night
|
Let's get it right let's get it straight
|
But now these punkass niggas in the party want to play a hate
|
I'd bust a cap to save a rat so what's up with that
|
It's 1996 so these bustas get no kinda of doubt
|
Like American Express here we go again
|
I never leave home without it so don't even think about it
|
Just let me leave and I won't have to make you bleed
|
But if you make an offensive move then I'm gonna have to show a groove
|
Back up off let's keep it soft
|
Don't make me have to show you who these 16 bosses be
|
|
This really ain't me no more
|
These streets won't let me go
|
I can't escape this life
|
That they got me trapped inside
|
This really ain't me no more
|
These streets won't let me go
|
I can't escape this life
|
That they got me trapped inside
|
|
Way back in the days we dudes don't forget a name
|
Now everybody wants the fame but things change ain't the same
|
All these sucker set-trippin killin for no reason
|
That's why I never leave the house without my nina
|
I love my baby carry my baby whereever I go
|
For these suckers get in a twist they say I beat their pimpin
|
Stop wishin you was in my shoes
|
And learn to be yourself stop acting like somebody else
|
It's ninety-six and most of the homeys thinking of six feet
|
The six I found out if you wear partners where the friends go
|
Every week you don't see me I gotta put at work
|
I guess the shit don't stop till my gaskets drop
|
Stop hating my life and get your own
|
Be true to this game or this game will do you cold
|
Everywhere I go I got my back
|
I hate to do my all black but I must stay strapped
|
|
This really ain't me no more
|
These streets won't let me go
|
I can't escape this life
|
That they got me trapped inside
|
This really ain't me no more
|
These streets won't let me go
|
I can't escape this life
|
That they got me trapped inside
|
|
No no oooo I can't escape this life
|
|
I been trying to live in piece but these fools won't cease
|
They insist with their bullshit so I got a full clip
|
Chitty-chitty bang-bang doin it's a new thing
|
One shot from a Jake .38 can make your brain ache
|
I'm the kinda nigga that don't believe in frontin'
|
But if you run up on me trippin you best believe I'm dumpin'
|
I got bills to pay and kids to raise
|
And a whole generation of lost niggas to save
|
So I ain't got time for that yip yap
|
If you start some static I'm gonna have to blow your mind back
|
Believe that nigga daisy if you do it's true
|
Fuck with Coo you get done that's how we do it to it
|
Don't start no shit and it won't be none son
|
But if you do I'm going for my gun
|
Like Doc Holliday a nigga ain't scary
|
So if you want to trip then I'll be your huckleberry
|
|
This really ain't me no more
|
These streets won't let me go
|
I can't escape this life
|
That they got me trapped inside
|
This really ain't me no more
|
These streets won't let me go
|
I can't escape this life
|
That they got me trapped inside
|
|
This really ain't me no more
|
These streets won't let me go
|
I can't escape this life
|
That they got me trapped inside
|
This really really really ain't me
|
But the streets won't let me go
|
I can't escape this life
|
That they got me trapped inside
|
