I live to hide my wicked truth
I don't suppose you know
I've hidden behind these fridged eyes
They filter what I know
It burdens me I'm never free
And peace I'll never know
I feel inside where nothing lies
And nothing left to show
So save me
I don't know, know myself
And I've been
On this isle alone, watch me own it
It goes down below the man I know
That lives inside of me
I live inside this blackened mind
And sun is what I see
I've found at last my cruel past
It's found the end in me
I'll reach inside just one more time
For the man I'll never be
So save me
I don't know, know myself
And I've been
On this isle alone, watch me own it
So crawl inside
I reach for the sign, I will need it
The gain was mine
To gather control, I will lost it
As your will is bent and broken
and every vision has been cast into the wind
as your courage crashes down before your eyes
don't lay down and die
'Cause I see in you
More than you'll ever know
And I ask you, "Why
You question the strength inside?"
And you need to know
How it feels to be alive
When every wound has been re-opened
And in this world of give and take, you must have faith
And the distance to your dreams stretch beyond reach
Don't lay down and die
Cause I see in you
More than you'll ever know
And I ask you, "Would
You question the strength inside?"
And you need to know
How it feels to be alive...
How it feels
How it feels to be alive...
How it feels
How it feels to be alive...
How it feels
How it feels to be alive...
Cause I see in you
More than you'll ever know
And I ask you, "Would
You question the strength inside?"
And you need to know
How it feels to be alive...
Drank so much last night
I think that I drowned
But now my cup is empty
No one has seen my will around
Now my heart is aching
Sometimes I fall asleep for days
But my bed is empty
I know I am too set in my ways
Tell all I am ok
So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day
Has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on
Flew so high last night
I think that I fell to the ground so heavy
Woke up to find this living hell
It used to be so easy
Hard to tell my nights now from my days
The curtains hide my feelings
Don't feel I have any right to pray
And they will find me someday, Someday
So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day
Has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on
So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day
Has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on
And whatever takes us anyway
Will be the same to drive us on
Remember to find a new day
So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day
Has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Remember to find a new way to carry on
So burn it down
Discover the dusk of your day
Has reached its dawn
So burn it down
Fight the fight alone
When the world is full of victims
Dims a fading light
In our souls
Leave the peace alone
Now we all are slowly changing
Dims a fading light
In our souls
In my opinion seeing is to know
The things we hold
Are always first to go
And who's to say
We won't end up alone
[CHORUS]
On broken wings I'm falling
And it won't be long
The skin on me is burning
By the fires of the sun
On skinned knees
I'm bleeding
And it won't be long
I've got to find that meaning
I'll search for so long
Cry ourselves to sleep
We will sleep alone forever
Will you lay me down
In the same place with all I love
Mend the broken homes
Care for them they are our brothers
Save the fading light in our souls
In my opinion seeing is to know
What you give
Will always carry you
And who's to say
We won't survive it too
[CHORUS]
Set a-free all
Relying on their will
To make me all that I am
And all that I'll be
Set a-free all
Will fall between the cracks
With memories of all that I am
And I'll that I'll be
Stuck in the middle
I burrow inside
Back to the cradle
Away from the burdens
Of all my crimes
Before it's fatal
The past has found me
The truth come out
Always remember
With no place to fall
But straight down
I must surrender
Well it seems I've finally
Thought of everything
I want to love
I want to feel
Find peace
Find the real
There's a face I put on
All my life
The face of an angel
I look in the mirror
Only to find
The face of a stranger
And all that I've taken
I hunger for more
Cause I'm selfish
And all I'm left with
Is a crown of thorns
And I'm helpless
Well it seems I've finally
Thought of everything
I want to love
I want to feel
Find peace
Find the real
I'll trade these lies for something right
I will kill what hurts with something pure
I will be redeemed so I can breathe again
Well it seems I've finally
Thought of everything
I want to love
I want to feel
Find peace
Find the real
Watch your words
Or your words might drown you
And cure my wounds
And the light will blind you
To truly see well
You must have faith
Oh the righteous they can't wait
A saving grace
That we all know
Let us pray
Let us hold on
[CHORUS]
I can't breathe
I prefer to find a ceiling
To the hate of mine
I can't win
I can fight no more
I am drowning
And I'm sick inside
Push no more
And the day will find you
Speak no truth
And your ways will end you
It's alright
And you must move on
Though the damage
Has been done
Cherish the life
And the ones you hold
Can you change
Can you go on
[CHORUS]
To truly see well
You must have faith
Oh the righteous they can't wait
A saving grace
That we all know
Let us pray
Let us hold on
Endless day
We search for what we hold inside
So hard to find
Luck turns
Will the fallen ever reach within
And rise again
[CHORUS]
For the rest of my life
I will find the answers
That were always here
I will find the meaning this time
I will fight the end
Till the end is here
Wasted time
With words that seem to break our will
They blind us still
Without a care
They tarnish what we hold so dear
What was once so clear
Looking back I clearly see
What it is that's killing me
Through the eyes of one I know
I see a vision once let go
I had it all
Constantly it burdens me
Hard to trust and can't believe
Lost the faith and lost the love
When the day is done
Will they open their eyes
And realize we are one
On and on we stand alone
Until our day has come
When they open their eyes
And realize we are one
I love the way I feel today
But how I know the sun will fade
Darker days seem to be
What will always live in me
But still I run
It's hard to walk this path alone
Hard to know which way to go
Will I ever save this day
Will it ever change
Will they open their eyes
And realize we are one
Still today we carry on
I know our day will come
When they open their eyes
And realize we are one
Will they open their eyes
And realize we are one
(its hard to walk this path alone
hard to know which way to go)
Will they open their eyes
and realize we are one
(lost the faith and lost the love when the day is done)
Will they open their eyes
[Verse: A.L.T.]
What you gonna do when you get out of jail
Head to your homie's house, yo, it never fails
Now you at a party with ya other homies, chillin'
This gun's for lovin' and this gun's for killin'
He got a .38, you know, a nickel plated raven
He'll see you to the grave if you be misbehavin'
Don't disrespect the neighborhood cause homie don't play
He just did six in the pen the hard way
Don't {fuck} with 'em, he's from the old school
Packin' a tool
In a circle smokin' a super pool
Kickin' a butt out the big tall cans
Sportin' [? ] Dickies and some down black Vans
His heina's actin' up, and if she dump him, then he'll choke her
A tat on his back, it says "Mi vida loca"
Now if you watch Scarface cause you think he's the greatest
The homeboys come over to fill you in
On the latest
Smokey got fat
Shorty got a gat
Goofy got cracked with the baseball bat
But we got revenge on them fools last month
Blasted on the party with the seven shot pump
Shorty shot first three times with the cuete
Now he's up in Wayside, holmes, doing siete
And he can't even make bail
What you gonna do when you get out of jail
[Outro: Baka Boyz {Tom Tom Club}]
What ya gonna do, holmes, what ya gonna do
{"I'm gonna have some fun"}
What ya gonna do, holmes, what ya gonna do
[ VERSE 1 ]
I was at the bar with my drinking team
And it was me, Jack Daniels and my homie Jim Beam
We were kinda blizzed and we were tryin to behave, yo
When in walked a soldier, he was from the Fuzzy Navel
We were fallin, stumblin, crawlin
In came the police, Captain Tom Collins
And the vato said, 'Freeze!' (Freeze!)
He said, 'Hands in the air and hand over your keys'
Now we did, and that was kinda simple
Now here came Margarita and her friend Shirley Temple
I asked my friend 'bout Margarita
He said that Shirley was a virgin and I wouldn't wanna meet her
So I talked to Margarita, cause, yo, she was flyer
I took her to the couch, cause I wanted to srew-drive her
Now I'm not one for a speech
But there was plenty of Tequila and Sex on the Beach
Y'all
Tequila
[ *horn section plays the 'Tequila' theme* ]
T-T-T-Tequila
Yeah
Alright
Come on
[ crowd ]
TEQUILA!
[ VERSE 2 ]
Here we go again and I'm not fussin
See, I'm a French Mexican but I kick it with White Russians
At the bar with the drink in my hand
In walked José Cuevo, it was Margarita's man
I talked to the Wise Man, cause yo, he's distinguished
His name is St. Ides and he spoke in Olde English
He said, 'You better think fast
Cause José is kinda crazy and I heard he shot blast'
He gave me some advice and it went like this, yo
'Catch the Nighttrain and head up to 'Cisco'
I didn't wanna stick around
I caught the 1(:)51 to New York, the Greyhound
Now I'm at the Red Zone, everybody stylin
Showbiz was sippin Ice Teas on Long Island
I blacked out, the party came to a halt
Cause I was drinkin the Tequila with the lemon and salt
Y'all
Tequila
[ *horn section plays the 'Tequila' theme* ]
T-T-T-Tequila
Yeah
Alright
[ crowd ]
TEQUILA!
[ VERSE 3 ]
I woke up in the morning and felt like a zombie
The Tequila Gold Label had bombed me
You see, I woke up late, I wasn't feelin so great
And Mike said, 'There's a Bacardi party startin at 8'
Yo, we walked in the party and started playin our games
We played tops, ??? and quarters with Bartles & Jaymes
Here came Shirley Temple and they told me to chill
Because the Mickey Brothers took her up to Strawberry Hill
They took her $1000 mink and she could barely think
Cause the Tequila that she drank had her tickled pink
Now the music came on and I rocked the instrumental
There's a groupie named Mai Tai, a fly oriental
A groupie is a girl that jocks
She wore a def Black Velvet and drank Scotch on the rocks
We had a Fake Marriage, now here's the Honeymoon
Yo, it's on, Vagabond at the Blue Lagoon
Now everybody take a couple of words from the wise
A girlie and a bottle - Tequila Sunrise
Tequila
[ *horn section plays the 'Tequila' theme* ]
Yeah
Alright
Come on
[ crowd ]
I am not alone
I live with the memories regret is my home
This is my true freedom
Express all the feelings of what I've become
I watch the rising sun
I hope I find some peace today
[CHORUS]
It seems I've gone away
It seems I've lost myself
It seems really lost my way
It seems I've lost myself
It seems I've
Shed my skin
Are you ready for me
Or purge my love
Are you ready for me
A bitter sinking feeling
Awake to the fact there's no going back
To the world in which I was living
I'm searching for something but found less than nothing
I watch the rising sun
I hope I find some peace today
[CHORUS]
Are you ready for me
Or purge my love
Are you ready for me
Oh 'cause I'm dying to feel
What I have lost
Oh and what I was
All my life I've waited
Endless days have taken
Taken what made me free
Years have gone
I'm broken
Left the past unspoken
Those years
Oh they haunt me still
Shed my skin
Are you ready for me
Or purge my love
Are you ready for me
[Verse One]
Knock, Knock honey I'm home
Got the hun spoke, crome on the brome
I'm zipping chronic getting stoned
Got Jenny on the phone
And there's many that want condomed
A lady emcee
Getting down with A.L.T.
I want them fellas to do the fist
Or I'll do the chronic missed
Got some scars on my knuckles, and a rolex on my wrist
And I'm pissed
I'm known up this mothafucking tech
Full of sweat, I passed you with this fucking sound effect
If you figured out
See? I zero you out
And if you play or hate the click, well nigga you out
I got this hip-hop shit
About to throw but with a tight whip
And I can keep my coof for a minute but I might trip
And I blast just two
Run up to the old school
It's J.V. and A.L.T. whoodie hoo!!
[chorus x5]
What you wanna do?
What you wanna do?
Imma represent the brown
And tell them fuck you
[Verse 2: J.V.]
Night, bikini queen, platinum crown
Bow them thrown
Kickin rhymes hard as stone
Whoping ass, napping bones
Flipping rhymes to represent
Till your speakers catch a dense
Breaking hard legs 'till I shake the confidence
It's only common sense
You have to face the consequence
If you man enough to step to the bitch you off against
No coencidence I'm on the ride but you collapsed
Cleaning to your rep. banging from my Penny Strepped
Giving girls some debt about shake this sucker loose
I slap handicapping and watching bet for more abuse
Excuse the hushed behavior but i just don't give a damn
So I'm pissed some people lost soul to remember who I am
Baby ain't you herbed we be fucking up your plan
My name and mama would I put to squeeze on any man
[chorus x5]
What you wanna do?
What you wanna do?
Imma represent the brown
And tell them fuck you
[Verse 3: J.V.]
Time for pussy freaking putting it down for nine nine
Do our time mothafuker is a thin line
Another sucker blind
Then I make him see the light
I'm feeling kind of thuggish, don't make me pick a fight
I rumble with dudes, and chicken heads are like
"Don't play me with a weak chick" sucker am i?
As my right hand to flip start dumping
A.L.T. heat them up with a little bit of something
[A.L.T.]
I show him skill
On the way from Cypress Hill
To Brazil
I need to chill
I think I popped a pill on a reel
Mellow out
Walk around
With my head in the clouds
I cause riets and then the cops fail off the crowds
I see some fists up in the air and the colors are brown
Imma piss up on the stage as a caleno and clown
What the fuck you think you doing if you chicano and down
Imma tell them fuck you and represent the brown
[chorus x5]
What you wanna do?
What you wanna do?
Imma represent the brown
[A.L.T.:]

[Bigg Robb]
Wait a minute
Check this out
Let me tell you how the real players are
[Sample:]
"The question still remains, where is the money"
[A.L.T.:]
Yo man
Check this out
[Verse 1:]
I got pull like a trailer
I cuss like a sailor
I shop at the swap meet, never had a tailor
I don't really care
I'm broke as a joke
Yeah, I had a single, but the record didn't smoke
I drive a Toyota, it's older than Yoda
Mona wanna loan her, but I already told her
That I don't have a penny
I'm short of a nickle
Tried to buy a burger, but I only got a pickle
A brand new Pinto, only in dreams
I'm talkin' secondhand jeans and refried beans
But A.L.T. treats ya
Good money meets ya
I'll offer you a soda and a piece of frozen pizza
Girls wanna mingle
My pockets only jingle
Damn, I'm getting hungrier, so please buy the single
Don't ask for a nickle
And please take a hint
If you ain't got dollars
Then you ain't got sense
[Hook: Ice Cube - Sample]
[scratching]
"Dollars and cents"
"Dollars and cents"
"Trying to get her hands on some doll-"
"Dollars and cents"
[Verse 2:]
Rhymin' up a funky rhyme and lyrics, yep, I got 'em
Plus I got sober, there's a hole in the bottom
Peeped out, and scoped out, the hons when I was little
Couldn't afford a guitar
I had to learn to fiddle
That was never cool, and all the honeys never liked it
They were always on the A.L.-I-will-take-a-hike tip
I love Italian food
The noodles
Alfredo
My spaghetti's good, but yo, it doesn't have tomato
Tomato
Tamoto
I'm a desperado
Mexicans win, but this one can't afford the lotto
A knock at my door
I open, it slowly
Jevohas, leave me alone, because my socks are really holy
If I get a crowd, yo, I try my best to rock 'em
I got some clever beats, and when I get a chance, I knock 'em
Don't ask for a penny
And please take a hint
If you ain't got dollars
Then you ain't got sense
[Hook]
[Verse 3:]
I got some Chuck Taylors, so my shoes, they always stand out
I doesn't have a penny, but I won't accept a handout
Never had a radio, I had to stick to hummin'
The ice cream man is comin'
Her time is always out, so she always thought I planned it
Other kids got some, but I was empty-handed
I live with my parents
My room is always dirty
Mom said I can stay
But only til I'm thirty
I never had no money, but it really doesn't matter
If my record sales
Then I'll be livin' phatter
There a lot of people, so be cool and take a hint
If you ain't got dollars
I've been defeated and brought down
Dropped to my knees when hope ran out
The time has come to change my ways
On this day I see clearly everything has come to life
A bitter place and a broken dream
And we'll leave it all, leave it all behind
I'll never long for what might have been
Regret won't waste my life again
I won't look back
I'll fight to remain:
On this day I see clearly everything has come to life
A bitter place and a broken dream
And we'll leave it all, leave it all behind
On this day its so real to me
Everything has come to life
Another chance to chase a dream
Another chance to feel
Chance to feel alive
Fear will kill me, all I could be
Lift these sorrows
Let me breathe, could you set me free
Could you set me free
On this day I see clearly everything has come to life
A bitter place and a broken dream
And we'll leave it all behind
On this day its so real to me
Everything has come to life
Another chance to chase a dream
Another chance to feel
Thanks for all you've done
I've missed you for so long
I can't believe you're gone
You still live in me
I feel you in the wind
You guide me constantly
I've never knew what it was to be alone, no
Cause you were always there for me
You were always there waiting
And ill come home and I miss your face so
Smiling down on me
I close my eyes to see
And I know, you're a part of me
And it's your song that sets me free
I sing it while I feel I can't hold on
I sing tonight cause it comforts me
I carry the things that remind me of you
In loving memory of
The one that was so true
Your were as kind as you could be
And even though you're gone
You still mean the world to me
I've never knew what it was to be alone, no
Cause you were always there for me
You were always there waiting
But now I come home and it's not the same, no
It feels empty and alone
I can't believe you're gone
And I know, you're a part of me
And it's your song that sets me free
I sing it while I feel I can't hold on
I sing tonight cause it comforts me
I'm glad he set you free from sorrow
I'll still love you more tomorrow
And you will be here with me still
And what you did you did with feeling
And You always found the meaning
And you always will
And you always will
And you always will
Ooo's
And I know, you're a part of me
And it's your song that sets me free
I sing it while I feel I can't hold on
[A.L.T.:]
Damn man, what's up with this, no microphone
Headphones
I'm a rock this anyway, so check this out
Yeah
And I do it like this
[Verse:]
I was drinking a forty on my boat, out at sea
When this big ol' wave, holmes, it came and tipped me
Then I started sinkin'
And that got me to thinkin'
Maybe I be treading water if I wasn't drinkin'
Now I'm at the bottom
I might as well chill
I kicked it with The Little Mermaid cause that girl was I'll
The mermaid had a ring, but I'm down with O.P.P.
Her husband Charlie is a punk, he's the Chicken Of The Sea
I went to see a rap show, I thought was a trio
A cod
A shark, and yo
There was an eel
The eel was kind of dope, but I knew he was a smoker
He bought a sack of barracuda buddha from a chick named
Orca
A big fat chick named Orca
Jaws was hangin' out, but yo, I think he's trying to pork her
Like I said, she was a skeezer
She did the whole crew
Now here swam a very, very jealous Shamoo
He was huge, and I ain't lyin'
The vatos started cryin'
Better break out cause harpoons'll be flyin'
Wouldn't you shoot if someone did your money dipper
So then
I took a ride on the back of Flipper
Let's take a trip to the zoo
I met a kangaroo who's the head of the hip hop crew
I met a cat named Mellow
A goose named Pillow
A pig named Gates, and a funky armadillo
The keeper came around
And homie started dissin' me
Tony, he's a Tiger, he's a immigrant from Sicily
Slipped homeboy a C-note
Cause Tony's got the money
His heina's name's Hyena, and she thought that she was funny
Roger Rabbit is a DJ
Cause homie got the cuts
Chip N' Dale is instituted
Because they see the nuts
A snake named Thriller
A duck named Vanilla
A Bear named Yogi, and George is a gorilla
The snake had a sack, and he wanted us to try it
George, yo, he's Curious
Homie thought he try it
Yogi had the joint
He put it to his mouth
But Smokey is a Bear, he came and made us put it out
Tarzan is a man
And Henry had a hippo
A rhino who's a whino, so the homie sips the ripple
Now I'm a take the time and stop the rhymin' in the skit
Yeah
It's a trip

(Verse 1)
I take you back
In my past, I used to live life fast
And yo
It wasn't shit to let the .38 blast
I had it goin'
On, with the bitches and hoes, too
Yo, come to think about it, so did my whole crew
We bumped the old school jams from the East Coast
We was the baddest Mexicans outta East Los
Back in the days, many crews got hushed
It seems
Every night, me and my homies got
Rushed
We never back down, even if we got beat down
We came back next week to the same town
And we was ready for 'em
But they still figure
That they could do us
So tiny pulled a steel trigger
I had a .38 special, not a A.K.
And to the ones in which we sing,
We are honored you let us in
I remember the thoughts of many things,
Of the glory that you bring
I was never the right one to dare to dream,
It's funny what this life has done to me now
You were always the only,
To help me see there was a road I must find,
A road that was mine
But I'm down to my last,
I'm standing here alone
Looking back, on it all
But I'm down to my last,
I'm ready but I'm wrong,
And I'm blind to it all
And to the world to which we sing,
Want to try to do us in
I remember your name and I know your face
Can't forgive and can't erase
I was never the right one
To bear the weight of something fueled by words
I'd learn to hate
You were always the only
To help me see that to love is to shine
In your world, blind
But I'm down to my last
I'm standing here alone
Looking back on it all
But I'm down to my last
I'm ready but I'm wrong
And I'm right to it all
[solo]
But I'm down to my last
Well I'm ready but I'm wrong,
And I'm scared of it all
But I'm down to my last
I'm ready but I'm wrong
And I'm blind to it all
But I'm down to my last
And I'm ready but I'm wrong
[Tony G. (George Bush):]
"I will use whatever force is necessary
To restore order
What is going on in L.A. must and will stop
As your president
I guarantee it
This violence will end"
[Verse 1: A.L.T.]
The gasoline can, the gasoline man
Is comin' to town, cause I got a tan
He's puttin' a cross in the middle of my lawn
Lightin' it up like {fuckin'} [? ]
Yo, is this a game
Who gets the blames
When you see a circle of Christ up in flames
My family cries
I cover my daughter's eyes
Hang my head low, but I'm not suprised
I gotta get away from the drama
See, my child's only three, can she handle the drama
A truck drives away
The screech of a tire
A tear in my wife's eye, plus
Reflection of a cross on fire
But I
Admire how she handles what happenin'
All because my first {fuckin'} album went platinum
Had to buy a big white house with a big green metal
Should've kept my Mexican ass in the ghetto
I speak to the people
I keep it to the streets
But this is what happens
Inbetween the sheets
[Verse 2:]
Three hitchhikers in the heart of Mississippi
Two black men and a friend who's a hippie
When up rolled a pent-up truck
With three white boys and they drunk as {fuck}
One black man's way, he gave a trial on hold
But this killer {motherfucker} had a nylon rope
So he ran like a raccoon
And got chased by a platoon
When they caught him, they hit 'em and they beat 'em down
Just because his skin was too brown
Wanna see my face, you nigga, you spook
It was President Bush, Daryl Gates and David Duke
They stood him on a milk crate
Put a noose on his neck and kicked it
It's too late
This is more than rhymes on beats
This is what happens
Inbetween the sheets
[A.L.T.:]
I'm on a midnight train and I'm headed for her chocha
The same type of {shit} that I already told ya
I seen a brother get beat by five cops
And this one-way train wasn't makin' no stops
Stop
Damn
Damn, stop
[Verse 3:]
I couldn't take it
Though I was goin' insane
I stood up and scream
"STOP THE TRAIN! "
Jumped off the train, ran a half mile back
With this brother of color, and he was still gettin' jacked
Five went the pace, caught a beatdown too
I guess what they say about the south is true
I grabbed a gun from one of the police
The {motherfuckin'} cop got shot with his own piece
This is more than rhymes on beats
Now I'm a John Doe
Verse: 1
I once knew a bitch named Mercedes Benz
Her and Lexus wanted to sex me and all my friends
Damb, You want it, You got it Toyota
I gave Impala a holla because he’s got the Mota
about a pound and so we rolled slow
plus I kept my Eyes out for Five Point O
We got to the pad about MR2,
I said I’ve never met a Jetta that was fly as you
Lexus, She was heavy as a Chevy,but it aint no thang
because we gang bang, rode ‘em like a Mustang
and I’m thinking that you got my point, I told Impala
to roll up a Corrola Joint, and then I passed out
She said I doesn’t want to trouble you
but BMW is home now,and so you asked out
and my heart started pounding I’m out the back window
Peace homegirls but I’m Audi 5000
Chorus: x4
dropped monte carlos, L’ Dogs(???)and Caddy Coupes
Verse: 2
I got a friend named Alfa Romero
Who rolled a Fiero with a girl named Camaro
and he calls her his Sidekick
but the bitch is so fly that he gotta have a big dick
we all jetted in the Jetta
then we got harrassed by a cop named Berreta
He pulled us ova in a fucked up Nova
then we saw my homie roll right by his name is Range Rover
He swoop on the Trooper, He’s tight with the mob
and then he made the One-Time stop
Peace homie thanks and I’ll see ya
then I got a page from my bitch Carmen Gia
“Come and pick me up” so, I go through the city
I’m ‘bout to get some ass and a hole lot of tittie
I got to her pad,and Yo!,I started pounding
I’d like to tell you more homeboy but I’m Audi 5000.
Chorus: x4
I partied with this oriental girl named Hundai
Who kicks it with this japanese bitch they call Samurai
I headed to the liquor store, Word!
I got a fith of Surburban and some Thunderbird
I said I’ll be right back, then I saw a friend who’s a pimp
big and black we called him Caddilac
just to tease I told my nigga freeze
He drove a Lamborghini that cost 300 Z’s
and lets jet out to club pantera
Hatchbacks kicking it and so was Fiera
and it sounded like a switch,
I got to the club and met a snobby ass bitch
Who said I was the voice she said I was the choice
and could I please give a little bit to Ms. Royce Royce
silk sheets and my hips they were pounding
then I got the fuck out of Dodge, ‘Cause I was Audi 5000
Chorus: x6
Verse: 1
17 shots in my clip
I’m rolling through my hood muthafuckas dont trip
Then I saw the Liquor Store where they shot lil’ Joe,
hanging out the window, puffin’ on some Indo.
The owners on his knees and he’s out in the front
Cleaning up the blood from lil’ Joe, I dropped my blunt.
All Joe wanted was a 6-pack of Bud, but the owners fingers
itched
Now my homies in the Mud.
I pulled out my nine, without even thinking.
Plus I was high as a kite and I’ve been drinking.
Only three blocks from the police station
but I pulled the trigger three times no hesitation.
As I sped away I put the Nine at my hip
I only got 14 shots in my clip, Now.
The cops was on my ass in ‘Bout a minute
It’s all about a foot game I knows I’m gonna win it.
I’m hopping over walls, dodging little dogs
Then I got ghost like a phantom in the fog
I’m hiding in the bushes, Shooting at the coppers
Then I took five shots, I’m hiding from the lights on the
choppers.
and I know I’m facing death, I made it to my hina’s pad nine
shots left.
Chorus: x2
It’s a trip, betta not slip
just a little story about a gloc 9 clip
Verse: 2
I’m the type of Vato that never had a good day
I gotta watch my back when I creep through my hood, ey!
I woke up in the morning, I’m next to my hina
Baby wake up Yo!, and then I got behind her
You should of seen that ass, I was just about to pound it
Then I heard the cops say 'We got the place surrounded'
'Come out with your hands up son'
Then I broke the window with the butt of my gun.
I fired at the cops (blast, blast,... blast, blast)
I used up four of my shots
I got the gloc 17 with the hollow points
fuck these mutha fuckas so, I spark me up a joint
I only got five shots,... 25 cops
The man with the mega-phone resembles my pops
So I, Took him out with a shot to the chest
Stupid muthafucka forgot his vest
Oh, Shit
I better not slip, I only got four shots left in my clip,
The SWAT team came I better think fast
Here comes the tear gas thats my ass
I’m out the back I almost made it
but the cops black German shepherd means I’m faded
Then I had to think of my lucky # 7
I shot him three times and sent his ass to doggy heaven
Yo!, here come the pigs think quick
I pointed my nine but the gat went click
Then I felt my body get num,and it’s a trip
Just a little story about a gloc nine clip.
