[Verse 1]Six in the morning, police at my doorFresh Adidas squeak across the bathroom floorOut my back window I make my escapeDidn't even get a chance to grab my old-school tapeMad with no music, but happy 'cause freeAnd the streets to a player is the place to beGot a knot in my pocket weighing at least a grandGold on my neck, my pistols close at handI'm a self-made monster of the city streetsRemotely controlled by hard hip-hop beatsBut just living in the city is a serious taskDidn't know what the cops wanted, didn't have time to ask[Hook]Word[Verse 2]Seen my homeboys cooling way, way outTold 'em 'bout my morning cold bugged 'em outShot a little dice till my knees got soreKicked around some stories 'bout the night beforePosse to the corner where the fly girls chillThrew action at some freaks until one bitch got illShe started acting silly, simply would not quitCalled us all punk pussies, said we all weren't shitAs we walked over to her, ho continued to speakSo we beat the bitch down in the goddamn streetBut just living in the city is a serious taskBitch didn't know what hit her, didn't have time to ask[Hook]Word[Verse 3]Continued clocking freaks with immense posteriorRolling in a Blazer with a Louis interiorSolid gold, the ride was rawBust a left turn, was on CrenshawSean-e-sean was the driver, known to give freaks hellHad a beeper goin' off like a high-school bellLooked in the mirror, what did we see?Fucking blue lights: L.A.P.DPigs searched our car, their day was madeFound an Uzi, forty-four and a hand grenadeThrew me in the county high-power blockNo freaks to see, no beats to rockDidn't want trouble, but the shit must flySquabbled with this sucker, shanked him in the eyeBut just living in the County is a serious taskNigga didn't know what happened, didn't have time to ask[Hook]Word[Verse 4]Back on the streets after five and a deuceSeven years later, but still had the juiceMy homeboy Hen Gee put me up the trackTold me E's rolling Villain, BJ's got the sackBruce is a giant, Nat C's clocking doughBe-Bop's a pimp, my old freak's a hoThe batter-rams rolling, rocks are the thingLife has no meaning and money is kingThen he looked at me slowly and Hen had to grinHe said, "Man, you out early, we thought you got ten"Opened his safe, kicked me down with cold cashKnew I would get busy, he didn't waste time to ask[Hook]Word[Verse 5]I bought a Benz with the money, the rest went on clothesWent to the strip, started pimping the hoesMy hair had grew long on my seven year stayAnd when I got it done, on my shoulders it layHard from the joint, but fly to my heartI didn't want trouble, but the shit had to startOut with my crew, some punks got loudShotgun blasts echoed through the crowdSix punks hit, two punks diedAll casualities was applied to their sideHuman lives has to pass just for talking much trashWe didn't know who they were, no one had time to ask[Hook]Word[Verse 6]Swat-team leader yelled, "Hit the floor"Reached in my pocket, pulled my forty-fourDove across the room, peeped out the windowTwenty cops jumped behind a PintoOut the backdoor like some damn track starsBroke down an alley, jumped into a carSuckers didn't even see us, they musta been blindBlack wire touched red, the car was mineWe hadn't done nothing but some suckers got shotHit the first turn, goddamn road blockBroke through the block and we did it fastCops woulda shot us on sight, they wouldn'ta took time to ask[Hook]Word[Verse 7]The rollers gave chase at a serious speedOne more conviction was all I needThis shit was for real, it was no "La-Di-Da-Di"'Cause the boys had to pin the shit on somebodyAnd me and my crew, we were known to get illWe carried heat for protection but not to killWe bust a corner doing sixty, one police car spunAnd all I was thinking was, murder oneBust a move into an alley and did it rightAnd me and my crew, we're gone into the nightBroke to my old lady's, who drew me a bathShe didn't even know what happened, didn't care, didn't ask[Hook]Word[Verse 8]We made love like crazy on top of the sheetsThis girlie was my worlie, a natural freakShe ran her tongue over each and every part of meThen she rocked my Amadeus while I watched TVA technician with a mission, that's what she wasIf there had been a crowd she would've got an applauseThis girl did everything on Earth to me that could be doneThen she backed off and teased me so I couldn't cumThen she cold got stupid, pushed me on the floorHad me begging to stop while I was screaming for moreAfter she waxed my body, she let me crashShe knew her loving was def, she didn't waste time to ask[Hook]Word[Verse 9]Up the next morning, feeling good as hellSleeping with a girlie sure beats a cellHit the boulevard in my AMGHo's catching whiplash,
