[B-Real]

WELLLLLLLLLLLLLL... here's a little story, I got to tell

About a thugged out homey, I know so well

It started way back, when I was a teen

In the hood, on the corner, slangin dope to fiends

Had the little stash that could serve your need

You can do what you want but I got weed for me

Ridin for my fam, tryin to hit a grand

CRASH unit on my ass, now I'm in demand

One lone-ly fami-ly I be

All in the hood, I got no-bo-dy

The sun is beatin down on my red dark hat

Pigs are roamin through the alley so I gotta toss my gat

Forgot about the sack, lookin for a place to hide

If they ask me for my name - fuck 'em, I'ma lie!"

[Chorus]

One O.G. gangsta I be

Busted in the hood, I got no more weed

Pigs are comin down on my gangsta stash

When they caught me with the weed, and the dope and hash

[B-Real]

He said a little somethin, I wasn't so impressed

No more runnin homey, now you're under arrest

The sack was in my hand, felt like a sack of bricks

I swore he couldn't see it when I threw it in my whip

He said he wanted some, I said I don't have none

Found it in the sun on the floor next to my gun

Next thing I saw was the gun to my head

Now the lead will make me dead, and yo this is what he said

[Sen Dog]

My name is Sgt. Slacker with a license to kill (uh-huh)

I think you know what time it is, it's time to get real (yea)

Now what do we have here? A banger and his peers

[B-Real]

He cuffed my hand you understand he threatened me with tears

Sorry motherfucker had his gun out with a grin

You think the story's over but it's ready to begin

[Chorus]

[Sen Dog]

Now I got your crack and most of your crew

You got a couple choices of what you can do

Better make the right decision if you know what I mean

You can do some time, or fork over your green

[B-Real]

I said I got no green he started lookin at me harder

I said I don't have nothin you can go fuck your daughter (WHAT?)

He hit me with the fist, he hit me with the gat

He put the night stick to my back, soooooooooooooo

I think I'm done, the pig's got my gun

It isn't lookin good, I got ink on my thumb

Another pig walked in, said he's playin games

He gave another look at me, found out my false name

[Chorus]

[B-Real]

Sittin there pissed as I dwell in my cell

The place smells like shit, in the County Jail

Homey lookin at me like he seen me before

He started throwin up a set, then he spit on the floor

I think ay-yeah yo, I know this kid

It's the same motherfucker cocktailed my crib

This dude said - get ready - pulled a shank on me

I said c'mon homey you a bit too sloppy

Fool tried to stab me, socked him in the eye

The guards yelled, "Give it up!" and let two fly

The guards said down and we hit the floor

If you make a move after you won't move no more

He said I think you once again best protect ya neck

I said eat a dick from me you don't get respect

I said you wanna come with it, any time and place

And I'll leave you like Pacino with a Scar-on-ya-face

They put him in the hole, and all the bullshit stopped

But when his boy had beef, yeah he got dropped

P.D. had no witness, D.A. dropped the load

I got probation for the gun and the dope, case closed

[Chorus - 2X]
