Meet Eddie, twenty-three years old
Fed up with life and the way things are going
He decides to rob a liquor store
(I can't take this no more, I can't take it no more homes)
But on his way in, he has a sudden change of heart
And suddenly, his conscience comes into play
Alright, stop! (Huh?)
Now before you walk in the door of this liquor store
And try to get money out the drawer
You better think of the consequence (But who are you?)
I'm your motherfucking conscience
That's nonsense!
Go in and gaffle the money and run to one of your aunt's cribs
And borrow a damn dress, and one of her blonde wigs
Tell her you need a place to stay
You'll be safe for days if you shave your legs with an aged razor blade
Yeah but if it all goes through like it's supposed to
The whole neighbourhood knows you and they'll expose you
Think about it before you walk in the door first
Look at the store clerk, she's older than George Burns
Funk that! Do that! Hit that lick!
Can you afford to blow this pit? Are you that rich?
Why you care if you scare her to death? Are you that chick?
Do you really think she gives a fuck you have kids?
Man, don't do it, it's not worth it to risk it! (You're right!)
Not over this list
Stop!
Drop the biscuit (I will!)
Don't even listen to Slim yo, he's bad for you
You know what Dre? I don't like your attitude!
These voices, these voices!
I hear them (hear them, hear them, hear them)!
I'll follow!
I'll follow!
I'll follow!
I'll follow all these voices!
Meet Stan, twenty-one years old
After meeting a young girl at a rave party
Things start getting hot and heavy in an upstairs bedroom
Once again, his conscience comes into play
Now listen to me, while you're kissin' her cheek
And smearin' her lipstick, I slipped this in her drink
Now all you gotta do is nibble on this little chicken's earlobe!
Yo! This girl's only fifteen years old
How could you take advantage of her?
She's passed out!
It's easy, just cut these lights out!
That's how!
Then pick this chicken up
Get her off Brad's couch
And leave her on the front porch
At her mum and dad's house!
Man, ain't you ever seen that one movie Kids?
No, but I seen the porno with SunDoobiest!
Do you wanna get hauled off to jail?
Funk that, drop her off, ring the door bell then bail
These voices, these voices!
I hear them (hear them, hear them, hear them)!
I'll follow!
I'll follow!
I'll follow!
I'll follow all these voices!
Meet Grady, a twenty-nine year old construction worker
After coming home from a hard day's work
He walks in the door of his trailer park home
To find his wife in bed with another man
Alright calm down, relax, start breathin'
Start breathin'?!
Man, you just caught your wife cheatin'!
While you at work she's with some dude tryin' to get off?!
Forget gettin' divorced!
Cut this chicken's head off!
Wait! What if there's a good explanation for this?
What? She tripped? Fell? Landed on his shit?!
Alright Shady, maybe he's right Grady
But think about the baby before you get all crazy
Okay! Thought about it, still wanna grab her?
Kick her out the house, get your daughter and kidnap her?
That's what I did, be smart, don't be a retard
You gonna take advice from somebody who slapped Dee Barnes?
What'chu say?
What's wrong? Didn't think I'd remember?
I'ma kill you motherfucker!
Uhhh-aahh! Temper temper!
Mr Dre? Mr NWA.?
Mr AK comin' straight outta Compton y'all better make way?
How in the hell you gonna tell this man not to be violent?
'Cause he don't need to go the same route that I went
Been there, done that
Aw fuck it
What am I sayin? Do 'em both Grady, where's your gun at?
