Man get yo punk ass down

Come on let's go let's go, shots, we out

Fuck all y'all homeboys, yeah that's what I said

[Kurupt]

All up in the shadows with calico's in the fo'

Dippin' in my lo-lo I'm a mutha fucking fool

G stands for gangsta first and foremost

Posting with my pistols, holding my pose

MC dipping not giving a fuck

Kurupt slide, Daz roll I'm shotgun in the ride

Like nigga did you see that motherfucker over there?

The first motherfucker with his hood in the air

Round up the homies in the park

12 double-O, afternoon check the homies heart

Shit's about to spark, thunderdome popping off

When you checking niggas heart they start dropping off

I'm a gangsta a gangsta, a bitch is a bitch

Change up and switch fuck around and then snitch

Walk, gangstas just walkin'

Talking that gangsta talk with that gangsta walk

Count the homies off by the tens, and rows of fives

If we all don't get the fuck in we ride

That's how the gangstas move, I'm a G, I'm a fool

I'm a dip, I'm a trip if you want me to

I'm a ride, I'm a slide, with that gangsta glide

I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga

[Chorus]

When you see me in the street best believe I got heat

I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga

On the grind living life in the fast lane motherfucker

I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga

Making money and the fame for a mutha fucking gangsta nigga

I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga

When you see me in the street best believe I got heat

I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga

[Kurupt]

You thought you had a grip, well we did too

That's why me and the homies decided to come through

Whip out the pistol, snatch off his head real quick

Bitch nigga, where the fuck did you stash the grip

On some gangsta shit 'cause gangstas make the world go 'round

Whip out the fo' pound, dump 'cause he's moving around

I bet he never move again, the next time a motherfucker say stay

down

On the ground, I bet he won't make a sound

This is G land nigga, Thailand nigga

Lulla-bye, high, do or die land nigga

Gangstas like fuck a bitch, hit the streets, hit a switch

Me and D-a-z like bitch pay me

That's how a gangsta moves, I'm a G, I'm a fool

I'm a dip, I'm a trip if you want me to

I'm a ride, I'm a slide, with that gangsta glide

I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga

[Chorus]

[Kurupt]

Have you ever once looked back, looked into the mirror

Saw your self falling flat, like where the fuck am I at?

I'm sick of this shit, I'm a put it all on the line

Before Daz start slapping bitches out they mind

Like bitch you wanna get slapped out your mind?

Bitches I'm a tell ya one more time, see

We can do anything, pull any ho

Do anything we wanna do don't you know

Kurupt and Daz, Daz and Kurupt, lick it up

I'm a aqua-boogie with a bitch walking up and down the strip

Not giving a fuck bitch, Daz dropping gangsta shit

It's nine let's get high, ya ho's need a ten

This is G land nigga, Thailand nigga

Lulla-bye, high, do or die land nigga

Gangstas like fuck a bitch, hit the streets, snatch a snitch

Me and D-a-z G, bitch pay me

That's how a gangsta moves, I'm a G, I'm a fool

I'm a dip, I'm a trip if you want me to

I'm a ride, I'm a slide, with that gangsta glide

I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga

[Chorus]

When you see me in the street best believe I got heat

I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga

On the grind living life in the fast lane motherfucker

I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga

See me, it ain't a thang for a mutha fucking gangsta nigga

I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga

When you see me in the street best believe I got heat

I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga, I'm a gangsta nigga

(La la la la la la la la)
