Woke up quick at about noon
Just thought that I had to be in compton soon
I gotta get drunk before the day begin
Before my mother starts bitchin' about my friends
About to go and damn near went blind
Young niggaz at the pad throwin' up gang signs
Ran in the house and grabbed my clip
With the mac-10 on the side of my hip
Bailed outside and pointed my weapon
Just as I thought, the fools kept steppin'
Jumped in the fo' hit the juice on my ride
I got front 'n back, and side to side
Then I let the alpine play
Bumpin' new shit by nwa
It was gangsta gangsta at the top of the list
Then I played my own shit, it went somethin' like this :
Cruisin' down the street in my '4
Jockin' the bitches, slappin' the ho's
Went to the park to get the scoop
Knuckle-heads out there cold shootin' some hoops
A car pulls up, who can it be?
A fresh el camino rollin' kilo g
He rolls down his window and he started to say
It's all about makin' that gta
Cuz the boyz in the hood are always hard
You come talkin' that trash we'll pull your card
Knowin' nothin' in life but to be legit'
Don't quote me boy, cuz I ain't said shit...
Dolla b'z in the place to give me the pace
He said my man jb is on freebase
The boy jb was a friend of mine
'till I caught him in my car tryin' to steal a alpine
Chased him up the street to call a truce
The silly mothafucka pull out a deuce-deuce
Little did he know I had a loaded 12 gage
One sucker dead, l.a. times front page
Cuz the boyz in the hood are always hard
You come talkin' that trash we'll pull your card
Knowin' nothin' in life but to be legit'
Don't quote me boy, cuz I ain't said shit...
Bored as hell and I wanna get ill
So I went to a spot where my homeboys chill
The fellows out there - makin' that dollar
I pulled up in my '4 impala
They greet me with a 40 and I start drinkin'
And from the 8-ball my breath start stinkin'
Love to get my girl, to rock that body
Before I left I hit the bacardi
Went to her house to get her out of the pad
Dumb ho said something that made me mad
She said somethin' that I couldn't believe
So I grabbed the stupid bitch by her nappy ass weave
She started talkin' shit, wouldn't you know?
Reached back like a pimp and slapped the ho'
Her father jumped out and he started to shout
So I threw a right-cross and knocked his old ass out
Cuz the boyz in the hood are always hard
You come talkin' that trash we'll pull your card
Knowin' nothin' in life but to be legit'
Don't quote me boy, cuz I ain't said shit...
I'm rollin' hard now I'm under control
Then wrapped the '4 'round the telephone poll
I looked at my car and I said oh brother
I throw it in the gutter and go buy another
Walkin' home and I see the g ride
Now kat is drivin' kilo on the side
As they busted a u they got pulled over
An undercover cop in a dark green nova
Kat got beat for resistin' arrest
He socked the pig in his head for rippin' his guess
Now g is caught for doin' the crime
For the fence on the boy, he'll do some time
Cuz the boyz in the hood are always hard
You come talkin' that trash we'll pull your card
Knowin' nothin' in life but to be legit'
Don't quote me boy, cuz I ain't said shit ...
I went to get the mouth but there was no bail
The fellows start to riot in the county jail
Two days later in municipal court
Kilo g on trial cold cut a fart
Disruption of a court, said the judge
On a six years sentence my man didn't budge
Bailiff came over to turn him in
Kilo g looked up and gave a grin
He yelled out fire!, then came suzi
The bitch came in with a sub-machine uzi
Police shot the bitch but didn't hurt her
Both up state for attempted murder
Cuz the boyz in the hood are always hard
You come talkin' that trash we'll pull your card
Knowin' nothin' in life but to be legit'
Don't quote me boy, cuz I ain't said shit ...
Arguably one of the most powerful and influential rap groups of all time N.W.A. (Niggaz With Attitude) -- Originally comprised of Eazy-E, Ice Cube, Dr. Dre, DJ Yella, and Arabian Prince -- is known for pioneering the style of rap commonly referred to as gangsta rap, which through the use of explicit lyrics describes life on the streets and the attitudes prevalent in gangs. At the time that N.W.A. came to prominence (1987) rap was only just breaking into the mainstream music world and was generally dominated by acts like DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince and LL Cool J. Needless to say N.W.A. was considered slightly more extreme. Despite much controversy N.W.A. managed to launch the careers of several prominent rappers including: Easy-E (now deceased) MC Ren, Ice Cube and Dr. Dre.
