| You been to jail before?
|
| Me? |
| Of course I’ve been to jail. |
| They don’t even want me in jail no more,
|
| I’m too old now. |
| They want guys like you
|
| Bloods and Crips, the Ñietas, Latin Kings, Disciples, and Vice Lords
|
| All crews that bang
|
| Vatos Locos, Four Corner Hustler thing, the Mexican Mafia
|
| All crews that bang
|
| Al-Qaeda, CIA, Hamas, the Mossad, NYPD
|
| All crews that bang
|
| Non Phixion, Cypress Hill, House of Pain, La Coka Nostra
|
| All crews that bang
|
| From Don Corleone or to Tony Montana
|
| Whatever you are, homie, bikers or bandanas
|
| Riders who cock hammers and soldiers who roll deep
|
| I’m a child of the night, homie I don’t sleep
|
| My crew, we slow creep while you’re counting your sheep
|
| We bang on anybody stepping up they bleed in the street
|
| Maybe you got what it takes to lead a team of cutthroats
|
| Maybe you hang around with a crew of fuckholes
|
| Fakes, frauds, fictional bangers
|
| Never held a heater til you had someone take your picture
|
| Looking invincible with it, you did it for glory
|
| Some did it for real and others they tell stories
|
| But the collective we have here’s respected
|
| Making you an offer you should never reject it
|
| You roll with the bowl over, baby the math is simple
|
| It’s pop pop pop in your temple
|
| IRA scheming, PLO dreaming, Celtic heathen, peckerwood demon
|
| Kicking and screaming through the depths of hell
|
| Bareback riding on a jezebel
|
| The hammer’s cocked, you get shot by the shell
|
| I burnt an angel’s wings then sang while he fell
|
| There’s a party in hell, there’s a war in heaven
|
| The whole world been shook since 9/11
|
| With Muslim extremists and Zionists
|
| Trying to rule the world with an iron fist
|
| While the junkies and the dealers are doing the bids
|
| Uncle Howie say it’s time for revolution, kids
|
| Don’t spill your blood on foreign land
|
| Come outside on the block with your gun in your hand
|
| If you’re mad as fuck and won’t take it no more
|
| Buck shots in the air like you ready for war
|
| We don’t die, we multiply
|
| This song was not made to glorify gang culture
|
| Nor to explore the lives of soldiers or street villains
|
| Ghetto superstars, political heroes
|
| Compton G’s to Brooklyn Deniros
|
| Raised from children to killers, prisoners to peace prize winners
|
| Was Nelson Mandela a terrorist?
|
| Let’s consider the truth: The biggest gang in the world is the police
|
| Our tax dollars pay for no justice and no peace
|
| An empty crack vials crushed by ten year old feet
|
| On their way to school past the meth heads and dope fiends
|
| Anatomy of a true banger, I ain’t shit without my homeboys
|
| Fuck with my set, you get your goons strangled
|
| I won’t be convicted like Jimmy Coonan
|
| And you’re not a gangster, who the fuck you think you fooling?
|
| My ruthless brilliance soon to produce me millions
|
| Billy Idol homeboy, peace to Tookie Williams |
