| We was born in the streets of L. A
|
| Where the streets ain’t safe at night
|
| Between the beeper and the color of a rag
|
| We have chosen the mic, right?
|
| So the philosophy we learned on the streets
|
| We now bring to this muthafuckin stage
|
| And at this time we likes to unload
|
| These lyrics like a 12-guage
|
| Bail on stage with a gangster lean
|
| Busters duck once I’m on the scene
|
| Opponents went out the do'
|
| The innocents hit the flo'
|
| As if we started a war
|
| Boo-Yaa! |
| It means a cry from a shotgun
|
| You want some of this, come on and get some
|
| Feel that Boo-Yaa bass, it get louder
|
| Only O.M.B. |
| could provide that power
|
| Power, from the brothers in black (ha!)
|
| No radio can stop this track (ha!)
|
| The Ridd, yeah, gettin rid of MC’s
|
| I get them before they even try to get me
|
| If the enemy tries to mob
|
| Get mopped by the Boo-Yaa hit squad
|
| Inmates from the mad house, comin from the lock-in
|
| Chilled with the rats ???
|
| You try to run, but you don’t get far
|
| Cause I spray your ass with the letter R
|
| Gangsta Ridd — is what?

| It read: 'life's goin too slow'
|
| Hesitate, you’re too late (yeah) the doubt in your route
