The Watcher |
| Things just ain’t the same for gangsters |
| Times is changin young niggaz is agin |
| Becomin O.G.'s in the game and changin |
| to make way for these new names and faces but |
| the strangest things can happen from rappin |
| when niggaz get wrapped up in image and actin |
| Niggaz get capped up and wrapped in plastic |
| and zipped up in bags when it happens that’s it |
| I’ve seen em come I’ve watched em go Watched em rise, witnessed it and watched them blow |
| Watched em all blossom and watched em grow |
| Watched the lawsuits when they lost the dough |
| Best friends and money? |
| I lost them both |
| Went and visisted niggaz in the hospital |
| and saw the same shit all across the globe |
| I just sit back and watch the show (the watcher) |
| Chorus: Dr. Dre |
| Cause everywhere that I go ain’t the same as befo'(the watcher) |
| People I used to know |
| just don’t know me no mo'(the watcher) |
| But everywhere that I go |
| I got people I know (the watcher) |
| who got people they know |
| So I suggest you lay low (the watcher) |
| I moved out of the hood for good — you blame me? |
| Niggaz aim angry at niggaz they can’t be But niggaz can’t hit niggaz they can’t see |
| I’m out of sight, now I’m out of they dang reach |
| How would you feel if niggaz wanted you killed? |
| You’d probably move to a new house on a new hill |
| and choose a new spot if niggaz wanted you shot |
| I ain’t a thug — how much Tupac in you you got? |
| I ain’t no bitch neither — it’s either my life |
| or yo’life and I ain’t leavin — I like breathin |
| Cause nigga we can go round for round |
| Clip for clip, shit fo’pound for pound |
| Nigga if you really wanna take it there we can |
| Just remember that you fuckin with a family man |
| I got a lot more to lose than you, remember that |
| when you wanna come and fill these shoes (the watcher) |
| Things just ain’t the same for gangstas |
| Cops is anxious to put niggaz in handcuffs |
| They wanna hang us, see us dead or enslave us Keep us trapped in the same place we raised in Then they wonder why we act so outrageous |
| Run around stressed out and pull out gauges |
| Cause everytime you let the animal out cages |
| It’s dangerous, to people who look like strangers |
| But now we got a new era of gangsters |
| Hustlers and youngsters livin amongst us Lookin at us, now callin us bustaz |
| Can’t help but reminisce back when it was us Nigga we started this gangsta shit! |
| And this the motherfuckin thanks I get? |
| It’s funny how time fly |
| I’m just havin fun, just watchin it fly by (the watcher) |
| (the watcher — 4X) |
