G Is for Gentrify |
| Another beautiful day in mid-city LA |
| They rolled up, we popped him as he walked away |
| Pro game, man down, now all the neighbors standing round with they cameras out |
| Red team verse blue team |
| Been over thirty years it ain’t a new thing |
| Another gun shot, another nigga died |
| Don’t you know we got a lot bigger fish to fry? |
| Up north they just lynch Willie Sims |
| How come y’all niggas ain’t trying to get them? |
| Unless somebody come to try and take your rims |
| You gon' call the homies and pull out the MAC-10s |
| I don’t understand y’all dudes |
| White people see it on the news and they confused |
| While you choose to make war in this bitch, they invest, buy land and get rich |
| They moved out, but we moved in |
| Like fuck y’all niggas, no new friends |
| When they move back, we gotta move out |
| Now it’s seven figures for a new house |
| Walk they dogs with nose in the sky |
| Tensions build the temperature rise |
| We ask why the rent is so high |
| Ay, ay, could you put that camera down? |
| Y- what you mean it’s a free country? |
| That’s an expensive phone, right? |
| Yeah, it would suck if it got broke |
| Snapchat filters on the homicide |
| It’s entertainment to them when one of us die |
| Wanted to hit 'em but I saw the big picture |
| If I hit 'em then I’m just an «angry nigga» |
| Covered up his phone with my hand |
| Try to reason with him like a grown man |
| He didn’t get it but he left because he feared me |
| Couple days later he won’t even come near me |
| At night I saw him way across the street |
| Walking his dog, when he stopped to take a leak |
| On the corner with the candles and the flowers |
| The homie mama she been standing there for hours |
| Every night she would come down to mourn and cry |
| She saw the disrespect out the corner of her eye |
| That’s when a homie grabbed him by the neck |
| I would be a snitch if I said what happened next |
| They moved out, but we moved in |
| Like fuck y’all niggas, no new friends |
| When they move back, we gotta move out |
| Now it’s seven figures for a new house |
| Walk they dogs with nose in the sky |
| Tensions build the temperature rise |
| We ask why the rent is so high |
| Gentrify y’all, till we die y’all |
| From the West Side to best all y’all |
| It’s gentrify y’all, till we die y’all |
| From the West Side to best all y’all |
| It’s gentrify y’all, till we die y’all |
| From the West Side to best all y’all |
| It’s gentrify y’all, till we, till we, till we… |
