Ghetto Star |
Shameless stuff for you to see |
What your life could truly be |
And if you’re really from the streets |
Spit that ghetto poetry |
Cause you’re a shining star |
Cause you’re a shining star |
No matter who you are |
No matter who you are |
And never fail to see |
Never fail to see |
The real G-A-M-E |
Back in the day I used to smoke a blunt and pray before I got on the stage |
And I was opening up for N.W.A |
And I remember how it all began |
I used to steal cars from Haywood, take them back to East Oakland |
Till Short Dawg picked me up from high school |
I was just a little nigga with heart, and uncle Short was hella cool |
Took me to the studio, I met the homie Richie Rich |
And all the way there people waved with their Caddy and screamed biatch |
That moment was frozen in time |
And I got memories like that embedded deep in my mind |
Cause that’s when something clicked in my head and said this is you |
The whips, money lifestyle, women, it’s all true |
I went to sleep that night and dreamt I was a rap star |
Woke up and wrote 187 Proof and started going hard |
But the haters was hating, on the level of the devil |
Then the riots kicked in and I gave you «Welcome to the Ghetto» |
It was me, Scarface and Eiht on the cover of Source Mag |
In the blue '64 Chevy Impala rag |
And Menace II Society was the movie to watch |
I just did the soundtrack, smoking big with the homie Pac |
I did Triggas Gots No Heart in 18 straight up minutes |
UGK, Big Poppa, full of stones and we was in it |
From the Bay to LA back to Houston with DJ Screw |
Cause Pimp C and Bun B was on the tour with us too (UGK) |
I’ve been around too many legends to fail |
I’ve either been shot up, stabbed or thrown in jail |
But through the flames and the fire I emerged through the ashes |
And shaped the game like it was made out of clay |
Bossalini, Fetti Chico, Soprano, Montana, Meier |
Spice 1, I come from the Bay and I spit fire |
Float like a butterfly, sting like a bee |
I wanna say I shooked the world like Muhammad Ali |
C’mon… ha ha ha |
This how the shit went down you know? |
I remember me and 'Pac smashed through the hood |
You know what I’m sayin'? |
You know what I’m sayin'? |
We were two young buyin' alcohol man |
