| I have come to the fork in the road
|
| Many have tried to proceed from here, but they body go cold
|
| Seeing souls flyin high from out the window in the Rove
|
| It’s a desert out here, California is a stove
|
| 360 degrees as the story is told
|
| Pull the truck over to the side of the road, pull the brake up
|
| Blow the horn before I get out, you niggas wake up
|
| Hip-Hop been soft since the Roc-A-Fella break up
|
| And I don’t do subliminals, I just pick Jay up
|
| And all you other niggas stay up (haha)
|
| I got a lot to live for, fuck you think I had a kid for?
|
| You gotta crawl before you walk
|
| That’s when you runnin' with the big dogs
|
| Better slow down homie
|
| Cuz when it go down homie
|
| I ain’t neva seen a one man army
|
| But I done seen a lot of niggas bite when them hollows take flight
|
| You wanna see a dead body, c’mon
|
| Walk with me
|
| Take one look inside my soul
|
| And all that you will see is the ghetto
|
| Ghetto (walk with me)
|
| Walk, walk with me (walk with me)
|
| Through the ghetto, through the ghetto, through the ghetto
|
| Take me up to the ?740? |
| leave me understood
|
| Oh yeah nigga I’m back in the hood
|
| 40 ounce spillin' on the sidewalk, eatin' away at the white chalk
|
| Close to the project fence, far away from niggas that might talk
|
| Every city I roam is home, I make the right call
|
| 10 minutes later, Latin Kings, Disciples, Vice Lords
|
| Cuz niggas got me screwed up, like dippin' through the ninth ward
|
| I might as well get a Cutlass on 28s and clean the whitewalls
|
| That’s too much drivin', let me get out and walk a little
|
| Soak up game, listen to these Houston niggas talk a little
|
| Must I remind you of that Ghetto Boy track
|
| Your Mind is Playin Tricks on You, you’ll neva go plat
|
| Unless you can recite a whole Snoop Dogg track
|
| I mean Gin And Juice, Deep Cover, or somethin' like that
|
| Just cuz I’m from Compton don’t mean I don’t know Kool G Rap
|
| I’m on a Road to Riches mothafucka
|
| Walk with me
|
| Take one look inside my soul
|
| And all that you will see is the ghetto
|
| Ghetto (walk with me)
|
| Walk, walk with me
|
| Through the ghetto, through the ghetto, through the ghetto
|
| For me the first verse was just me talkin' out loud
|
| Chronic and Louis the XIIIth, let me talk to my crowd
|
| I’m cognac West, let me see what’s behind that vest
|
| Niggas is sleepin' on The Game, I put they mind at rest
|
| I be talkin' to niggas dirty, every line’s a mess
|
| Cuz im from killa Cali, home o' gang signs and techs
|
| I seen a lot of niggas get shot makin' that Compton pit stop
|
| Niggas like me put it in a song and call it Hip-Hop
|
| Don’t repeat what I say, just peep what I say
|
| Apply it to your life let me be the reason you pray
|
| I got that Farrakhan flow, yeah I’m speakin' to millions
|
| Slice right through the bean pod when I’m teachin' you children
|
| Niggas get to flushin' they drugs when I creep through the buildin'
|
| I will rain on you niggas till it leak through through your ceilin'
|
| Imma hold it down, lord willin'
|
| Remember the first time you heard Cube spit?
|
| I’m bringin' back that feelin'
|
| Walk with me
|
| Take one look inside my soul
|
| And all that you will see is the ghetto
|
| Ghetto (walk with me)
|
| Walk, walk with me
|
| Through the ghetto, through the ghetto, through the ghetto
|
| This is it
|
| As you ordered, 300
|
| All with born sons to carry on their name |
