Yeah, that's right
It's the real one
We gon' crack one open right now
Me and Warren G
We ain't lettin' nobody bring us down, motherfuckers
West Coast stand up
Yeah, come on
We here today, then gone tomorrow
Got me singin' a Marvin Gaye song, it made me wanna holla
So I hop in my Impala just to cruise, shake my blues
It's hard to follow, hard to swallow what they sayin' on the news
Good Lord, it's a crazy world
Watchin' cops puttin' cuffs on a five-year-old girl
Racism, racism, got our babies in the system
Mom and daddies in the prison, that's intentional division
They don't want us all united, keep the family divided
Keep it gangsta, keep it real, that's all I hear, but I don't buy it
When it's revolution time, all these fools'll keep quiet
Like, shh, you could, you could hear a pin drop
Can't go to 110 'cause I might get popped
People shootin' on the freeway, when will it stop?
But stay strong 'cause the rain don't last
And Bush, the war been over, fix the price on gas
Don't let no one, no one get you down
'Cause if they do, if they do, I'll be around
What's really good? What's really hood?
What's really goin' on? Open your eyes and ears
Wipin' your eyes from tears from all the lies and fears
People get blinded here, let me define it clear
You gotta cross the bad, jealous thoughts and prayers
Someone to floss instead, you gettin' lost in there
Homie, the cost ain't fair, suckers get bought in pairs
Sellers get caught, so rare, never been taught to care
I heard a shot from there, hit on the spot from where?
Right on the street, prepared, levels of heat, you dare?
Spit at my feet, I swear, I will retreat for years
People deceive their peers, make you believe the cheers
But underneath the smears, I keep switchin' gears
Heart on my sleeve I wear, for all the sea I share
You got a dime to spare? You sound so sincere
You're out of line, but yeah, you sound so sincere
Don't let no one, no one get you down
'Cause if they do, if they do, I'll be around
You know what I'm sayin'? There's a lot goin' on in this world
But we gotta keep on pushin' and movin' and groovin'
You know what I'm sayin'?
Yeah, even though we got these hard times
We still gotta keep it steady, you know? Keep pushin'
So I want y'all to ride with me and cha-cha to this, come on
Dedicated to my people out there strugglin' (Stay strong)
Single parents, nine-to-five, steady hustlin' (Stay strong)
College students workin' hard to be somethin' (Stay strong)
Anybody makin' somethin' out of nothin' (Stay strong)
Dedicated to my people on lockdown (Stay strong)
To everybody lost somebody, wish they still around (Stay strong)
To all the soldiers fightin' for us on foreign ground (Stay strong)
To one and all, turn them frowns upside down
Don't let no one, no one get you down
'Cause if they do, if they do, I'll be around
Don't let no one, no one get you down
'Cause if they do, if they do, I'll be around
Don't let no one, no one get you down
'Cause if they do, if they do, I'll be around
