[Verse One] I do believe the year was 1966 A young brother was brought up in the mix... And ever since that day was born Like a mother from a baby, he could never be torn From the neighborhood that ? tardy? so much I'da hustle and chill, and surviving the clutch... And if you didn't know, I'm talkin' 'bout the best side Where the tribe reside on that Westside This ain't Bed-Stuy, but it's like "Do or Die" Contemplatin' suicide to ride by Homicides, and then it's ova... (ova, ova...) No rabbits for the four-leaf clover Everything is everything, just mind yo' buis-ness And when I handle mine, I leave no witness So when you're walkin', aim straight and keep goin' The rhymes are ?gumblin'? and the tribe is still, flowin' Fo'-deep in the G-ride...

Instead of The Shuffle, we was doin' El Lacoss And it was easy to catch a girl solo Bust out the gigolo, but showed the polo Before you thought we was coooold freakin' BIG grindin', dancin' cheek to cheek and Steal a kiss and you know I'm all excited! Until the point where I can't even hide it And when you know, someone stepped on my shoe And why they do that? And I done had too many blues I tried, real hard, to stay cool and calm He didn't say, "Excuse me" so I had to BOMB Lookin' at his {?}, I was only upset! So I get, betta watch the step...

[Chorus]
