Now U Know — текст песни (The Frontline)

[Asshole Records Intro]

[Chorus] x2
Why Why Why Why (That`s Oakland)
Yee Yee Yee Yee (That`s Richmond)
Hey Hey (That`s Frisco)
And if you ain`t from the Bay now your ass know

[Left]
Now somebody told me not to rep the Bay
Why not? This is where I stay
They said we was dead and stuck in a grave
And living off songs we made back in the day
So i`m gonna take the book and start turning pages
And expose the fact that they stealing Bay shit
And I ain`t talking about popping collars and slanguage
I`m talking about the moves they made to make it
Artist making labels started with P for sure
That`s Bay, we all entrepreneurs
We all doing our thing because Bay niggaz ain`t no punks
Distribution popping outta the trunk
Partner, and don`t think we see the relation
Between radio, mixtapes, and compiliations
And how you come out here on our radio stations
And say you love the Bay but can`t name the places
(Yeah)

[Chorus] x2

[Locksmith]
Yo, we got a little dilemma, man
Niggaz are really bitter, they caught up in the mental, man
I`m in the middle it`s about to give me a mental strain
Everybody`s tickled but none of them niggaz get it, man
I know they just really wanna get rid of me
I`m not a victim, I listen as they belittle me
Then I just take the negative energy
Put it in my lyrics and spit it at my enemies
I disregard small affairs
Treat `em like hopscotch and step all over squares
Scrutinizing me because I got the song on the air
But niggaz should understand that I belong over here
Yeah, nigga it`s long overdue
They telling you different, then nigga it`s far from the truth
In actuality, nigga, we starving like you
Nobody stepped up until we started to

[Chorus] x2
