Geah
We in the house for the 93 shot
MC Eiht you know I`m sayin`
Ain`t no fakin` the funk
It ain`t nuthin` but a Compton thang
And this one is goin` out to all my homeboys rest in peace
Geah
A crooked childhood it`s what the way I am
It`s got me in the state where I don`t give a damn, geah
Somebody helped me
But now they don`t hear me though
I guess I be another victim of the ghetto
Ain`t no escaping cause I`m way too young
Pops is dealin`
And on top of that got moms sprung
Screamin` of the top
Pops never figured
Daddy go down by the hands of another man
Now my pops is goin` that ain`t no good
Gotta follow in the footsteps of the homies from the hood
And where`s the role model?
Brothers putting brew
In my damn baby bottle, geah
And through all the stress and the pain
They all drew my mind insane
So I guess I gotta do what so I ain`t finished
I grew up to be a streiht up menace, geah
Now I`m of age
And living in the projects
Gettin` paid of the clucks in the county checks
I finish fresh outta High School
Never did I wonder
That - the hood - would take me under
Geah, I`m kickin` it with the homies and it`s like that
Off to the corner store owned by the dirty rats
See a freak in the right lane so I comes with a Mac
I stole van, trust a trick, pulls a jack from the back
Now he gots the strap to my homies head
Sayin` playin` cool and don`t be a fool
He shot my G in the damn head
I`d caught one in the shoulder if I didn`t bail I was dead
Now I`m laying in the hospital bed
Thinkin` about that fool who shot my homie and my eyes are bloodshot red
Geah, punk fools I ain`t finished
Be on the lookout for the streiht up menace, geah
Uh
What`s up ya`ll
Streiht up menace
Geah
Streiht up menace
Geah
I`m N 2 deep
I had to kill another brother and I just can`t sleep
One Time`s tryin` to do a smooth - creep
And on top of that
Fools after me for diggin` one of that hoodrats
I ain`t got time for the female story
Fools want me got to come to my territory
And ain`t no you can get out this
Fools come and they get done on their own risk
What is it all about?
Should I leave or should I stay? Cause I don`t wanna punk out
Or what should I do?
My homies say the hood
Where it`s good homeboy I thought you knew
So in the process to show the hood my best
No time to react caught 2 in the chest
Now look who`s down I guess I`m finished
I guess I`ll die like a streiht up menace, geah
Uh
What`s up y`all
Streiht up menace
Geah
Somebody help me out
Cause I`m a streiht up menace
In the house for the 93 shot
And Half Ounce Production`s in full effect, geah
Peace to N-O-T-R
And all my homies that rest in peace
Cause it ain`t nuthin` but a Compton thang
And we out
