On Rosecrans off Gin and Juice

On Rosecrans off Gin and Juice

'Round here niggas ain't got shit to lose

Young niggas off the chain and they gettin' loose

L.A. niggas with the bullshit

You better not step to me wrong

I'll burn five hundred dollar candles

Will they mourn me when I'm gone?

[The Game:]

39 and I'm still bangin' (Still bangin')

I can't get out if I wanted to (If I wanted to)

All I did was document my life (Document my life)

Hit the hood and brought the Hummer through (Hummer through)

I finally got the Impala candy-painted (Candy-painted)

Show you outta-towners what that Summer do

Started off with 60 niggas with me everywhere I went

120 cups inside a Summer Jam tent

I went from broke fantasizin' 'bout Christina Aquilera to

Puttin' TVs in the dash of my mama's Xterra

This is real shit

I'm spittin' bars from the gun niggas get killed with

I had to cover my son and let that steel spit

I talked about in songs, niggas got real sick

Dre thought that I was just rappin'

I told 'em I had bodies, no cappin'

Nigga, this the new Compton

2005, my whole life got live

Picture a gang member on the cover of the Vibe

Tell 'em why it's West Side

This my life (This my life)

It's more than music (It's more than music)

A lot of niggas rap but I was born to do it (I was born to do it)

Took my mama two days to give birth

And how I repay her? Goin' through her mother****in' purse (Mother****in' purse)

It's crazy how she loved me after all my dirt (After all my dirt)

Nigga disrespect her, he gon' touch the earth (Touch the earth)

If it's me or my niggas, then I'ma die first

Go on my 'Gram, put that pic of me and DOM on some shirts

It's all fun and games 'til that Super Soaker squirt

You lost somebody you love, I know it hurt

I got two dead brothers, one dead father

A mama with a pacemaker, two sons, and a daughter

I got a lot to live for but I ain't scared to die

I got this Hennessy and my nigga DOM KENNEDY
