Ghetto Vet

LifeNiggaz used to come and get me

When it was time to disagree with an enemy

Pass the Hennessey it gives me energy

Packed the gat in the small of my back

Where these niggaz at

I clear the whole pack

Talkin' shit 'cuz

I'm down for my set

I'm a vetSmokin' on a wet cigarette(Who these niggaz think they are?)(Wishin' on a ghetto star I represent my tar, [Incomprehensible])

I start bustin' and they scatter like water bugs'

Cuz these

Westside niggaz is harder thugs

Enslave us but nothin' can save us from sportin'

Ben DavisShootin' at your neighbors('Cuz sometimes I feel like a nut, don't give a fuck when I open ya up)

Hot rocks fly from the back seat

And busta ass niggaz run like a track meet

And if you crawl in the middle bleed mo' than a little(What?)

Killer king is the hospital, feelin' numb from the bullets

I humAnd when they hit, black mothers have fits,

I don't give a shit

Fool, I'm a vet you can bet

That I could dance underwater and not get wet(Check it)

It's rainin' bullets and

I'm still there(Foe life)

I'm still there

My house shoes get wet from the dew on the grass

Up early in the morning takin' out the trash

Feelin' like a loser alcohol abuser

Two youngsters roll up on a beach cruiser

One on the pedals the other on the handle bars(What?)

Tryin' be ghetto stars they said"Are you from the Westside, is it so?"

I said, "Hell yea and who wanna know?(Me)In slow mo fo', fo' slugs face down in the mudPuddle full of blood left for deadThe pain starts to spread now I can't feel my legsI meet Dr. Who, at King Drew Medical CenterAs I enter I.C.U.He said, "
