[Verse 1: The Game]
~#**************#~
I dont read the XXL
~#**************#~
Tote a four-five to church, think Im destined for hell, oh well
~#**************#~
Blood tears off the face of my Jesus piece
~#**************#~
Its bloodshed fill the cracks in my city streets
~#**************#~
Im from the crack of them city streets
~#**************#~
Used to sell crack in them city streets, born in blood, nigga
~#**************#~
In a coma five days, life of a thug nigga
~#**************#~
Mama aint show, grandma almost pulled the plug, nigga
~#**************#~
Used to pull the gun out just because these cuz niggas
~#**************#~
Five shots to the head cause Im a Blood nigga
~#**************#~
Nothin brewin but suwooing where the fuck Im from
~#**************#~
You lucky if you make it out of Compton, ask Andre Young
~#**************#~
Smell the scent of dead bodies ridin down Green Leaf
~#**************#~
No peace, so dont get caught up with no piece
~#**************#~
Fuck Fatburger, we cookin that real beef
~#**************#~
Mamas mournin they sons, Im talkin real grief
~#**************#~
Real funerals of them lost juveniles
~#**************#~
Tryna be generals, be missin your dinner now, huh
~#**************#~
Say its a blessing when you die in your sleep
~#**************#~
‘Cause the coroner dont need no sheets, capisce?
~#**************#~
Im sayin, stop playin, wrap him up in what he lay in
~#**************#~
Fold a nigga arms, now a casket what he pray in
~#**************#~
Compton streets raised me
~#**************#~
Cant tell my grandma nothin bout her baby, you crazy
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Tank]
~#**************#~
Said she see no evil, she dont hear nothin at all
~#**************#~
You wanna see tomorrow, you promise not to talk
~#**************#~
Said we on our way now, Ima see you again
~#**************#~
And when they ask you questions, you just answer
~#**************#~
What happened to them?
~#**************#~
What happened to them?
~#**************#~
[Verse 2: Kendrick Lamar]
~#**************#~
I live this life at a pace that anyone can go
~#**************#~
Know your place and dedicate your role to the faith that youll die alone
~#**************#~
Trace your steps when I do step in that fire of broken bones
~#**************#~
And I require my hearts desire and when I reap what I sow
~#**************#~
I bought my mama a Benz, my boobie a Jag
~#**************#~
A car for my dogs with a roof full of glass
~#**************#~
But still, I be feeling like none of my light never casts
~#**************#~
Out of that black cloud thats been watered down since my first chopper blast
~#**************#~
But fuck that, Im not worried, mm, even when its scary, mm
~#**************#~
Skrrt off, makin them hurt off, shouldve heard them in a hurry, mm
~#**************#~
Dirt off all of my fingers, dirt on all of them gone thats buried, mm
~#**************#~
Shirt off when procedure, resuscitation came early
~#**************#~
I need you to keep quiet as a mouse
~#**************#~
Which is ironic cause rats is what Im talkin bout
~#**************#~
Im hearin the sonics of gunfire, the whisper, the silent cries
~#**************#~
Even though we know its eye for an eye
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Tank]
~#**************#~
Said she see no evil (Yeah), she dont hear nothin at all (Oh)
~#**************#~
You wanna see tomorrow, you promise not to talk (Promise not to talk)
~#**************#~
Said we on our way now, Ima see you again
~#**************#~
And when they ask you questions, you just answer
~#**************#~
What happened to them? (Oh)
~#**************#~
What happened to them?
~#**************#~
[Bridge: Tank]
~#**************#~
I was born a soldier, ride or die for mine
~#**************#~
Tattoo tears and a lawyer tryna give me life
~#**************#~
Heaven, can you hear me? ‘Cause I know that hell can
~#**************#~
So, heaven, can you heal me? Im only just a man, oh
~#**************#~
[Verse 3: The Game]
~#**************#~
You wanna go to Compton? Nigga, Ill take you there
~#**************#~
Hub City, bodies get burnt butt-naked here
~#**************#~
Respect the code, a niggas callin from the pen
~#**************#~
Colombian neckties on the outside from within
~#**************#~
And then your mama never see you again
~#**************#~
Casket to never wake up, plastered in MAC make-up, huh
~#**************#~
Niggas cant hear you talkin from the sky
~#**************#~
And only five-year-olds see your ghost when you die, no lie
~#**************#~
Karma catches up to all you head honchos
~#**************#~
Two dome shots in that head, Griselda Blanco
~#**************#~
Shit get real, though, inside the Fox Hills, though
~#**************#~
Nigga livin that fast life and get killed slow
~#**************#~
Ask Wack and Draws if a nigga run the streets
~#**************#~
My grandmothers prayers saved you niggas, I never wanted peace
~#**************#~
Los Angeles, Im the motherfuckin king here
~#**************#~
No First 48 cause motherfuckers dont sing here, huh
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Tank]
~#**************#~
Said she see no evil, she dont hear nothin at all
~#**************#~
You wanna see tomorrow (Yeah), you promise not to talk (Dont do it)
~#**************#~
Said we on our way now (Yeah), Ima see you again (See you again)
~#**************#~
And when they ask you questions, you just answer
~#**************#~
What happened to them? (Tell me)
~#**************#~
What happened to them? (Yeah)
