[Intro]
~#**************#~
I wanna dedicate this one to Robert “Yummy” Sandifer
~#**************#~
And all other lil young niggas thats in a rush to be gangstas
~#**************#~
[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
As a young nigga, Im almost runnin in the wind
~#**************#~
Give anything, to be that innocent again, when I was ten
~#**************#~
I didnt bang, but I was hangin with the homies
~#**************#~
‘Til them niggas started slangin, now they dont know me
~#**************#~
I got my hustle on, learned to ignore what couldnt pay me
~#**************#~
Lately, Ive been tryin to make a million, can you blame me?
~#**************#~
With that jealousy, they need to miss me, dont sweat me
~#**************#~
If them cowards really want me, come get me, and even I
~#**************#~
Someday will die, but Im cautious, Im fin to ride
~#**************#~
Put down the top, now we flossin
~#**************#~
Hit the freeway, let the wind blow, drop the window
~#**************#~
Workin with a twenty sack of indo, feelin good
~#**************#~
Stop through the hood, grab the young thugs
~#**************#~
And I cant help but reminisce back when we slung drugs, though its bad
~#**************#~
But all we had was our hopes and dreams
~#**************#~
Couldnt see unless we learned to slang dope to fiends
~#**************#~
As young niggas
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Moe Z MD & 2Pac]
~#**************#~
Hes the kind of G like everybody knows
~#**************#~
(As a young nigga)
~#**************#~
Hes always Gd up, from head to toe
~#**************#~
(My memories as a young nigga)
~#**************#~
Always got it blown like Al Capone
~#**************#~
(Strung nigga)
~#**************#~
Hes the downest G Ive ever known
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
Back in Junior High, when we was barely gettin by, when daddy died
~#**************#~
Thats when my momma started gettin high
~#**************#~
My neighborhood was full of drive-bys, couldnt survive
~#**************#~
All our homies livin short lives, I couldnt cry
~#**************#~
Told my momma, if I did die, just put a blunt in my casket
~#**************#~
Let me get my dead homies high
~#**************#~
Come follow me throughout my history
~#**************#~
Its just Me Against the World stuck in misery; as a young nigga
~#**************#~
My only thing was to be paid
~#**************#~
Life full of riches, avoid snitches cause they shady, back in the days
~#**************#~
We always found the time to play
~#**************#~
But thats before they taught them gangbangers how to spray
~#**************#~
Not just L.A., but in the Bay and in Chicago and even St. Louis
~#**************#~
Every stadium that I go, when will they change?
~#**************#~
Stuck in the game like a dumb nigga
~#**************#~
Remember how it was to be a young nigga
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Moe Z MD & 2Pac]
~#**************#~
Hes the kind of G that everybody knows
~#**************#~
(As a young nigga)
~#**************#~
Hes always Gd up, from head to toe
~#**************#~
(My memories as a young nigga)
~#**************#~
Always got it blown like Al Capone
~#**************#~
(Strung nigga)
~#**************#~
Hes the downest G Ive ever known
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
Im tellin you, to be young
~#**************#~
Have your brains and have every limb and all that
~#**************#~
Yo, yall niggas dont know how good you really do got it
~#**************#~
Muhfuckers need to just calm down
~#**************#~
And peep what the fuck they wanna do for the rest of the life
~#**************#~
‘Fore you end your life before you begin your life
~#**************#~
You dumb nigga
~#**************#~
[Verse 3]
~#**************#~
Now that Im grown, I got my mind on bein somethin
~#**************#~
Dont wanna be another statistic, out here doin nuttin
~#**************#~
Tryin to maintain in this dirty game, keep it real
~#**************#~
And I will even if it kills me, my young niggas
~#**************#~
Break away from these dumb niggas
~#**************#~
Put down the guns and have some fun, nigga, the restll come, figure
~#**************#~
Fame is a fast thang, that gangbangin
~#**************#~
Puttin niggas in a casket, murdered for hangin
~#**************#~
At the wrong place at the wrong time, no longer livin
~#**************#~
‘Cause he threw up the wrong sign, and every day
~#**************#~
I watch the murder rate increases, and even worse
~#**************#~
The epidemic and diseases, what is the future?
~#**************#~
The projects lookin hopeless, where
~#**************#~
More and more brothers givin up and dont care
~#**************#~
Sometimes, I hate when brothers act up, I hit the weed
~#**************#~
And I proceed to blow the track up, for young niggas
~#**************#~
[Chorus: Moe Z MD & 2Pac]
~#**************#~
Hes the kind of G like everybody knows
~#**************#~
(For the strung niggas)
~#**************#~
Hes always Gd up, from head to toe
~#**************#~
(My memories as a young nigga)
~#**************#~
Always got it blown like Al Capone
~#**************#~
(This for nigga, this for the young niggas)
~#**************#~
Hes the downest G Ive ever known
~#**************#~
(As a young nigga)
~#**************#~
Hes the kind of G like everybody knows
~#**************#~
(Strung nigga)
~#**************#~
Hes always Gd up, from head to toe
~#**************#~
(Memories as a young nigga)
~#**************#~
He always got it blown like Al Capone
~#**************#~
(Strung nigga)
~#**************#~
Hes the downest G Ive ever known
~#**************#~
[Outro: 2Pac & Moe Z MD]

~#**************#~
Young motherfuckin hustlers (Make that money, boy)
~#**************#~

You could be a fuckin accountant, not a dope dealer (Young nigga)
