Yeah that's right, it's the real one
We gon' crack one open right now
Me and Warren G
We ain't letting nobody bring us down, motherfuckers
West Coast stand up
Yeah, come on
We here today then gone tomorrow
It's got me singing a Marvin Gaye song
It make me wanna holler
So I hop in my Impala
Just to cruise, shake my blues
It's hard to follow, hard to swallow
What they saying on the news
Good Lord, it's a crazy world
Watching cops putting cuffs on a five year old girl
Racism, racism, got our babies in the system
Mama and daddies in the prison
That's intention, no division
They don't want us all united
Keep the family divided
Keep it gangsta, keep it real
That's all I hear but I don't buy it
When it's revolution time
All these fools'll keep quiet
Like shhh, you could, you could hear a pin drop
Can't go to 110 'cause I might get popped
People shooting on the freeway, when will it stop?
But stay strong 'cause the rain don't last
And Bush the war been over, fix the price on gas
Don't let no one, no one get you down
'Cause if they do, if they do, I'll be around
What's really good? What's really hood?
What's really going on? Open your eyes and ears
Wiping your eyes from tears
From all the lies and fears
People get blinded here, let me define it clear
You gotta cross the bad killers and thoughts of prayers
I'm gonna floss instead
You getting lost in there
Homie, the cost ain't fair
Suckers get bought in pairs
Sellers get caught, so rare
Never been taught to care
I heard the shot from there
Hit on the spot from where
Right on the street prepared
Levels of heat, you dare
Spit at my feet, I swear
I will retreat for years
People deceive their peers
Make you believe the cheers
But underneath the smears
I keep switching gears
Heart on my sleeve I wear
For all the sick I share
You got a dime to spare
You sound so sincere
You're out of line, but yeah
You sound so sincere
Don't let no one, no one get you down
'Cause if they do, if they do, I'll be around
You know what I'm saying? It's a lot going on in this world
But we gotta keep on pushing and moving
And grooving, you know what I'm saying?
Yeah, even though we got these hard times
We still gotta keep it steady, you know?
Keep pushing
So I want y'all to ride with me and cha-cha to this, come on
Dedicated to my people out there struggling (Stay strong)
Single parents, nine-to-five, steady hustling (Stay strong)
College students working hard to be something (Stay strong)
Anybody making something out of nothing (Stay strong)
Dedicated to my people on lockdown (Stay strong)
To everybody lost somebody, wish they still around (Stay strong)
To all the soldiers fighting for us on foreign ground (Stay strong)
To one and all, turn them frowns upside down
Don't let no one, no one get you down
'Cause if they do, if they do, I'll be around
Don't let no one, no one get you down
'Cause if they do, if they do, I'll be around
Don't let no one, no one get you down
'Cause if they do, if they do, I'll be around
