I was raised in the hood called what the fuck, nigga
Half an ounce of chronic is a misdemeanor
Charles Manson can kill and live to see another day
Skatin' in a '6-trey drinkin' on E&J
I was raised in the hood called what the fuck, nigga
The stereotypes don't go away
I was raised in the hood called what the fuck, nigga
Murder is a headline
W.C, ya better duck, nigga, fuck me, you're out of luck, nigga
While we killin' each other, the blacks and the eses
This is Los Angeles, this is Los Angeles
W.C, ya better duck, nigga, fuck me, you're out of luck, nigga
As I turn this bottle for my niggaz the old way
W.C, ya better duck, nigga, fuck me, you're out of luck, nigga
I was raised in the hood called what the fuck, nigga
On the stand y'all be singin' like Mary J. Blige
Out the belly of CA, hated by the D.A.
This shit don't stop, I'm still stackin' my cash
Fuck how much money you make, they gon' hate
Everything will C okay
But if you're black like Tookie they gon' steal you away
But I'ma stay cockin' my pistol
W.C, ya better duck, nigga, fuck me, you're out of luck, nigga
South Central L.A. where every day
Ballin' ass nigga, they gon' still treat ya like O.J.
Crips killin' Crips, nigga, Bloods killin' Bloods
The LAPD ghetto bird be yellin' freeze on the PA
W.C, ya better duck, nigga, fuck me, you're out of luck, nigga
Goin' hard in the paint, niggaz can't stop my dribble
‘Coz don't nobody give a fuck if I'm eatin' or not, nigga
This is Los, this is Los Angeles
Gang capital of the nation, gang capital of the nation
This is Los Angeles, this is Los Angeles
Niggaz tellin', gotta stay outta dodge
The po-po wanna send us where the P.O.'s play
Little nigga, nice car, where the kilos lay?
I was raised in the hood called what the fuck, nigga
Where gun fire's ramped, the one time be gafflin'
This is Los, this is Los Angeles
It's gettin' kinda hot but I ain't leavin' the spot
I was raised in the hood called what the fuck, nigga
Fuck unity, ain't no motherfuckin' one love
One gram of hard is fed' time
South Central, the gangbang capital
Thinkin' we all get our money the ‘Carlito's Way’
This is Los Angeles, this is Los Angeles
This is Los Angeles, this is Los Angeles
Out in the backyard with niggaz hidin' crack in they ass
W.C, ya better duck, nigga, fuck me, you're out of luck, nigga
I was raised in the hood called what the fuck, nigga
You know they wanna lock us away, they laughin' away
W.C, ya better duck, nigga, fuck me, you're out of luck, nigga
This is Los Angeles, this is Los Angeles
Keep the thang on me like a preacher do a Bible
The name of the game is survival
