[Intro] Die n***a! We are born to die n***a You've been dyin for 400 years n***as know how to die n***as don't know nothin else, but dyin n***as dream 'bout dyin [MC Ren] "I'm a motherf**in n***a" - "with an attitude" [Verse 1: Dr. Dre] I got a case, of spittin in a motherf**er's face So me and my ace, we got a taste Of a motherf**er's billy club, he took his gun and Put it to my head and said, "n***a start runnin" So tell me what's the next episode? Is he crazy, does he want to chase me or waste me? I thought "Run n***a run" but I caught myself Because my secondary thought was d**h I've got head and heart real, but still a motherf**er said I want another black motherf**er dead n***as ain't good for sh** to me Cause it's a race for second cla**, so get your a** Up against the wall b**h! And then he tried To jump me but the punk became a victim of a walkby f**in with Dre, you get a foot up in your a**hole It's just another way to let you know n***a send 'em, n***a send 'em, n***a send 'em Punk can't f** with me! Real motherf**in G ("You out there?") Straight from the streets of the C.P.T. ("Well clap your hands to what he's doin") Tellin you why, real n***as don't die! [Hook] "I-iiiiiii, just want to celebrate!" ("Get on down!" - "Here it is") [Verse 2: MC Ren] Real n***as don't die cause they eventually multiply The n***as I'm with, they take an eye for an eye Because the times are so wrong, gotta stay so strong n***as gotta keep it goin on and on And don't let no paleface throw your a** in a snail race Have your residence occupyin a jail space That's what they want to do cause the system is f**ed around I try to let you know with the records that's underground
They don't give a f** about a n***a, they would rather pull the trigger And have you in front of a barrel smilin sayin "Cheese!" ("You out there?") So n***a get smart and rebel back I'm not with that black sh** so I'm not gonna yell that All I see is n***as getting hara**ed And can't do nothin about it but get a foot in they a**, yo But if every n***a grabbed a nine And started shootin motherf**ers it would put 'em in line And that's how it's supposed to be When a p**y-a** n***a try to f** with me Yo, because it's useless to try To k** a n***a cause n***a a motherf**in real n***a don't die! [Hook] "I-iiiiiii, just want to celebrate!" [Interlude] Die n***a, everywhere you go! n***as dying, n***as been dyin for 400 years [MC Ren] "I'm a motherf**in n***a" - "with an attitude" [Verse 3: Eazy-E] Only the good die young, so that makes me young and bad Puttin a**-kickings on the n***as that never had So I guess that makes me tough sh** Straight up gangsta, wrong n***a to f** with So how can a n***a die, when he's causin the bloodshed I shoot motherf**ers in the head Tryin to make a n***a extinct because they fear me But never wanna hear me So I'mma let 'em know how a n***a's livin Takin from motherf**ers cause nobody ain't givin A damn thang! To a n***a, a real n***a So I'm living by the motherf**in trigger Cause a n***a ain't afraid of bein locked up I'm out of luck, so why should I give a f**? But they still want to try To k** a n***a like me but motherf**in real n***as don't die! [Hook] "I-iiiiiii, just want to celebrate!" [Outro: MC Ren] Yeah, a real n***a don't die! Yeah motherf**ers! ("Die, n***a!")
