Cars drive by in the night
So much sound coming from inside
Red, blue flags hanging from the side
So much time went pa**ing by
The soundtrack to the ghetto was The Chronic
The soundtrack to the ghetto was The Chronic
The soundtrack to the ghetto was The Chronic

Maybe I should move a little
Smoke a little
f** around, get high a little
Start reminiscing about the old times
12 years old, cars driving by with gangsters in it
You ain't stand too long cause you already knew it was gangsters in it, n***a
Yeah when everything was copacetic
Till n***as got off them 40 ounces, that's when even the pope can get it
Chronic smoke all in the air, ain't nobody playing fair
And Snoop Dogg had all these n***as around here tryna braid they hair
Red and blue, khaki suits
Us lil n***as got active too
From Lincoln Park, back to the fruits
Us lil n***as had ratchets too
So what you saying n***a?
We ain't playing n***a
We k** your daddy and let your mama do all that praying n***a
Lose your f**ing life when them
Cars drive by in the night
So much sound coming from inside
Red, blue flags hanging from the side
So much time went pa**ing by

My mama was a gangster n***a
My daddy was just a gangster n***a
Wasn't for them I wouldn't be from Compton
I should probably thank them n***as
Taught me how to shoot, rob, k**, how to shank a n***a
Maybe I should blame them for all these cases where I done banked a n***a
AKs out of M3's
Prostitutes on bent knees
Gun shots on Greenleaf
All these 64s, no Bentleys n***a
Euros on Cutla**es, you can't rent these n***as
Bout to do a drive-by tonight, that's why we tint these n***a
Heard shots rang out, just riding on my 10 speed
Seen the windows down and the b**h squeezed
n***a almost died tryna get some weed
So don't be fooled by the palm trees
This Compton n***a, that 310
That 213, we on d**h Row
Ain't no one escape unless you DRE
And that's how I felt when
Cars drive by in the night
So much sound coming from inside
Red, blue flags hanging from the side
So much time went pa**ing by
