Ice-T, n***a Representin Strictly Westside, n***a South Central in the muthaf**in hiddouse Check the technique, n***a Representin for my real n***as out there f** all you buster-a** n***as Word [ VERSE 1 ] Saturday night in L.A., time to play My peoples hummin like a vibrator, gotta make crime pay I'm packin two gats and I wish I could carry more Might sound crazy, but I ran out of slugs before Yeah, I know the feds watch me But my vest clashes hard with the Versace So I'm just rollin in the black five hun' I used to lowride, now it's just for fun I had 5 cars, but now I got one Hard to keep up ballin when you're on the run I got two ki's in my trunk and a shovel Stepped on the one, so now I gots double The shovel's for drama, need I say more? Got the fat stash spot under my pa**enger floor That's for the other strap, the automatic type I gotta keep it close in case sh** gets hype Got a b**h in jail, she didn't snitch, she did three I'ma have to roll solo till they set her free Cause I got some other crimeys down, true gees But they got all day, so now it's just me And I'ma kick this slang until the day I die I can't go straight, I won't even try I'm stuck in the game, so don't ask me why It's life in L.A. I lowride and I sag and cuss I cover my face with the rag and bust Long Beach and Compton are some down-a** towns But South Central L.A. is where the sh** goes down [ VERSE 2 ] Now n***as like they credit and they like to get they loans on So I hooked up with my boy who turns them phones on He told me bout this n***a who won't pay He also said he knew excactly where the muthaf**a stay So I went and got some homies I hang with Some crazy muthaf**as who I used to bang with We took a trip to his crib I snatched his hoe and his kids, and this is what we did I tied they punk a** up I cracked the safe with an axe, and then the phones we cut I didn't hurt his wife But I promised next time that I would take her life I shot a n***a in his neck for disrespect, caught a body Got a murder in Miami for a shoot-out at a party Got blood in my trunk from a punk who squealed Had a partner tried to play me and his cap I peeled Now I rest with my finger on my heater Hand on my beeper, a light sleeper I lowride and I sag and cuss I cover my face with the rag and bust New York and Philly are some down-a** towns But South Central L.A. is where my sh** goes down I lowride and I sag and cuss I cover my face with the rag and bust Frisco and Oakland are some down-a** towns But South Central L.A. is where my sh** goes down [ VERSE 3 ] I use to sling enough water you could float a boat You could ski on the mountains of f**in coke But now most n***as serve chronic So I let em check the bank, and then I'm all up on it I serve em with a cute hoe In a week they tell my b**hes 'bout all they dough Then I jack and I k** The jack's for the money, the k**'s for thrills I got 9'000 blacks that still serve crack Got a b**h who works the Plaza too on the track Got a GTA connection and I fence for j**els Got some little kids that move my f**in dope in schools Got warrants for arrest in about 20 states Got a bigger body count than f**in Norman Bates I'm a k**er, jacker, dealer, pimp supreme I'm livin out the hustler dream I lowride and I sag and cuss I cover my face with the rag and bust Houston and Atlanta are some down-a** towns But South Central L.A. is where that sh** goes down [ VERSE 4 ] Tonight I gotta meet this n***a from around the way Some think he's cool, I think he's DEA He said he want it bad, he heard that I got it good I bagged up ten ki's of flour and met him in the hood I met him at my spot, cause I know it's cool Pat him down on sight to remove his tool I made him name 10 n***as he should know But that still ain't sh** in the game of blow He asked to see the dope, I asked to see the cash He reached for that briefcase too fast A f**in pig, yo, he thought he had the chump I had my n***a in the closet with a bull pump And now there's f**in shot-up body all on the floor But that's what the shovel's for... I lowride and I sag and cuss I cover my face with the rag and bust Newark and Miami are some down-a** towns But South Central L.A. is where my sh** goes down I lowride and I sag and cuss I cover my face with the rag and bust Detroit and Chicago are some down-a** towns But South Central L.A. is where that sh** goes down I lowride and I sag and cuss I cover my face with the rag and bust D.C. and Cleveland are some down-a** towns But South Central L.A. is where the sh** goes down I lowride and I sag and cuss I cover my face with the rag and bust I know all my n***as live in down-a** towns But South Central L.A. is where my sh** goes down
