But stay strong, cause the rain don't last And push the war up in 'em, will fix the price on gas (Hook, Side Effect) Don't let nobody, no-o-o one Get you doooowwwwnnnnn Cause if they do, if they do I'll be arouuuunnnndddd (Verse 2, Ice Cube) Why the black and the brown got to fight in the Pen The black and the brown, they squabbin again Them God damned sheriffs, is laughin again It all stink, keep yo a** out the wind See the black and the brown, we can share the same land When I was a slave, where the hell did I ran? California man, it was full of mexi-cans Look mu-fasa, this is they casa Just, kick back and enjoy the sunshine Live ya life, stay away from one-time Get'cha money man, find the lunch line This ain't a joke, homie where's the punch line?
