O.c. - Respect Tha Drop lyrics

[O.C.] Blood pulsatin, adrenaline flowin Full moon at night, on the stoop gettin right I'll never forget the day before Son told me to tuck my ice in cause n***az was triflin We did what he said but the habit in me Was to show it off, I still let my chain swang free Not really thinkin 'bout a set up, or even gettin wet up That summer night from such advice So I proceed to parlay, like I do in BK But this wasn't home, and n***az shoulda known To stay on point, n***az shoulda been on point And the price paid was lookin down the barrel of a joint We was dead meat, and them n***az was wolves But they didn't want our flesh, dem n***az wanted the j**els It happened so quick, no time to get afraid First instinct was to run like a slave Me and Schoolly Boy was boxed in My man Hugh's a few feet away, with a pound at his face I looked, son in his eyes cause I know how he is While the other f*ggot n***a had the gun in my ribs I thought - f**, sh** 'bout to get buckwild Popped off my chain, threw it with a Coke and a smile Thinkin leave already, but them n***az wasn't done They went in our pockets for change, numbers and bubblegum Now - how low can a lowlife get, askin what size are my kicks? Like I'ma say 8 and sh** To myself I was sayin I'ma MURDER this kid But thank the Lord they didn't peel back my wig The jux wasn't longer than a minute to Mush Then them n***az tried to tell us, do the Carl Lewis No backshots buddy, I began to walk backwards And bust my a**, it all happened so fast He thought I was shot, starin at me in shock Turned around, them n***az was gone, vanished up the block There was no escapin what not With toasters in your face, maintain and respect the drop Word up You hear that?
