Gansta's bangin, nuts straight hangin.
Chillin' in the alleyway signs straight wavin.
Up in the air round here they don't care,
Get Your motha fuckin melon busted for a stare.
Love pumpin through the heart flowin through the veins,
Pop a motha fucka like it ain't no thang.
Blood shot eyes from puffin on the bud,
Let me see that rag, Let me see that love...

(Shaggy 2 Dope)
Rollin through the hood, top cut down.
Car packed so full that its draggin on the ground.
Maxed with the homies, spittin on the hoe's.
Stop at the store for a cold 4-0
