Lil Ass Gee
Ice Cube Lyrics

Look at that lil' ass Westside doped out
Observing a young man with limited prospects who is corrupted by drugs and resides in the western part of the city.

Insane in the brain little nigga servin' caine
A young, emotionally unstable boy who deals cocaine.

Use to have to axe could he cross the street
This youngster was considered a danger and had to gain permission to walk through the community.

Now he's rollin' in a Gee the Gee is on E
Now, he drives a valuable vehicle that is running low on gasoline fuel.

He's quick to hit you up with the two fingers spread (whats up?)
He greets you with a typical gang sign

Don't roll that shit (whats up?) and hold that shit (whats up?)
He advises to keep a close watch on our actions and remain alert.

Now you know what fuckin' set he's claimin'
You can now determine which gang he is claiming to be a part of.

A wild little nigga and it ain't no tamin'
This youngster is uncontrollable, despite attempts to discipline him.

And just when you think everything is calm
Just when things seem to have settled, there is a threat of disturbance.

That motherfucker is the first to bum
That boy is the first to initiate a threatening or violent response.

Like bang, ping, catch you with the sleeper
He attacks unexpectedly with a dangerous tool.

He'll draw down and then check his beeper
He plans and executes an action and then checks his communication device for updated information.

He's clockin' them chicks and bucks
He searches and attracts female and male attention alike.

Gettin', his little dick sucked by the, clucks
He is receiving sexual favors from promiscuous women.

And will he do dirt? Fool oh please
Does he commit crimes? Of course, he does.

Little locs are harder then the O-G's
Youngsters are tougher than previous generations, and they defy old-established norms.

You fall to the ground and beg please
After being attacked, the victim pleads for mercy.

Just got served by little niggas on the 10-speed
They rob their victims by using bicycles.

12 years old, got bumps they can't keep
The boy has contracted a sexually transmitted infection that he cannot cure.

A straight killer, a fool, a lil' ass gee
The boy is delinquent who is prone to violence, foolishness, and belongs to a gang.

God damn, it's a trick
It is an issue that is impossible to solve.

Use to have the G.I.Joe with the kung-fu grip
He used to own the popular action figure with a unique feature.

Now he's straight Crip, or Blood
He has transformed into a full-fledged member of a specific gang.

Now ya sag, you use the blunt
He sags his pants and smokes marijuana cigarettes.

Now ya known as the favorite groupie
He is now recognized as a popular and valuable partner to gang-affiliated women.

Goin' to camp and it ain't Camp Snoopy (whats up?)
He is going to the juvenile detention center, but it's not a pleasant experience.

But I ain't surprised
This outcome was not unexpected.

It's 12 months later, year, I see you got a little size
A year later, he has matured and obtained physical growth.

You motherfuckin' crook
You are a criminal.

You want respect 'cause you didn't get'cha manhood took
He demands respect because he was not sexually assaulted in juvenile detention.

Drinkin' that 'yac like it's no tomorr-why
He drinks cognac in large amounts as if there is no tomorrow.

West side hustler fucker-tory
He is from the western part of the city and is a successful scammer.

In the jail and it ain't no thing
He is accustomed to being in jail and does not find it challenging.

Can't wait til you get 22's on the hang (Uh)
He eagerly anticipates obtaining significant muscle mass and physical power.

A underage boy that's lookin' tossed
A youth that resembles a prisoner seeking an escape.

And that's ya idea of who you hide
This is how he intends to keep himself protected and hidden from the law.

All you want for Christmas is guns and drinkers
His Christmas wishlist comprises firearms and alcoholic drinks.

Little nigga nuttier than a Snicker
The boy is as crazy as a Snickers bar.

You don't want to be like Mike, you want to be like me
He desires his peers to idolize him instead of other celebrities and role models.

A fool, a killer, a lil' ass gee
He is a small, foolish, yet dangerous gang member.

See, I knew it wouldn't be long
The artist acknowledged and expected this outcome to occur soon.

They got your ass stretched like Stretch Armstrong
He is physically restrained and immobilized, like the popular toy character.

In the one-man cell, it got'cha thinkin'
Being alone in a jail cell causes him to reflect.

Sendin' more kites than Benjamin Franklin
He writes many letters and utilizes jail slang to communicate with outside contacts.

20 years old but ya still a veteran
Despite his youth, he has had substantial experience with the legal system and prison.

Won't touch down til we're livin' like the Jetsons
He will not be released from prison until society is extremely technologically advanced.

Proud of ya self, because ya done done it
He is content in his criminal exploits.

Gotcha 22's and your name on your stomach
He possesses firearms and tattoos his name onto his abdominal region.

Never even think about a woman to fuck
He does not contemplate engaging in sexual relations with women.

Rather stand in line or bust the ass of a young buck
He prefers standing in a prison line or sexually assaulting younger male prisoners.

Got stuck, now you're bleedin'
He has found himself in a problematic situation and is now wounded.

Hospital ward, is got your reading
Medical professionals are treating him and monitoring his status.

Learn about the knowledge of self ya see
He is becoming more introspective about his personality and identity.

That ya mad enough to go and stick the death to these
He is so angry and ill-tempered that he wishes to kill his opponents.

See, it ain't about bein hard
Toughness is not required in this scenario.

But that's what'cha tell the little homies in the yard
He instructed younger, inexperienced men to act tough while in prison.

Ya already done did 10
He has already spent a decade behind bars.

And wish you could start all over again
He imagines restarting life with a fresh start and a new chance.

Brand new inmates and who do ya see
Upon reentering jail, he witnesses his younger sibling being incarcerated.

Your baby brother in shackles, a fool, a lil' ass gee
His younger sibling is also a prisoner and member of their shared gang.
