Check Yo Self
Ice Cube feat. Das EFX Lyrics

You better check yo self before you wreck yo self
Be careful before you ruin or harm yourself

'Cause I'm bad for your health
I am a negative influence on you and can cause harm to you

I come real stealth
I am very sneaky and hard to detect

Dropping bombs on your moms
I am causing trouble for your mother too

Fuck car alarms
I do not care about car alarms or the noise they make

Doing foul crime
I am engaging in illegal activities

I'm that nigga wit'cha Alpine
I am the person who stole your car stereo

Sold it for a six-o, always let tricks know
I sold it for $60 and I always tell prostitutes that I have money

And friends know we got the indo
My friends and I have marijuana

No I'm not a sucker sitting in a House of Pain
I am not a weak or naive person who is easy to manipulate

And no I'm not the butler, I'll cut you
I am not a servant and I will harm you

Head-butt you, you say you can't touch this
I will hit you with my head and you claim to be untouchable

And I wouldn't touch ya, punk mothafucka
I don't want to get close to you, you worthless person

Here to let you know boy oh boy
I'm telling you, emphatically

I make dough but don't call me Dough Boy
I make money but don't refer to me using that nickname

This ain't no fucking motion picture
This is not some fake, staged event like in movies

A guy or bitch-a, I'll get wit'cha
I will get you regardless of whether you are male or female

And hit you taking that yack to the neck
I will attack you while you are drinking alcohol

So you better run a check
You better investigate and protect yourself

So come on and chickity-check yo self before you wreck yo self
Be cautious and check yourself before you suffer the consequences

Chickity-check yo self before you wreck yo self
Check yourself before you harm yourself

Yeah, come on and check yo self before you wreck yo self
Yes, be cautious and check yourself before you get into trouble

'Cause shotgun bullets are bad for your health
Bullets fired from shotguns can be very harmful to you

Tricks wanna step to Cube and then they get played
Prostitutes try to approach me but I deceive them

'Cause they bitchmade pulling out a switchblade
They are cowards who use switchblades to threaten me

That's kinda trifle 'cause that's a knife-o
That is not a serious threat, knives are nothing

Ak-47, assault rifle, hold the fifty
I have extremely powerful weapons

I'm nifty, pow, I gotta new style, watch out now
I am clever and have a new way of doing things, beware

I hate motherfuckers claiming that they folding bank
I dislike people who claim to be wealthy or successful

But steady talking shit in the holding tank
But they keep bad-mouthing others in jail

First you wanna step to me
At first, you wanted to confront me

Now your ass screaming for the deputy
Now, you are calling for help from the authorities

They send you to Charlie-Baker-Denver row
They send you to a high-security prison in Colorado

Now they running up in you slow
Now, other inmates are assaulting you

You're gone, used to be the Don Juan
You're finished, you used to be charming to women

Check that shit out, now your name is just Twan
Look at that, now your name is just a common one

Switch it, snap it, rolling your eyes and neck
You are snapping your fingers and moving your head and neck

You better run a check
You better investigate and protect yourself

'Cause big dicks up yo ass is bad for yo health
Having sex with men is dangerous and harmful to your health

If you're foul, you better run a make on that license plate
If you are shady, you need to investigate the license plate of a car

You coulda had a V8, instead of a tre-eight slug to the cranium
You could have had a V8 engine, but instead, you will have a .38 bullet in your head

I got six and I'm aiming em
I have six bullets and I am targeting you

Will I shoot or keep you guessing
I may or may not shoot you, you won't know until it happens

'Cause fuck you and that shit you stressing
I do not care about you or your problems

Bitch get off the wood, you're no good
Leave the area, you are not useful or valuable

There goes the neighbourhood hooker
There goes the prostitute who is ruining the reputation of the community

Go ahead and keep your drawers
Keep your undergarments on

Giving up the claps and who needs applause
Having sex and getting diseases, who needs recognition for that?

At a time like this, pop the coochie and you dead
In this kind of situation, having sex will get you killed

The bitch is a Miami Hurricane head
The woman is addicted to cocaine

Sprung, niggas call her Lips and Lungs
She is addicted to sex, and people call her name based on this habit

Nappy dugout get the fuck out
Pubic hair is not welcome here, leave

'Cause women like you gets no respect
Women like you do not receive any respect

Bitch you better run a check
You better investigate and protect yourself
