[Intro]
These niggaz don't know who the fuck they fuckin with man
On the real shit nigga, this is Thugline nigga
And I'm that nigga Mr. Sawed Off Leathaface
And I dedicate this shit to all them motherfuckas who used to be down
want to be down, but can't never be down
And that's simple because we ain't fuckin with no punk pussy ass nigga
You know them niggaz that always talk the real shit

But they can never walk the real shit
Listen up this ones for you, for you

[Verse 1: Asu]
Soon as I hear these cheese
I'ma stick you like I took ya picture, Kodak smile
You know that number to dial when in need of work, I proceeds to lurk
Squattin and schemin plottin on demon
And It's a whole lot of semen in this dick
Packin bisquit, once the bisquits is baked
It boils down to the risk us niggaz take
Try Asu and leave ya loable to get floored
And if you ain't fully insured you ain't just asleep, nigga snore
I got somethin it (all things)
You got some Henny nigga pour it (we can all drank)
I done lost somethin I ain't tryin to find and I know it's love
Even though I'm dying inside, nigga is still a thug
The company I keep be wantin me to heat fuck boom
I don't really want to scorn, how I'm supposed to warn?
My folk once provoked, It's on and not gradually
Casualties is random, and like I tell 'em I dump naturally

[Verse 2: K -Mont]
Ay, yo, ay yo whatever you, saw I seen it
Whatever I say, I mean it
Most of y'all bitch niggaz wasn't thugs until Bone screamed it
Recognize the wisdom fuck that nigga shootin clips
Matter of fact I'm tired of talkin, pull you pistol keep walkin
Catch me on the puly wearin a hoody
Or standin on nigga lines, stressin, conversation about dyin it's Thugline

It's that nigga from Jerz, motherfucka it's K-Mizzy

[Krayzie]

If you like that, throw your hands up
I know you like that, throw your hands up

[Verse 4: LaReece]
Chaotic situations got a bitch stressin, holdin the guns
Dumpin on these trick niggaz for funds
Titties bouncin in the lo-lo, creepin real slow

Got your sister hostage {girl screaming}
You got my green if not, I lost it

It seems you don't understand my pockets pitfil
So it's critical that I get the dough right now
All your wants I can't satisfy needs
Can't determine do's and don'ts amplifies my greed to multiply my G's
You want war nigga? I got somethin for niggaz
Quick to bust the fouth-fifth for more figures
Standin on the Frontiline with my fan bam, Thugline

[Verse 5: Krayzie]
Call me the boos fighter, Frontline rider
Leathaface'll catch a case up in this place, we'll show 'em who bout it, bout

How the dealer stole and cut it, police won't even touch it
I'm a rich nigga come to my show and bring your bitch wit'cha
Two Thousand niggaz all screamin out loud "fuck the law"
And all y'all niggaz mean muggin me and my niggaz is my car
Partna don't get me started
y'all niggaz ain't seen me get retarted in that mode I'm harmless
When her bare arms we far from harmless
This is the bomb shit so ring the alarm
Takin over the yard, nigga Thugline's in charge
On guard a new clique, and we got new shit
These niggaz ain't nobody you want to fool with either, so be cool with it
Then niggaz won't have any problems
357 revolver is all it takes to squash an solve 'em
We all in this business to get paid
But meanwhile, we gotta go fight off the enemies that hate us for these styles
Made us some cheese, now fuck the world
Tell 'em Krayzie said it, will I ever switch?
Get out the thug shit? nigga forget it
I'm real with these niggaz, I chill with these niggaz
I kill for these niggaz, cause these my niggaz...

[Outro]

Overall Meaning

The song "Da Thugs" by Krayzie Bone is a classic rap song with deep lyrics that talk about the importance of being a thug and staying true to oneself. The song begins with a dedication to those who want to be down but can never be down. This is an implication that only a few have the guts to be true thugs who walk the talk. In the first verse, Asu talks about how he hears cheaters and sticks them. He mentions how he and his crew squat and scheme, always plotting on the demons. Asu also talks about the company he keeps, wanting him to heat fuck boom, but he doesn't want to scorn them. The second verse by K-Mont talks about how most people were not thugs until Bone screamed it. He also mentions how he is tired of talking and pulls his pistol walking. Krayzie contributes by telling about how they are in charge; Thugline is taking over the yard with a new clique and has new shit that never disappoints.

The third verse by Wish Bone is a more aggressive one that challenges listeners, saying that Thugline is willing and ready to dump, and they should get ready to be fucked up. Wish Bone asks how many people they roll with that they feel are real and, how many can roll and kill? He emphasizes that Thugline is about to take over and that he is coming for what he wants. LaReece also emphasizes this, stating that Thugline will always take over even with chaotic situations, with her guns blazing all over. She adds how critical it is to get paid but that enemies may hate and come for them.

The lyrics are intricate and multilayered, with each rapper telling their story from their perspective. The lyrics also emphasize the importance of being true to oneself, staying loyal to the crew, and always taking over. The song is an anthem for thugs everywhere, encouraging them to be real, even in times of chaos and danger.
