Lil ½ Dead Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

It all started back in 83'
It's when I first came an O.B.G
The set that I claim was the L.B.C
And none of these niggas couldn't see H.D (why's that)
'Cause I got it going on

I'm flocking new bitches and my paper is low (like what)
Like the beach and the city I'm from
And H.D dogg getting bitches sprung (off what)
Off the dick, so take an lick
And hurry up and get out of my face you trick ass bitch

'Cause I don't give an fuck about a hoe
Even though I got in the game in 94'
I still got it going on and I bust an gain bitches because my game is strong
And hoes be clocking me, straight jocking me
In the party even if I'm with somebody

Why should a nigga ever try to be
So mother fucking fresh and fly as me
And why should a bitch should ever lie to me
That gangsta ass nigga name young H.D

[Chorus 2x]
Young H.D why is he such an old B.G.E

Now H.D Dogg is an mack you see
I been on a mission since 83'
The city that I well is the L.B.C
H.D Dogg will stay an G

Be on a mission clocking ends and shit
And he be on the mission try to check an bitch
He be on the mission try to straight get paid
He be on the mission and try to have it made

So I could live like the rest of them
And when it's time to floss, I'm with the best of them
Living lavage and straight be clocking ends and shit
Cause I'm going to keep going and it just want quit, shit

I'm going to stay fly to I die and every single day I straight get high
Off drank or maybe even off of some bomb ass weed
Why should I be an O.B.G?

[Chorus: x2]

I beat you down like an boxer
Got your girl and rocked her
Never ever jocked her, she talk shit I socked her
All in her mouth cause I got some much class

If their a party in her house I'm turning it out (that's right)
That nigga H.D in the place to be
and I'm still see walking on 21 street
It's me the little nigga that would never drop

Playing keys and cavi and just won't stop
Clocking fat ass knots and I got four stops
'Cause I got three glocks in case you want to get shot
It's hot in the spot where I slangs my dope

Don't coming around tripping we ain't no joke lock
You gets smoke like an fat ass joint
And right about now you reach the turning point
In your life for fucking with me
And why should I be an O.B.G?





[Chorus: x4 ]

'Cause I got three glocks in case you want to get shot
I carry three guns in case someone tries to attack me


It's hot in the spot where I slangs my dope
The location where I sell my drugs is very dangerous and risky


Don't coming around tripping we ain't no joke lock
Don't come around acting tough because we are serious and we will retaliate


You gets smoke like an fat ass joint
You will get smoked or killed just like a fat joint would be burned down


And right about now you reach the turning point
And now, you have reached the point of no return


In your life for fucking with me
In your life, you made a mistake when you messed with me


And why should I be an O.B.G?
Why should I remain an Original Baby Gangsta when I could be much more than that?
