We gon set it off like this

(Verse 1)
y'all niggas want to toss on me
Throw sum
Get ready for the hot one here it come
y'all scream like bitches scheme my riches
Too suspicious my Glock rocks to your jaw
Nigga just too vicious land of the lost
Who's the boss get tossed have you seen her
My Nina, she's catchin a misdemeanor
My rep gets bigger my finger on the trigger
I cocks the hammer back like 'fucks you nigga!'
I let loose shells fly like the [?spruise-goose?]
Push weight protects mine, much juice
I hoo-bangs with a gang and slangs caine
Fuck what you tryin to get nigga, it's my thang!
[??] cops more white and hit claims
I serves everything from white to mary jane
I'm hittin the one times with a fake last thing
Just to keep my ass on the streets, in the game, it's automatic

(Chorus)
I represent the hoodrats and the B.G's
The niggas on the corner whop white to make cheese
If you want some then niggas bring static
It's automatic

(Verse 2)
You need to get at me, I'm the G
Locin and provokin dips blocks with cavi
Search a ki' cross the street and smash out
The '63 bounce back to the same route
You fools best get the fuck off my cold tales
Gang tales of how the fuckin dead body smells
Late night horror shows in jail cells
Represent where you from no one to tell
Life ain't nuthin but the hood and snaps
Hoodrats carry work with straps in they laps
Quarter niggas with nicknames play craps
Enemies tryin to cross the front line
Get capped nuthin but escape, uh
Second flat my gat let loose like 'Rat-a-tat-tat'
The underground hero guess y'all is back
My custom, my khaki suit and a blue cap, automatic

(Chorus)

(Verse 3)
I make it difficult for a nigga to find me
Crazy-ass Hoo-Bangin G's behind me
You're fucked up for that last time fo' sho'
Now you know, two in your door, four to the floor
Any nigga want to bring it-bring
I guarantee your ass will hear the glock sing
Quick to hit out like [name] the street king
Shells ricochet up your body, ping ping
Eazy don't come to [??] pound
West to the chest

On the contrary I shots down your post
You're gettin next to me, uh, too close
Close down your whole block froze down
Infiltrators end up-no sound
You sorry muthafuckas here's your showdown
Eiht caught a hot one now I'm county-bound, automatic

(Chorus)

(Outro)
Geah

I like to dedicate to the late smooth R&B artist and the man I love Tyrone Davis who has passed away from
a complications of a fatal stroke at the age of 66 at Mount Sinai Hospital on February 9th, 2005 in
Chicago Illinois. My favorite song is In The Mood and I fell passionately in love with that sexy tune and
I like to slow dance to the seductive quiet storm by candlelight with Tyrone Davis and he'll take me in his
arms and caress my sexy body tenderly while the candles are still igniting the smooth and sensual
seduction in the nighttime. Also, in other words, I like to feel the waves of a steamy passion burning very
hot when we kiss that is so romantic and he'll make me surrender to his touch at the same time on a sultry evening. My heart is already on fire because the heat will be rising in the air tonight too. RIP Tyrone Davis.
Your smooth and sexy voice will always capture my heart and soul forever.

Oh yeah, I love the soulful sample of In The Mood by the late soul star Tyrone Davis and I want to feel the
fire at the stroke of midnight while the candles are still igniting the soulful and seductive mood in the
nighttime. Also, in other words, I like to move my sexy body from side to side to the romantic melody
while the lights are turning down low and the candles begin to flicker very brightly in the darkness.
And best of all, I want to feel the fire burning very hot with Tyrone Davis because my body has been
yearning for the sensual seduction and the heat of the moment on a sultry evening. RIP to the late
R&B star and the king of romantic Chicago soul, Tyrone Davis. Your dazzling music will continue to live on
because your voice is so smooth and sexy and I'm definitely going to be in the mood tonight.
Love you Tyrone Davis.

Smooth, sexy and seductive soul/R&B music will definitely put me in the seductive mood with the late
smooth R&B and night vibes star Tyrone Davis and I like to close my eyes and daydream about falling in
love with Tyrone Davis by slow dancing to the seductive melody while he held me close in his arms and
the candles are flickering very brightly in the darkness. My heart is already on fire because I like to feel
the sultry heat burning very hot while he caresses my body gently and sings that gorgeous soul
ballad In The Mood at the same time. RIP to the late king of romantic soul and the man I love, Tyrone Davis
Your smooth and sexy baritone has gotten me under a seductive spell when you sing In The Mood and it's
