Got That
MC Eiht Lyrics

Blue Stamp
Starting with the official acknowledgement of Blue Stamp as the symbol of the album.

Brenk we gon' get 'em on this one
Brenk is the producer, and MC Eiht is hoping to achieve something special towards this album.

Let's get 'em LOC
LOC is a lyrical reference to List Of Cripset. Get that reference.

I'm one hundred from the hood point of view (cheah)
From the honest, accurate perspective of one who grew up in a ghetto.

West-west y'all, hood niggas stay true (west)
Referring to Westside, Los Angeles. One hundred percent of hood guys remain faithful to their origins.

My jeans still sag, the color still blue
I still look, act and dress the same way I always have.

Hood shit, nigga, spit cheah, only a few
The art of rhyming in a hoodish style comes to a few people only.

That's what it do LOC, I don't flip
This kind of lifestyle, in which I talk and rhyme about gang wars, is just a part of who I am. I'm not a follower or a sellout.

Gang shit for the grip, Compton don't trip
I'm doing this gangsta music for money but I'm confident I won't get into any more trouble physically.

And it's so necessary I don't follow the speech
It's crucial for me to be real and unique, not to copy anyone's style.

My motto be the hollow point slug for each
My lyrics with real guns and drugs are as lethal as hollow point bullets.

Fuck the radio, ban me, they can't stand me
I don't care about getting airplay on the radio station. Because they dislike me and refuse to feature me.

Never winnin' a Grammy, still gon' jam E
I won't win a Grammy, but my music will still be as appreciated.

Bitch give a fuck about swag
I'm uninterested in fashion trends or an impressive image.

I'm a real D boy check the duffel bag
I'min actuality a drug dealer, just take a look at my bags.

Compton 'til I die, or somebody kill
I'll always stay true to where I grew up, at least until I die or if someone kills me.

The hood got me back like that for real
The hood always supports me and my music.

Nigga, chill, got it back on lock
Calm down, I have everything under control.

That real deal heavy weight flood the bock (cheah)
My heavy, genuine, compelling music will flood the block as if it were heavy rain.

You reppin' the hood, Eiht?
You rapping for the 'hood, MC Eiht?

Got that!
Hell yeah!

You smokin' that good, Eiht?
Are you smoking the finest marijuana, MC Eiht?

You reppin' the West, Eiht?
Are you representing the West Coast, MC Eiht?

Leave it to your nigga to bring the streets back and uh
Let your homeboy bring back the authentic sound of the hood.

History of violence
The background of deep-rooted aggression in the hood.

Move in silence
Act and speak discreetly because the streets don't forgive disloyalty or betrayal.

Compton make it bang, here's your daily guidance (uh huh, uh huh)
Compton is the epicentre of the best of the West Coast rap, and here's your daily dose of guidance.

Nigga, I be the truth
I am the embodiment of the real and pure.

Every line is mines I spit in the booth
Every rhyme that comes from me is genuine and legitimate.

Tryna make that shit that make you feel good
I try to create music that's authentic and enjoyable.

Never commercial, Eiht real hood
I'm not interested in creating inauthentic commercial music and only doing what real hood guys do.

Who would? Nobody but your nigga
Nobody else, but me.

Rep to get dough just like he should (cheah)
I make music and earn money for it and isn't that what I should do?

Eiht never change programs
I'll continue to do genuine West Coast rap music.

Dance records, muthafucka slow jams
I'm not interested in creating popular dance music or slow-moving ballads.

For the bitches that smoke and love real Gs
I make music that speaks to the women who enjoy smoking weed and guys who are authentic OGs.

Nappy ass head niggas with tatts like hes (ch-cheah)
Dudes who are nappy-haired with tattoos anywhere on their body, including here - on me - are true OGS.

Please believe (uh huh), yes indeed
I say things that are real.

Eiht keep it straight till our mind's off greed (yes)
My music will always be pure as long as we don't focus on making money.

Cheah, give 'em what they need
Yeah, let me give real West Coast rap music to the fans who need it.

Real dead, watch suckers mislead
Realness never leaves me, but fake guys will try to copy me.

Cheah, it's hood shit when the streets start yellin'
It's true West Coast rap when the streets in the neighbourhood get excited and started talking loudly.

That West Coast dope, muthafuckas keep sellin'
It's the addictive and authentic sound of West Coast rap that keeps selling.

Anybody tellin', keep spreadin' word
When you see someone real and authentic, let others know.

Authentic to the ear, so pure you heard
The music is as genuine and true-to-life as the people who create it.

Everything is bomb
Everything is fantastic when we're keeping it real.

When the real gon' drop so these niggas gon' die (ching!)
Real, authentic music is making its arrival, signifying fake guys no longer have a place.

Stop in the name of the streets
Don't waste your time trying to represent the streets if you can't keep it real.

These niggas tryna serve y'all bakin' soda bleach
Fake guys are serving you their awful music with no real talent or connection to the streets.

Tryna eat all top when their shit don't pop
Fake guys are trying to pass off their music as quality, even though it's lacking substance.

In the land of the lost, scream hell is hot
These fake guys will soon be rejected by their fans and die off.

One shot make me kill niggas chance
I don't have a lot of patience, and just one thing will set me off and make me more violent.

Indeed take a chance, be the circumstance
You need to take a chance to become a factor in the music industry.

Eiht got the flava of the year
I have a unique, distinguished sound.

Gangsta 'round here with my nigga Premier
I am the most legitimate gangsta around, and I'm with one of the most acclaimed producers premier.

Steer clear for the weapon's test
Stay out of the way if the warfare starts.

Enemy to your hood so they make an arrest
If you consider me your enemy, the law may come to arrest me, and only me.
