In The Gutter
Pooh Man Lyrics

*kicking down a door*
Asserting dominance and demanding answers

(Pooh-Man) Bitch where the motherfuckin son at?
Expressing anger and demanding to know the whereabouts of someone

(Too $hort's Bitch) He not here ahhh it hurts!
Pretending to be in distress to protect someone

(Pooh-Man) Old Skool get this bitch eh! where $hort at?
Enlisting the help of others to find someone

(Too $hort's Bitch) Pooh he's not here I don't know
Claiming ignorance about someone's location

(Pooh-Man) Give that nigga a message bitch!
Threatening to deliver a message to someone

*Gunshot*
Displaying aggression and intimidation

Ain't No Love $hort
Expressing a lack of loyalty and love towards someone named $hort

We be takin shit in '94
Engaging in criminal activities and taking things by force in 1994

In the deuce we ain't bullshittin
Asserting that in their neighborhood, they are serious and not messing around

I want it all
Desiring to possess everything

I want your jewelry, your motherfuckin car
Desiring someone's valuable possessions, including their car and jewelry

I want your whole safe nigga
Desiring access to someone's safe where they store valuable items

Yeah take off the motherfuckin Nikes
Demanding that someone take off their Nike shoes

What are they Fila
Questioning the brand of the person's shoes

Take the motherfuckers off mark
Insisting that the person take off their shoes

Grab my coat and my motherfuckin glock
Preparing to go outside with a gun for protection

Now I'm headed out the door to the motherfuckin spot
Leaving the house to go to a specific location

Got a G bundle for the brothers who be slanging
Carrying a bundle of drugs to sell to other drug dealers

And an extra clip in my coat for foo's who be banging
Carrying an additional magazine for the gun to be ready for any conflict

The town of macks is gettin way hot now
Referring to the neighborhood becoming more dangerous and violent

Police be tappin my phone and getting me locked down
Feeling constantly monitored and restricted by the police

But it's an everyday thang if you slang
Accepting that being involved in drug dealing comes with constant risks

20 zips gone in a matter of an hour man
Selling 20 packets of drugs quickly within an hour

But I stay skeptic about fools that I deal with
Being cautious and mistrustful of the people they do business with

You slip once you get your cap peeled real quick
If you make a mistake, you will quickly get shot and killed

'cause nigga's are shistey as fuck!
Warning about the dishonest and treacherous nature of some people

Going to drop off some yeh and your ass jacked the fuck up
Attempting to deliver drugs, but getting robbed and beaten up in the process

By some nigga's that you know baby
Being betrayed and attacked by people they are familiar with

'cause most nigga's on your block straight be shady
Implying that the majority of people in their neighborhood are untrustworthy

Out to get a grip no matter what it takes
Being determined to make money by any means necessary

Make a mistake and find your ass dead in a fuckin lake
Receiving a deadly punishment for making a single error

With bullet holes in your body
Being shot and killed

Because you ran into the neighbor hood John Gotte
Encountering a dangerous individual named John Gotte in their neighborhood

Faulty as hell ass brother
Describing someone as unreliable and untrustworthy

Yeah just anther damn day in the gutter
Accepting that their life is filled with constant danger and violence

You nigga's got something I want
Asserting their intent to take something from others by force

I'm taken it I give a fuck where your from mark
Showing no concern for the person's background or location

That's right nigga
Affirming their own superiority and dominance

Motherfuckers like us be takin shit in '94
Referring to themselves and their associates as criminals who commit robberies in 1994

7 deuce in the motherfuckin house beyatch
Representing their neighborhood (the 72nd street) in a confrontational and derogatory manner

What the deuce look like nigga
Asking someone to describe their neighborhood

Any nigga I tell is a fake ass studio gangsta
Claiming that anyone they label as such is a fake gangster who only performs for attention

Leave the punk ass shit behind ya boy
Encouraging someone to abandon their cowardly behavior

Come to the deuce and find out what it's all about punk
Challenging someone to visit their neighborhood to truly experience its reality

Another jack move another nigga to get with
Planning to make another robbery and victimize someone

Up in Milwaukee with mighty on the mark us
Traveling to Milwaukee with a group of people known for their criminal activities

They gotta look with 100K with ease
Targeting someone who appears to have 100,000 dollars easily accessible

So we kicked in his door and put him on his knees
Breaking into the person's house and forcing them to kneel down

Open your safe or loose your face
Threatening the person to open their safe or face severe consequences

And turn it to 11 to a motherfucking murder case
Warning that if the person doesn't comply, they will be killed

He opened the safe and accepted the loss
Complying with the demand and losing their valuable possessions

But the fool seen my face so I had to tear his off
Realizing that the person saw their face, so they had to kill them to eliminate any witnesses

125K made in one motherfuckin day
Celebrating the large amount of money they obtained in a single day through crime

Back to the house to split the cash
Returning home to divide the money among the group

It equaled out to about 41 G's and a half
Calculating each person's share of the stolen money

Money seen money gone brother
Explaining that money can easily be lost or used up quickly

Mighty Mone just looked and said just a dead motherfucka
Referring to someone they killed as worthless and insignificant

Yeah you punk ass nigga
Insulting and belittling someone

Don't get into the game if you can't stand the heat killa
Warning that they shouldn't engage in criminal activities if they can't handle the consequences

'cause real players know
Implying that they consider themselves skilled and experienced in their criminal endeavors

That there's always a nigga who will jack you for your cash-flo
Recognizing that there will always be someone waiting to rob them of their money

And you just met the brother
Highlighting the fact that the person they killed was someone they had only recently encountered

And he's straight from the motherfuckin gutter
Describing the person they killed as coming from a place of poverty and violence

(Pooh-Man)
Self-identifying as Pooh-Man

Yeah you nigga want some motherfucking funk
Challenging someone and asking if they want to fight

The bottom line is this you can meet the T *gun cocks*
Asserting that the ultimate outcome of their encounter will result in violence and potentially death

And after that it's all the fuck over with
Stating that once the confrontation begins, there is no turning back

What that deuce look like nigga (what it look like)
Demanding the person to describe their neighborhood once again

Yeah we be puttin nigga's on their mothafuckin backsides
Boasting about their ability to physically defeat and humble their opponents

Back in Cali at my mama's
Returning to California and being at their mother's house

And already got involved in some motherfuckin drama
Being immediately caught up in a troublesome situation

Mom's said Moe called he needs you to page him
Receiving a message from their brother Moe, asking for them to contact him

Some foo's in a Mustang GT tried to blaze him
Explaining that some individuals in a Mustang GT attempted to shoot Moe

So I hit him up on his pager
Contacting Moe using a pager

He answered me quick
Moe responded promptly

And I'm like so what sup player
Expressing casual conversation and asking Moe for more information

The funk is on once again
Referring to the presence of danger and confrontation

Break out the Thompsons, the AK's and the Mack 10's
Preparing and arming themselves with various firearms for protection

I called up Antoine and Old Skool
Contacting Antoine and Old Skool for assistance

Meet me at the spot you know this fools ain't cool
Arranging to meet at a specific location due to the presence of dangerous individuals

Hopped in the national and got sideways to the curb
Getting into a car and driving aggressively to reach their destination quickly

Picked up Mellow with Moe Betta on 83rd
Collecting Mellow and Moe Betta from a location on 83rd street

They filled me on the way
Receiving updates and important information while en route

While Moe Betta slowly loaded up the AK
Moe Betta took the time to carefully and methodically load the AK-47

Told me Moe was at some bitchs house
Informing that Moe was at a woman's residence

They came in and damn blew out my partner brains out
Describing a violent incident where Moe's brains were shot and killed

But he got off fast
Explaining that Moe managed to escape quickly

And put 1 outta of 2 on their motherfuckin ass
Referring to Moe shooting and possibly injuring one of their attackers

As we was talking we spotted the brothers
While in the midst of a conversation, they noticed the individuals they were looking for

Cut off the lights
Switching off the lights to create a tactical advantage

*Gunshots*
Engaging in a gunfight

Just another day in the gutter
Describing their lifestyle and experiences as consistently dangerous and violent
