Shade Sheist feat. Nate Dogg Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

This is where I want to be
Right here with my loved ones
Smokin' on some weed
You got chronic why don't you light it up

Now who's that kickin in the K for the West?
Shade pop with the flows that seep hoes in your vest
Half nigga with the word
Half run up in your spot to talk shit
Where I'm from, we prone to lick shots
Now Dogg Pound Gangstas but me up on game (up on game)
Now that I'm here a lot of shit gonna change
Mister quick to buy a chain, mister let the chain hang
Showin off the broads
I'm mister quick to get to bang
Now you might catch Sheist gettin bent in every coast
Still the nigga with the heat gettin rid of every coast
Still fuckin with Mizz, we run trizz when we bored
And you know I got the X, twenties what they hittin for
See me if you want to score, 'cause I got what you need
Or you can see me at the club, tinted SUV
Gettin in for free, I'm bout to get my name known
Sheist pull a heist nigga just to get it on

This is where I want to be
Right here with my loved ones
Smokin' on some weed
You got chronic why don't you light it up

Check this out
You see, how I figure this thing
We can, all take over this game
If we, come together do this shit right
We can, all have a piece of the pie
You know, how i figured this out
I just, took a little trip down South
Soon as, I set foot off the plane
It was, just like a family thing
You know, a gangsta's hard to decieve
So I, took a little trip to the East
I'm not, slow so I can wait for the game
I'm not, broke so I'm in bulletproof everything
When I, touch down it ain't like a thing
They ain't, trippin off nothin but things
So I, quickly disposed of my shades
If we, if we ain't got us nigga where would we aim

This is where I want to be
Right here with my loved ones
Smokin' on some weed
You got chronic why don't you light it up

Yeah
Show me somethin I ain't never seen
I step in the house-party with a gangsta lean
It's Dogg Pound Gangstas we strikin back again
Ready to ride in the Lac again
Givin it up for Mack 10 and T-Boz for doin it
This ain't nothin but a gangsta reunion
New York and California, the places to be
Nate Dogg and Kurupt broadcast for free
We at the DoggHouse where the dogs at
Who want to get with me?
Baby meet me in the back
Young Damien Young, this is number two
Ridin out room
Nigga what you want to do?

This is where I want to be
Right here with my loved ones




Smokin' on some weed
You got chronic why don't you light it up
