Regulate
The Infamous West Coast Lyrics

Regulators
We enforce the law and prevent anyone from stealing someone's property.

We regulate any stealing of his property
We stop any criminal activity regarding theft or robbery and effectively enforce the law against such criminal activities.

We're damn good too
We are highly skilled at our job and are well-equipped to handle any kind of criminal activity.

But you can't be any geek off the street
To join our gang, you must be capable and proficient with weapons because our job requires precise and competent handling of firearms.

You gotta be handy with the steel
You must have proficiency with guns, specifically steel firearm to join us and contribute towards our goal.

If you know what I mean, earn your keep
If you are skilled with weapons, our gang is the right fit, and you can earn well by working with us.

(Regulators)
Repeating the chorus to reinforce their message of enforcing the law against stealing or property.

It was a clear black night, a clear white moon
The setting was a calm and serene night with a clear sky and moon shining brightly in Los Angeles.

Warren G. is on the streets, trying to consume
Warren G. is roaming on the streets, craving and on the lookout for some female company.

Some skirts for the eve, so I can get some funk
He is looking for some women to spend the night with and have some fun in the process.

Just rollin' in my ride, chillin all alone
Lonely and aimlessly driving around in his car, hoping to find some female company for the night.

Just hit the eatside of the L.B.C.
Making his way to the Eastside of Long Beach.

On a mission trying to find Mr. Warren G.
Trying to find his friend, Warren G., to spend the night with and have some fun.

Seen a car full of girls ain't no need to tweak
Noticing a car full of women with no reason to be alarmed or anxious about the situation.

All of you hoes know what's up with 213
All the women in the area know about our gang named 213 and what we do.

So I hooks a left on the 21 to Lewis
Taking a left turn on street 21 to Lewis street in pursuit of Warren G.

Some niggas shootin' dice so I said "let's do this"
Encountering some people who are gambling and wanting to join in on the dice game.

I jumped out the ride, and said "what's up?"
Exiting the car and asking about the gambling game and how it is played.

Some niggas pulled some gats so I said "I'm fucked"
Some people in the gambling game pulled out guns, making him feel overwhelmed and powerless to control the situation.

Since these hoes peepin' me I'ma glide and swerve
Noticing some women, he decides to drive past them and swerves in the hopes of seeking their attention, as he is trying to impress them.

These bitches lookin' so hard they straight hit the curb
The women are giving him intense attention, causing them to lose their focus and hitting the curb in the process.

Now they droppin' and yellin', it's a tad bit late
The women realize they missed out on the opportunity, and it's too late now.

Nate Dogg and Warren G had to regulate
Referring to themselves as the regulators, and that they have to take action to deal with the situation at hand.

I'm gettin' jacked, I'm breakin' myself
I'm getting robbed, I'm surrendering myself.

I can't believe they're taking Warren's wealth
He can't believe the robbers are taking away Warren's prized possessions.

They took my rings, they took my Rolex
The robbers take his jewelry, including his Rolex watch.

I looked at the nigga said "damn, what's next?"
Sensing that his fate was sealed, he's wondering what else the robbers are after.

Ain't none of them seeing if they going straight pound for pound
The robbers are not aware of the power and caliber of our gang members and would be no match for us.

But niggas talkin' big shit before they start to clown
The robbers' trash-talking before acting would only make us underestimate them.

I best pull out my strap and lay them bustas down
To protect ourselves and prevent theft, we need to use guns and punish the robbers.

I'm tweakin' into a whole new era
Entering and being fascinated by a new era of music or culture.

G-funk, step to this, I dare ya
Challenging the audience to dance and enjoy the catchy G-funk beat.

Funk on a whole new level
Taking the popular funk music genre and taking it to a new level with our G-funk genre.

The rhythm is the bass and the bass is the treble
The bass sound is the driving force of the rhythm, and it enhances the sound quality of the treble notes.

Chords, strings, we brings melody
We bring a new melody to our music with the use of guitar chords, strings, and other instruments.

G-funk, where rhythm is life and life is rhythm
In our music, rhythm represents the essence of life, and life is all about maintaining a good rhythm.

If you know like I know
If you are familiar with our music and lifestyle,

You don't wanna step to this
You don't want to mess with us or our music because of its unique style.

It's the G-funk era, funked out with a gangsta twist
In this moment in time, our music is the embodiment of G-funk, with our own unique Twang brought through the gangsta touch.

If you smoke like I smoke
If you are a fan of smoking, just like us,

Then you're high like everyday
Then you must be high most of the time, as smoking becomes an everyday habit.

And if yo' ass is a busta, 213 will regulate
If you are not part of our gang, we will regulate your behavior and maintain law enforcement.

Just like I thought, they were in the same spot
As he thought, his friends have been waiting for him to rescue them from the robbers.

In need of some desperate help
They are in a desperate situation and need his help to get out of it.

But Nate Dogg and the G child were in need of somethin' else
His friends need more than just his help to solve their problem.

One of them dames was sexy as hell
One of the women in the area was extremely attractive and caught his attention.

I said "Ooh, I like your size!"
He compliments the woman's curvy figure with his spontaneous remarks.

She said "My car's fucked up
The woman shares her concerns with him about her faulty car,

And you seem real nice, would you let me ride?"
Asking if he could help her get a ride to her destination.

I got a car full of hoes and it's goin' real swell
He now has a car full of women and is having a great time driving around.

The next stop is the Eastside Motel
After picking up some women, they head to the Eastside Motel to continue the festivities.
