Why Oh Why
Warren G Lyrics

This nigga to give it all to me with the cut
This person is giving me everything I asked for in a drug deal

Get the door
Could you please answer the door?

Yo whats up? What you need?
Hello, what do you need?

Hmm? Yeah
I'm listening

I'm out
I'm leaving

Hop in the '6-3 Chevy, countin boutin the heat
Get in the '63 Chevy, counting the amount of drugs we have on hand

Scapin through the streets with my niggas bumpin' hellafied beats
Riding around the streets with my friends while listening to great music

See us, niggas play for keeps, kill the strong and the weak
We are dangerous people who will harm anyone who gets in our way, regardless of their strength

From the Eastside of Long Beach, that's 2-1 Street
I am from the Eastside of Long Beach, specifically 21st Street

See we, live and die by the gun and the knife
Our way of life involves violence and the use of weapons

And I, high as a kite, corrallin through the night
I am very high on drugs and roaming around the city at night

Ha ha, stackin' hundreds, we kept the drugs and hoes comin' (Come on)
We are making a lot of money from drug dealing and prostitution and plan on continuing to do so

Young gunnin', tortured, no need to be punished (Yeah)
We are young and reckless, without concern for any consequences or punishment

All we have of the system is big cabbage
The only thing we have gained from society is a lot of money

Lifestyles is lavish, livin' my life from Dallas
My lifestyle is luxurious, and I live my life as if I were rich and famous

It was a challenge, livin' my life like a savage
It was difficult to live my life in such a violent and uncontrolled manner

To have or to not to have it or nobody can have it
I must have what I want, even if it means that no one else can have it

Un-touch-able, inde-struct-able
I feel untouchable and indestructible, that nothing can harm me

Get in my way and we're dustin you
If anyone gets in our way or opposes us, we will harm them

As a kid this the type of shit that we dreamed of
As children, we dreamed of making easy money by being involved in crime

Money, cars, bitches and drugs
We are motivated by the desire for these material possessions

I prevail, the crack sales then got in jail
I was successful in selling drugs but ultimately ended up in jail because of it

Couldn't post bail now my home is livin' in a cell
I was not able to pay bail, so now I am living in a jail cell

Thirty years with no parole as I grow old
I have been sentenced to a long time in jail with no possibility of parole, which means I will grow old there

It's the A, Team, operation regime
Our group is like an organized crime syndicate

Money and dreams got me hooked with schemes
My desire for financial gain and success drove me to make reckless and dangerous plans

From the Time Square walk to America's best
I have gone from a simple pedestrian walk in Time Square to being the best in America

Long Beach is the spot, got a lot of respect
Long Beach is where I am from and it is a place where I am respected

'Cause I'm a vet, regulate and never hesitate
I am experienced and confident in what I do, and I act without hesitation

I stay hungry so fill my plate
I remain motivated and ambitious, always seeking more success and wealth

I'm just a young black nigga tryin' to flip an end
I am just a young black man trying to make a lot of money through illegal means

Five year probation, nigga fuck the pen
I have five years of probation and I will do whatever it takes to avoid going back to jail

It's just a way of life, nigga shootin' the dice
This is simply the way we live our lives: taking risks and gambling

Now you hit all craps, now you payin' the price
When you make risky decisions, sometimes you will lose and face consequences

G, Dove, we, mob
We are a group or gang, made up of G, Dove, and others

Killin' all y'all, that is our job
Our primary goal is to harm or kill anyone who opposes us

And if you thought it was The Gang then you hit it on the knob
If you thought we were part of a larger gang, then you would be correct

Slide and flip like cocoa bricks, takin' your 6
We are moving quickly and smoothly, taking your car and abandoning it without its wheels

And leaving it on the side of the freeway on bricks
We leave the car on the side of the road missing its wheels

Schitzomanic, automatic, schizophrenic, six
We are unpredictable and possibly suffering from mental illness, and have a weapon or gun with us

It's just a psychosomatic, original
These actions and lifestyle choices are a result of our fears and psychological issues, and are unique to us

Dogg Pound criminal, ya ever heard of me?
I am a criminal affiliated with the gang called the Dogg Pound, do you know who I am?

Kurupt, Young Gotti, motherfucker D-P
I am Kurupt, also known as Young Gotti, and I am part of the Dogg Pound gang

Why is life fucked up? Toe-up
Why is life so difficult and messed up? It's a mess

Scrapin' from the flo' up to the ceilin', the fo's bust
We are struggling and trying to make money, but often failing and ending up in bad situations

For my children to grow
I am doing this in order to provide for my children and support their future

We live to let go, nigga
We live our lives in a way that allows us to be free of responsibilities and repercussions

Why oh why, why oh why, why oh why
Why is it that we do what we do?

It's only for the money
Our primary motivation for this lifestyle is financial gain

Do we live in dangerous lives?
Are our lives inherently dangerous and risky?

It's just the gangsta life we live
This is simply the way we choose to live our lives as gangsters
