Verse One: E-40
When I was fifteen years old

Timin a** think of slangin crank (think of slangin griqua)
Situation critical: phone home, phone home
Talkin on my digital: call phone
Ya seen a boatload of situations, for dangleations
Invalid ghetto pa** late a** registrations
Boy I tell you sh** is pitiful, damn!
Vocally repentable, dead right!
I try to stay away from artificial (artificial)
Plastic a** (plastic a**), pleather motherf**in individuals

When you hittin dips better check yo' clips and
Watch the police and the Bloods and the Crips

Or you can stay broke while your homies is rollin smokes
And sippin yak and smokin dank and tellin jokes, haha

Verse Four: 40 Thevz
Peep game from a young a**, rollin on the one way
Foot to the gas got the indo mixed with hash
Monday through Sunday and all in-between

Ain't no busters or no s**ers on my team or in my mattress
Just call me the Pimp
And you can call me the Rat
Watch my feet hit the tracks it, ain't no lookin back
I'm on a mission tryin to put my f**in click on the map
But these n***as don't know the half
Runnin with riff raff but I got some game for your b**h a**
Cause your game is weaker than an anorexic
I exercised my game until I had my game perfected
I wrote the game on paper then I put the game on record
You better check it n***a don't you every disrespect it
