Once upon a time there lived a man
In a place that's known as East Oakland
He can rap to the beat like all the rest
So rough hanging tough in the wild wild west
With his gangsta waves and gangsta hoods
He made friends with dealers and crooks
And when the party was on you knew he had come
It is like Gladis Knight and its five oh ones
Walking right up to the dj man
And give another emcee's rap
Cuz they knew about him and his gangsta rap
The fact they just couldn't manage that
He was known around to be the best
So rough hanging tough in the wild wild west
In a land where whips will watch the car
Tell you everything and they still want more
Where live is only give and take
In a land where the strong control the fake
He was known around for all the time
Everybody went wild when he said his rhyme
Said his manly man would come out
With his gangsta ride his turn back side
Out like Jessie Jackson in a land
Where game that controls the lane
Yes the wild wild west that's the place
s**ers take a bite and don't even taste
The California lifestyle that I live
When the sun rolls out every chance it get
The wild wild west that's where you see
Emcee rappers make you look like weak
Cuz you would never hang in the wild wild west
Without your six-shooter and your bulletproof vest
You can get down but I don't know where
You come out here you better act scare
Cuz we don't play don't come my way
When you sudden didn't fight you will say
Front me cuz you'll front yourself
I'll leave you standing there mad as hell
You can rap your best that's what you do
You just can't hang and you know its true
Like a homeboy said its one two three
West coast raps straight to the beat
You got have a lot of game to spit that rap
I wanna put a little game to her just like that
Too $hort I thought you knew
You can't count three and then skip two
It just won't work but you might try
To front a emcee from seventy five
Girls G.I.R.L.S. so fresh
Emcee rap through the wild wild west
Making you look weak cuz we don't play
All you s**er emcee's do you hear me say
Front me... front me...
Once upon a time there lived a man
In a place that's known as East Oakland
He can rap to the beat like all the rest
So rough hanging tough in the wild wild west
With his non-stop rapping and his west coast style
He had the whole damn party just going wild
Singing rhymes all time back to back
Turning every party out with the west coast rap
That's when the s**er emcee all came to be
Nothing but everyday s**er emcee's
They were all his friends all his fans
Walk right up and shake his hand
And you always knew everytime
s**er emcee's wish they could rhyme
Just like pimp but what's the fact
The fact they just couldn't hang with that
They were all frustrated all rapped out
Didn't even know what to rap about
Homeboys do you agree
And not worth kicking like a s**er emcee
Cuz much talk fresh and all them mad
s**er emcee's couldn't make him mad
With a rap like his a rap like that
There never was time for a s**er to rap
The s**er emcee would just wait his turn
s**er emcee's don't wanted to get burned
What emcee do you play
He had the s**er emcee's all running away
Didn't want none you couldn't bring them back
They never could deal with a real big mack
One emcee was the best
So rough hanging tough in the wild wild west
There was one emcee who knew the tip
And the s**er emcees don't even trip
So tell it to the world it's not too wise
To front an emcee from seventy five
Girls G.I.R.L.S. so fresh
Emcee rap through the wild wild west
Making you look weak cuz we don't play
s**er emcee's do you hear me say
Front me... front me...
Once upon a time there lived a man
In a place that's known as East Oakland
He can rap to the beat like all the rest
So rough hanging tough in the wild wild west
Just a true emcee didn't cash the checks
Singing that's like this or rated X
Hanging like a champ with a heavy weight rap
No emcee could rock like that
To a point that paid again and again
Saying wouldn't stop till he got a benz
I never thought about it till the other day
He had top drop rolling away
In a eighty five or eighty six
Said he got paid cuz he raps like this
You could see it in his eyes he was seeing stars
Choosing folks and caviars
Just checking out the girls walking down the street
In the wild wild west that's where you see
The freshest emcees you will say is soft
From seventy five girl so raw
Like silky see and hollywood
They come so fresh cuz you know they could
Like sir Too $hort when I'm on the mic
West coast rappers rap all damn night
So watch how you talk in the wild wild west
East coast rappers make us look fresh
With the "say ho and everybody scream"
East coast rappers make all the green
With a New York rap and a New York slang
Not too many could spit that game
Now the time has come and I'll tell it right
About a rapper like me who will rock the mic
I'm trying to wake you up on the western coast
Were giving you more than just the locs
Its everything you could never have
Took and spent your money to buy my rap
The wild wild west that's what its called
About the west coast rappers that stand so tall
The freshest emcees you'll say you saw
From seventy five girl so raw
Wild wild west
