[Hook: E-40] I remember when the world went crazy back in 1985 I remember when rock c**aine used to be rich man kind of high 'Til one day in my neighborhood motherf**ers started havin' fetti They was hangin' on the corner yellin' "BASE ROCKS ni**a!" Bumpin' Too Short "bl**job Betty" [Verse 1] 11-15-67, n***a, learn about it A nine-pound breach baby, future alcoholic Hit the cradle with a big a** naple, young beginner Attended pre-school in North Vallejo, Country Club Crest child care center First grade elementary, Loma Vista, walkin' the hobo trail Bobbin' and weavin' after school, snotty nose Fistfightin' in the battlefield Thumps, box of matches, lumps Live down the street from coochie dippin' drive With the girls and guys I'm prepared for the worses, moms and pops divorces Time to switch the scene, smob to Magazine Government grilled cheese, single-parent inner-city sh** Only way to get yours was to get out there and pull some sort of illegal sh** Way before the distribution of the c**a plant n***as was pushin' gra** Residue from the hemp, concentrated hash My folks from the hood helped raise me Can you remember when the world went crazy? [Hook] [Verse 2] Now it's 19-eighty-fifth And I haven't quite made my way up to a unit yet My sinister game was boomin' But I haven't quite made my way up to a unit yet Standin' in front of my next door neighbor's house I made my own set, money was comin' to me Turf fired up, base rock boomer Only n***a in the town besides cokin' sidin' in the Cougar LL had the bumble, and so did Bobby Jimmy's Everybody in Vallejo a** was on grimmies Smash through Foley Park with tremendo Claimin' hella fame in a dopefiend rental From a nickel and dime a** n***a To a top hat ballin' big rigga, b*tch! [Hook] [Verse 3] Livin' it up to the fullest Never thinkin' about givin' it up Maybe it will, maybe it won't be foolish to get up out of dodge Drove to Grambling College Me and that n***a B-Legit on some ol' 'D-Shot, I'm home sick' Ripped back on the shrine, garglin' Rossi wine From turf to turf, when it goes from worst to worse Ain't no f**in' merch, gotta go for what it's worth Young Ive, where you at? Me, you and cousin Kaveo On the two-four twist like this Suga, E-40, D-Shot, Legit Never had no ideal that we would become The Click Shot the game to the left, got it up to par Now that's how the f** you become a rap star [Hook x2] [E-40 talking] C-L-I-C-K in this motherf**er It's 40 Water on a solo shot Smeb, smeb, smeb [* Sips *] [* Burps *] Swervin' b*tch! [Repeated 4X] BASE ROCKS...BASE ROCKS ni**a!!!
