Kam - Keep Tha Peace lyrics

[verse 1: Kam (Warren G)] Fool with the Compton life (it's likewise) What would you expect and we both checkin' knots Buckin' shots, the Eastside's no joke So take a breatha if you neither a G or a loc And you can catch me in traffic Dippin' on gold ones under short skirts like a catholic But some of y'all need to grow up Settrippin' when I pa** by sayin' (What them n***az throw up?) When they know where I'm from I confuse em (Don't play don't remember uh.. here, m**m!) Everyday so I say don't get it twisted I'm talkin' bout yo cap ol' chap if you missed it But we only want peace The real question is who down to make war with these beefs Then which side should I ride on Don't blast give ya brotha a pa** say Aight go on But be careful who ya hit up Tryna get a rep or get that young a** lit up So get up n stand up fo' this black thang And yall brothers who g**n, try to keep tha peace [CHORUS:] [Snoop "Doggy Dogg World"] Put yo gun away run away cuz I'm back (why) Hit'em up, git'em up, spit'em up (now) [Kam] Stop the k**ing in the West and the East [Kam "Peace Treaty"] For the sake of all tha homies that's resting in peace! [Snoop "Doggy Dogg World"] Put yo gun away run away cuz I'm back (why) Hit'em up, git'em up, spit'em up (now) [Kam] Stop the k**ing from the West to the East [Kam "Peace Treaty"] For the sake of all tha homies that's resting in peace! [verse 2: Kam] Yeah I know you wanna be a hog And love doin' dirt just you and your roaddog On a hooride you glide, throwin' up ya sign This is Eastside BGs dumpin' with the nine On ya own kind fo' a strike, but let'em be white Then you pa** by the a** wipe Last night one time came thru the hood bustin' Find both, devils I ain't trustin' Us in the getto got it bad already But always wanna go to war over somethin' petty Steady puttin' work in on another Asiatic Assemble automatic, causin' crazy static Among brothers of the same flesh n bone Just say the wrong word and it's on A family feud, but this ain't no game show We just both got tricked by the same ho Oh but now you ain't down for no mission On a crooked cop or a prejudice politician Who you know can't stand yo' guts So stay home til you grow some nuts And just keep tha peace [CHORUS] [verse 3: Kam] Now they say it's on with the essays, right But I know Chicano pride So let's raise better days in jail so I'm quiet Tryin' not to get stuck in a race riot I came by it when I hear "That's the enemy!" Cuz I'm knowin' down deep they're some kin to me Still I gots to defend mine Between love & hate it's a thin line So I take it witta grain of soul Cuz I'n really not knowin' who to blame of folk For this tension I mention the skunk Got crews cavy, the blue-white punk Playin' both sides against each other Now that's the real mutha You gotta join on to your own and question is can we Keep it all in the family Stop lettin' outside people in your circle And take away everything that you work for Show love to yourself if you're willing To stop the k**er, we could stop the k**ing And you can keep the peace [CHORUS x2] "I know you got little guns... Again the foolest thing you got in your pocket you need to be ashamed of But I'm saying to you that with all your weapons, you're only hurting yourself Why young people are dying in the streets of America By the hundreds and by the thousands It ain't white people k**ing us It's us k**ing one another"
