Interlude

[Intro]
True to the streets
Compton Ass AV
Lemme talk that shit

[Verse 1]
I remember I chose this rap shit
A nigga was only sixteen
But I had big dreams
Of bein' on that big screen
How we s'posed to make it outta the slums?
From the city of Compton, niggas askin' where you from?
Whatchu bang? Where you hang? Where your granny stay?
We shootin' dice, takin' fades in tha alley way
A nigga drop, buys a standard, we do that on the regular
They shoot at us, we shoot back, et cetera, et cetera
Was searchin' for us when that gun go off
Wonder how a mother feel when her son don't call
It's a cold game, because a bullet ain't got no name
Niggas be in that slow lane, tryna get out the dope game
Take some time to say your prayer for the ghetto
'Cause Compton murder rate is on a whole 'nother level
Niggas dyin' over colors everyday
Niggas hustle, niggas struggle and we pray
That life goes on, thank God, I hope we make it
All I got is family and homies for motivation
And what I know you waitin' for is all to get it right one day
Yeah, one day, I'm just a boy from the hood
