One In the Chamba (1996)

[Intro]
FREEZE!
You, you, and you, up against the wall

[Benzino/Ray Dog]
Yo, shit, it's wild out here, dog
Ain't nothin' changed
As far as I'm concerned
It's them against us, y'know?
[?] beat me all the fuck up
Man, I'm tired of that shit
Yo, fuck that, ma- ayo, Rhome, man, tell 'em what the fuck is up

[Verse 1: Almighty R.S.O.]

[Tony Rhome]
Shit ain't never gonna change
'Til more cops get blasted
How many niggas gotta get they ass kicked?
How many niggas gotta die inside a cell again?
Before we revolute, shoot, and raise Hell again?
This ain't no racial shit, 'cause both black and white cops
Are bitch, and down to let you go when you snitch
So fuck a snitch and the cop [?]
Kiss my hollow point, I split ya, then fake 'em up

[Benzino/Ray Dogg]
Pull over, get out, license and ya registration
Next thing you know, you're cuffed up and down at the station
I'm gettin' fed up with this everyday bullshit
I swear on God, these motherfuckers gonna make me flip
It's bad enough they from the same hood
The same school, got a badge, now they act like a fuckin' fool
Put one up in the chamba (Once!) Slide one up in the chamba (TWICE!)
The third time represents three for the strike!

[E-Devious]
Now, why you cops on my D and
Harassin' my whole C-lique
It's all poli-T-ics
That's why we got the G-lock
Pon C-op, for the war, heatin' on the B-lock
Got the extended C-lip, with the rubber G-rip
If you ever wanna T-rip
You know who I be with
Whoever try to endanger
Feel this hot one in the chamba!

[Scratched hook x4]
One in the chamba!

[Verse 2: M.O.P.]

[M.O.P.]
It's the man!

[Lil' Fame]
That's always talkin' and breaks the peace

[M.O.P.]
It's the man!

[Lil' Fame]
Y'all think you wanna decease the beast
'Cause separate race must be the basis
And get they wig pushed back, the body should be found in different places

[Billy Danze]
I know, and every time they harass me
I sense if I flinch, they gon' fuck around and blast me
That's the impression that they gave us
So I feel like gettin' ill with steel, like Mr. Larry Davis

[M.O.P.]
Here we are!

[Lil' Fame]
Posted up with the felons
Livin' the most, with killers and neighborhood drug sellers
It's just a ghetto thing, for me to get strapped
With 21 hard rounds and let this heavy metal swing

[Billy Danze, (M.O.P.)]
Gun blazin' (FOR WHAT!?)
He was fuckin with me first
Worst came to worst, so I opened him up
In the (ILL SIDE OF TOWN!), [?] ground is dangerous
(M.O.P. TO THE DEATH, KID!) yeah, with one up in the chamba!

[Hook x4]

[Interlude: Smif-N-Wessun/Cocoa Brovaz]

[Tek]
[?] hold me down, [?]

[Steele]
I got you, kid

[Tek]
Drinkin' the [?], and mixed with the [?]
Got me more pissed about it than a motherfucker

[Steele]
Yeah, I see the po-po creepin'
No doubt, no doubt

[Tek]
[?] mind watch one time, man

[Verse 3: Smif-N-Wessun/Cocoa Brovaz]

[Steele, (Tek), *Both*]
Ayo, Tek, which one of these suspicious characters you know?
(Neither)
Me neither, so keep the heater low 'cause I know you see the
*P-I-G, eyes grillin' me*

[Tek]
Thinkin' I had no idea he was a D

[Steele]
'Cause he young up in the face, talkin' [?] and rockin' [?]

[Tek]
Sport a insulated vest and let his jewels shine halfway

[Steele]
He got a partner by the name of Dirty Harry
Whose twin brother Larry shoplift everything he could carry

[Tek]
Remember Dirty Harry got a partner by the name of Kirk
Kirk is a captain at [?]'s undercover work

[Steele]
Think we moonlightin'

[Tek]
High stakes type gamblin'

[Steele]
Movin' OZ's for G's is his way of panhandlin'

[Tek]
He harassed us, robbed us, and papi of the [?]

[Steele]
Watch us

[Tek]
[?] us

[Steele]
And put fake charges 'pon us

[Tek]
The homicide cruisin' by in the [?] 5

[Steele]
Seein' fingers in the back, pointin' fingers as they drive by

[Tek]
Crime preventers, supposedly [?]
Pain, they send us upstate and give us different sentence

[Steele]
As they contemplate, I drove the blueprints to movements
Stand with my P.N.C. and get ready for the revolution

[Hook x4]

[Beat until fade]

[Outro]
That's what 'One In The Chamba' really is
Be on guard, be prepared
Just another sayin'

[Benzino/Ray Dog]
It just means that you gotta be aware
And that there's police brutality out there
