[Intro]
An Adolescent May Hunger
For A Sense Of Power
Especially If That Youngster
Has Few Things In Life
No Money Little Education
A Broken Family
And No Cultural Attachments
To His Community
Analyst Say Teenagers
May Find Power & Fear
Through A Street Gang
(Whats Up Little Homie)
And That is Why Gangs
Are Growing So Rapidly In The United States
(I See You Over There Throwing Up The "H" At All Them Passing Cars)
We Want To Belong
(I See You Over There Hitting Up The Wall)
We Wanna Belong To
Realization Of We're Expected
(What's Up, You Wanna Get In The Barrio?)
Where You're Feared
(You Need To be Getting Money Every Year With Us)
Where There's An Opportunity For Mexicans

[Verse 1: Conejo]
My Fam Came To This Country
For A Better Life
If You Could Call The Slums
A Better Life
For A Man And His Wife
And His Newborn Son
Ese Trouble Was Brewing
His Destiny Was Upon
His Mind Strong
He'll Be A Leader To Some
When He Get To The Stage
Of The Drugs And Guns
We All One
I'm Understanding This
First Time That They Raided
I Was Only Six
It Was 6 In The Morning
Feds At My Door
They Snatched Pops Up
On A Federal Warrant
That's How It Was
For Many Years To Come
Daddy-O - On The Run
It's Like Father Like Son
It Seemed Right
My Race Smuggled The White
And It Felt Like A Gamble
Under Them City Lights
No Strikes
And My Record Was Clean
I Got Jumped In The Hood
So This About To Begin
[Hook]
Ese Life
Survival And Murder
Muthafuckers Selling Dope
On My Neighborhood Corner
Then It's Life
Survival And Murder
Gotta Run Up On His Ass
Muthafuckers A Goner
Ese Life Survival And Murder
C-O-N Getaway
And Dispose Of The burna'
Then It's Life
Survival And Murder
Investigation In The Works
On A Street Gang Murder

[Verse 2: Conejo]
The Survival Of The Fittest
Only Strongest Survive
I Know You Heard This Saying
Fucken All Of The Time
The Temperature Climbed
To A Hellish Inferno
Ese Young Tiny Locos
They Get Busy With Burners
Gotta Watch Em
Guerrilla Warfare
On Some Vietnam Shit
Not For The Hearing Impaired
You Vatos Scared
This Ain't A Place For You
Ese Massacres Take Place
On The Avenue
Then - Them Pigs In Suits
Investigates The Crew
Then Start Pinning Murders
On The Whole Damn Hood
They Instigating
A Gang War Between Us
The Cops Started Dropping
Ain't Nobody Could See Us
The G-O-V
Ese Gave Em The Go
But We Get Mo ' Doe
Cause We Trafficking Blow
We Stay Low
And Try Not To Get Known
But That's Something Hard To Do
When Politicking The Zone
[Hook]

[Verse 3: Conejo]
East And West Homeboy
You Know They Pray For My Death
But No Matter How They Came
I Stayed A Step Ahead
I Fed Em Lead
From The Fucken Banger
My Minds On My Hustle
All My Life Been A Slanger
O.D.'d 3 Times
3 Times Came Back
I Performed On Your Block
And Got The Shit Jam Packed
Enemies Cruised By
I Got The Eagles Eye
So I Put The Red Beam
Between The Drivers Eyes
Then I Fucken Celebrated
The Rebirth Of G-Rabbs
Blazed 8 O's
Out The Greenest Smoke Bags
Know That
I'll Put The Strap To Your Face
I'll Put A Whole In Your Head
And Disappear You - No Case
Just A Taste
Of What My Life's Become
The Cops Wanna Kill Me
Cause A G's On The Run
But I Ain't Worried
They Could Show Up At Once
They Want The Bounty On My Head
They Better Bring More Guns
