"True to the Game" (исполнитель: Ice Cube)
[Intro] Ay, yeah you, [bad word] You know who I'm talking to. Yeah, you that [bad word] that betrayed your homeboys and you ain't [bad word] #33; Yeah, you about to get your [bad word] ghetto pass revoked, [bad word] Punk [bad word] mark, [bad word] made. Punk [bad word] trick in a basket... You got caught up in the mix [Verse 1] It's the [bad word] ya love to hate, with a new song So what really goes on? Nothing but [bad word] up, but ain't that a [bad word] They hate to see a young [bad word] rich But I refuse to switch even though Cause I can't move to the snow Cause soon as y'all get some dough Ya wanna put a white [bad word] on your elbow Moving out your neighborhood But I walk through the ghetto, and the flavor's good Little kids jumping on me But you, you wanna be white and corny Living way out " [bad word] go home", spray-painted on your house Trying to be white or a Jew But ask yourself, who are they to be equal to? Get the [bad word] out Stop being, a Uncle Tom, you little sell-out House [bad word] scum Give something back to the place where you made it from Before you end up broke [bad word] around, and get your ghetto pass revoked I ain't saying no names, you know who you are you little punk Be [bad word] to the game [Break] Yeah, [bad word] Yeah, you thought we forgot, huh? Yeah, get a little money and moves out the neighborhood and [bad word] But you still ain't [bad word] [Verse 2] When you first start rhyming it started off slow, and then you start climbing But it wasn't fast enough I guess, so you gave your other style a test You was hardcore hip-hop Now look at yourself, boy you done flip-flopped Giving our music away to the mainstream Don't you know they ain't down with the team? They just sent they boss over Put a bug in your ear, and now ya crossed over On MTV, but they don't care They'll have a new [bad word] next year Ya out in the cold No more white fans, and no more soul And you might have a heart attack When you find out the black folks don't want you back And you know what's worse? You was just like the [bad word] in the first verse Stop sellin' out ya race And wipe that stupid [bad word] smile off your face Niggas always gotta show they teeth Now I'ma be brief, be [bad word] to the game [Break] Yeah [bad word] I see you got your fancy cars and [bad word] but you know what? You still ain't [bad word] That's right, I caught you slipping. You know I could've gat you, yeah, but I didn't even trip [Verse 3] message to the Oreo cookie Find a mirror, and take a look, Do you like what you see? But you're quick to point the finger at me You wanna be the big fish, you little guppy Black man can't be no yuppie You put on your suit and tie, and your big clothes You don't associate with the Negroes You wanna be just like Jack But Jack, is calling you a [bad word] behind your back So back off genius I don't need you to correct my broken English You know that's right You ain't white So stop holding your [bad word] tight Cause you can't pass So why you keep trying to pass? With your black [bad word] Mister Big But in reality, you're shorter than a midge You only got yourself to blame Get a grip, Oreo, and be [bad word] to the game [Outro] And Ice Cube practices what he preaches.
