Livin In The Bay

As a youngsta I've always been around some funk
 I'm watchin niggas duck from buck shots of the pump
 Bein around this shit made a nigga violent at times
 Servin D the dope was beatin em down if they don't sell mine
 Cuz you know that's how the fuckin game goes
 Niggas gettin beat with bats gettin stalked with steel
 Toes a nigga was no older than thirteen or fourteen
 When the bank was on I cocked a gun from a dope fiend
 Little six shot, 38 special
 When the bank is on you got to beef strong livin up the ghetto
 Me and my niggas walkin around straight gasin
 Mug on mean funkin wit niggas all in my classic
 Four deep is how niggas roll up in Frisco
 And everywhere you go a nigga got to pack a pistol
 The beef is back on but I don't really know the reason
 Supposed to be a truce but niggas start bangin
 So I'm lettin it be known I'm fadin niggas with the chrome-9
 Me and my niggas walkin around with Macs and the 45
 So how you wanna handle your biz ya bitch made mark
 Leave ya dead to the head in Ocean View Park
 Cuz when the bank is on niggas comin out the cuts
 Wit artillery in their hand ready start to buck
 Have them bitch made niggas tryin to make my day
 Cuz that's how it is when you're livin in the bay
 [Chorus]
 Comin up in the bay it's like a mothafuckin zoo
 The Bay Area ain't no joke
 Every nigga do whatever the fuck he gotta do
 The Bay Area ain't no joke
 Boom boom boom was the sound that I heard
 As I walked to the turf and took my hide cuz I was perved
 Thinkin to myself I hope my niggas ain't hit
 Cuz you know niggas dyin young over stupid shit
 Ran to the turf to see what happened
 Find out my niggas was cappin at some niggas that was gasin in a Cut
 Freeze classic come to find out it was them niggas that we was funkin wit
 Ain't gonna say no truce to set cuz I be startin shit
 But you know how the story goes livin in the bay
 V-Town, Oaktown, Richmond, and E.P.A.
 Frisco words goin down all the fuckin time
 For all young niggas on the bang when they on the grind
 Niggas walkin around packed packin nines and carryin Macs
 In they nuts or they draws pocket a crack sack
 Po's on the turf waitin for some shit to go down
 Niggas comin up short fuckin wit the fogtown
 Cuz in Frisco you never can predict
 Cuz in the town man the fog is just too thick
 And niggas gettin smoked comin up short where I live
 Another dead body washed up by the Bay Bridge, nigga
 Cuz that's how it is where youngstas livin
 Where niggas always takin and they never givin
 So you better listen what I gotta say
 Cuz that's how it is when you're livin in the bay
 [Chorus]
 Livin day by day by the bay it's the same thing
 Niggas smokin dank sellin D and gang bangin
 Livin in the illy-ac-town of San Fran-psycho
 Where niggas doin drive-bys on motorcycles
 Got crooked ass niggas who jack for a livin
 But I can't blame a nigga cuz ain't nobody givin
 A mothafuckin thang so I bang for mine
 Even if it means robbin and killin when you're on the grind
 Cuz a nigga gots to have some type of funds
 And niggas kicked out the house can't have no moms
 And a nigga gotta do anything I can
 Even if it means rushin every set wit rocks in my hand
 And that right there tells you that life's a bitch
 A nigga got three strikes and they swung a pitch
 And that's how niggas live day by day
 Cuz that's how it is livin up in the bay mane
 [Chorus]
