The Bay - ( Original )

Let it go
 Let the good take hold
 I'm a brothah from the West
 Who was blessed with a soul
 Let me tell you 'bout a place
 You probably don't know
 We still live in Cali
 Got a style cultural
 We was
 Known from the 60's
 From panthers and hippies
 Now were known for
 Murders pimps and three-sixties
 Side shows high speed chases too
 And a crack epidemic that'l turn ya blue
 And an Aids epidemic that can end ya too
 It's the yay baby brothah and I thought you knew
 Oakland to Vallejo
 Vallejo to the Zay
 The Zay to the Sko'
 AKA as the Bay
 Unique so to speak
 In a whole lotta' ways
 We hardly get the love 'cause we close to LA
 We got our own slang
 But everybody took it
 Now we goin' dumb down the Ave drivin' crooked
 Chorus:
 This the way
 In the Bay (in the Bay heyeyeyey)
 In the Bay (heyeyeyey)
 In the Bay (heyeyeyey)
 In ya little kuddy cold from the Northern Pacific
 Beach always cold
 So don't get the game twisted
 Thugs reprocessed to the death packin' biscuits
 Weed almost legal the trees it's terrific
 We got
 Cannabis clubs
 Filipinos and Blacks
 Latinos from all over the map
 Chinese and Vietnamese
 So don't get jacked
 Samoans Indians Tongans Thais
 It's the Bay homie
 And we multiplies
 We never act shy when it's time to ride
 And we claim 2 Pac as a source of pride
 Said "we claim 2 Pac as a source of pride"
 Let it go
 Let me bless the flow my people
 Here we go here we go here we here we yo
 From the streets to the beach
 Flat lands to peace
 To the freaks in the deeps drivin' by (beep beep)
 To the heat 'neath the seat
 To the cops from the beat
 To the rich to the sweet
 To the poor to the weak
 To the youth and the beast
 HP 3rd Street
 (3 x's) telegraph to the Ave
 North to the deep East
 To the youth and the beast
 HP 3rd Street
 Telegraph to the Ave
 North to the deep East
 Chorus:
 This the way
 In the Bay (in the Bay heyeyeyey)
 In the Bay (heyeyeyey)
 In the Bay (heyeyeyey)
