[Intro: Melle Mel]
Yo man, I wanna grow up to be a OG, just like my man Money Loc, a OG, that's right, an original gangster, man, I'm a classic, man, I got the talent, all I need is a toolie, I just wanna be a OG, man
Yo, little brother, instead of trying to... Round up the posse!... be a OG, you better quit watching that TV before I come on down here with some... Stop the violence! ...you know what I'm saying, man? OG...psst
[Verse 1: Melle Mel;Van Silk]
Screaming always damage my ears
The people running in fear, the hour to devour is near
Pandemonium, chaos, total destruction
Tragedy portrays an eerie seduction
Gunshots, fist fights, even knives
People getting hurt, others losing their lives
No doubt about it and you can't deny it
What started as a quarrel turned into a riot
Bodies laying out all over the ground
Blood spattered everywhere, people getting beat down
Inner city children going out with a bang
It sound like a war, but it's a street gang
Stop the violence!
[Chorus]
"What's the matter with your world?"
"Oh yeah"
"What's the matter with"
[Verse 2: Melle Mel;Van Silk]
Yeah, kid
A drive-by, I heard somebody died
In a pool of blood, the brother's mother cried
"Lord, please bring my son back alive"
He shot back like a trooper, he didn't take a dive
He had a gun in his hand and his blood was in the street
Bullet holes everywhere, even the bottom of his feet, boy
The drug deal took a terrible twirl
The car was definitely red but he shot the wrong girl
'Cause life in the gang is a thing that's real choosy
You don't get paid, but you learn to use a Uzi
Nobody wins and what's really a trip
The Bloods lose blood and Crips go to the crypt
Stop the violence!
