[Verse 1: Slip Capone]
Recognize, realize, and analyze
Born in the place they call gangsta
Hawthorne, Californ-I-A
All the way to Philidelphia, PA
Pass gall project, Richard [?]
Around the corner from the bank, the steady B robbed
Respect the bandana
Banana clip in the hammer, smoking Joe Frazier
Street lights, street fights, three strikes
Khakis and street nights, what it look like?
Gambling, three dice, see the blue and red lights
Shootout with police like free Ice Mike
Handcuffed in the back seat of the car
I swear to god, life shouldn’t be so hard
S O S, same old shit, it never fails
A white man’s heaven is a black man’s hell
[Hook: Philly Swain]
From gutter to gutter, hood to hood like
Philly to L.A., we living the hood life
From the days of getting the hood white
To nowadays we living the good life
Gangsta living, a gangsta cinema-a
Gangsta living, we can’t pretend for ya
Gangsta living, a gangsta cinema-a
You get out of line, we putting an end to ya
Recognize, realize, and analyze
Born in the place they call gangsta
