Lyrics
[Verse 1]
These streets be
Crazy
These streets be
Crazy
Always up to no good
Crazy
Always up to no good
Crazy
[Verse 2]
Walking down the avenue
From Hollywood to South Central
Long Beach to Compton
Cray
Crazy
Van Nuys to Santa Ana
Crazy
[Verse 3]
Have a look outside and take a stroll with me
California lifestyle, you wanna roll with me?
I can take you in and out and where it's gonna be
Now as crazy as it is, you know this home for me
[Verse 4]
I wouldn't never leave it, you know that's wrong to me
I'ma stay down, you see me on the corners, G?
And your local liquor store, gettin' some optimums
And if I'm out of bounds, then I gotta cock the fo'
[Verse 5]
Keep it on the low, on the W-w-w-west coast
Sign some autographs and then I do get ghosts
Yeah, I love my folks
But half of y'all fools is cutthroats
[Verse 6]
On the real, no, the streets'll have you
Guide you, lead you, mislead you, it's fragile
Yeah, see you gradually grow
And when you walkin' on my side, I think you all need to know
[Verse 7]
These streets be
Crazy
These streets be
Crazy
Always up to no good
Crazy
Always up to no good
Crazy
[Verse 8]
Walking down the avenue
From Hollywood to South Central
Long Beach to Compton
Cray
Crazy
Van Nuys to Santa Ana
Crazy
[Verse 9]
On the 1-10 Freeway flow, back to the block
In the seven deuce coupe, hoppin' hippin' the hop
Sippin' on some Henn with my nephew, infrared
Young pimp on the grind, tryna line up some head
[Verse 10]
Had fun, did, done, on the West we run
Don't matter where you from, if you old or young
Seesaw, we raw like ooh, la, la
Fuck the law, we don't get caught, we just do, da, da
[Verse 11]
Yeah, ****, we shakin' the cops
You **** out there just be makin' it hot
But don't trip, if you fakin' a lot
I'll break you, shake you, and take yo' spot
[Verse 12]
'Cause if you think that you gon' slip through California
Without gettin' banged on
Brother, you're wrong
[Verse 13]
Always up to no good
I really love my dog, grew up together and all, but he
Always up to no good
Hell yeah, I love New York, that's why I married the broad, but she
Always up to no good
We can't hang no more 'cause I'ma balla, ya'll and he
Always up to no good
Let me tell you about these streets
Always up to no good
[Verse 14]
These streets be
Crazy
These streets be
Crazy
Always up to no good
Crazy
Always up to no good
Crazy
[Verse 15]
Always up to no good
Always up to no good
Always up to no good
Always up to no good
Always up to no good
[Verse 16]
Walking down the avenue
From Hollywood to South Central
Long Beach to Compton
Cray
Crazy
Van Nuys to Santa Ana
Crazy
