Geto Highlites

What you gon' play now?

Get on up

Get on up

Get on up

Get on up

Every geto got a different name, but they all the same

So Coolio loco gonna put you up on game

We got homies who sell straps, homies who sell crack

Homies who sell the bomb chronic sacks and fat dubs

Givin' the neighborhood ****' love

Pimps, players, suckers, hoes, forty thieves, gangstas, and thugs

Two hoodrats was scrappin' over who knows what

The loud mouth one loced up in front of the ice cream truck

And broke all her Lee Nails where the big G's live

The little homie be gettin' out on count, this time he might get stuck

Attempted one-eight-seven and he a minor with priors

So the DA want him tried as an adult

The big homie just had a son, no jokin'

I think his baby mama is smokin' 'cause she's always broke

And the young girls is dressin' more and more sleazy

And everybody and their mama talkin' about OJ and Eazy

To the hoochies in the Hondas and Sentras

Young **** fightin' their case with public defenders

Be your own good ride (Ride, ride)

These are the geto highlites

To the **** who smokin' Indo chocolate, tired of stress

**** who got warrants out for their arrest

Be your own good ride (Ride, ride)

These are the geto highlites

Slap boxin' with all the young hoochies watchin'

Dead cats in the streets playin' craps, **** catchin' dice with they feet

Think they got the funk, that one fool got stoked out 'cause he's a mark with a gun

The nosy bitch up the street called 911, now

One time his D jacked a **** and old bitch

License and registration, "All I got is a driver's permit"

**** can't have shit, we got dogs that rip but don't even trip

Welcome to Southern California

Liquor stores and churches on every other corner

Your little brother plays pop warner

Darks raided the dope spot, eight-year-old kid got shot

'Cause they mistook his BB gun for a Glock

And I ain't forgot about the homie Lano

He got killed by a sucker way back in the '80s, oh

I heard the homies mighties is ballin' out of state

He got himself off unemployment checks in Section 8

Ay, the homie's kickin' it real, yeah, I hear what he's sayin' Loc

Sometimes it's like that in the hood

Yeah, don't nothin' change in the game but the name

That's right, you know, that's right

To the young hustlers that's tryin' to stack that knot up

The house parties that's gonna always get shot up

Be your own good ride (Ride, ride)

These are the geto highlites

Community programs to stop the violence

All the **** who loced up durin' the L.A. riots

Be your own good ride (Ride, ride)

These are the geto highlites

The **** with all sixteen switches sittin' on D's

Who got jacked, he tried to pull out his Gat, bullets exit through his back

Now, his mama in all black and **** is goin' to the barber to get a fade

They carried their dead homie to his grave, pour out a little liquor

Homegirl down the street with the green eyes and big titties is gettin' thicker

Neighborhood clubs beat him up

And crack heads be sellin' TVs and VCRs

For forty bucks, so what's up?

Yesterday, the homie committed a bank caper

Saw the chase on the news and read the story in today's paper

His little girl just now takin' trainin' wheels off her bike

While the daddy got twenty-five to life at Fort Strike

The little homie just tripped and stripped

Because he didn't realize that the joint was dipped, that's right

OG's joinin' the nation and it's all good

BG's is retaliatin' 'cause they enemies done crossed out they hood

Crackhead mamas smokin' whole accountin' checks

Dope dealers who serve liquor pieces for sex

Be your own good ride (Ride, ride)

These are the geto highlites

Young **** goin' to school to be a doctor

Late night sounds of gunshots and helicopters

Be your own good ride (Ride, ride)

These are the geto highlites

To all the motherfuckers who think their shit don't stink

Rollin' on D's and then appear for robbin' banks

Be your own good ride (Ride, ride)

These are the geto highlites

This is just a little somethin' for a ****

That's still gon' be a **** if he don't get no bigger

Be your own good ride (Ride, ride)

These are the geto highlites

Get on up

Get on up

Get on up

Get on up
