Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Boys and girls
Gone
[Verse 2]
I remember in the '80s, me and Pops would rock
In a '70 Chevy with the drops in slot
Use to pass me Pepsi Cola while he drunk him a pint
Tippin' through the South side, runnin' a light
Use to have me up in Third Ward checkin' his traps
Collectin' his scratch, protection' his snaps
Use to always tell a ****, "Keep your mind on paper
Bitches in your head, you keep your eyes on paper"
'Cause a ****'s definition is a killer for scratch
You kill a motherfucker, you kill him for that
You got caught up in this shit, that means you fucked it up
Old man was spittin' game so I sucked it up
Old enough to do my own thing, got me again
Flip my second paycheck to cop me a lid
Went and seen my homie Short Dawg that slide me a track
Went to Mase's Pawn Shop, got me a gat
Didn't know this crack shit I got my uncle to cook
With my eyes on my paper, I just fumbled and looked
Impatiently waitin' for the pot to boil
Man, I can't wait to see your rock from oil
Put my work upon the table and it's startin' tonight
Time for me to bring Brad Jordan to life
Sat my ass upon the corner till it started to bounce
Glock scratchin', reached out, and started her out
It wasn't long 'fore I was goin' for nine
I'm seventeen around millionaires goin' for mine
And if you got off in my way while I was headed for that
They found your ass misplaced with your head in your lap
And **** is gettin' shiesty with time
That's why you never see me with a partner in crime
I'm down and dirty, ****, fuck the world
And that's what separate the Geto Boys from girls, come on
[Verse 3]
Fifth Ward is the spot where **** get shot
Hoes sell cock and every block is hot
**** start shit, but they don't start it with Bill
'Cause them motherfuckers know their blood gon' spill
Ever since I was a kid growin' up in the bottom
I beat a ****'s ass, if I didn't, I shot him
Never gave a fuck about his family cryin'
Bottom line, better his than mine
You come around me with that live shit, I kill it fast
I throw a search party for your fuckin' stankin' ass, ****
'Cause it's a motherfuckin' rep thing
You got a set of nuts, you better let them motherfuckers hang
Even if you're facin' twenty years, you never rat
You do your time and you come on back
And if he a homie he really take care of your people while you're gone
And bless you when you come back home
Do your time and don't whine is the motherfuckin' anthem
That's the type of shit most **** can't phantom
Them bitches tongues come unfurled
But that's what separates the Geto Boys from girls, come on
[Verse 4]
I bet you often wonder how **** survive in a drought
You got jacked and took six and died in your house
And motherfuckers sat and grieved your death
One of them motherfuckers counted up the keys then left
Kinda strange how the game, it took a change for the worse
Split the brain, get the 'caine, and get back to your terf
And keep the jack you did up under your hat
'Cause if the word got out you killed him, then they killin' you back
I never thought that '86 would bring me trouble again
But these **** on some up shit, like double your pay
And gives a fuck about respect and joy
So how you figure **** got respect for a ho?
But then again **** always put their trust in a bitch
But in the end it's another **** bustin' your shit
Fucked around and had to flee the world
'Cause you couldn't separate the Geto Boys from girls
[Verse 5]
Geto Boys is the motherfuckin' shit
Never forget them southern **** made your mind play tricks
Nevertheless, I left the group in '91
**** was mad, I had my gun
They had they guns too, I wasn't snoozin'
'Cause I knew that if it came down to it, they would use 'em
If it was goin' down like them, I didn't give a fuck
We was gon' tear this whole motherfuckin' city up
And ****, that's real comin' from the South
You wack-ass rappers watch your motherfuckin' mouth
Preachin' that positive bullshit, that you can save
'Cause your positivity ain't gettin' motherfuckers paid
It's GB and Willie D reunited
Sendin' **** back to the studio to get they shit tighter
And **** thought it wouldn't happen again
But we sat down and settled our differences like men
And put the bullshit behind us
'Cause fuckin' off money ain't a plus, it's a minus
We did what other **** too big to do when they twirl
And separated Geto Boys from girls, come on
