Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I'm gettin' dizzy as the world keeps spinnin' like a frisbee
Gangstas and girls make the world twirl
No hesitation, I can run a nation from incarceration
Thirty years is what I'm facin'
But give me seven seas and eleven gees
I make enough cheese to bring wall street to its knees
**** please, I got enough guns
To fill the Empire State buildin' full of ones
Go to school is what you tell us
But **** in school is scared of the goodfellas
We got the yayo, you can just say no
But nobody makes a fucking move until I say so
That's how it is, that's how it's gonna be
Kids, when you grow up, who the fuck you wanna be?
Like me, your black superhero
Got enough zeros to hire Bob Shapiro
Yo honor, I'ma have to get rid of ya
Because it ain't no trivia about my flat in West Bolivia
I blew the jury a kiss, they rather dismiss
Them swim with the big fish
You fuckin' guppies
[Verse 2]
Gangstas make the world go round
[Verse 3]
Not just saggin', wavin' my flag and never will
I ease up **** so stop askin'
See, I was taught as a tiny loc on the set
It's all about the pussy and money, fuck the rest
**** this tech is quicker to collect when I'm seekin'
All the jewelry and the money, so miss me with that preachin'
Teaching, fuck all that bullshit
I wanna slang yay' like Noriega, sit back watch my paper
Collect like the IRS
As I kick it with fifty bitches all on my dick just like the president
And like the police, I want a gang of killers all on my side
That's down to lie more crooked that St. Ides rip ride
On my behalf as I call shots
As if I was Saddam Hussein, jacking muthafuckas
For Dana Danes hated by many but I don't care
'Cause I rather be feared than loved with a pocket full of dubs
'Cause gangstas, gangstas make the world go round
And if you want a piece, then you better be down
So quit chastisin' me, analyzin' me
And like the escorts look over your shoulder, **** it's plain to see
Crooked ass cowards
[Verse 4]
Gangstas make the world go round
[Verse 5]
Three sixty degrees like my D, the world be spinnin'
**** been sinnin' since the beginnin'
History is a trip, so I peep when I'm readin'
**** probably grew weed in the garden of Eden
Before big ballin', sex, cars and loot
It's like bitches been scandalous bitin' forbidden fruit
But gangstas don't deal with that shit on the west side
And since they regulatin' hoes, I roll with the best side
So check it as my lifetime is tickin'
Comin' up strong, lickin' and flippin' chickens
Need cheese in amount of Gs
I gave up sports to slang keys
But blame it on my knees
Make sure I got what I need to make up your order
Everything to baggy triple beams to jugs for my water
Like a snitch, life's a bitch, a world full of drama
Drug paraphernalia being found by my mama
Trauma brings the sad song your mama sings
Just serve your ass on your way to kill a king, ****
So now I stand with heat in hand
For my whole life span
'Cause evil lurks the land
Plus, I got a packet with this gang bang jacket
Gotta hold it, keep it loaded, devoted since quoted
For sure one knows got the ups on these pranksters
While the world keeps twistin' as a west side gangsta
[Verse 6]
For life, ****
Gangstas make the world go round
West side is the best side
Gangstas make the world go round
Hit brick for the nice slick, ****
Gangstas make the world go round
West side
Gangstas make the world go round
Ice Cube on the don of the clique
Gangstas make the world go round
Love C but I down with this connection
Gangstas make the world go round
Mack 10 straight stompin' and chicken hockin'
Gangstas make the world go round
