Thinka 'Bout It

Yeah! One time for your mind in the nine-two
and the nine-three, P-Dog in the **********in house!
Bout to get it started
Bout to get it started, live and direct from the underground
Still sayin what I wanna say, and I aint gon never change
(Verse One)
Oh what a shame, the way that were dyin up
Killin ourselves with no help from the other one
Only thought, was how the hell to get your money on
Livin in fear cause youre livin in a war zone
So much funk, jump off from a wrong look
Make a wrong move one time and your lifes took
Just the way it is when youre livin in the city
The way we dyin off is a **********in pity
Extra, extra, read all about it
Another one dead, he seen a bullet and he caught it
How many gotta fall off victim to the game
or being a ho, to the * ****** thang
Makin a rush up, to keep em comin back again
You oughta know by now it aint no love for African
People stay enslaved to the ways of America Im scarin ya
But I aint goin out like that, so think about it now
(Chorus)
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'Young brothers just dont realize'
(Paris) Yeah , think about it
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'Young brothers just dont realize'
(Paris) Think about it
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'Young brothers just dont realize'
(Paris) Uhh, think about it
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'Young brothers just dont realize'
(Verse Two)
People keep comin up, askin the news
They wanna know, why I do what I do
Its really kinda simple, so dont be amazed
It aint no secret its the way I was raised
Got much props from my pops cause he never stops
bein a father to his child, he cared a lot
Raised me up, and told me like this:
You better stand up for yours or be dissed
Be a man, and do for yourself
Better love your own befo anyone else
It aint nothin in the big city but a small thang
to see a brother straight fall victim to the game
Somethin that I roll with straight from the start
in a city where a fool and his money soon part
where brothers might die over anything at all
I cant call it but I know you better watch your step
and think about it now
(Interlude)
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'Ay ***** what you need?'
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'I got five ten, what?'
'Yeah five ten fifteen twenty . I heard they got fifty.'
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'Ay ***** what? Ay ***** where you from?'
'Get that * ***********! Get that ol *****!'
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - {'{'}*gun shots*, *police siren *}
'Move man! Move!'
'Freeze ************ freeze! Get your god damn hands in the air!'
'Oh **** . Oh ****! Oh ****. Oh ****. Oh ****.'
'The jury, having found you guilty, twenty-five years.'
{'{ '}*jail cell door slams shut*}
(Verse Three)
And now theres one last thing, I think we need to talk about
It might save your life and you die if you do without
Pokin in the puddin mean you better wrap tight
Tragic to Magic my soap in your eye
And now youbetter straighten up, and straighten up fast
Relyin on the guts and the luck of the last
Cause the fool was in with the skins shoulda never been
in with the skins no cap for the lap get waxed
Now, who growin up next?
Ready for the *** better check with the latex
So many trapped and set for the funk
who take they life for a joke so I say wait a minute
Genocide from the suicide of dippin inside
Everybody die when the legs spread ride
Gave to the sons of the slave and its man-made
AIDS and youre off to your grave, think about it now
(Chorus)
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'Young brothers just dont realize'
(Paris) Uhh, think about it
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah ..' - 'Young brothers just dont realize'
(Paris) Yeah.. think about it
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'Young brothers just dont realize'
(Paris ) One time for your mind, think about it
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'Young brothers just dont realize'
(Paris) Uh, yeah..
'Yeah, yeah , yeah, yeah..' - 'Young brothers just dont realize'
(Paris) P-Dog
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'Young brothers just dont realize'
( Paris) For the nine-two, and the nine-three
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'Young brothers just dont realize'
(Paris) Think about it
'Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah..' - 'Young brothers just dont realize'
