City of Dope

[00:20.58] City of dope, i call it oak
[00:23.28] Can't be broke, selling coke
[00:26.15] Fat ropes, shattered hopes
[00:28.64] Fresh cars and all that dope
[00:31.39] Baseheads keep the trade alive
[00:33.54] Nobody know about a nine to five
[00:36.51] Everybody's just trying to survive
[00:38.99] You need a gun, can't use those knives
[00:41.55] You got a bullet? well just pull it
[00:44.12] And if you trip, get pistol-whipped
[00:46.22] By a psychomaniac sick in his head
[00:49.14] Wanna be a gangster, now he's dead
[00:51.58] His brother took over, ain't no sweat
[00:54.24] Bought a new drop-top white corvette
[00:56.48] Now he's buying keys, making g's
[00:59.54] And all the girls say "won't you please
[01:01.54] Take me" in the city of dope
[01:05.91]
[01:11.90] See i'm hard as hell, no ghetto tale
[01:15.09] You play a gun, but the game is real
[01:17.65] You want to stop my money, how?
[01:20.14] You keep smoking, i'm selling out
[01:22.01] It's called the city of dope, might be your town
[01:24.83] Get a piece of the rock, turn your life around
[01:27.36] So cool, don't even trip
[01:30.35] You got the sack, get on the tip
[01:33.05] A resident in the city of dope
[01:35.60] And every day i'm selling coke
[01:38.26] I'm never broke, i don't smoke
[01:40.80] I sold a rock and made you have a stroke
[01:42.89] Pay cold cash you know, i won't need bruno
[01:45.66] I'll hit you with my gat and then i won't come back
[01:48.08] Like peanut butter top with the candy paint
[01:50.67] All the high school tenders drop down and faint
[01:53.12] In the city of dope
[01:56.14]
[02:03.82] Life in a coke town, heard it before
[02:06.07] Think it's all been said, but it's so much more
[02:08.56] It's like midnight, slanging rock
[02:11.74] Task force just hit the block
[02:14.16] Time to make a move, the spot got hot
[02:16.81] You chase a cop, homeboy why not?
[02:19.17] She lit the match and light the crack
[02:21.58] Ain't giving no bitches no kind of slack
[02:24.06] Or if you're playing the game, you're thinking the same
[02:27.25] Goddamn that rock cocaine
[02:29.13] I've seen a lot of my friends go off that pipe
[02:32.34] And every night smoke coke that's white
[02:34.11] So when you get up, man, there you go
[02:37.38] You and that pipe just dogging the hoes
[02:39.64] In the city of dope, and the story goes
[02:42.19] Want to be like free, breaking millions of loaves
[02:44.73] In the city of dope, where the color is gold
[02:47.38] On your neck, and your fingers, and your brand new rolls
[02:50.31] Enough said, but my rap won't end
[02:52.36] It's on a one way trip to san quentin
[02:55.05] Like you my friend, ain't nothing new
[02:57.56] You want to grind that boat til it's way past two
[03:00.32] You say it's not easy, that you're so hard
[03:02.65] Sporting gold tone z's, not credit cards
[03:05.23] Got clout turn 'em out, you got bitches
[03:08.02] You say you're not fake, but i'm telling you this is
[03:10.64] The city of dope, might be your world
[03:13.00] Get a beeper homeboy and just sell that girl
[03:15.90] I'm from the town called "the city of dope"
[03:18.41] It couldn't be saved by john the pope
[03:20.52] So go on, live your life of crime
[03:23.23] The beat'll keep beating while i say my rhyme
[03:25.99] In the city of dope
[03:29.01]
[03:36.38] Smoking weed, rolling 'em fat
[03:39.07] You wonder where the boy learned to act like that
[03:41.45] Hey was raised in the ghetto and felt the need
[03:44.10] To roll a fat joint and smoke that weed
[03:46.53] But the tale goes on and years went by
[03:49.34] Another drug came and the boy got high
[03:51.76] Ever since that day, he just wasn't the same
[03:54.49] Where i come from, we call it "rock cocaine"
[03:57.08] Where you come from, you might call it "crack"
[03:59.40] But wherever he went, you see he never came back
[04:01.99] I tried to tell the motherfucker, but he don't know
[04:05.16] I say to coke, "pimp that ho"
[04:07.04] I don't live in a mansion but i drive a benz
[04:10.19] Cut to the turf and collect my ends
[04:12.29] Say "look here freak, kick me down
[04:15.13] I don't have time to talk right now"
[04:17.40] Got to go to, my next hoe
[04:20.27] And get kicked down, a little more
[04:22.89] Left right left, down the street
[04:25.58] Getting paid freak by freak
[04:28.19] There you see me, there you don't
[04:30.54] You wonder will i, or won't
[04:33.30] Is it yes, is it no?
[04:35.61] But does it really matter you freaky hoe?
[04:38.19] In the city of dope
[04:39.11]
