Code Of The Streets Lyrics

[00:00.72] Yeah, IceBerg nigga, 2006, SMG bitch
[00:08.18] Niggaz out here got nerve to tell me keep it real
[00:11.75] Faggot ass motherfuckers have no motherfucking. reference point to real
[00:16.32] Thorough niggaz know, there's rules to this shit
[00:20.71] Original gangster, I respect the laws
[00:24.62] Of the crimes lords and the gangster wars
[00:27.49] My only religion, is the code of the streets
[00:30.17] We never use cops, we just handle our beef
[00:32.85] The penalty for snitchin is an instant death
[00:35.64] Never disrespect or betray your set
[00:38.22] Love and loyalty is the ultimate goal
[00:41.15] To the Code of the Streets, I hear my pledge in my soul
[00:43.90] When I was nineteen, I learned the game unpolitely
[00:46.48] Niggaz threw me on the back of the 'llac, told me to shut up
[00:49.46] Put me in the crack spot, made me chop rocks
[00:52.18] Put me on the streets, taught me how to lock blocks
[00:54.74] Told me never snitch, never trust man or bitch
[00:57.48] Rock revolvers, never trust gats with clips
[01:00.12] Speak in low tones, even when you think you're alone
[01:02.85] Cause phones will get you sent upstate, cause feds roll tape
[01:05.66] And all that close talking, talk about birds and cake
[01:08.32] They talk it better than you, so advice your crew
[01:11.05] And any body new, watch him with profiles
[01:14.05] Cause the D-E-A is crafty and those sending spies
[01:17.33] Original gangster, I respect the laws
[01:19.38] Of the crimes lords and the gangster wars
[01:21.94] My only religion, is the code of the streets
[01:24.89] We never use cops, we just handle our beef
[01:27.42] The penalty for snitchin is an instant death
[01:30.04] Never disrespect or betray your set
[01:32.88] Love and loyalty is the ultimate goal
[01:35.55] To the Code of the Streets, I hear my pledge in my soul
[01:38.33] Feds get gangster, hard niggaz tell
[01:41.23] Bitches get jealous and they send you to hell
[01:43.58] Your best friend is a rat, I can tell by the smell
[01:46.45] You'll get cracked for the gat, they can tell by the shell
[01:49.15] Truth is, most of these bitches, is harder than men
[01:51.97] Fact is, most of these gangsters, turn gay in the pen
[01:54.62] And if I let you rob me once, you'll probably rob me again
[01:57.31] That's why some niggaz lives must end
[01:59.61] They tell, you keep your friends closer, I keep them closer than most
[02:02.74] My enemies can do whatever, I'ma pose with a toast
[02:05.46] Live your life low and simply you should be like a ghost
[02:08.22] When you get a legal paper, it ain't too smart to boast, nigga
[02:11.62] Original gangster, I respect the laws
[02:13.73] Of the crimes lords and the gangster wars
[02:16.51] My only religion, is the code of the streets
[02:19.27] We never use cops, we just handle our beef
[02:22.02] The penalty for snitchin is an instant death
[02:24.93] Never disrespect or betray your set
[02:27.44] Love and loyalty is the ultimate goal
[02:30.18] To the Code of the Streets, I hear my pledge in my soul
[02:32.96] Yeah, niggaz out there talking about how real it is
[02:37.20] Niggaz got this shit twisted
[02:38.64] Niggaz is snitching like motherfucking bitches
[02:41.89] Niggaz got this shit all fucked up
[02:43.87] Nowadays, you niggaz analyzing the shot not the shooter
[02:46.68] Got a gold semi, choose the glock not the ruger
[02:49.38] Don't leave your conversations on your Goddamn computer
[02:52.10] Listen to me close, it might extend your life
[02:54.73] Don't trust all your homies, some of them'll bend your wife
[02:57.47] Cause there's two games, one that respects the laws
[03:00.16] And one that's straight scandalous and lives with the cross
[03:02.96] If you're fucking with the second one, you'll end for a loss
[03:05.51] They play another game, blast, kill, collect the cash
[03:08.34] No running when they're gunning and they don't wear masks
[03:11.12] The middle niggaz mobbing, just trying to eat
[03:13.67] They don't give a fuck about the code of the streets (COME ON!!)
[03:17.01] Original gangster, I respect the laws
[03:19.45] Of the crimes lords and the gangster wars
[03:21.98] My only religion, is the code of the streets
[03:24.73] We never use cops, we just handle our beef
[03:27.39] The penalty for snitchin is an instant death
[03:30.05] Never disrespect or betray your set
[03:33.06] Love and loyalty is the ultimate goal
[03:35.71] To the Code of the Streets, I hear my pledge in my soul
[04:43.78]
