[Warren G]

213

Childhood homies way back in the day

since then it's been 213 the hard way

Rapping on the street corners, young as can be

All the local groups called us Run-DMC

Me? Warren G, I was Jam Master Jay

Mixed with my big brother Dr. Dre

Now I got shouts to say

We still want Eazy like bedstyle people, we want Biggie

In memory of Tupac, Left Eye, Aaliyah

Heaven sent, say hi to my mama when you see her

Rest in peace but let's take it back to the streets

With so much drama in the LBC

It's kind of hard being a G from 213

Times was hard for a superstar

But don't nobody notice who you are

We worked hard and stayed true to the game

Kept faith, kept God and now you know our name



[Chorus - Nate Dogg]

A big shout out to all my family and friends

When times got hard, you were still be there

You give me inspiration like strength from the sun

Feel like destiny's son, yeah



[Snoop Dogg]

To be a rapper was my dream

And have a lot of money and live like a king

To have a handful of rings

And to make the kind of music that the whole world sings

Battle rap was the thing

And King Park was the spot where all the homeboys hang, bang

Just to go do our thang and form my gang

And took off white a white boy in a van to get our change

And moms knew what time it was

And loved the way her baby boy came up, Cuz

It's before I was Snoop Dogg on TV

I'm talking about when I was like a little bitty BG

Nigga me and Warren Gizzy and Nate Dizzy and Fatey Baby

are talking about eighty-threezy, flip the clock up to '93

And watch me rock the clock nonstop constantly

on MTV and BET whatever you want

Hit these niggaz with that motherfucking cheese (G-Funk)

Funk to shake ya trunk nigga from the bottom bunk

Now I'm moving on up, straight living it up

Well known in the zone and I'm still homegrown

Like Al B Sure, shit I'm on my own

But there's one thing I'm missing and that's family

Cuz without y'all I don't know where I'd be



[Chorus]



[Nate Dogg]

There's no way I can forget about you

Support for me, your love for me

Your prayers for me when I'm in these streets

And there's no way I can forget to thank ya

For showing me the true meaning of unconditional love ooohhh

When I be fucking up you always come with love

You say you've had enough

I just wanna thank ya

Yeah yeah yeah

I just wanna give



[Chorus]
