gang signs

when the gang sings go up

you see your life flash right before your eyes

and you know what

that's how it is on the west side

when the gang sings go up

so many of my niggas died

better watch what you throw up

niggas talking all that shit

but when the gang sings go up

you see your life flash right before your eyes

and you know what

that's how it is on the west side

when the gang sings go up

dear god

i now know what i've done

through my thoughts and my actions

and the things that i've said

sometimes by mistake and sometimes on purpose

amen

got my mind on this murder

and promise so ganged up

got a black mac 11 and it hit like a mac truck

product of bad luck

play it out on that movie screen

and to scope with some killers

almost die for moving green

my mama a fella

my daddy so long gone

my grandmama died at 18

left me all alone

all i got is my guns

bandanas and weed

leave me with 2 dead brothers

my enemies gon' bleed

i'm messed up

suicidal

rest in peace to hayes

wasn't no killers where my niggas seen some better days

that california have you stressed out

a million ways to die

gotta pull that vest out

cause when the gang sings go up

you see your life flash right before your eyes

and you know what

that's how it is on the west side

when the gang sings go up

so many of my niggas died

better watch what you throw up

niggas talking all that shit

but when the gang sings go up

you see your life flash right before your eyes

and you know what

that's how it is on the west side

when the gang sings go up

fuck niggas gon' die

speaking homicide

laid out in the street

let his mama cry

white chalk

black streets

red rack

coke killer

watch 'em leak

black on black crimes

killing our own brothers

but what the fuck can we do

when you got on the wrong colours?

take a breath

inhale

let it go

lights off

have a problem

hit the switch

lay it low

soon as you walk out the crib

we gon' blast

hit the 110 and now the one time on your ass

in 4 minutes

you thought that you got away with it

thought that shit was a dream

let us pray

cause when the gang sings go up

you see your life flash right before your eyes

and you know what

that's how it is on the west side

when the gang sings go up

so many of my niggas died

better watch what you throw up

niggas talking all that shit

but when the gang sings go up

you see your life flash right before your eyes

and you know what

that's how it is on the west side

when the gang sings go up
