WESTSIDE
(T. Quaites/M. Mosley/F. Ojetunde/J. Sample/R. Ford/
R. Simmons/J. Moore/K. Walker/L. Smith)
I was just a young boy, livin' in the hub city
Eastside compton G
Back in the days when Ice cube and Eazy had every Nigga
Talking 'bout boy you can't fuck with me
Remember Ice T had power, hearing gunshots lickin' by the hour,
When Too Shorut bumped in every Supersport
And taught us all how to ride for the West Coast
CHORUS:
To my peoples if you with me - where you at
Throw your dubs in the air - and wave 'em like you just don't care
From L.A. to the Bay - what you say - all day...everyday...any damn day
Take a look around, we got the whole world locked down
Going on and on, it don't stop...won't stop...can't stop
Either ride or die - that's why I put it down for the Westside
Didn't seem that long ago, we were stealing 40's out the liquor store
Mama started tripping so it's time to go
Up to the park with the locsta's
Everybody broke smokin' roaches
DJ Quick was the shit had every nigga claiming he was from the CPT
Ya'll remember one-time tried to clown
We had to burn this bitch on down
BRIDGE:
One time for my niggas in incarceration
I blaze a dime with you for having lots of patience
Two times fro my sista's at the county building,
I got some Westsde love for al you ghetto children
Three times for my niggas that done passed away
I tip some gin for you and pray for betta days
One day everything's gonna be fine
But until that day my only reply is...
WESTSIDE TILL I DIE
(Repeat Chorus)
From Crenshaw to Foothill Blvd.
All I see are Lo Lo's and mob cars - Dayton's and five stars
All the true hobs is hittin' switches
With all the finest riches of course the bombest bitches
Don't get it twisted
Ask me what's a real G
Show me a nigga scrapping back against the wall until his knuckles bleed
Screaming death to all our enemies and those who don't believe
WEST COAST LIVIN' BE THE SHIT TO ME!!!
(Repeat Bridge)
(Repeat Chorus)

PARADISE
(T. Quaites/J. Joshua/J. Blake)
HOOK:
I kinda wanna drive Lexuses
Sit back and live life high with the best of shit
With a wrist full of ice in my president
And a pocket full of Debbies that you can't imagine
Guaranteed to make the best of it
To have a yacht on a lake with water beds in it
And a whole lot of women that are singin' to my shit
With their hands up in the audience
Screamin' they want it - they want it
When I was a lot younger, I used to sit up at the park
And drink on St. Ides
Drunk as fuck I used to wonder why
Some niggas roll sixty-fours on D's
And some niggas let their khakis hang on their knees
Will I end up just like one of these?
Or smoke trees overseas and rock wimbley
Bring back a black bentley full of Henessey
And earl grey tea sippin' it with naomi -
And they on me!
I wonder how it happened so fast
To go from 33b to 1st class laughin'
And all you hatas' are hurt bad...Imagine
HOOK:
I kinda wanna drive Lexuses
Sit back and live life high with the best of shit
With a wrist full of ice in my president
And a pocket full of Debbies that you can't imagine
Guaranteed to make the best of it
To have a yacht on a lake with water beds in it
And a whole lot of women that are singin' to my shit
With their hands up in the audience
Screamin' they want it - they want it
Before I go to sleep at night
I say a prayer to the Lord above and I'm hopin'
That he shows me luv
'Cause my shit be hot enough to have thw world dancin'
Smokin' weed on the beach in the sand and
All my ladies look well in Chanel and Donna
If I trip they got my bail so farewell your honor
Ain't got no time for drama
Too busy chillin' with the mamas in the Bahamas
And everybody got they own bag of ganja
And you can go and roll a bleezie if you wanna
Ain't got to worry 'bout nobody all up on ya!
(Repeat Hook)
Give me a house in Fayetteville and a blue five hundred
Next door to Evander in the tub with Michelle and Samantha
And a black pet panther, you ring the doorbell
I don't answer and you can't stand it
And you askin' TQ why you act that way
'Cause it's too many hata's with somethin' to say
I'm too busy blowin' up with my homeboy J!
(Repeat Hook)

THEY NEVER SAW ME COMING
featuring Jay
(T. Quaites/A. Dent)
New nigga in town, everybody listen
I got a message for you, don't want you miss it
Gangstas make the world go round, as it was written
That's why at every show somebody trippin'
Now I like to smoke weed and drink straight "yack"
And fuck with dime pieces because I got it like that
Make all the strippers love me because my tips stay fat
And my Lac is all that, haven't you heard about it.
CHORUS:
Got every ghetto in the country wanting it
Even if they playa hate, they bumpin' it,
I heard you lookin' 4 that real live gangsta shit,
But they never saw me coming
Haven't you heard about it
All my niggas down South - I know what u like
All my peoples on the West - it's on 2 nite
Everybody in the East, believe me
Anybody talkin' beef can eat these
They never saw me coming
We made the front page story in Every city,
Couldn't believe all the niggas
That was down with me,
Had all these other busters lookin' silly
We don't ride no pony, just roll on Goldies - nigga please
Come off that shit, this is a new era,
Straighten up your sideburns
Stop wearin' mascara, I hope it for the sake of sellin' records
Either way, you need to check yourself for not being a real nigga
My mama told me I was unexplainable
Said I was gifted, but I chose to act a fool
But in the end, it was the fool
That got me thru even back in school
I used to dream 'bout it, to have the whole world screamin'
Throw up they dub
Just wanna give 'em what they needin' and show some love
Truth is I'm a thug, but I still can blow what
Now tell me the muthafuckin' problem
(Repeat Chorus)

GOTTA MAKE THAT MONEY
featuring E-40
(T. Quaites/M. Mosley/S. Bostic)
Seems like every night - right before I go to sleep
I say a little prayer to the Lord - that He keep me(that He keep me)
I used to be the kind of nigga that didn't give a fuck about nobody
The slightest little thing would make me mad
Especially if it involved my money
And I can't tell you 'bout the next man,
But I love pullin' up in big sedans
Wit' all my niggas in a caravan -
Holla if you hear me
Now I'd love to break ya, bring you down
And take ya back again
But that would take too much time
And I gotta hit the streets again
HOOK:
And even if the sun don't shine
I'll still be hustlin'
Gotta get that money - make that money - keep it comin'
If it takes all nite
I can't be strugglin'
Somebody come help me can you tell me
Why is slangin' always on my mind
Must be buggin' I guess they figured I would quit
And they could get me if they tapped my line
Don't mean nothin' - I'd still be hustlin'
Now I hate to be the one to tell ya - But I don't mind
Nigga's can hate it they want to
And I'm still gonna get mine (still gonna get mine)
Yes, I'll still be ridin' in a SC on dubs and I a..
All your women would know who I was -
And that you wouldn't like (and that you wouldn't like)
If everybody kept their mind on getting they scrilla
Won't be no time to fuck wit' mine
So won't be no killin'
I'll just sit back and recline and smoke this Philly
And keep my fingers laced wit' diamonds like Big Willie
But for now catch me on Compton Avenue
Wit' a handful of hundreds and a strap or two
Puttin' it down for my nigga's like they told me to
U need some candy so won't you come thru!
(Hook)

REMEMBERMELINDA
(T. Quaites/M. Mosley/F. Ojetunde)
I'm just sittin' smokin' weed and looking at some old pictures
From mom's house of when I was a young boy
And the first one that I see is of me and Melinda
On the roof throwin' gang signs
The kind of homie that you don't find
But she always kept things on her mind
She never was my baby, we had a crush
When we were younger
We used to hump and that was it
No bullsit, she was eleven I was ten
But she meant more to me than any woman since
CHORUS:
RememberMelinda
I used to stay across the street from her
She could have been a supermodel
Don't remember doing shit without her
I often think about her
RememberMelinda
Never really found her way home
I loved her like my sister
Dear Lord I really miss her, one wish
Long as I live, I'll always RememberMelinda
She always had a lot of drama
Watchin' daddy drunk beating on mama
She used to stuff grams in her bra for my nigga Rob
Twistin' niggas was her job, married to the mob
I used to take her on runs with me
She'd sit in the passenger seat and count the funds for me
It's my fault, I introduced her to the game
To find out she couldn't hang - and it's a shame
That I remember when she started actin' crazy
Was first day she brought my yay to me
Let's get some yack because you made me now
But wait up, what's the deal why ain't you happy
Something's wrong and that's really an open package
That's when I finally realize
Melinda getting high off my supply!
(Repeat Chorus)
And no I'll never forget the night
Her nose started bleeding, her eyes turned white
And I can't get it out of my mind
I'm telling you I still remember, yes I remember
12:30 on the dot here come the doc
The news he's bringing me I'm shocked
Another victim; And I done made my self a killing
All for the love of drug dealing
(Repeat Chorus 4x)

ONE MORE LICK
(T. Quaites/M. Mosley/B. Evans/T. Anderson)
featuring Tray Dee
(Rap by Tray Dee)
HOOK:
I promise the Lord if you let me do one more lick
I'll stop slangin' and get out of this shit
No more killin' and no more yay
But let me keep Benz and my crib in GA
I pray to you Lord that you do the same for all my friends
I don't ever wanna pray this prayer again
Gotta see a million and I'm thru with this
And all I'm gonna need is just one more lick
In the morning when I wake up
Head to the bathroom, gotta shade my face up
Pick my Nigga Jay up, from Corina's house where he always laid up
Listen up we gotta busy day, my nigga Noid say 23 birds comin' our way
And they landin' at the docks at nine o'clock
Let's go see Dmack at the neighborhood glock shop
HOOK:
I promise the Lord if you let me do one more lick
I'll stop slangin' and get out of this shit
No more killin' and no more yay
But let me keep Benz and my crib in GA
I pray to you Lord that you do the same for all my friends
I don't ever wanna pray this prayer again
Gotta see a million and I'm thru with this
And all I'm gonna need is just one more lick
In the evening, we in the Benzo
Listening to Tupac blowin' up some indo
Gettin' real blowed and my cellular is gettin' crossed up
I call Kellie, tell her not to wait up
Nine o'clock on the dot - we at the dock
I got my eyes on the nigga with the dred locks she
The first one I'm gonna pop when the loot come out
I'm tappin' Bennie so he know which one I'm talkin' 'bout
Now shit's about to change hands - niggas put your hand up!
Before you get stuck
And it's turnin' out to be a beautiful day, we got the money and the yay
Dippin' on the freeway
Next day, the Narc's raid about six in the morning -
You know break of fuckin' dawn
Now Kellie in the courtroom cryin' when I stand up
I guess it's one prayer that the Lord didn't answer
(Repeat Hook 3x)

DARLIN' MARY
(T. Quaites/M. Mosley/S. Bostic)
So you're all in my mind - let me tell you what I see
What seems so hard to find is just another part of me
When all of my friends come around
We love to just pass her, pass her
Don't have to feelin' down - on the one day after
And we've always been together since I can remember
So, we'll stay the same
You been salted up so bad but I don't care what nobody say
CHORUS:
Darlin' Mary, U know I can't leave you alone
She makes me happy, and they say lovin' you is wrong
Can't be mad at me - she puts me in a zone
And I wish I had got me just a little bit to take home
I love my Darlin' Mary
So you think it ain't right - well let me explain
I love my Darlin' Mary
She make my heart sang
Whenever I'm feeling lonely, I take a ride up the street
Give kayo his 20 dollars, he gives Mary back to me
And she always stays a long time, 'cause she likes Phillies
Can't fuck with no zags
And when she runs out - no need to go crazy
Just get another bag
(Repeat Chorus)
Now, I've been taught not to love nobody
But ain't nobody like Mary
And I don't mean to be selfish but I only like the best shit
So if you wanna get really lit put 10 on it
And we can go and get Mary
(Repeat Chorus 3x)

WHEN I GET OUT
(T. Quaites/M. Mosley/F. Ojetunde)
duet with Ericka Yancey
TQ:
Been in here about a year
Never thought the game would take me under
About to get my first tear, when I'm sittin' in my cell I wonder
What are doing outside
Are you giving all my ass up
You're a dime so niggas won't pass up
Ericka:
Wait a minute nigga you better back up
I told you a long time ago I'd always have your back
I'm still coming off with half of them checks,
So why are you trippin'?
Ain't got to worry 'bout nobody getting up in your stuff
soon as the jury said guilty I closed it up
Bought you a new Bible with a blunt in it already rolled up
Between Numbers and Deuteronomy - is where you'll find me
TQ:
Don't mind me, I'm feenin' baby
I want some ass real bad
Locked up wit' all these hard legs, scrappin' daily
I miss my baby, I'm going crazy, I gotta get out of this place
CHORUS:
TQ: How can you love me?
Ericka: Somebody gotta do it
TQ: It's gotta be hard!
Ericka: Ain't really nothing to it
TQ: But you make me happy
Ericka: You know you really shouldn't have no doubt - can't wait till you get out
I already told you
TQ: I guess I didn't believe it
Ericka: You spend all your time
TQ: Fucked up getting weeded
Ericka: But you make me happy
TQ: So I'm sittin' here countin' the days down - can't wait till I get out
Ericka: When you get out...
BRIDGE:
Things can get back to the way they used to be
You and me in a chromed out E - bumpin' Bone Thugs
Pedal to the floor, dippin' kinda high and trippin',
I really wanna hit it, your shit is finger lickin'
Ericka:
Wait a minute I really miss you, so don't get me started
Sweatin' bumpin' and grindin' right through these bars and
Got a little something to help you make it - just picture me naked
Can't feel your body and I hate it...I'm going crazy
Gotta get my mind off this, 'bout to go up to the mall and buy an outfit
TQ:
If you spend all my loochie and I'm gonna be passed - that's no bullshit
Ericka:
Now who in the hell do you think you're talking to
You know I'm the only one in the world who will put up with you
TQ:
Got 72 more days in here, it seems like 20 years
Can't smoke, can't drink no beer
Can't get no ass in here
So when I finally get home
It's gonna be on, 'cause I'm gonna be
Lickin' and kissing and sticking all week long
(Repeat Chorus)

YOUR SISTER
(T. Quaites/M. Mosley/T. Howard/T. Shaw)
featuring Too Short
I like to think back to when we spent the weekend
In Cabo baby, your sister's boyfriend started trippin'
And left her lonely
After you went to sleep - I spent the night out on the beach
Laid up on her body - how could I keep from hittin'?
And every time I came to see your house
She always kissed me in the mouth
Always stickin' her tongue out when you wasn't lookin'
I wanna fuck your sister
CHORUS:
Now we been messin' round a long long time
But now I wanna fuck your sister
And I know it sounds foul but that's alright
'Cause why should I have to bullshit ya' (play wit' cha)
I can't help it if she's the one that's on my mind
Everytime I'm out wit' cha
I know we messed around a long long time
But now I wanna fuck your sister
She comes to greet me when I ring your door bell
Lookin' like crazy
She stands behind you in the kitchen - staring at me
I like to see her when she's getting out the shower
All the things she used to tell me when you wasn't listening
Now the bridge is gonna get cha
Ain't no need for us to stop messin' around
I just wanna hit it for an hour when she get out of the shower
On the sink guaranteed not to make a sound
And you know you shouldn't have to be getting mad at me
I can't help if I want that ass badly
So in the middle of the day when nobody else is around
I'll be fucking your sister
(Rap by Too Short)
(Repeat Chorus 2x)

BYE BYE BABY
(T. Quaites/M. Mosley/T. Howard)
At night I can't seem to get no sleep
Addicted to indo and Hennessy
I'm stressed homes - got my vest on
Friday night and I'm chillin' with my baby
In a black 600 Lorenzo's on it
And I'm...al up on them thighs, smokin' on doja
So I guess I didn't see them niggas behind me
We at the stop light - get out your car nigga
Before I exit - they start pullin' triggas
So now I'm duckin' and divin' try to survivin'
All I can hear is gun shots and crying
Then in an instant - the crying stopped
Look at my Benz all windows bucked out
I see my girlfriend layin' on the asphalt
Bleedin' lookin' dead at me
All I can say is...
HOOK:
Bye Bye Baby
I can't believe it - these niggas done shot my baby
The only thing that make me go crazy
Somebody gonna feel my 380
My My Baby won't live to see it
It's gonna be murder - I guarantee it
You already had it comin' boy for steppin' to me
But y'all shouldn't have fucked with my baby
Now I met her at the Beverly and she was the bombest
She had me goin' nigga - I'm gonna be honest
And she was stacked with big bags behind her
Matter of fact - she kinda looked like Tyra
All the niggas used to stop when they see her
Dressed in black - laid back demeanor
Nigga she gone now - and I'm all upset
I'm like a grown child - I want my baby back
But now it's on pal - all things behind us
I'm gonna take you where no one can find ya
Mind ya, I'm about to go crazy
Gimme my Baby - Gimme my Baby
(Repeat Hook)
Now I try not to think about all the things that we did together
We make the bedroom walls shake from in the living room
I was so infatuated with everything you do
Somebody took you away from me with a shell or two
And I'm gonna ride, 'cause that's what the hell I do
Gonna be some madness tellin' you
This shell's 4 u
What they wanna do
(Repeat Hook)

featuring Daz Dillinger & Kurupt
(Rap by Daz)
I'm up at mom's house taped up
3 months rehabilitating finally got my weight back up
She told me "I'm gonna pray to God that you'll be alright"
That's my only mama nigga, she knows what's on my mind
You shot my girlfriend when she was 3 months
There went my children found out it was more than one
You've got me limping and I can't move as fast
But I swear on baby grave that I'm gonna get that ass
What about my little sister she used to get good grades
But now she's paranoid goin' to school with a 38
Now how much of this do you think
I'm gonna take
Nigga I'm comin' back
HOOK:
All I'm sayin' is you betta not go to sleep
I'm coming to get you Nigga you make too big of mess

All I'm saying is you betta not go to sleep
Because I'm waiting to hit ya
Because I'm coming back...
Friday nite again and I get a new Benz
Bus' a left on 120th - I see you slippin'
This niggas in my hood tell me how can this be
Gotta thank the Lord for sending this blessin' down to me
I get my glock ready, Beenie can't shoot this time
As much as I been feelin' and dreamin' this mutha fuckers mine
I let my heat fly, I see him fallin' down
And all I'm hearing is "K-Plaw, K-Plaw, Paw Paw"
After the smoke clears I hear a baby screamin
I'm tryin' to make it out but all I see is demons
Father forgive me if I hurt this child let die tonight
Walk up to the Beener see the kids alright
I hand him to his cryin' mama tell her turn away
Somebody punch up Daddy's number and it's Judgement Day
For anybody askin' questions you didn't even see my face
Or else I'm comin' back
(Repeat Hook)
(Rap by Kurupt)

BETTER DAYS
(T. Quaites/B. Evans/T. Anderson)
In the morning when I wake up I think about
All the crazy things that we've been through
My mama she told me there will be days like these
And I guarantee she was tellin' the truth
When I close my eyes I see Eazy
No more thuggin' - just love everyday
In the heavens above wit it's DJ
Listening to music that I just made hey
CHORUS:
Just wanna sing a little something for the people that done passed away
Now tell me can you feel it - when you're livin' in better days
And I pray to God I hope He's listening if we try that we could one day be
For one time in your mind everything is alright
But until it happens I'll be on my knees praying for a better way
Now my background say...
Every once in awhile, I remember that I miss my Grand daddy
All the things we sat and talked about - I wish you can see me now
From the side of my bed with my head down
To outside wit' my homes tippin' gin now
Seems like I gotta whole lotta friends now
So let me tell you what I'm talkin' about
And now that I've got my mind made up
Ain't got no time to wait up
If you ever should think I ain't true to that
In "My peoples if you wit me where you at"
We brought y'all back!
(Repeat Chorus 2x)
