Appreciation - 21:03
213
Childhood homes 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. dare
Now I got shouts to say
We still want easy like bed style people we want biggie
In memory of teacup 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
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
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 thong 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 cum
It's before I was snoop doggy on TV
I'm talking about when I was like a little bitty bag
Niggle me and warren dizzy and neat dizzy and fatty baby
Are talking about eighty three flip the clock up to 93
And watch me rock the clock nonstop constantly
On MTV and BET whatever you want
Hit these niggard with that motherf**king cheese G funk
Funk to shake ya trunk Niggle 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 all be sure sh*t I'm on my own
But there's one thing I'm missing and that's family
Cum without y' all I don't know where I'd be
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 sun yeah
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 boohoo
When I be f**king up you always come with love
You say you've had enough
I just wanna thank ya
Yeah yeah yeah
I just wanna give
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 sun yeah
