DOO RAGS

Pushing drop top stacey lattisore tapes The 80's had us all apes Youngest gorillas up to bat at home plate That was an uncanny era guns in my pans yeah X-clan head with dreds at the top of my fade Homicide & feds on the block where I played b ball That's when I wondered was I here for the cause or because Cause ray charles could see the ghetto Was told to stay strog and I can beat the devil Cause yo I used to play apollo balcony seats Watching niggas swing razors in the front row Then out in the streets the car show 560's chemical afros Acuras pumping superlover cee and cassanova live Chicks be asses busting out of their clothes Wearing lip gloss big doorknockers tearing their earlobe So where them years go where the old gold beers and cheers go But now them shorties here tho' so The doo rags are back, fitted hats, snorkels and furs Rikers island bust a steel pack what's the word The drinkers stay drinkin' and puffin' their herb And I'm Still enjoying life's ride One more time... The doo rags are back, fitted hats, snorkels and furs Rikers island bust a steel pack what's the word The drinkers stay drinkin' and puffin' their herb And I'm still enjoying life's ride, right Political thugs in shark suits pursuade us to pull triggers In army boots yelling “join the armed forces” We lost the vietnam war intoxicated poisons Needles in arms of veterans instead of bigger fortunes It's still a lot of nigga calling in the corporate offices War in the ghetto we crabs in a barrel they torture us They won't be serving the beast too long The murders wearing police uniforms Confederate flags I burn Beastrees breakers were dancing to the music I chose In peachtree atlanta crackheads were tootin their nose In frozen corners of chicago Loaded up lamas children with 44's and bouble revolvers We devil inarnates Headed for jail While shell gas companies in south africa be having us killed The paper money was the death of christ And all the shorties coming up just ressurect your life It's like a cycle The doo rags are back, fitted hats, snorkels and furs Rikers island bust a steel pack what's the word The drinkers stay drinkin' and puffin' their herb And I'm Still enjoying life's ride One more time... The doo rags are back, fitted hats, snorkels and furs Rikers island bust a steel pack what's the word The drinkers stay drinkin' and puffin' their herb And I'm still enjoying life's ride, right Niggas used to wear rags on their head When it was fried up That's when we were lied to, buying hair products Back before my generation when our blackness started disengrating Till awareness started penetrating The styles come from prison They used potatoes making liquor Just to prove we some creative niggas Turning nothing into something it's gods work You get nothing without struggle and hard work War is neccessary to my niggas in chains From green to sing sing im wanting ya'll to know one thing The hardest thing is to forgive and god does Even if you've murdered or robbed Yeah it's wrong but god loves Take one step towards him He takes two towards you Even when all else fails god supports you I done it got god's son on my stomach My heart and my lungs was affected from henny and getting blunted Do ya body right and it loves you back You only get one life and yo because of that I'm still blazing going out for the cause Still rocking stocking caps not for the waves Obeying no laws It's like that The doo rags are back, fitted hats, snorkels and furs Rikers island bust a steel pack what's the word The drinkers stay drinkin' and puffin' their herb And I'm Still enjoying life's ride One more time... The doo rags are back, fitted hats, snorkels and furs Rikers island bust a steel pack what's the word The drinkers stay drinkin' and puffin' their herb And I'm still enjoying life's ride, right
