[Daz whispering]
|
This nigga to give it all to me with the cut
|
[door knocking]
|
|
[Kurupt]
|
Get the door
|
|
[Daz Dillinger]
|
Yo wassup? What you need?
|
Hmm? Yeah
|
I'm out
|
|
Hop in the '6-3 Chevy, countin boutin the heat
|
Scapin thru the streets with my niggas bumpin hellafied beats
|
See us, niggas play for keeps, kill the strong and the weak
|
From the Eastside of Long Beach, that's 2-1 Street
|
See we, live and die by the gun and the knife
|
And I, high as a kite, corrallin thru the night
|
Haha, stackin hundreds, we kept the drugs and hoes comin (Come on)
|
Young gunnin, tortured, no need to be punished (Yeah)
|
All we have of the system is big cabbage
|
Lifestyles is lavish, livin my life from Dallas
|
It was a challenge, livin my life like a savage
|
To have or to not to have it or nobody can have it
|
Un-touch-able, inde-struct-able
|
Get in my way and we're dustin you
|
As a kid this the type of shit that we dreamed of
|
Money, cars, bitches and drugs
|
I prevail, the crack sales then got in jail
|
Couldn't post bail now my home is livin in a cell
|
Thirty years with no parole as I grow old
|
You won't see me on the streets til I'm 60 years old
|
|
[Chorus: Daz singing]
|
|
Why oh why, why oh why, why oh why
|
[Snoop] It's only for the money
|
do we live in dangerous lives?
|
[Snoop] It's only for the money
|
It's just the gangsta life we live
|
Why oh why, why oh why, why oh why
|
[Snoop] It's only for the money
|
do we live in dangerous lives?
|
[Snoop] It's only for the money
|
It's just the gangsta life we live
|
|
[Warren G]
|
It's the A, Team, operation regime
|
Money and dreams got me hooked with schemes
|
From the Time Square walk to America's best
|
Long Beach is the spot, got a lot of respect
|
Cos I'm a vet, regulate and never hesitate
|
I stay hungry so fill my plate
|
I'm just a young black nigga tryin to flip an end
|
Five year probation, nigga fuck the pen
|
Whattup, Uncle Kev doin eight upstate
|
I heard you're benchin ten plates, knockin out inmates
|
It's just a way of life, nigga shootin the dice
|
Now you hit all craps, now you payin the price
|
Livin the thuggish life
|
|
[Chorus:]
|
|
Why oh why, why oh why, why oh why
|
[Snoop] It's only for the money
|
do we live in dangerous lives?
|
[Snoop] It's only for the money
|
It's just the gangsta life we live
|
Why oh why, why oh why, why oh why
|
[Snoop] It's only for the money
|
do we live in dangerous lives?
|
[Snoop] It's only for the money
|
It's just the gangsta life we live, we live, we live
|
|
[Kurupt]
|
G, Dove, we, mob
|
Killin all y'all, that is our job
|
And if you thought it was The Gang then you hit it on the knob
|
Slide and flip like cocoa bricks, takin your 6
|
and leavin it on the side of the freeway on bricks
|
Schitzomanic, automatic, schizophrenic, six
|
It's just a psychosomatic, original
|
Dogg Pound criminal, ya ever heard of me?
|
Kurupt, Young Gotti, motherfucker D-P
|
Why is life fucked up? Toe-up
|
scrapin from the flo' up to the ceilin, the fo's bust
|
for my children to grow
|
We live to let go, nigga
|
|
[Chorus/Outro:]
|
|
Why oh why, why oh why, why oh why
|
[Snoop] It's only for the money
|
do we live in dangerous lives?
|
[Snoop] It's only for the money
|
It's just the gangsta life we live
|
Why oh why, why oh why, why oh why
|
[Snoop] It's only for the money
|
do we live in dangerous lives?
|
[Snoop] It's only for the money
|
It's just the gangsta life we live
|
|
Why oh why, why oh why, why oh why
|

|
It's just the gangsta life we live, we live, we live
