Dead Prez - Gangsta,Gangster lyrics

Gangsta Gangsta with a "A" not a "ER"(x3) Cuz all I gees I know are part of the revolution [Verse 1: Stic. Man] Its not a word to be claiming jus cause it sound cool The game's so twisted today for lack of ground rules Is a man of his word a man of action Never begging, complaining he make it happen It's not the image they selling us on the TV screen Is a suvivor, a rider provide by any means Moving stragey outsmarting his enemies Ready to give his life, you still wanna be a g? It's not something you claim just because you from the hood Everything twisted the game is so misunderstood Used to be a protector, man of the people Now they most followers man, where are the leaders? A ghetto superstar is cool but I know something harder You dont know gangsta till you know about Bunchy Cater, Aunty Assata, Soondiati Ecoli Not to disrespect their legacy but thats the real OG's The one who has the biggest mouth to be the biggest coward No time for petty beef a gee is about getting power Thats why you can only be down after initiation So n***as know how you respond in different situations Gangsta Gangsta with a "A" not a "ER" Cuz All I Gees I know are part of the revolution [Verse 2: Styles P] He was a mean one nah he was born one He dont ever say a thing when the law comes He dont need a posse of brothers that act wild He works a Hard Job and tries to raise a black child He breaks bread with his people like Jesus did He tried to explain to the children what the evils is Knows the spots where the crack, coke and diesel is Did some time in the pen now he diesel kid He know the penile system is part slavery Knows that the judge on the stand is where the pagan be Knows freedom is priceless it takes bravery He knows I ain't an animal but they caging me He plays DP thinking about his DP's Wish he had a hundred guns headed up to DC He wants change like Obama did Probably lived where your mama lives [Verse 3: M1] Is is the bandana, the hat, the loafs or the gatt I tell you off the bat hell nah it ain't none of that It ain't the smell of the chronic the broken ebonics They be the main ones poppin that sh** but they dont want it Willing to live or to die for what he believe in He know the code of the streets you can't decieve him A gangsta's word is his bond you must respect that He keep his flag and his rep well protected Is it the bankroll? The bulletproff tank? no Look at his tattoos the women about to faint so He could of went to jail but been the biggest snitch Or He could when you trust your loyality you switch Gangsta Gangsta with a "A" not a "ER" (x3) Cuz All I Gees I know are part of the revolution [Outro : Stic. Man] It ain't just Easy,Dre,Ren,Cube and Dela It's also Nina, Sarah, Billy, Betty and Ella G is the seventh letter, G is for gettin better A G is a go-getter, A G is tougher than leather
