Dead Prez - Tho It Up lyrics

South side! Where you at y'all? North side! East side! West side! W.R.B.G Rep it for the hood, every day all day R.B.G - Red Black and Green Let me see who really knows just what it mean What type of soldier is a RBG-soldier? Do we walk that walk more than we talk that talk? And it ain't just 'bout no colors Cause we sisters and brothers And we rep one team That's right - we family And we don't f** with no snitches These police try to trick us But we know it's war - that's why we fighting for And there can't be no peace until my folk get a piece That's why it's do or die And we gon' survive We rocking permanent creases in my khakis Because I'm on some gangsta sh** Against the government Political education, physical education n***a, train yo' self - fight to win Throw it up! Tell me what is the RBGs? Is it a gang or is it a crew? We bang for the Red Black and Green Ain't with no red white and blue, my n***a Straight from the ghetto streets With that gangsta mentality But we hip to this game though And we finna change this whole reality Cause see the Red is for the blood That our people done shed in the struggle And the Black is for the love For all my sisters and all my brothers And the Green is for the G That's inside you and inside me Unify in these streets And we gon' ride until we free Now throw it up! R.B.G! Revolutionary, but it's still G'd up Throw it up if you know what it mean Where my n***as at? Red Black and Green Throw it up! R.B.G! Revolutionary, but it's still G'd up Throw it up if you know what it mean If you rollin' with the Red Black and Green Throw it up! If you ain't gon' ride Then step yo' a** to the side We riders, I don't give a f** To me a G is a freedom fighter No you won't catch me singing no 'Star Spangled Banner' Cause we R.B.G - Three colors on one bandana Throw it up!
