Canibus - What's Going On lyrics

What's-, what's-
What's going on? What's going on?
What's going on? What's going on?
What's going on? What's going on?
What's going on? What's going on?

The club scene is a regular
Hangout spot for unclean
Women in tight jeans fronting like queens
Chickenheads who should be home takin
Care of their eggs
Instead, they always in the
Club flirting with men
Now I don't care about no hype
No-holic bitches all I'm concerned with
Is who's bringing they burners
In to burn niggas
While security practices mediocre precautions
Niggas is still stealthily sneaking
They firearms in
Often, niggas be acting like they're marksmen


But couldn't hit a stationary object
So how you gonna hit a moving
Target? Especially if you alcoholic
The party was coconuts until you spoiled it
Nigga, what's going on?

What's going on? What's going on?
What's goin on these days?
Can't do no Hip-Hop shows without the gunplay
What's going on? What's going on?
What's goin on? Why is everybody packin?
While you rappin
I'm busy tryin' to sneak the gat in
What's going on? What's going on?
What's goin on these days?
Can't do no Hip-Hop shows without the gunplay
What's going on? What's going on?
Before you blaze
Think about the lives at stake
You got a gun up in your waist, please
Don't shoot up the place

Ayo, the other night I seen
Some kid getting loud, running his mouth
Til' somebody pulled the thang-thang out
Then shots rang out
This nigga in front of me
Got his back blown out
On the floor with a piece of
His small intestines hanging out
I had to scream on the
Bouncers to carry him out they said, "Nah
Them niggas is still busting in the crowd"
Then they ducked down close to the
Ground as the bullets whizzed by
Praying to Allah cause they don't wanna die
But neither do I, fuck it, I gotta be here
As a rap artist
It's a vital part of my career
I swear, y'all niggas need to chill with that
Bringing your handguns to every God
Damn club I perform at
Everything from semi-autos to macs
Chrome or black, plastic gats and all that
Believe it or not - the government wants that
So they can use that as an
Excuse to shut down rap what's going on?

What's going on? What's going on?
What's goin on these days?
Can't do no Hip-Hop shows without the gunplay
What's going on? What's going on?
What's goin on? Why is everybody packin?
While you rappin
I'm busy tryin' to sneak the gat in
What's going on? What's going on?
What's goin on these days?
Can't do no Hip-Hop shows without the gunplay
What's going on? What's going on?
Before you blaze
Think about the lives at stake
You got a gun up in your waist, please
Don't shoot up the place

Yo, all of my Hip-Hop niggas should
Feel what I'm speaking upon
A subject that was touched by
Nas and Pharoahe Monch
Bullets - being shot from guns
Guns being carried by thugs
Who come to the clubs to shed blood
Bear in mind
That everytime a nigga reaches for chrome
He jeopardizes more lives than his own
To some this record ain't even
Relevant until you experience
How a bullet can shatter your
Dreams in a millisec'
By some thug cats who didn't take that
By busting a gat
They could render somebody handicapped
And trapped, in a wheelchair over nothing
With the gift of walking and
Running snatched from them
What the fuck is going on?

What's going on? What's going on?
What's goin on these days?
Can't do no Hip-Hop shows without the gunplay
What's going on? What's going on?
What's goin on? Why is everybody packin?
While you rappin
I'm busy tryin' to sneak the gat in
What's going on? What's going on?
What's goin on these days?
Can't do no Hip-Hop shows without the gunplay
What's going on? What's going on?
Before you blaze
Think about the lives at stake
You got a gun up in your waist, please
Don't shoot up the place
What's going on? What's going on?
What's goin on these days?
Can't do no Hip-Hop shows without the gunplay
What's going on? What's going on?
What's goin on? Why is everybody packin?
While you rappin
I'm busy tryin' to sneak the gat in
What's going on? What's going on?
What's goin on these days?
Can't do no Hip-Hop shows without the gunplay
What's going on? What's going on?
Before you blaze
Think about the lives at stake
