Coolio - Geto Highlites lyrics
[Coolio - Geto Highlites lyrics]
What you gonna play now
Get on up get on up get on up get on up
Every geto got a different name
But they all the same
So Coolio loco gonna put you up on game
We got homies who sell straps
Homies who sell crack
Homies who sell the bomb chronic
Sacks and fat dubs
Giving the neighborhood niggas love
Pimps, players, suckers, hoes
Forty thieves, gangstas, and thugs
Two hoodrats be scrapping over who knows what
The loudmouth one loced up in
Front of the icecream truck
And broke all of her lee nails
Where the big G's live
The little homie be gettin' out on count
This time he might get stuck attempted
One eight seven and he's a minor with priors
So the DA want him tried as an adult
The big homey just had a son no joking
I think his baby's mom is
Smoking cause she always broke
And the young girls is dressing
More and more sleazy
And everybody and their momma talking
Bout OJ and Eazy
To the hoochies in the Hondas and Sentras
Young niggas fightin' their case
With public defenders be your own good ride
Right right these are the geto hilites
To the niggas who smokin' indo
Chocolate tired of stress
Niggas who got warrants out for their arrest
Be your own good ride right right
These are the geto hilites
Slap boxin' with all the
Young hoochies watchin'
Dead cats in the street playing craps
Niggas catchin dice with they feet
Think they got the funk that
One fool got stoked out
Cos he's a mark with a gun
The nosy bitch up the street called 9-1-1 now
One time his d jacked a nigga and old bitch
Licence and registration
"All I got is a drivers permit"
Niggas can't have shit we got dogs
That rip but don't even trip
Welcome to Southern California
Liquor stores and churches on
Every other corner
Your little brother plays pop warner
Darks raided the dope spot
Eight year old kid got shot cos they
Mistook his BB gun for a Glock
And I ain't forgot about the homey Lano
He got killed by a sucker way
Back in the eighties oh
I heard the homies mighties is
Ballin' out of state
He got himself off unemployment
Checks in Section 8
Hey the homiez kickin' it real
Yeh I hear what he's sayin' loc
Sometimes it's just like that in the hood
Yeh don't nothin' change of the
Game but the name
That's right you know that's right
To the young hustlers that's trying
To stack that knot up
The house parties that's gonna
Always get shot up be your own good ride
Right right these are the geto hilites
Community programs to stop the violence
All the niggas who loced up
During the LA riots be your own good ride
Right right these are the geto hilites
The nigga with all 16 switches sitting On D's
Who got jacked he tried to pull out his gat
Bullets exit through his back
Now his momma in all black
And niggas is going to the
Barber to get a fade
They carried their dead homey to his grave
Pour out a little liquor
Homegirl down the street with the green
Eyes and big titties is getting thicker
Neighborhood clubs beat him up and crackheads
Be selling tvs and vcrs
For forty bucks so what's up
Yesterday the homey committed a bank caper
Saw the chase on the news and
Read the story in today's paper
His little girl's just now taking
Training wheels off her bike
While her daddy's got twenty-five to
Life at Fort Strike
The little homey just tripped and stripped
Because he didn't realize that
The joint was dipped that's right
OG's joining the nation and it's all good
BG's is retaliating cause they enemies
Done crossed out they hood
Crackhead momma's smoking whole
Accounting checks
Dopedealers who serve liquor pieces for sex
Be your own good ride right right
These are the geto hilites
Young niggas going to school to be a doctor
Late night sounds of gunshots and helicopters
Be your own good ride right right
These are the geto hilites
To all the motherfuckers who think
Their shit don't stank
Rollin' on Ds and then
Appear for robbing banks
Be your own good ride right right
These are the geto hilites
This is just a little something for a nigga
That's still gonna be a nigga if
He don't get no bigger be your own good ride
Right right these are the geto hilites
Get on up get on up get on up get on up
Get on up get on up get on up get on up
To fade
Get on up get on up get on up get on up
Every geto got a different name
But they all the same
So Coolio loco gonna put you up on game
We got homies who sell straps
Homies who sell crack
Homies who sell the bomb chronic
