Dead prez - Tho It Up lyrics

South side! Where you at y'all?
North side! East side!
West side! WRBG

Rep it for the hood, every day all day
RBG - 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 fuck 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 shit
Against the government
Political education, physical education
Nigga, 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 nigga
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!
RBG! Revolutionary, but it's still G'd up
Throw it up if you know what it mean
Where my niggas at? Red Black and Green
Throw it up!
RBG! 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' ass to the side
We riders, I don't give a fuck
To me a G is a freedom fighter
No you won't catch me singing
No 'Star Spangled Banner'
Cause we RBG - Three colors on one bandana
Throw it up!
