Dr. Dre, Anderson .Paak - Animals lyrics

These old sneakers, faded blue
Jeans, no tricks, no gimmicks
I be stompin' down down down down down demons
Rollin' up trees in the belly of the beast
Where the people disagree
The upper class eat, middle don't exist
The bottom of the beat, glad I got my sticks
Are you jumpin' on a fad, layin' in a ditch?
I be stompin' down demons
Stompin' down quick, come on

And please don't come around these parts
And tell me that we all a bunch of animals
The only time they wanna turn the cameras on
Is when we're fuckin' shit up, come on

Bullets still ringin', blood on the cement
Black folks grievin', headlines readin'
Tryna pay it no mind
You just livin' your life
Everyone is a witness, everyone got opinions


Got a son of my own
Look him right in his eyes
I ain't livin' in fear
But I'm holdin' him tight
Got a son of my own
Look him right in his eyes
I ain't livin' in fear
But I'm holdin' him tight

Damn, why the fuck are they after
Me? Maybe 'cause I'm a bastard?
Or maybe 'cause of the way
My hair grow naturally?
Still tryna figure out why the
Fuck I'm full of rage
I think I noticed this bullshit
Right around the fifth grade
Paraphernalia in my locker right
Next to the switchblade
Nothin' but pussy on my mind and
Some plans of gettin' paid
But I'm a product of the system
Raised on government aid
And I knew just how to react when
It was time for that raid
Just a young black man
From Compton, wonderin'
'who could save us?'
And could barely read the sentences
The justice system gave us
So many rental cars with bricks
I think they probably funded Avis
Some of us was imbalanced but
Some us used our talents, shit
Not all of us criminals but
Cops be yellin', "Stay back, nigga!"
We need a little bit of payback (Payback)
Don't treat me like an animal 'cause
All this shit is flammable
Don't fuck around 'cause when it's done
It's done fuck you!

And the old folks tell me it's been
Goin' on since back in the day
But that don't make it okay
And them white folks tell me all
The lootin' and the shootin's insane
But you don't know our pain

And please don't come around these parts
And tell me that we all a bunch of animals
The only time they wanna turn the cameras on
Is when we fuckin' shit up, come on
And please don't come around these parts
And tell me that we're all a bunch of animals
The only time they wanna turn the cameras on
Is when we're fuckin' shit up, come on

These old sneakers, faded blue
Jeans, no tricks, no gimmicks
I be stomping down down down down down demons
Rollin' up trees in the belly of the beast
Where the people disagree
The upper class eat, middle don't exist
The bottom of the beat, glad I got my sticks
Are you jumpin' on a fad, laying in a ditch?
I be stompin' down demons
Stompin' down quick, come on

And the old folks tell me it's been
Goin' on since back in the day
But that don't make it okay
And them white folks tell me all
The lootin' and the shootin's insane
But you don't know our pain

And please don't come around these parts
And tell me that we all a bunch of animals
The only time they wanna turn the cameras on
Is when we're fuckin' shit up, come on
And please don't come around these parts
And tell me that we're all a bunch of animals
The only time they wanna turn the cameras on
Is when we're fuckin' shit up, come on

Yeah! This is DJ motherfuckin' Premier!
And I'm Dr dre (Dr dre)
What, Premo! yeah, we fuckin' shit up!
No! We don't play no
Games here! Motherfucker, please!
