Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
Take [D]this for example young
brothers want rep
Cause in the life they're living,
you can't half step
It starts with the young ones
doing crime for fun
And if you ain't down,
you'll get played out son
So let's get a car, you know, a fly whip
Get a dent, pull a screwdriver,
and be off quick
With a dope ride, yeah,
and a rowdy crew
We can bag us a Benz and an Audi, too
Even a jeep or a van, goddamn,
we're getting ours, yo
Take a trip up the strip,
and be like stars so
It doesn't matter if the cops
be scoping
They can't do jack,
that's why a young brother's open
To do anything, anywhere,
anyplace
Buckwild in another court case
It's the code of the streets

[Verse 2]
They might [D]say we're
a menace to society
But at the same time I say
"Why is it me?"
Am I the target, for destruction?
What about the system, and total corruption?
I can't work at no fast-food joint
joint
I got some talent,
so don't you get my point?
I'll organize some brothers
and get some crazy loot
Selling D-R-U-G-S and and and and
and clocking dollars, troop
Cause the phat dough, yo,
that suits me fine
I gotta have it so I can leave behind
The mad poverty,
never having always needing
If a sucker steps up,
then I leave him bleeding
I gotta get mine,
I can't take no shorts
And while I'm selling,
here's a flash report
Organized crime,
they get theirs on the down low
Here's the ticket,
wanna bet on a horse show?
You gotta be a pro, do what you know
When you're dealing with

[Interlude 1]
the code of the streets
[D]

[Verse 3]
Nine times out [D]of ten I win,
with the skills I be weilding
Got the tec one dealing,
let me express my feelings
Guru has never been
one to play a big shot
It's just the styles I got that
keep my mic hot
Anf fuck turning my back to the street scene
It gives me energy,
so Imma keep fiends
Coming, just to get what I'm selling
Maybe criminal or felon dropping
gems on your melon
So keep abreast to the
GangStarr conquest
Underground ruffnecks, pounds
of respect
I've never been afraid
to let loose my speech
My brothers know I kick the

[Outro 1]
