April 29, 1992
There was a riot on the streets tell me where were you?
You were sittin' home watchin' your TV
While I was participating in some anarchy
First spot we hit was my liqour store
I finally got all that alcholhal that I can't afford
With red lights flashin' time to retire
And then we turned that liqour store into a structure fire
Next spot we hit it was my music shop
It only took one brick to make that window drop
Finally we got our own PA
Where do you think I got this guitar that you're hearin' today, Ay!

*interlude*

*Verse*

When we returned to the pad to unload everything
It dawned on me that I need new home furnishings
So once again we filled the van until it was full
Since that day my livin' room's been much more comftorble
Cause everybody in the hood's had it up to here
It's getting harder and harder and harder each and every year
Some kids went in the store with their mother
I saw her when she came out she was gettin' some pampers
They said it was for the black man they said it was for the mexican and not for the white man
But if you looked at the streets it wasn't about Rodney King
It's this ****** situation and these ****** police
It's about comin' up, and stayin' on top
And screemin' 187 on mofo cop
It's not the paper it's on the wall
NATIONAL GUARD SMOKE FROM ALL AROUND!
