of my back where these niggas at I clear the whole pack talkin' shit cuz
I'm down for my set I'm a vet smokin' on a wet cigarette (who these
niggas think they are) (wishin' on a ghetto star i represent my tar) I
start bustin' and they scatter like water bugs cuz these westside niggas is
harder thugs enslve us but nothin' can save us from sportin' Ben
Davis shootin' at your neighbors (cuz sometimes I feel like a nut don't
give a fuck when I open ya up) hot rocks fly from the back seat and busta
ass niggas run like a track meet an if you crawl in the middle bleed mo'
dinner little (what) killer king is the hospital feelin' numb from the
bullets I hum and when they hit black mothers have fits I don't give a
shit (Chorus) [Mack 10] Fool I'm a vet you can bet that I could
dance underwater and not get wet (check it) [Mr. Short Khop] Its rainin'
bullets and I'm still there (Foe life) I'm still there my house shoes get
wet from the dew on the grass up early in the morning takin' out the
trash feelin' like a loser alcohol abuser two youngsters roll up on a
beach cruiser one on the peddles the other on the handle bars

so? i said hell yea and who wanta to know (me) in slow mo fo' fo' slugs

to spread now I can't feel my legs I meet doctor who at King Drew medical
center as I enter I see you he said the bullet hit a nerve that was
vital I said I can't move my legs he said don't try to now this ain't the
end my friend but you'll probably never walk again I sit there motionless
holdin' this pain inside contemplating suicide at night I jerk and
jerk but my dick don't work it don't even hurt (damn) now who'd ever
thought a nigga rude as Ice Cube I be pissin' through a tube Fool i'm a
vet (Chorus) [Mack 10] Fool I'm a vet you can bet that I could
dance underwater and not get wet (check it) [Mr. Short Khop] Its rainin'
