Newscaster:In the news tonight rap star Mack 10 releases his second[00:00:00]
Solo album titled based on a true story and according to reliable[00:00:10]
Sources ha he laughs in the face of the sophomore jinx[00:00:14]
After the[00:00:17]
Release of westside connection and mack's new record gangster rap[00:00:18]
Seems to be at an all time high[00:00:21]
Either the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat[00:00:24]
You either got ends or struggle to make ends meet[00:00:27]
You can either turn square or keep the mind of a rebel[00:00:29]
Some uppity livin' good some faced with death in the ghetto[00:00:32]
I'm a product of the streets so I vow to never slip[00:00:35]
So I trust no one and keep a p[00:00:38]
Coltrane on my hip[00:00:39]
I always paid attention while my O G's was teachin'[00:00:41]
Rule number one if it's on blast the first n***a reachin'[00:00:44]
Either death or the pen' s**t I had to do better[00:00:46]
It was a must I moved on and now I'm all about cheddar[00:00:49]
A young entrepreneur I rather slang than bang[00:00:52]
Now girls be like you go mack 10 baby do yo thang[00:00:55]
So I continue to get down and I keep writin' rhymes[00:00:57]
And I parlay every dollar to flip at least a hundred times[00:01:00]
So keep your game tight and it's all fame and glory[00:01:03]
And everything I recite's based on a true story[00:01:06]
Chorus Story sung in background throughout[00:01:09]
You can feel n***a[00:01:10]
It's based on a true story[00:01:11]
You know it's real n***a[00:01:19]
Based on a true story[00:01:22]
The year 1986 is when it all started[00:01:31]
Now eleven years later we still rough and cold hearted[00:01:34]
And as the saga continues I ride the wave like a sea doo[00:01:37]
Not to knock hip hop but gangsta rap is what we do[00:01:40]
N***as on they first album[00:01:42]
Already sold a mil'[00:01:44]
So before you knock our style[00:01:45]
At least admit that it's real[00:01:46]
It's all s*x d**gs and violence[00:01:48]
So you pretend you ain't checkin'[00:01:49]
You mean to tell me people[00:01:51]
Really ain't dyin' every second[00:01:52]
Now y'all made the rules[00:01:54]
N***as can say what they choose[00:01:55]
So if you gone ban Gangsta rap[00:01:56]
Then you got to ban the news[00:01:58]
That means no weather report[00:01:59]
No waco and the bad reverand[00:02:00]
No channel 4 channel 7 and no film at eleven[00:02:02]
With no high school diplomas we became millionaires[00:02:05]
Media mad 'cause we winning and we really playin' fair[00:02:08]
So keep your game tight and it's all fame and glory[00:02:10]
And everything I recite's based on a true story[00:02:16]
I crumble green on a magazine[00:02:38]
Ready to roll a joint[00:02:40]
D**n in this billboard[00:02:41]
I'm number one with a hollow point[00:02:42]
It was a rough road ahead[00:02:44]
But for my kids I gotta pave it[00:02:45]
So I twist one shake the w**d out[00:02:47]
Close the book up and save it[00:02:48]
'Cause my son li'l Mack[00:02:50]
Might grow up and have a crew[00:02:51]
And he can show all his homies[00:02:52]
This what my daddy used to do[00:02:54]
See I was raised around gangstas[00:02:55]
And grindas since a youth[00:02:57]
So the s**t I rap abouts like 99 truth[00:02:58]
With dedicated fans from bebe kids[00:03:01]
To bambinos and n***as that's ceo's[00:03:03]
Before they reach they three o's[00:03:05]
Maneuver through the corporate world[00:03:06]
Makin' moves to take ours[00:03:08]
Rolling big German luxury and Italian sports cars[00:03:09]
So watch what you do 'cause you know we playa hated[00:03:12]
And everytime it's a homicide they call it gang related[00:03:15]
So keep your game tight and it's all fame and glory[00:03:18]
And everything I recite's based on a true story[00:03:25]
2X[00:03:44]
Too hort talking:Say Mack baby it's yo pa'tna hort dog man[00:03:44]
You know I got yo back boy[00:03:50]
You know a n***a like me I just left[00:03:52]
The ferrarri dealer man[00:03:53]
I ain't go lie I know you ridin' rims[00:03:55]
But the problem is it's a lot of mothaf**kas out there that think we[00:03:58]
Rappers man[00:04:01]
