Is This Me? (Explicit)

Is This Me? - Coolio

Yeah 1996

Coolio with the flow flow

Rated R Rated R superstar superstar

LV LV that's right that's right

Mossberg Smith and Wesson

Forty five let me tell you

How I learned my lesson

House party in the hood

At some niggas I don't know

But I had to go

They had a house full of hos

I stepped into that party

With my ni**a high off that head

The hos is looking good so we try

To make a friend for night

Let's get it right let's get it straight

But now these punkass niggas

In the party want to play a hate

I'd bust a cap to save a rat

So what's up with that

It's 1996 so these bustas

Get no kinda of doubt

Like American Express

Here we go again

I never leave home

Without it so don't even think about it

Just let me leave

And I won't have to make you bleed

But if you make an offensive move

Then I'm gonna have to show a groove

Back up off let's keep it soft

Don't make me have to show you

Who these 16 bosses be

This really ain't me no more

These streets won't let me go

I can't escape this life

That they got me trapped inside

This really ain't me no more

These streets won't let me go

I can't escape this life

That they got me trapped inside

Way back in the days

We dudes don't forget a name

Now everybody wants the fame

But things change ain't the same

All these sucker set-tripping

Killin for no reason

That's why I never leave the house

Without my nina

I love my baby carry my baby

Whereever I go

For these suckers get in a twist they say

I beat their pimping

Stop wishin you was in my shoes

And learn to be yourself

Stop acting like somebody else

It's ninety-six and most of

The homeys thinking of six feet

The six I found out if you wear partners

Where the friends go

Every week you don't see me

I gotta put at work

I guess the sh*t don't stop

Till my gaskets drop

Stop hating my life and get your own

Be true to this game or this game

Will do you cold

Everywhere I go I got my back

I hate to do my all black

But I must stay strapped

This really ain't me no more

These streets won't let me go

I can't escape this life

That they got me trapped inside

This really ain't me no more

These streets won't let me go

I can't escape this life

That they got me trapped inside

No no oooo I can't escape this life

I been trying to live in piece

But these fools won't cease

They insist with their bullshit

So I got a full clip

Chitty-chitty bang-bang

Doing it's a new thing

One shot from a Jake

38 can make your brain ache

I'm the kinda ni**a

That don't believe in frontin'

But if you run up on me tripping

You best believe I'm dumpin'

I got bills to pay and kids to raise

And a whole generation of lost niggas to save

So I ain't got time for that yip yap

If you start some static

I'm gonna have to blow your mind back

Believe that ni**a daisy if you do it's true

F**k with Coo you get done

That's how we do it to it

Don't start no sh*t and it won't be none son

But if you do I'm going for my gun

Like Doc Holliday a ni**a ain't scary

So if you want to trip

Then I'll be your huckleberry

This really ain't me no more

This really ain't me

These streets won't let me go

I can't escape this life

That they got me trapped inside

This really ain't me no more

These streets won't let me go

I can't escape this life

That they got me trapped inside

This really ain't me no more

This really ain't me

These streets won't let me go

I can't escape this life

That they got me trapped inside

This really really really ain't me

But the streets won't let me go

I can't escape this life

That they got me trapped inside
