(Intro) I Love To Give You Light (Explicit)

Geah

First of all

Givin honor to god

And all the ministers on the pulpits

Ushers

Deacons

And my lovely choir

They sound so beautiful

Don't you agree

Sing it sister

Yeah

We'd like to welcome y'all inside this r&g

Rhythm &gangstathe masterpiece

Such a

Heavenly experience

Alchemist

Break it down for me nephew

Let me preach to 'em one time

Chuuch

In the beginning as a child I was chosen

Though not knowin the reason while still my eyes opened

Whatever the purpose

I surfaced above the fog

Love was given to all

Outside livin the ball

As an adolescent

One black child

I had a message

To reach teachin the masses

I wrote my first passage

It was jotted down

Created in the form of a rap

I'm young

Livin in the city of jackers and gangbangin

And d**e dealin

Cold feelin to be a product of n***az around you

Once you get on top they down you

But the temptation got me

Streets caught me watchin

I found myself grindin on the streets quite often

With a blue rag

Bangin the dub

Fo'-fifth coffin

At the spot

61st

40 blocks from the eastside

Where most of the big homies had a glock and flossed the g ride

N***az throwin up hands but it wasn't no peace signs

Never fo' a second did I think to let my light shine

Hardheaded

Thought I was grown

Messin up

Disrespectin my home

Not carin 'bout what moms what sayin

And then I found out that mom wasn't playin

Today

I love you for it

Back then

I couldn't understand

Get my life right

Step it up

N***a be a man

Never be a victim

Of what the system might hit you with

Through the stripes still gotta shine my light

I've grown

To comprehend the game

My name is big snoop boss dogg

Just a block and a phone call away

I've reached the status

Of a modern day john baptist

I'm preachin just what I practice

To each and all

I got a word from the beach to acros the globe

Man woman young and old

Don't gain the world

Lose your soul to spite

Many circumstances doggy gon' shine my light cause I love you

I love

To give you light

And the people that is locked up

Locked down

Also god

Should purchase the new

Escalade

On 24's

With the spinnin thangs

Ha ha

I need you to

Right now

Look at your neighbors

Cause a lot of y'all think y'all goin to heaven huh

And you ain't gon' go

So I need you right now to

Look at your neighbor

And say neighbor

Say neigh bor

You ain't goin

You ain't goin
