Gang Signs - The Game

When the gang signs go up

You see your life flash right before your eyes

And you know what

That’s how it is on the Westside

When the gang signs go up

So many of my niggas died

Better watch what you throw up

Niggas talking all that shit

But when the gang signs go up

You see your life flash right before your eyes

And you know what

That’s how it is on the Westside

When the gang signs go up

Dear God, I now know what I’ve done

Through my thoughts and my actions

And the things that I’ve said

Sometimes by mistake and sometimes on purpose

Amen

Got my mind on this murder, and Problem so gassed up

Got a black Mac 11 and it hit like a Mac truck

Product of bad luck, played out on that movie screen

Had to scope with some killers, almost died from moving green

My mama a felon, my daddy so long gone

My grandmama died at 18, left me all alone

All I got is my guns, bandanas, some weed

Leave me with 2 dead brothers, my enemies gon' bleed

I’m masked up, suicidal, rest in peace to Hayes

Wasn’t no killers, swear my niggas seen some better days

When California have you stressed out, a million ways to die

Gotta pull that vest out, cause

When the gang signs go up

You see your life flash right before your eyes

And you know what

That’s how it is on the Westside

When the gang signs go up

So many of my niggas died

Better watch what you throw up

Niggas talking all that shit

But when the gang signs go up

You see your life flash right before your eyes

And you know what

That’s how it is on the Westside

When the gang signs go up

Fuck niggas gon' die, speaking homicide

Laid out in the street, let his mama cry

White chalk, black streets

Red rack, coke killer, watch 'em leak

Black on black crimes, killing our own brothers

But what the fuck can you do when you got on the wrong colors?

Take a breath, inhale, let it go, lights off

Have a problem, hit the switch, lay it low

Soon as you walk out the crib, we gon' blast

Hit the 110 and now the one time on your ass

In 4 minutes, you thought that you got away with it

Thought that shit was a dream, let us pray cause

When the gang signs go up

You see your life flash right before your eyes

And you know what

That’s how it is on the Westside

When the gang signs go up

So many of my niggas died

Better watch what you throw up

Niggas talking all that shit

But when the gang signs go up

You see your life flash right before your eyes

And you know what

That’s how it is on the Westside

When the gang signs go up
