Niggaz 4 Life Lyrics

The song Niggaz 4 Life is performed by N.W.A in the album named Niggaz4life in the year 2002 .

Why do I call myself a nigga you ask me?
Well, it's because motherf**kers want to blast me
And run me outta my neighborhood
They label me as a dope dealer, yo, and say that I'm no good

But I can't find jobs, so niggas wouldn't have to go out
Gave up some dope on the corner, so they could show out
When the cops came, they gave a fake name
Because the life in the streets is just a head game

So, therefore to make more
A fifteen year old black kid will go and rob a liquor store
And get shot in the process
He ate up a nine bullet and now he's put to rest

Why do I call myself a nigga, you ask me?
I guess it's the way shit has to be
Back, when I was young gettin' a job was murder
f**k, flippin' burgers 'cause I deserve a

Nine to five, I can be proud of that I can speak loud of
And to help a nigga get out of
Yo, the concrete playground
But most motherf**kers only want you to stay down

But I'm a smart motherf**ker, you see
One of the best producers in the rap music industry
Gettin' paid like a mother f**ker
A young brother, who don't give a f**k about another, yeah

Why do I call myself a nigga, you ask me?
Because police always wanna hara*s me
Every time that I'm rollin'
They swear up and down that the car was stolen

Make me get faced down in the street
They throw the shit out my car on the concrete
In front of a residence
A million white motherf**kers on my back like I shot the President

Why do I call myself a nigga, you ask me?
Because my mouth is so mother f**kin' nasty
Bitch this, bitch that, nigga this, nigga that
In the mean while my pockets are gettin' fat

Gettin' paid to say this shit here
Makin' more in a week than a doctor makes in a year
So, why not call myself a nigga?
It's better than pulling the trigger and goin' up the river

And don't I get called a nigga anyway?
Booked as a motherf**ker and locked away
So, so, cut out all that bull shit
Yo, I guess I'll be a nigga 4 life

Niggaz, crack heads, thieves
If there's Hell below, we're all gonna go

Nigga, nigga, nigga, nigga, nigga, nigga, please
I'm treated like a f**kin' disease
You say, why do I call myself a nigga so quick?
'Cause I can reach in my draws and pull out a bigger d**k

Yo, niggaz say nigga we cool
But, cracker say nigga, nigga not to f**k up
But I got to be a fast nigga to never be the last nigga
Or I have to beat your a*s, nigga

In the city you see action first
Then hear about it later in a verse I curse
Because I'm real with this to keep my shit straight bumpin'
Murder created by the streets of Compton

And I get it from the underground poet
I live it, I see it and I write it because I know it
And if you think I'm f**king your wife
Your mother f**kin' right, yo, because I'm a nigga 4 life

Nigga, this, nigga, that
The actual fact is that I'm black and bound to attract
The attention of another, I mean the other
But I'm a mother f**ker that'll have them running for cover

You see, I don't give a f**k about nothing
Except getting paid, getting bitches and [Incomprehensible] with stitches
Which is all needed to read it and find a rhyme
And then it's time to say, the nigga's here to stay

But what about the fake niggas, the house niggas
To get paid quick they gotta s*ck a fat d**k
But NWA is outta your mother f**kin' range
We ain't gonna change a mother f**kin' thing

I call myself a nigga 'cause my skin won't whiten
I call myself a nigga 'cause the shit that I'm writing
Hypes me, hypes other mother f**kers around me
And that's the reason why they wanna surround me

And ask me, why do I call myself a negroe
Ain't none of their f**kin' business 'cause I'll let the trigger go
So, get out of my presence and get out of my sight
'Cause MC Ren is a nigga 4 life, yeah

You're a nigga 'til you die
If you're a poor nigga, then you're a poor nigga
If you're a rich nigga, you're a rich nigga
But you never stop being a nigga
And if you get to be educated, you's an educated nigga

It's plain to see, you can't change me
'Cause I'ma be a nigga 4 life
It's plain to see, you can't change me
'Cause I'ma be a nigga 4 life

It's plain to see, you can't change me
'Cause I'ma be a nigga 4 life
It's plain to see, you can't change me
'Cause I'ma be a nigga 4 life

It's plain to see, you can't change me
'Cause I'ma be a nigga 4 life
It's plain to see, you can't change me
'Cause I'ma be a nigga 4 life
