N Da Closet Lyrics by Coolio

N Da Closet Lyrics

    5:30 in the morning and i haven't been to sleep
    A pair of raggedly ass prowings on my feet
    Ten dollars in my pocket and now i'm on the creep
    To the double-up spot cos the shit is comin cheap
    It's 1984 and the rocks is all fat
    Southern california, la is where it's at
    I'm smokin like a motherfuckin choo-choo train
    Big cocaine inside my brain, aah
    But nobody knows that i'm on the hype
    Use to be in cream, well now i hit the pipe
    Face sucked in, yellow tooth grin
    No bitches, no friends, no ends to spend
    I'm stuck like a rat in a sticky ass trap
    And i sold everything but my motherfuckin gat
    I got a habit like a rabbit and i wanna stop it
    But i can't cos i'm locked 'n da closet
    Bridge:

    Oh make me wanna holler, right into my life
    Oh make me wanna holler, right into my life
    Oh make me wanna holler, right into my life
    Listen homey

    No rehabilitation, no wantin to talk to...
    Doin crimes on every fuckin place i can walk to
    I still get props in the hood when i stroll by
    Cos niggas don't know that i'm smokin like popeye
    Mama's in the kitchen cookin rice
    Daddy's in the pen doin life
    Sister gotta husband, she's a wife
    And i'm in the backyard hittin the pipe
    It's been three or four months since i started usin
    It's a uphill battle and now i know i'm losin
    I go to the spots where my face ain't familiar
    And i cook here jack cos i don't know these niggas
    I'm livin like a peasant and it ain't pleasant
    I think i need to change my direction
    I got the five dollar piece now i'm all in the carpet
    In the dark cos i'm locked 'n da closet

    Chorus:

    Someone's knockin at the door, somebody's ringin a bell
    Somebody's locked n da closet, somebody's goin to hell
    Do me a favour, open the door and let em have it
    Ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah

    One year done passed and now i'm lookin dusty
    Disgusted because my own mama don't trust me
    My sister's on the trip cos she knows i'm on the hit
    And i can't take this shit
    There's a rumour goin round that i'm puffin heavily
    And my neighbours is lookin at me crazy, g
    I guess they figured out that i broke in they house
    And stole all they shit while they was out
    My sister told my aunt and my aunt told pam
    And pam let it slip to that bitch roxanne
    Roxanne told bill and bill told duke
    Now the whole hood knows that i play the flute
    But before i lost my respect
    I didda lick your dumb ass on a jet, shit!
    Now i'm back to life, yeah i'm back to reality
    Ain't no side effects or technicalities
    There's one thing about it when your life is fucked
    At the bottom the only way to go is up, aah
    No more cocaine bitches
    I kick the door off the motherfuckin hinges
    I'm out the closet *screaming*

    Chorus:

    Someone's knockin at the door, somebody's ringin a bell
    Somebody's locked n da closet, somebody's goin to hell
    Do me a favour, open the door and let em have it
    Let em have it

    Someone's knockin at the door, somebody's ringin a bell
    Somebody's locked n da closet, somebody's goin to hell
    Do me a favour, open the door and let em have it
    Ooh yeah yeah yeah yeah
