The Day the Niggaz Took Over Lyrics

    (I'ma say this and I'ma end mine
    If you ain't down, for the Africans here
    in the United States, period point blank..
    If you ain't down for the ones that suffered in South Africa
    from apartheid and shit
    Devil you need to step your punk ass to the side
    and let us brothers, and us Africans, step in
    and start puttin some FOOT, in that ass!!)

    "Break 'em off somethin" (repeat 8X)

    Chorus: Snoop Doggy Dogg (repeat 2X)

    I got my finger on the trigger so niggaz wonder why
    But livin in the city it's do-or-die

    [Daz]
    Dem wonder why me violent and no really understand
    For de reason why me take me law, in me own, hand
    Me not out for peace and me not Rodney King
    De gun goes - click, me gun goes - bang
    Dem riot in Compton and dem riot in Long Beach
    Dem riot in L.A. cause dem no really wanna see
    niggaz start to loot and police start to shoot
    Lock us down at seven o'clock, barricades us like Beirut
    Me don't show no love cause it's us against dem
    Dem never ever love me cause it's sport to break dem
    and kill, at my own risk, if I may
    to lay, to spray, with my AK, and put it to rest

    Interlude: (*female reporter*)

    (Yes we have
    There have been riots, ahh uh, rioting
    Well I don't wanna say rioting
    but there's been looting downtown
    But right now Bree, what I want to show you is
    they have started fires down at the end of the street)

    [All] How many niggaz are ready to loot?
    [Snoop] Yeah, so what you wanna do?
    [Dre] What you wanna do?
    [All] I said how many niggaz are ready to loot?

    "Got myself a Uzi and my brother a 9" --> KRS-One

    (That's what they told us today
    In other words, you still a slave
    No matter how much money you got, you still ain't shit)

    [Dr. Dre]
    Sittin in my living room, calm and collected
    Feelin that gotta-get-mine perspective
    cause what I just heard, broke me in half
    and half the niggaz I know, plus the niggaz on the Row is bailin
    Laugh now but cry much later
    Ya see when niggaz get together
    they get mad cause they can't fade us
    Like my niggaz from South Central, Los Angeles
    They found that they couldn't handle us
    Bloods, Crips on the same squad
    with the Ese's help and nigga it's time to rob and mob
    (And break the white man off somthin lovely, biddy-bye-bye
    I don't love dem so dem can't love me)
    Yo, straight puttin it down gettin my scoot on
    It's jump in off in Compton so I gots to get my loot on
    and come up on me some furniture or somethin
    Got a VCR, in the back of my car
    that I ganked from the Slausson Swap Meet
    And motherfuckers better not try to stop me
    Cause they will see that I can't be stopped
    cause I'ma cock my Glock and pop til they all drop

    Interlude: (*female reporter, then male reporter*)

    (Yes on the videotape we seem to have the
    ahh, people in the crowd throwing things at the officers)

    (And swinging at them as well, as a result
    A young woman there, you see took a swing
    at at an officer with some object in her hand)

    [All] How many niggaz are ready to move?
    [Snoop] Yeah, so what you wanna do?
    [Dre] What you wanna do?
    [All] I said how many niggaz are ready to move?

    "Got myself a Uzi and my brother a 9" --> KRS-One

    Chorus

    [RBX]
    One-Time trigger happy, no nigga love
    One-eighty-seven time, time to grab the glove
    Can't get prints on a nine I throw away
    or get prints on my Uzi when it spray
    POP POP, POP, another motherfucker drop
    And I get relief like, "plop plop fizz"
    Smash, I crashed his head like a window
    I ain't Nintendo, I'm high off the indo
    Creepin, with the quickness, to the cut
    Bust, one to his head, while he munches on a donut
    and crack-up, so now he best to back up
    I guess I gots to pack up, filling, the clip up
    I zip up-town, but motherfuckin cops are all around
    Helicopters flyin, these motherfuckers tryin
    to catch me and stretch me on Death Row
    But hell no, suppose black refuse to go??

    Interlude: (*male reporter*)

    (This is now coverin a very, very wide area of Los Angeles
    where these fires have been, aah, ignited
    I mean, from here to the, aah
    to the South end of South Central is a long way

    "Break 'em off somethin" (repeat 8X)

    [Daz]
    The outcome of this is destruction, so them all fall
    Niggaz don't give a fuck, so them bust and them fall
    The, description of three blacks
    shows no justice, so, pick up it's your right
    If you riot again, me, turn the other cheek
    We, be too many, me got, me nine to my side
    So me bust, flick, cause he don't give a fuck
    and me don't give a fuck
    And all my problems end with that BUCK BUCK

    [Snoop Doogy Dogg]
    Blak blam, blam til dem fall
    Listen to the shots from my nigga Doggy Dogg, biddy-bye
    Dr. Dre, him bust gun shots
    Diggity Daz and RBX, dem bust gun shots
    Come again!
