The Letter Lyrics

    Intro:

    (*man, have you heard this stuff?
    This gangsta rap? it's fuckin bullshit.
    They're just talkin about dealin drugs and,
    Beatin on people and shit,
    Carryin guns to the studio. it's fucked up shit.
    And y'know, you niggas
    Can't communicate with people*)
    [mack 10] aw fuck you, you punk ass motherfucker
    What the fuck you mean we can't communicate with people?
    I tell you what, since we can't communicate, eh-eh
    Eh b (yo) i'm gonna write this motherfucker a letter (alright)
    Eh dogg, hand me my notebook (here you go, dogg)

    Verse one:

    To whom it may concern whoever you may be
    Before you criticise, try to understand me
    If this shit do a million everytime you drop it
    Then you would be foolish to change the topic
    I straight fiend for the cheddar, you know i got to get it
    So i swing for the fence everytime i hit it
    I been raised around the gangsta shit since elementary
    With gz and the feds and the state penitentiary
    I'm from the place where the enemies put the scope on you
    And when the police pull you over they plant dope on you
    But you do what you need to feed your kids and your girl
    But you bastards don't even understand my world
    What you know about bangin, drug distributin and lootin
    Eviction notices and, drive-by shootin?
    So to whom it may concern, this letter is to show
    That real niggas only rap about what they know

    Chorus:

    I do it all for the cash, scrilla and the doe
    If you ban gangsta rap then i gotta sell blow
    To whom it may concern, this letter is to show
    That real niggas only rap about what they know
    *repeat*

    Verse two:

    I done had it up to here with the ass kissin
    Plus a nigga fed up with the media dissin
    Politicians protest and hate like the rest
    While niggas in the ghetto remain under stress
    But i stay gangsta, keep bangin and hittin switches
    While some west coast gz act like bitches
    How the fuck you gonna speak against gangsta rap, nigga?
    When that's what the fuck made you a gang of snaps, nigga
    Fool was the shit, now how could you dare
    Become a millionaire and forget what got you there?
    Fuck that, i hit a stick laced with embalment fluid
    And make jams that make ya b and c walk to it
    I was able to bang the hood and pack a fo'-fo'
    Avoid the po-po and become a rap pro
    So to whom it may concern, this letter is to show
    That real niggas only rap about what they know

    Chorus

    Verse three:

    I keep my pants saggin and my boxers showin
    And nigga it's hoo bangin for life in case you ain't knowin
    Look at the cops, i know they fed around and fiest out
    Peepin me cos i'm a thug and the watches iced out
    I got homies cookin chemicals like a chemist
    Next thing ya know we're outta town with birds flippin like a gymnast
    All we know is bang or boss so we're jugglin
    Can't get a job with two strikes so we're drug smugglin
    Wit heat on my back like i'm solar, wit a pistola
    Mashin thru the ghetto witta car fulla yola
    But i'd rather write rhymes and rap over beats
    And if they ban that then a nigga still got to eat
    In every situation poverty's what i'm facin
    So i leave shell cases and keep my smoker's free basin
    So to whom it may concern, this letter is to show
    That real niggas only rap about what they know

    Outro:

    Ps, all you punk motherfuckers out there
    Hatin on us young niggas gettin all this money, eat a dick!
    Cos we gon' stay rich, and continue to do our
    Thang and forever hoo ridin and hoo bang, nigga

    Chorus to fade
