I done seen a lot of niggas come up in this game
But never did they make it look so good
From candy cars to bright yellow bras
The gangsta white walls and the wood
You see, there comes a time in a man's life
Where you gotta choose the goods of the game
Oh, but it's so hard to turn your back on a place
Where everybody knows your name
It's a cold game, I ain't been one to
Jump in and out of the range
Maybe an old school synagogue
Spinnin' the vision from which I faint
You got to do it, you can, gotta keep rhymin'
East Side High enjoyin' life, hair blowin' in the wind
The state that I'm in is gangsta bliss
This is what you're callin' a sis
Passin' them off quick, memories missed
I made a lot of friends, a whole lot of money
Been down a couple times, but it never stopped my rhymin'
In fact, I got better, clutchin' on Berettas
Blowin' a sticky, turn it to weather
Award shows and dough, free low boat, this is how a player roll
And I never be questioned by some new young chump
Poppin' their toss, Snoopy D.O. made the way for you to walk
Owe it to the almighty, without you, it couldn't be done
Your praise put the rise of the son, you dig?
Hold closer my hands from my throne
And I never be crucified within my own zone
Here for a very good reason to show love
But you gotta separate grown man from grown thug
From almost goin' down for murder in '93
To kids all over the city bowlin' in Snoop's league
I changed, a lot smarter, I got a daughter
Two sons, beautiful wife for starters
I did it all, Jack, poppin' this peas
Eatin' international cuisine overseas, yeah
Don't judge me, you only knew Snoopy
You never tried to know Calvin, you tried to groove me up
Like some loco, I earned my respect
Did so much shit for the Coast, I should get a check
But all in all, I did it, B, cool as a blind with a C
Leveled my life as I push away the groupies
Snoopin' in a coopin', you can call me Uncle Snoopy
Don't worry about your circumstances
Take your chances, still from the LBC
For you are the C
Holla at your uncle, Snoopy
Holla at your uncle, Snoopy
I paid my dues
And now it's time to make a change
Gotta make that move
There's a time and place for everythin'
I paid my dues
And now, it's time to make a change
Gotta make that move
There's a time and place for everythin'
I paid my dues
And now, it's time to make a change
Gotta make that move
There's a time and place for everythin'
I paid my dues
And now, it's time to make a change
Gotta make that move
There's a time and place for everythin'
Don't worry about your circumstances
Take your chances, still from the LBC
For you are the C
Holla at your uncle, Snoopy
Holla at your uncle, Snoopy
