Kam - Peace Treaty Lyrics
[ VERSE 1 ]Hittin corners in a six-trey ChevroletRag-top Impalla, top dollarGot my cousin Laid-Back ridin shotgunCause I got the front-and-back hydraulic hot oneJuiced up, and I'm itchin to hit the switchesCrawlin over train tracks, avoidin all ditchesIce-skatin on the 20-inch tiresJack up the ass, and flex the gold dayton wiresNow I'm down to take a riskGettin geeked up off a compact discI went hoppin up Crenshaw, niggas hang looseLookin for my homies to celebrate the gang truceAnd they about to throw a cook-outSo I'm puttin down the hump, we sailin on the look-outFor C.H.P., I was a teenage geeSo I'm readin a graffitiThe walls say 'peace treaty'[ VERSE 2 ]Lookin at the aftermath of the riotI can still smell the ashes>From all the clashesBut quiet is kept, it wasn't just the blacksEverybody was lootin, and had each other's backsWe came through in understandin, demandinJustice, bust this, we all had our hand inThe cookie jar, took it far enough to make a statementDaryl Gates - that's where all the hate wentWe pass by a swap meetBeen shoppin at for years, but it couldn't stop heatSee ya, wouldn't wanna be your next door neighborLess government relief checks, more labor10 percent blood suckers of the poor took a lossFor exploitation, had to show em who was bossTeach em not to be so greedyHad to shut em down, bound by a peace treatyBound by a peace treaty[ VERSE 3 ]Hit the park, bailed out the carAnd seen blue and red everywhere, look how strong we areNiggas showin up from this gang and that gangNobody set-trippin, cause it's a black thingPeople just partyin, sippin on a cupSome of the Compton F.O.I. even showed upSuited and booted, kickin it with the locsIn unity, soon we'll be lovin all black foksI heard Solo, bumpin in a BlazerClownin on a car phone, blowin up my pagerWatts-Up is on the setJust checkin out the scenery, brothers I ain't never metIs hittin me up, I had to swallow my prideJust kept steppin, hit em up and said, "Right"Ain't no drama, cause I'm mobbin with Laid-BackI seen Big Jess, Jay and K-MacThey used to work them narcoticsLike my nigga L-Wood and Renegade from the street productsWe used to jack from the rich, and then give to the needyBut now it's a peace treaty[ VERSE 4 ]And now the party's acceleratinThe whole crowd bounce, and sho nuff celebratinAin't nobody bustin shotsI bumped into Mike a/k/a Mo' Like WattsAn O.G., cause he's olderLovin every minute of it, with the camcorder on his shoulderSo he could capture the moment, and reminisceI'ma always remember thisBecause my niggas made the history booksAnd now the mystery looksA lot clearerThe man in the mirrorGot powerIt's now orNever, more than everBlack people have to stick togetherBut yo, let's hear it for the Bloods and the CripsI gots to admit itY'all brothers did itI just hope it don't ceaseFor the sake of all the homies that's restin in peace
