Artist: Ice Cube f/ Public Enemy Album: Kill at Will EP Song: Tales From the Darkside (Remix) Typed by: dy_face@hotmail.com [Intro: Tom Brokaw] Good Evening! - this is Los Angles A city with many claims on America, including this one It is now the gang Capital of the nation Last year alone, there were 452 gang related murders In the various Los Angles area We will see if there's anything we can be done about all of this It's just another nigga dead -------> Ice Cube It's just another nigga dead -------> Ice Cube (*Sample of L.A.P.D Sirens*) [Ice Cube] Peace, don't make me laugh! All I hear is motherfuckers rapping sucotash Living large, telling me to get out the gang I'm a nigga, got to live by the trigger How the fuck do you figure? That I can say peace and the gunshots will cease?! Every cop killing goes ignored They just send another nigga to the morgue A point scored, they could give a fuck about us They rather catch us with guns and white powder If I was old, they'd probably be friend of me Since I'm young, they consider me the enemy They kill ten of me to get the job correct To serve, protect, and break a nigga's neck Cause I'm the one with the trunk of funk And Fuck the Police in the tape deck You should listen to me, cause there's more to see Call my neighborhood a ghetto cause it houses minorities The other color don't know you can run but not hide These are tales from the darkside [Chorus] Endangered Species It's just another nigga dead ------> Ice Cube Endangered Species [Chuck D] All of us say it, Danger damn!! [Skit #1: Quotes from Trespass movie by King James (Ice-T)] No, no, no, no, no, no, please No, no, no, no, no, no, don't shoot Don't shoot, don't shoot, no don't shoot [Ice Cube] You wanna free Africa? - I stare at ya Cause we ain't got it too good in America I can't fuck with them overseas My homeboy died over a key of cocaine, it was plain and simple The 9 millimeter went (*pop*) to the temple (*pop pop pop*) was the sound I put the bitch down, and ran to the schoolyard bathroom Looked in the trash can, yo, it had room So I ducked my ass in it for a minute Covered with trash, I had to lay back Mad as fuck, thinking about the payback Tonight the crew gonna have a little fun I went home and cut the barrel of my shotgun It's getting critical, I stole a 5.0 I let it go, drive real slow I yelled out: Ice Cube sucker The shot gun kicked, and it murdered motherfuckers I told you last album when I got a sawed off, bodies are hauled off It's a shame, that niggaz die young But to the light side, it don't matter none It'll be a drive by homicide But to me, it's just another tale from the darkside [Skit #2: Patrol Cops pulling someone over] [Cop #1] Just walk out, out your car! [Cop #2] You're under conrol [Girl:-] I told you, to look out (*Sample of L.A.P.D Sirens*) [Nigga] Shut up, bitch!! [Flavor Flav] Yo Chuck, these devilish people, they're still fronting on us Let them know we can do this, the PO wants to do this Ha ha, yeaaaaahhhh boyyyyyyyyy [Chuck D] Standing in the middle of war, the minute we flex When we die, we won't make Jet Ebony, can't see to the lightside The term they apply to us is a nigga Call it what you want, cause I'm coming from the coroner Saying my rhymes without Ph.D. Who's black? - don't wanna role, sells his soul Watch his head go rolling Who the fuck are they fooling? Nobody knows, but I suppose the color of my clothes Matches the color of the one on my face As they wonder what's under my waist "Standing on the verge.." of them getting brown that's a fact Got a fear on their bozack Run, run, run, their ass off, they can not hide Yet Cube, they can't fuck with the darkside [Chorus] Endangered Species It's just another nigga dead --------> Ice Cube [Skit #3: Quotes from Trespass movie by King James (Ice-T)] No, no, no, no, no, no, please No, no, no, no, no, no, please man No, no, no, no, no, no, please Wait, don't shoot Don't shoot, no don't shoot
