Haaa uuuuggggghhhh

this is for all the G's ou there

we bout it bout it

and g ettes i ain't forget about y'all uuuugggghhhh

gold look like this here



today I have a half an ounce

tomorrow I'll have a key

and if you tryin' to get some ice cream

won't you call me or won't you beep me



Looked out the window

it must be the giggidy first of the month

cause everybody in the ghetto is smilin' and dressed up

Little kids havin' fun in my neighborhood

And fiends walkin' up, talkin' bout its all good

See I'm a G, ????? I got that 2 for 3

And y'all a know that I slang, that I-see-E

And everybody in the ghetto use nicknames

Like V-90, Master P, Boz, and Big Man

My little homies posted up

some hang, hang, and some slangin'

Others gang bangin'

I'm tryin' to make it out the hood with this gangsta rap

And stay TRU to the game, and put the town on the map

But haters hate me and niggas try to talk shit

Cause I done made, a dollar out of 15 cents

On the curb, posted up with them bouldas

And servin' fiends, A-1 yola

And still tryin' stay true with my frist meal

Cause in the ghetto, you got money, you might get killed

And stayin' TRU to the game, is a part of life

And if you don't player, you might lose your life



-chorus-

Tru 2 da game, Tru 2 da game

Ain't nothin' changed but my bank account

I'm still the same



[Silkk the Shocker]

Tryin' to have things major, they can't fade me

cash the chips like casino

Today I'm a keep it real, and chill, and get blitzed like Marino

My girl be fussin', she be tussin', constantly buggin'

Askin' me why I be hustlin'

I got money to make, so motherfuck it

I'm a keep it real, if it kills me

y'all gonna feel me before I'm done

Ball till I have it all, I want the whole while

if not, I don't want none

Why I hang with the same ol' niggas

That's what they ask me

I be like, I'm the same ol' nigga

But 'stead, right now, I gets my sacks free

I gots to stay TRU fool, about my motherfuckin' mail

I'll be a rich ass nigga, y'all gonna be visitin' me in the jail

I gots to ball, can't fall, gotta have things major

If you don't believe me, next year round this time

its Silkk up on his pager (then ask me)



-chorus-



[Big Ed]

Bustas can't see me, they blind

I claim TRU, I thought you knew

My foes catch elbows, cause I'm on em like a tattoo

Man I'm layin' low like the eyes of a danked out china man

Stayin' gangstafied

While I'm tryin' to make a million

But politicians run for office

They rather me bust a cap in a rat, cause they both gonna try and stop

this

Gangsta rap is what they call it

But I gots to come with the realness

So all my folks can feel this



-chorus-



[Mr. Serv-On]

Now I lay me down to sleep

I pray the Lord that my momma will never weep

and let her live in peace and stop spendin' a hundred G's up in her sleep

When will it stop

I guess when they leave me lyin' on the block

With tears on my glock

A pocket full of lemon drops, laughin' at crooked cops

I guess I'm doin' what I gotta do

As long as I stay TRU, until they put me through

I know its a shame, things'll never change

I hope I live long enough to see my daughter spell my name

I'm TRU 2 Da Game



-chorus-



[Master P]

still the same

Master P, the whole TRU click (y'all gonna feel this)

TRU to the gizame (tru to da hood)

money can't change you, it just can make you

(never forget where i came from)

No Limit Records, Down South Hustlers (independent black owned)

and the West Coast Bad Boyz

and I told y'all, I can drop something anytime I want to

y'all done realized by now, the haters done fell off

Cause they ain't TRU 2 da game

I could never forget where I came from

I'm from the ghetto

But I won't ever change

Cause I'm TRU 2 da game, believe that

Keepin' it real, keepin' it real

Never sell out, can never sell out

TRU 2 Da Gizame

Love in a Vacuum
'Til Tuesday
Well, in my opinion this song is about being a young & maybe a little naive &/or introverted girl and finding yourself loving a man who is at first very charming, carefree & outgoing, and seems at first to be without limits, as in "There was a time you opened up every doorway you didn't mind if everything wasn't your way" then that man starts to gradually become more introverted & shows their more possessive/obsessive side to you as the relationship progresses, even while they keep up the appearance of being carefree & outgoing to everyone else, "Don't pull away that goes against what you told me I look in your eyes I realize what you've sold me is love in a vacuum" so you confront them about the way they're acting and of course they deny it, "I think you've changed but you insist that that's not true" quite possibly they are an addict of some sort, my guess would be cocaine, &/or showing very obsessive behavior towards you (early on in the video for this song we see the man hanging a picture up, it is a very large portrait of Aimee & it is prominently displayed in his/their apartment for the duration of the song), thus their "love in a vacuum", "You look so strange, so distant that you're hardly you Now I can see how you have been acting different You say it's me but I know that it isn't it's love in a vacuum" but still you are in love with them and don't want to leave them and you know that they are truly in love with you and they don't want you to leave them either, maybe they are convinced you can save them from themself, maybe they are so broken that the possibility of an overdose &/or suicide attempt is very real and you want to get through to them that their behavior not only dangerous but it is also just pissing you off and if they don't wise up they run the risk of loosing you, as in the lines "You will be lonely if you leave me alone", so you want to save them but can't get through to them due to the addiction &/or emotional problems they have, "Love in a vacuum and that's not enough love in a vacuum You will be lonely you'll be the only one who feels this way You will be lonely if you leave me alone You will be lonely you'll be the only one who feels this way it's just not enough" you want them to understand that the love they are giving you is not enough when it is filtered through the vacuum of their drug addiction &/or emotional impairment, "You will be lonely you'll be the only one who feels this way it's just not enough and just wait you will be lonely Love in a vacuum Love in a vacuum and that's not enough Love in a vacuum". 'Love In A Vacuum' for me is a hauntingly truthful acute argument on the loneliness of obsession and almost inevitable loss of love that follows people who are broken in some way or another; the obsessives, the coke heads, the drunks, addicts or the just-plain-old emotionally broken; a razor sharp, lyrically driven, deceptively poppy, yet ultimately-depressing-in-the-best-way song. Quintessential Aimee Mann.

Warren wanted a Beach Boys thing for this one, and Carl Wilson and Billy Hinsche came in, with Carl arranging the vocal parts. The other harmony vocalists (credited as the "Gentlemen Boys") were Jackson Browne, J.D. Souther, Zevon's longtime backers Waddy Wachtel and Jorge Calderon, and Linda Rondstadt/Stone Poneys guitarist Kenny Edwards.

Corpse I Fell In Love With
Gadjits, The
He reuses the verse melody from the previous album's "Dirty Little Religion", the topics of the verses are all over the place, and he packs too many words into one line (goes to show...) and too few in another (it's pretty hard to find), and rhymes "Henley Regatta" with "Persona non grata", but gets away with it all as only he could.

I think much like another song “Anti-Matter” (that's also on the same album as this song), this one is also is inspired by a horrifying van crash the band experienced on Nov 3, 2022. This, much like the other track, sounds like it's an extension what they shared while huddled in the wreckage, as they helped frontman Garrett Russell stem the bleeding from his head wound while he was under the temporary effects of a concussion. The track speaks of where the mind goes at the most desperate & desolate of times, when it just about slips away to all but disconnect itself, and the aftermath.
