[Chorus]
I'm a full time hustla posted on the block,
Got to get it how I live and I'm never going to stop.
Now that's gangsta, now that's gangsta
When me ride through the hood you can here the bass knock,
All me girls them love me have me have city locked
Now that's gangsta, now that's gangsta
[Verse 1]
Mane I'm a gangsta, g-a-n-g-s-t-a mane,
A gangsta the best to come up out of PA mane,
A gangsta seldom seen but always heard,
A real gangsta more than just a 7 letter word,
A gangsta ain't ya clothes,
A gangsta ain't ya hat, your watch ring your chain naw a gangsta ain't that,
A gangsta can have that but he ain't got to show it,
Cause with or without it hes still gangsta and you know it,
From my head to my toe with it it ain't to hard to see,
Said I'm a gangsta ain't too many as hard as me,
You claimin g but you ain't gangsta jack
So tell all them fake gangstas I'm coming to take gangsta back.
[Chorus]
[Verse 2]
Mane I'm a gangsta now let me tell you what that means,
See I'm a gangsta always got my mind on my green,
And I'm a gangsta always gon do what I got to do,
Unless it's giving game to police and sellin' out his crew,
That's something gangstas don't do a gangsta keep it trill
A gangsta do a crime he do his time on the real,
A gangsta don't squeal and tell on everyone he know,
Put a jacket on ya boy you ain't a gangsta yous a hoe,
A gangsta hold his homeboys down when they gone,
A gangsta put him back on his feet when he home,
A gangsta is a homeboy that never turn his back,
On another real homie and that's a well known fact
That thats gangsta
[Chorus]
[Verse 3]
Mane I'm a gangsta call me the hood superstar,
And I'm a gangsta ridin' in my candy painted car,
Cause see a gangsta always down to rep for his hood,
And to do a little bad so I can do a little good,
A gangsta don't forget where he came from
No matter where he go or where he been keep it gangsta till the end,
Cause I'm a gangsta and I'm a always love my city,
Make money but don't act like I'm above my city,
Cause gangstas will always give back to the ghetto,
And gangstas will never turn their back to the ghetto,
That's a fact in the ghetto, it's never been a lie,
So I'm a keep it gangsta till the day that I die.
I'm a full time hustla posted on the block,
Got to get it how I live and I'm never going to stop.
Now that's gangsta, now that's gangsta
When me ride through the hood you can here the bass knock,
All me girls them love me have me have city locked
Now that's gangsta, now that's gangsta
[Verse 1]
Mane I'm a gangsta, g-a-n-g-s-t-a mane,
A gangsta the best to come up out of PA mane,
A gangsta seldom seen but always heard,
A real gangsta more than just a 7 letter word,
A gangsta ain't ya clothes,
A gangsta ain't ya hat, your watch ring your chain naw a gangsta ain't that,
A gangsta can have that but he ain't got to show it,
Cause with or without it hes still gangsta and you know it,
From my head to my toe with it it ain't to hard to see,
Said I'm a gangsta ain't too many as hard as me,
You claimin g but you ain't gangsta jack
So tell all them fake gangstas I'm coming to take gangsta back.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988.
"'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it."
"There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."
No Surprises
Radiohead
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.
