Personally, this is one of my favorite rap songs of all time. It is shedding a completely different light on what it means to be a 'gangsta'.
"Now gangsta-ass niggas come in all shapes and colors" : This is perspective-altering. Geto Boys are suggesting that anyone can be a gangster. It is a philosophy, and a way of life, but it is not exclusive to those committing crimes and living in a bad neighborhood. Brilliant take on the term 'gangster', and one which has (as far as I'm aware) not been made before or since by any mainstream rapper.
