GANGSTA DRE - Highway Music lyrics

rate me

Some of this high...music

[Verse 1]

Fire up the vega, and listen to this playa gangsta

I been in this game for one year, but man I'm on my way to the tip

Flipped the script along time ago when I was young

Eleven years old and learned how to flip the tongue and had them sprung

Tried to tell them foos the last time

They shouldn't have let young gangsta get up on the mic up in the past time

I was taught to hit it, and make it last

Playa from the past, and had the ladies on the dance floor shakin that ass

Reminiscin on '91, beatin on the walls of juvenile hall

Pushin my button til' this bitch broke and ask her to make a head call

They rushed a brotha and he took a fall

I seen my homie and he tell a nigga stand tall

I seen my brother in the gym and I give him dap

Then bust a few freestyle's to let him know I rap

I said when I get out of this A-Y Six I'm finna be makin music

Pick up a mic and show these suckas how to use it

Let's hit the highway

[Chorus x2]

One day I was headed for the highway

Gettin high as a bird, high as a bird

One day I was headed for the highway

Gettin high as a bird, I think it was a Friday

[Verse 2]

Kickin back, unexplainable to the eye

Chillin off in the cuts, makin everybody think that I'm shy

But I'm a true to life, laid back gangsta draw the line

Respect for every young black man, cuz us black men been through hard times

My hard rhymes create a bond

Within the strange environment

I be livin in, tryin to get the dividends

Keepin it real, at the same time gotta keep my name up

Absorb it like a life size sponge

Gotta keep my game up, came up

From a long way

Cuz back in the days, they used to say, you aint gone never come up and

make it big Gangsta Dre

That's what they thought

That's what they talked

But when this raw uncut game hit the streets

I'm knowin that's what they thought

man it's a, cold world up on these streets of mine

If these youngsters aint out jackin, they made out on the grind

Cloud 1-9 is my state of mind

Stick to the code or comense to pay your fine

Let's hit the highway

[Chorus x2]

Think it was a Friday

Gettin high as a bird, think it was a Friday
