Bow Down (Westside Connection) by Ice Cube

The world is mine, nigga, get back
Don't fuck with my stack, the gage is racked
About to drop the bomb, I'm the motherfuckin' don
Big fish in a small pond

Now the Feds tryna throw they book at the crook
But I shook they worm an' they hook
Guppies hold they breath, they wanna miss me when I'm tipsy
Runnin' everythin' west of the Mississippi

It's the unseen, pullin' strings wit my pinky ring
We got your woman, pucker up 'fo we fuck her up
Bow down before I make a phone call
Got 25 niggaz runnin' up on y'all

Fo' the cheese, we want them keys
Everybody freeze on ya' knees, butt naked please
Before any of you guppies get heart
Nigga, rewind my part, fool

An' bow down when I come to your town
Bow down when I'm west-ward bound
Bow down 'cause I ain't no hater like you
Bow down to a nigga that's greater than you

I take ten steps an' I draw
Now who's dissin' the mad ass Inglewood addition
I bust like a pimple, my mind is illmental
The Westside connects with me an' South Central

When the drag from the zig zag can't fuck with the Philly's
Holdin' down the Wild West, like the kid they call Billy
Once again, it's Mack 10, the gold crown holder
Strong as a Coca Cola with a chrome pistola

Now who wanna fuss so I can buss when I cuss?
My look bring you fear with gear from the Surplus
Since a teen, I chased the green, the crack scene king
Lolos, Cornishes an' Bagguetts on my pieces

So recognize these real Gs, chase the cheese
The Westside Connection keep it rollin' like gold Ds
Three wheelin' and dealin' is like the California style
But in the meanwhile, in my town you got to bow

Bow down when you come to my town
Bow down when I'm west-ward bound
Bow down because I ain't no hater like you
Bow down to a nigga that's greater than you

Well it's that Chuck wearin', still sportin' a beanie
The shadiest nigga in the click, who want to see me?
As I slide my locs on, let my khakis hang
Westside Connect gang, Connect gang bing bing bang

Run away, run away or get yo' punk ass slayed
By this H. double O. to D. to the S.T.A
Fuck hidin' it, I am gang related, simple an' plain
Which means I could give a fuck about you nigga's in the rap game

Flashy nigga's get stuck up, beat the fuck up
When you come around, keep your chain tucked
From this zero zero apostrophe S shit
Fuck a studio lyricist, I'm real with this

Talk the talk, walk the walk
Dis me on wax, I'm tryin' to saw your whole fuckin' head off ,nya
I'm platinum bond, so bitch, shut up
An' nigga all ya' could kiss my Converse like sho' nuff

Bow down when you come to my town
Bow down when I'm west-ward bound
Bow down 'cause I ain't no hater like you
Bow down to a nigga that's greater than you

Bow down when you come to our town
Bow down when we west-ward bound
Bow down 'cause we ain't no haters like you
Bow down to some niggas that's greater than you

Yea, tell you somethin'
Gangsta's make the world go round, so you ain't gotta clown
But if you livin' on tha West side of yo' town
Make them other fools bow down
Westside connection, world renowned to us

Bow down, bow down, bow down

Bow down when you come to our town
Bow down when we west-ward bound
Bow down 'cause we ain't no haters like you
Bow down to some niggas that's greater than you, fool
