Xzibit, B-Real and Demrick - Before the Streets Lock Down

"This America"
"This America"
"This America exists no more as we know it
If you notice when he makes speeches, there is no more Presidential Seal behind him
Which means we are under motherfucking Marshall Law, and there are no elections!"

All my neighbors out of work, rent due, said fuck it on the first
Pockets hurt, it's about to get worse feeling like a curse
Or a plague in a hospital bed in the air wanna know what it's all worth
I heard you need a ventilator, don't worry you'll be fine, you gone get it later
Ticking time bomb, I'm the detonator
Dictator, mow you down like the Terminator, yeah
Common denominator annihilator, I could cap but you want a Phi Beta
Ain't no switching or changing your mind hater
Y'all niggas is pussy, you need a vibrator
You better stop it like break pads, but your hand sanitizer and a face mask
Standing six feet apart never shake hands
Quarantine taking kids out of class, think a bunch of toilet paper bout' save your ass

"Take that shit off your faces it's pointless
Because, you see this? This is this is the largest organ on your body, the skin
So, you just covering up your face? Shit don't make sense, yo!"

Hit 'em with a little bit of truth this year
I'ma keep it dirty 'til it's crystal clear
Listen here my nigga, my heart's in my chest
In a bullet proof vest, and it don't pump fear
Never scared of America lock down, we're used to being on lock down
Stocks down, no mom and pops around
The hot sound of lead flying at ya, I'm in my element nigga I'm doing fine
Catch a motherfucker creeping I'ma kill em on my property
Not one of you motherfuckers stopping me
I'm a serial killer so I'm killing 'em properly
Irresponsibly honestly, constantly
We could all use some relief and release for awhile
'Fore the food dry up and the police lock down (down, down, down)
Before the streets locked down

"Only you going to Hollywood
Why you think they all at home now? Ain't no more HollywoodbBruh!
Ain't no more Hollywood
Motherfuckers in and in Michigan with rifles and sawed off shotguns
They ain't going home, they ain't staying home
You know why they wanna keep you in the house"

Living the dream, and maybe you know what I mean
Life is getting the cream and maybe you don't need a thing
Give me the ring that got you feeling like a king
And when they take it away, what you're feeling is the sting
Who would have thought a lot about until lock down
Another depression pandemic bringing the block down
Unemployment at an all time high, pharmaceuticals making a killing
Watching us die, 45, telling us lies media wars on the rise
You don't know who to trust, you just want to go outside
Put your mask on like a bandit, understand it, it goes down like they planned it
Damn if I don't get up now and I don't say something
Media talking but they don't say nuthin', one attack and the other to break news
People deny and call it fake news
