Mack 10

Mack 10 - Based on a True Story lyrics

solo album titled "Based On A True Story " and according to reliable

sources Ha he laughs in the face of the sophomore jinx. After the

release of Westside Connection and Mack's new record gangster rap

seems to be at an all time high.

Verse 1

Either the thrill of victory or the agony of defeat

you either got ends or struggle to make ends meet

You can either turn square or keep the mind of a rebel

some uppity livin' good some faced with death in the ghetto

I'm a product of the streets so I vow to never slip

so I trust no one and keep a P. Coltrane on my hip

I always paid attention while my O.G's was teachin'

Rule number one if it's on blast the first nigga reachin'

either death or the pen' shit I had to do better

It was a must I moved on and now I'm all about cheddar

a young entrepreneur I rather slang than bang

now girls be like you go Mack 10 baby do yo thang

So I continue to get down and I keep writin' rhymes

and I parlay every dollar to flip at least a hundred times

So keep your game tight and it's all fame and glory

and everything I recite's Based On A True Story

Chorus

You can feel nigga

It's based on a true story

You know it's real nigga

Based on a true story

Verse 2

The year 1986 is when it all started

now eleven years later we still rough and cold hearted

and as the saga continues I ride the wave like a Sea Doo

not to knock hip hop but gangsta rap is what we do

Niggas on they first album

already sold a mil'

So before you knock our style

at least admit that it's real

It's all sex drugs and violence

so you pretend you ain't checkin'

You mean to tell me people

really ain't dyin' every second

Now y'all made the rules

niggas can say what they choose

So if you gone ban Gangsta rap

then you got to ban the news

That means no weather report

no Waco and the bad reverand

No channel 4 channel 7 and no film at eleven

With no high school diplomas we became millionaires

media mad 'cause we winning and we really playin' fair

So keep your game tight and it's all fame and glory

and everything I recite's Based On A True Story

Chorus

Verse 3

I crumble green on a magazine

ready to roll a joint

damn in this billboard

I'm number one with a hollow point

It was a rough road ahead

but for my kids I gotta pave it

so I twist one shake the weed out

close the book up and save it

'Cause my son li'l Mack

might grow up and have a crew

and he can show all his homies

this what my daddy used to do

See I was raised around gangstas

and grindas since a youth
