[00:00.847]Now everybody wants to know the truth
[00:03.343]About a brother named Quik
[00:04.723]I come from the school of the sly,
[00:06.371]Wicked and the slick
[00:07.545]A lot of people already know exactly where it's at
[00:09.970]Cause it's the home of the jackers and the crack
[00:12.269](Compton) Yeah, that's the name of the hometown
[00:15.104]I'm throwing down in the town where
[00:16.447]My name is all around
[00:17.610]The suckers just be havin a fit, and that's a pity
[00:20.140]But I ain't doing nothing but (claiming my city)
[00:22.601]See, my lyrics I'm doubling up
[00:23.822]And proving to suckers that I can throw em
[00:25.283]I'm passing a natural ten or four
[00:26.410]Or six or eight before I go
[00:27.766]Yes, I'm definitely freestyling,
[00:29.348]All the while still profiling
[00:30.379]Never tricks, the DJ Quikster steals the show
[00:32.343]So that's how I'm livin, I do as I please, you see
[00:35.685]A younger brother that's up on reality
[00:38.507]Cause everybody knows you have to be stomping
[00:40.944]If you're born and raised in Compton
[00:42.721](Born and raised)
[00:45.402](Born and raised)
[00:48.166](Born and raised in Compton)
[00:58.000]
[01:03.884](Where you from, fool?)
[01:04.546](Compton)
[01:05.408]Now Compton is the place where the homeboys chill,
[01:07.425]You see
[01:07.959]But then I found that it wasn't no place for me
[01:10.223]Cause way back in the day somebody
[01:12.127]Must of wanted me to quit
[01:13.243]Because they broke in my house
[01:14.519]And cold stole my shit
[01:15.808]They musta thought that
[01:17.025]I was gonna play the punk role
[01:18.199]Just because my equipment got stole
[01:20.799]But I ain't going out like no sucker-ass clown
[01:22.878]They found they couldn't keep a **** nigga down
[01:26.000]So here's some bass in your face,
[01:27.546]Mutha****a silly sucker-
[01:28.567]Ass clucker, now you're duckin,
[01:29.878]Cause you can't stop a brother
[01:31.202]Like the Quiksta, because I'm true to the game
[01:33.721]You're lame, and things ain't going never be the same
[01:36.287]Cause a nigga like the Quik is takin over
[01:38.481]I really don't think I should have to explain
[01:41.046]It, oh yeah, I'm a dog, but my name ain't Rover
[01:43.763]And I'm the kinda nigga that's feeling no pain
[01:46.423]Sometimes I have to wear a bullet-proof vest
[01:48.905]Because I got the 'CPT' sign written across my chest
[01:51.741]A funky shit brother never ceases to impress
[01:54.201]My name is DJ Quik, so you can **** the rest
[01:56.719]I'm comin like this, and I'm comin directly
[01:59.923]Cause suckers get dain-bramaged if
[02:01.283]I'm doin damage quite effectively
[02:02.920]Rhymin is a battlezone, and suckers have no win
[02:05.298]Cause I'm a veteran from the C-O-M-P-T-O-N
[02:08.874]Kick it
[02:09.537](Born and raised)
