ICE CUBE lyrics : "True To The Game"

It's the ^!$$% ya love to hate with a new song
So what really goes on
Nothing but a come-up, but ain't that a (*##$

They hate to see a young ^!$$% rich
But I refuse to switch even though
Cause I can't move to the snow

Cause soon as y'all get some dough
Ya wanna put a white (*##$ on your elbow
Moving out your neighborhood

But I walk through the ghetto and the flavor's good
Little kids jumping on me
But you, you wanna be white and corny

Living way out
"!@^% go home" spray-painted on your house
Trying to be White or a Jew

But ask yourself, who are they to be equal to?
Get the hell out
Stop being an Uncle Tom, you little sell-out

House ^!$$% scum
Give something back to the place where you made it from
Before you end up broke

$#&@ around and get your ghetto pass revoked
I ain't saying no names, you know who you are
You little punk, be true to the game


[BREAK]



When you first start rhyming
It started off slow and then you start climbing

But it wasn't fast enough I guess
So you gave your other style a test
You was hardcore hip-hop

Now look at yourself, boy you done flip-flopped
Giving our music away to the mainstream
Don't you know they ain't down with the team

They just sent they boss over
Put a bug in your ear and now you crossed over
On MTV but they don't care

They'll have a new ^!$$% next year
You out in the cold
No more white fans and no more soul

And you might have a heart attack
When you find out the black folks don't want you back
And you know what's worse?

You was just like the ^!$$% in the first verse
Stop selling out your race
And wipe that stupid-ass smile off your face

^!$$%s always gotta show they teeth
Now I'm a be brief
Be true to the game


[BREAK]



A message to the oreo cookie
Find a mirror and take a look, G

Do you like what you see?
But you're quick to point the finger at me
You wanna be the big fish, you little guppy

Black man can't be no yuppie
You put on your suit and tie and your big clothes
You don't $$#ociate with the Negroes

You wanna be just like Jack
But Jack is calling you a ^!$$% behind your back
So back off genius

I don't need you to correct my broken English
You know that's right
You ain't white

So stop holding your $$# tight
Cause you can't pass
So why you keep trying to pass?

With your black $$#
Mister Big
But in reality, you're shorter than a midge

You only got yourself to blame
Get a grip, oreo and be true to the game




Be true to the game!
