What It Iz Lyrics

[Intro]
What it iz nephew, you know
Yeah, touchdown on these suckas man
From all angles of the game and let these fools know
We ridin', we mobbin', we hoggin', we doggin', we flossin' and ballin'
So what it iz

[Chorus 2X]
What it iz, I thought that we was down to the end
My best of friends try to mash me and do me in
What it iz, I thought that we was down to the end, what it iz

[Verse 1]
Forever clockin' cash, be on the mash about my business
Honest to you niggas, crossed me and got me acting shity
Real niggas is all that I keep
Keep watching the street making it happen with the rap and the beat
This the game and we bang on other gangs
That don't play when we claim, so we knocks 'em out the frame
What a shame it is, can't be levels, can't be friends
Homies be acting funny with a smirk and a grin
But it ain't no thang until you win
Grew up as a kid giving all I can give with one life to live
Moët & Chandon keep me calm
From going off of murderin' motherfuckers, talkin' 'bout me in his song
You know what time it is, dropping these rhymes again
Anyway it goes you niggas can't see my flow
[Chorus 2X]
What it iz, I thought that we was down to the end
My best of friends try to mash me and do me in
What it iz, I thought that we was down to the end, what it iz

[Post-Chorus]
Haha, why these niggas wanna act funny with the money
Haha, we used to be down back in the day
Why these niggas wanna act funny with the money
We used to be down back in the day

[Verse 2]
Roll up a blunt
Pulling and punching give it up for nothing
Only in it for something if it ain't cheese fuck it, Roll up biz a bucket
I keep niggas coming, so watch out before your punk ass get knocked out
Stuff them words back in your mouth
Rippin' it, im down so whatchu talkin' about
I'm Daz Dillinger but still Dat Nigga Daz
Only in it just to win it and bust a nigga's ass
Only demonstration, fuck conversation with us
Only conversation to kick up dust
It's a must that I diss you niggas back with that
Plus the video talking all that smack

[Chorus 2X]
What it iz, I thought that we was down to the end
My best of friends try to blast me and do me in
What it iz, I thought that we was down to the end, what it iz
[Post-Chorus]
Haha, why these niggas wanna act funny with the money
We used to be down back in the day
Ha, Why these niggas wanna act funny with the money
We used to be down back in the day

[Verse 3]
Now the last verse
Just summin' up, if you in my way
I'm coming up get bum rushed
From running up Long Beach
Have you forgotten where you from?
Eastside Long Beach represent two-one
Blow my smoke in your face
From a joint or a bong
To let your motherfucking ass know what to get outta (?)
It's strong to be weak, watch out while I creep
With a (?) of lead in yo ass to knock you off your feet
That pimp shit don't impress me nor faze me
All that fucking work I did for y'all and y'all can't pay me?
Simple as I can say fuck y'all
This for everyone of my doggs so fuck y'all

[Chorus 2X]
What it iz, I thought that we was down to the end
My best of friends try to mash me and do me in
What it iz, I thought that we was down to the end, what it iz
[Post-Chorus]
Why these niggas wanna act funny with the money
Ha, we used to be down back in the day
Haha, why these niggas wanna act funny for the money
We used to be down back in the day
