Nate Dogg These Days Lyrics

(Chorus) x2
These days, you gotta be strapped
I'm already knowin ain't nobody got my back
these days you gotta be down
who said it was easy claiming Dogg Pound

I believe I got to see
we been makin music since we were kids
its all I wanna do, for life
keepin it real until the day I die
I stay funkish in my way
continue to mash and dont forget to pray
I keep my hand on my steel
because I love my life and I always will
whatever people say to me
I take it in stride I'm thinkin negro league
if you really dont know me
then you best back up, I suggest strongly
they started this DPG
until the day I D-I-E
for my L-I-F and E
no matter where I look thats all I see
and I know...

(Chorus) x2

Many n____z play to me
I think its because they see me on BET
cuz everybody knows my name
all the police think I'm serving game
jealous n____z call us out
but I dont worry long as I hear their mouths
if ever they decide to kill
you better be prepared cuz i know I will
I think I can guarantee
you dont wanna be standin next to me
before my final curtain call
my mistakes they really wont be long
if we b__p this in the streets
or even at some party
you n____z really can't see me
my request is that you stop trying
before I let go...

Chorus x2
