The Notorious BIG Things Done Changed Lyrics

Remember back in the days, when n____z had waves
Gazelle shades, and corn braids
Pitchin pennies, honies had the high top jellies
Shootin skelly, m_________ers was all friendly
Loungin at the barbeques, drinkin brews
With the neighborhood crews, hangin on the avenues
Turn your pagers, to nineteen ninety three
n____z is gettin smoked g, believe me
Talk slick, you get your neck slit quick
Cause real street n____z aint havin that s___
Totin techs for rep, smokin blunts in the project
Hallways, shootin dice all day
Wait for n____z to step up on some fightin s___
We get hype and s___ and start lifin s___
So step away with your fist fight ways
m_________er this aint back in the days, but you dont hear me though

Verse two:

No more cocoa leave-io, one two three
One two three, all of this to me, is a mystery
I hear you m_________ers talk about it
But I stay seein bodies with the m_________in chalk around it
And Im down with the s___ too
For the stupid m_________ers wanna try to use kung-fu
Instead of a mac-10 he tried scrappin
Slugs in his back and, thats what the f___ happens
When you sleep on the street
Little m_________ers with heat, want ta leave a n____ six feet deep
And we comin to the wake
To make sure the cryin and commotion aint a m_________in fake
Back in the days, our parents used to take care of us
Look at em now, they even f___in scared of us
Callin the city for help because they cant maintain
d___, s___ done changed

Verse three:

If I wasnt in the rap game
Id probably have a key knee deep in the crack game
Because the streets is a short stop
Either youre slingin crack rock or you got a wicked jumpshot
s___, its hard being young from the slums
Eatin five cent gums not knowin where your meals comin from
And now the s___s gettin crazier and major
Kids younger than me, they got the sky grand pagers
Goin outta town, blowin up
Six months later all the dead bodies showin up
It make me wanna grab the nine and the shottie
But I gotta go identify the body
d___, what happened to the summertime cookouts?
Everytime I turn around a n____ gettin took out
s___, my momma got cancer in her breast
Dont ask me why Im m_________in stressed, things done changed
