Intro : -Snoop Dogg-
Geah, first of all
Givin honor to God, and all the ministers on the pulpits
Ushers, deacons, and my lovely choir
They sound so beautiful, don’t you agree ?
Sing it sister..
Yeah, we’d like to welcome y’all inside this R&G
Rhythm & Gangsta : The Masterpiece
Such a, heavenly experience
Alchemist, break it down for me nephew
Let me preach to ’em one time, chuuch

-Snoop Dogg-
In the beginning as a child I was chosen
Though not knowin the reason while still my eyes opened
Whatever the purpose, I surfaced above the fog
Love was given to all, outside livin the ball
As an adolescent, one black child, I had a message
to reach teachin the masses, I wrote my first passage
It was jotted down, created in the form of a rap
I’m young, livin in the city of jackers and gangbangin
and dope dealin, cold feelin to be a product of niggaz around you
Once you get on top they down you
But the temptation got me, streets caught me watchin
I found myself grindin on the streets quite often
With a blue rag, bangin the dub, fo’-fifth coffin
At the spot, 61st, 40 blocks from the Eastside
Where most of the big homies had a glock and flossed the G-ride
Niggaz throwin up hands but it wasn’t no peace signs
Never fo’ a second did I think to let my light shine
Hardheaded, thought I was grown, messin up
Disrespectin my home, not carin ’bout what moms what sayin
And then I found out that mom wasn’t playin
Today, I love you for it, back then, I couldn’t understand
Get my life right, step it up, nigga be a man
Never be a victim, of what the system might hit you with
Through the stripes still gotta shine my light
I’ve grown, to comprehend the game ; my name is Big Snoop Boss Dogg
Just a block and a phone call away
I’ve reached the status, of a modern day John Baptist
I’m preachin just what I practice
To each and all, I got a word from the Beach to acros the globe
Man woman young and old
Don’t gain the world, lose your soul to spite
Many circumstances Doggy gon’ shine my light cause I love you

-singers-
I love, to give you light

Outro : -Minister-
And the people that is locked up, locked down
And the people that’s locked dowwwwwn
Also God, should purchase the new, Escalade
On 24’s, with the spinnin thangs, ha ha
I need you to, right now, look at your neighbors
Cause a lot of y’all think y’all goin to heaven huh
And you ain’t gon’ go !
So I need you right now to, look at your neighbor
and say neighbor, say NEIGH-BOR, YOU AIN’T GOIN !!
YOU AIN’T GOIN !!
