April 29th, 1992 There was a riot on the streets Tell me where were you? You were sittin' home watchin' your TV While I was participating in some anarchy First spot we hit it was my liquor store I finally got all that alcohol I can't afford With red lights flashin' time to retire And then we turned that liquor store into a structure fire Next stop we hit it was the music shop It only took one brick to make that window drop Finally we got our own P.A. Where do you think I got this guitar that you're hearing today? Because as long as I'm alive, I'ma live illegal When we returned to the pad to unload everything It dawned on me that I need new home furnishings So once again we filled the van until it was full Since that day my livin' room's been more comfortable 'Cause everybody in the hood has had it up to here It's getting harder and harder and harder each and every year I go in the store where their mother and kids And I saw her when she came out she was gettin' some pampers They said it was for the black man They said it was for the mexican, but not for the white man But if you look at the streets, it wasn't about Rodney King It's bout this fucked up situation and these fucked up police It's about coming up and staying on top And screamin' 187 on a mother fuckin' cop It's ain't in the paper, it's on the wall So national guard, smoke from all around! Homicide, never doing no time Give me my share, my share Gimme my share, I want it Gimme my share, I need it now, I need it now My share, a wicked one who doesn't wanna see me go Just gimme my share, I want it, gimme my share But you don't want to give it to me You don't wanna see me go Gimme my share, I want it, gimme my share But there is a wicked one
