One In the Chamba (1996) lyrics
by M.O.P.
[Intro]
FREEZE!
You, you, and you, up against the wall
[Benzino/Ray Dog]
Yo, sh*t, it's wild out here, dog
Ain't nothin' changed
As far as I'm concerned
It's them against us, y'know?
[?] beat me all the f*ck up
Man, I'm tired of that sh*t
Yo, f*ck that, ma- ayo, Rhome, man, tell 'em what the f*ck is up
[Verse 1: Almighty R.S.O.]
[Tony Rhome]
sh*t ain't never gonna change
'Til more cops get blasted
How many n*ggas gotta get they ass kicked?
How many n*ggas gotta die inside a cell again?
Before we revolute, shoot, and raise Hell again?
This ain't no racial sh*t, 'cause both black and white cops
Are b*tch, and down to let you go when you snitch
So f*ck a snitch and the cop [?]
Kiss my hollow point, I split ya, then fake 'em up
[Benzino/Ray Dogg]
Pull over, get out, license and ya registration
Next thing you know, you're cuffed up and down at the station
I'm gettin' fed up with this everyday bullsh*t
I swear on God, these motherf*ckers gonna make me flip
It's bad enough they from the same hood
The same school, got a badge, now they act like a f*ckin' fool
Put one up in the chamba (Once!) Slide one up in the chamba (TWICE!)
The third time represents three for the strike!
[E-Devious]
Now, why you cops on my D and
Harassin' my whole C-lique
It's all poli-T-ics
That's why we got the G-lock
Pon C-op, for the war, heatin' on the B-lock
Got the extended C-lip, with the rubber G-rip
If you ever wanna T-rip
You know who I be with
Whoever try to endanger
Feel this hot one in the chamba!
[Scratched hook x4]
One in the chamba!
[Verse 2: M.O.P.]
[M.O.P.]
It's the man!
[Lil' Fame]
That's always talkin' and breaks the peace
[M.O.P.]
It's the man!
[Lil' Fame]
Y'all think you wanna decease the beast
'Cause separate race must be the basis
And get they wig pushed back, the body should be found in different places
[Billy Danze]
I know, and every time they harass me
I sense if I flinch, they gon' f*ck around and blast me
That's the impression that they gave us
So I feel like gettin' ill with steel, like Mr. Larry Davis
[M.O.P.]
Here we are!
[Lil' Fame]
Posted up with the felons
Livin' the most, with killers and neighborhood drug sellers
It's just a ghetto thing, for me to get strapped
With 21 hard rounds and let this heavy metal swing
[Billy Danze, (M.O.P.)]
Gun blazin' (FOR WHAT!?)
He was f*ckin with me first
Worst came to worst, so I opened him up
In the (ILL SIDE OF TOWN!), [?] ground is dangerous
(M.O.P. TO THE DEATH, KID!) yeah, with one up in the chamba!
[Hook x4]
[Interlude: Smif-N-Wessun/Cocoa Brovaz]
[Tek]
[?] hold me down, [?]
[Steele]
I got you, kid
[Tek]
Drinkin' the [?], and mixed with the [?]
Got me more p*ssed about it than a motherf*cker
[Steele]
Yeah, I see the po-po creepin'
No doubt, no doubt
[Tek]
[?] mind watch one time, man
[Verse 3: Smif-N-Wessun/Cocoa Brovaz]
[Steele, (Tek), *Both*]
Ayo, Tek, which one of these suspicious characters you know?
(Neither)
Me neither, so keep the heater low 'cause I know you see the
*P-I-G, eyes grillin' me*
[Tek]
Thinkin' I had no idea he was a D
[Steele]
'Cause he young up in the face, talkin' [?] and rockin' [?]
[Tek]
Sport a insulated vest and let his jewels shine halfway
[Steele]
He got a partner by the name of Dirty Harry
Whose twin brother Larry shoplift everything he could carry
[Tek]
Remember Dirty Harry got a partner by the name of Kirk
Kirk is a captain at [?]'s undercover work
[Steele]
Think we moonlightin'
[Tek]
High stakes type gamblin'
[Steele]
Movin' OZ's for G's is his way of panhandlin'
[Tek]
He harassed us, robbed us, and papi of the [?]
[Steele]
Watch us
[Tek]
[?] us
[Steele]
And put fake charges 'pon us
[Tek]
The homicide cruisin' by in the [?] 5
[Steele]
Seein' fingers in the back, pointin' fingers as they drive by
[Tek]
Crime preventers, supposedly [?]
Pain, they send us upstate and give us different sentence
[Steele]
As they contemplate, I drove the blueprints to movements
Stand with my P.N.C. and get ready for the revolution
[Hook x4]
[Beat until fade]
[Outro]
That's what 'One In The Chamba' really is
Be on guard, be prepared
Just another sayin'
[Benzino/Ray Dog]
It just means that you gotta be aware
And that there's police brutality out there
