Give You Love

Say man ay ushers, deacons, lock the do'

(I love, to give you light)

Yeah, 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

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 niggas 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

Niggas 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

And the people that is locked up, locked down

And the people that's locked down

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 neighbor! You ain't going!

You ain't going!
