Verse 1
Em

Aight

Now everybody wants to know the

truth about a brother named Quik

I come from a school of the sly,

wicked and the slick

A lot of people already know

exactly where it's at

'Cause it's the home of the jackers

and the crack

(Compton) Yeah,

that's the name of the hometown
G
Em

I'm throwing down in the town where

my name is all around

The suckers just be having a fit,

and that's a pity

But I ain't doing nothing but

(claiming my city)

See, my lyrics I'm doubling up and proving

to suckers that I can throw 'em

I'm passing a natural ten or four

or six or eight before I go

Yes, I'm definitely freestyling, all

the while still profiling

Never a trickster,

DJ Quikster steals the show

So now that's how I'm living,

I do as I please, you see

A younger brother that's

up on reality

'Cause everybody knows

you have to be stomping
G

If you're born and raised
Em

in Compton
Verse 2

Compton)

(Compton)
Verse 3
Em

Now Compton is the place where

the homeboys chill, you see
G

But then I found that it wasn't
Em

no place for me

'Cause way back in the day somebody

musta wanted me to quit
G

Because they broke in my house
Em

and cold stole my shit

They musta thought that I was

gonna play the punk role

Just because my equipment got stole

But I ain't going out like

no sucker- ass clown

They found they couldn't

keep a dope nigga down
G

So here's some bass in your face,

motherfucker silly sucker-

Ass clocker, now you're ducking,

'cause you can't stop a brother
Em

Like the Quiksta, because

I'm true to the game

You're lame, and things ain't

gon' never be the same

'Cause a nigga like the Quik is taking over

I really don't think I should

have to explain it

Oh yeah, I'm a dog,

but my name ain't Rover

And I'm the kinda nigga that's

feeling no pain

Sometimes I have to wear

a bulletproof vest

Because I got the CPT sign

written across my chest

A funky dope brother never

ceases to impress

My name is DJ Quik, so

you can fuck the rest

I'm coming like this,

and I'm coming directly

'Cause suckers get dain- bramaged if I'm

doing damage quite effectively

Rhyming is a battle zone,

and suckers have no win
G

'Cause I'm a veteran from
Em

the C- O- M- P- T- O- N
Verse 4

Kick it
Em

(Born and raised)
Verse 5
Em

Hell motherfucking yeah

Funky dope for the nine- ace

DJ Quik is in the motherfucking house
Verse 6

Yeah

Em

G

Em

We got AMG most definitely

in the house

What's up Greedy Greg and Big Baby

Brian cold chillin'

Talking about the Armstrong Pack

Straight got my motherfucking back

To my buddy NOE, what's up, fool?

Roche is in the house

My buddy Donzelle

You know what's

happening, fool

What's up, Inch?

And Tony Lane is chillin'

To my nigga Gangsta Wayne

And my engineer Joe getting

busy on the floor

And last but not least, I'd like

to thank Shabby Blue

And we out

Peace

  • Best Tuning App Ever

    MaddProfessor

    I've downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

  • Well-Designed App

    Rose the Black Cat

    I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

  • Got me back into playing

    Tuliketsune

    I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

  • Secret weapon

    Brad

    Not only is it a tuner (best app tuner I've used personally) but it also has a metronome, games, chords, and a plethora of instruments to choose from and it's SUPER easy to navigate. I love it! Thanks for making an awesome app. From one musician to another, THANKS!!!

  • Very reliable tuner

    theNewPaul

    This is a great app! Very easy to use and very reliable, if you are just starting out, you can take a big worry off your mind, by getting in tune quickly and easily with this app. Highly recommended!

  • This is the best guitar tuner ever.

    Caleb Schafli

    It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.

  • Great to tune and play

    Lynae T

    I love how easy it is to tune and find and play my favorite songs.
