    damn,

    another fuckin' payback with a twist

    The motherfuckers shot

    Ice Cube is outgunned, what

    is the outcome?

    Will they do me like Malcolm?

    Standin' strong,

    while others run a hundred miles

    But I never run, never will

    Deal with the devil with my motherfuckin' steel,

    boom!

    Media tried to do me

    But I was a boy in the hood before the movie,

    yeah

    Call me nigga, bigot, and a spook

    But you the one that voted for Duke,

    motherfucker

    White man is somethin' I tried to study

    But I got my hands bloody, yeah

    They said I could sing like a jaybird

    But nigga, don't say the J-word

    I I thought they was buggin'

    Uncle Sam is Hitler without an oven

    Burnin' our black skin

    Buy my neighborhood,

    then push the crack in

    Doin' us wrong from the first day

    And don't understand why

    a nigga got an AK

    Callin' me an African-American

    Like Like everything is fair again, shit

    Devil, you got to get the shit right

    I'm black, blacker than a

    trillion midnights

    "Don't Believe The Hype" was said in

    gasoline" (huh)
    Verse 4
    Am

    It's a great day for genocide

    If it means that I'm down with O.P.P., yeah!

    I met Farrakhan and had dinner

    Now you ask if I'm a Five Percenter? Well

    No, but I go where the brothers go

    Down with Compton Mosque, Number 54

    Made a little dough,

    still got a sister on my elbow

    Did Ice Cube sell out? You say, "Hell no!"

    A black woman is my manager,

    not in the kitchen

    So could you please stop

    here's my new jingle

    "Stalkin',

    walkin' in my big black boots"

    The KKK has got three-piece suits

    suits

    Usin' niggas like turkey shoots

    My motto is,

    "Treat 'em like a prostitute!"

    Now if I say no violence, devil,

    you won't respect mine

    Fuck the dumb shit and get my

    TEC-9 (yeah)

    try my Death Certificate

    Am

    Daryl Gates got the studio

    that I'm down with

    Motherfucker wanna do us

    'Cause I like Nat, Huey,

    Malcolm, and Louis

    Give a trigger to a nigga and

    watch him pull it

    Negro assassin

    I'ma dig a ditch, bitch,

    and throw yo' ass in

    When they shoot, no,

    it won't be a cracker

    They use somebody much blacker

    What I do? I called up the

    Geto Boy crew

    'Cause my mind's playin' tricks on me,

    too

    Never died, surround my crib

    And FOI makin' sure nobody

    creep when I sleep

    Keep a nine millimeter

    • 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.”
