Straight Up Nigga Lyrics - O.g. Original Gangster - Ice T

Yo check this out 

A lot of people get mad cause I use the word nigga 

You know what I'm saying they don't like the fact that I use the word nigga 

They say you a black man I tell em I'm a nigga they don't understand that 

So I'm a say what I want to say I call myself what I want to call myself 

You know what I'm saying 

So they can stay off my dick 

Damn right I'm a nigga 

and I don't care what you are 

Cause I'm a Capital N-I double-G-E-are 

Black people might get mad 

Cause they don't see 

That they're looked upon 

As a nigga just like me 

I'm a nigga, not a Coloured man 

Or a Black, or a Negro 

Or Afro American, I'm all that 

Yes I was born in America true 

Does South Central 

Look like America to you? 

I'm a nigga, a straight up nigga 

From a hard school 

Whatever you are 

I don't care, that is you fool 

I'm loud and proud 

Well endowed with the big beef 

Out on the corner 

I hang out like a horse thief 

So you can call me dumb or crazy 

Ignorant, stupid, inferior or lazy 

Silly or foolish 

But I'm badder and bigger 

And most of all 

I'm a straight up nigga 

That's right I'm a nigga 

my man lord finesse is my motherfucking nigga 

you know evil e's my nigga islam's my nigga 

that's right they're my niggas 

I'm a nigga in America 

and that much I flaunt 

Cause when I see what I like 

Yo I take what I want 

I'm not the only one 

That's why I'm not bitter 

Cause everybody is a nigga to a nigga! 

America was stole from he Indians 

show and prove, what was that? 

A straight up nigga move 

A low down shame 

Yo it's straight insane 

Yet they complain 

When a nigga snatch 

Their gold chains 

What is nigga suppose to do? 

Wait around for a handout 

From a nigga like you? 

That's why a low down nigga gets hyped 

But I'm not a nigga of that type 

I'm a steak and lobster eatin 

Billionaire meetin 

Cash money makin, movin shakin 

Corporate jet glidin 

Limousine ridin 

Writin' hits, filthy rich 

Straight up nigga! 

That's right I'm a nigga 

Now I'm a write this song 

Though the radio won't play it 

But I got freedom of speech 

So I'm a say it 

She want to be lez he want to be gay 

But that's your business I'm straight 

So nigga have it your way 

Those who hate me I got sumthin for ya 

A nigga with cash a nigga with a lawyer 

Bot a watermelon eating @#%$ down south 

But a nigga that 'll smack the taste from your mouth 

A contemplating thinking best champagne drinkin 

Ten inch givin extra large livin 

Mercedes benz drivin strivin to survivin 

All the way livin and kickin hi fivin 

Strokin rap and happenin deal doing 

Fly in from cali to chill with the crewin 

Rhymin groovin fly girlie grabbin 

Horny gun shootin long hair havin 

nigga 

Straight up nigga 

nigga 

Straight up nigga 

nigga 

nigga that's right fool look at me 

Just the kinda nigga you'd like to hang from a tree 

But all you KKK type grave diggers 

Ease back fool cause I'm a trigger nigga 

I work real hard for my livin 

But I don't sell or brake bullshit thanksgivin 

Like some fool and eat turkey 

That's the day your forefathers jerked me 

Shipped us all over here in locks and chains 

Split us up twistin up a nigga's brain 

Now you keep me in constant sweat 

But I'm a nigga that you'll never forget 

A black bad iron clad always mad 

Fly nigga takin off from a helipad 

Rolex divin buck wilin cap pilin 

Sportin link chinks and medallions 

Incollectible hi tek cash and seven digit checks 

And still breakin necks 

The ultimate male supreme white woman's dream 

Big dick straight up nigga
