Every man determined his definition of realness
What`s real to him
Everybody got their own definition of gangsta man
Okay, this is my definition of gangsta

Surprise motherf**kers
You thought I never would arise motherf**kers
It`s Obie Trice motherf**kers
Look in the eyes of a real guy
I ain`t got time for lies
Ni**az frontin` like they lyin`
Ni**a ya not tough decease the bluff
These streets is too heated up for you to front
Dre laced the beat
Heated up for you to bump
Real name no gimmicks give my ni**az what they want

F**k the image of the blunt
That ain`t rap dog
Be who you wanna be but let it be fat dog
We`ll never let a ni**a tell you how you should act dog
Specially when you`re f**kin` wit automatic gats dog
These ni**az ain`t playin` I`m sayin` I`m sprayin`
I do my dirty work wit my hands I`m a man
Layin` a ni**a down he advance
You f**kin` wit my plans
I`m lookin` for the tooth

Look in my eyes
Sayin` there`s a love I can hate
`Cuz it`s a thin line
Walk around wit my chest out
Like I got 9 lives
Never will get to your strap
Before I find mine
Wonder what the future is like
Look in my eyes

Look in my eyes
Real Gs anticipate
They got to have mine
All the hos shoppin` me out
Say it`s all about time
Ni**as never open they mouth
`Cuz they know my kind
Find it hard to figure me out
Look in my eyes
Look in my eyes

Now when Obie`s up to bat
They asked Obie
How you cope wit dat?
Cope esthetically man
I Kobe Bryant rap
I`m so defiant that
The lungs uninviting my rhyme
I swear I`m outta my mind sometimes

Out on the grind my kind
Nickel and dime ni**az we ain`t rich yet
We on the corner wit a 40 and a biscuit
Ready for bitch s**t
Have you drinkin`
We ain`t got good sense
My hood so tense ni**az so dense

I see through the life you invent
Slow up on how you ni**az vent
You ni**az ain`t representin` s**t
I represent school crowd killas
Detroit ni**a my ni**a what
The realest exploit ni**az
My ni**a what

What`s the point in avoidin` your feelin`s
You ni**az fillas you drillas
You a lyrics motherf**kers
Real life experiences
Eminem gave the clearance
So I here to show you ni**az brilliance build it
Shady marine no civilian
O Trice you f**kin` wit a real one

Look in my eyes
Sayin` there`s a love I can hate
`Cuz it`s a thin line
Walk around wit my chest out
Like I got 9 lives
Never will get to your strap
Before I find mine
Wonder what the future is like
Look in my eyes

Look in my eyes
Real Gs anticipate
They got to have mine
All the hos shoppin` me out
Say it`s all about time
Ni**az never open they mouth
`Cuz they know my kind
Find it hard to figure me out
Look in my eyes
Look in my eyes

This is what the streets done to me
Hungary gun on me
Hopes high only keep change up community
Give it up in unity
Raise future mes
You look in my eyes that`s the dream Obie see
Man it seems
It`s as easy as the rhyme Obie brings

But my eye shows things intervene
All or in between
It`s like losin` my team
Losin` my freedom, losin` my mind, and the being
The being I`m a being
Graduated from rights of beings to a beance
Congratulated on life`s irenes on your biatch
I done came to far to go backwards
My aim to extreme for y`all

Look in my eyes
Sayin` there`s a love I can hate
`Cuz it`s a thin line
Walk around wit my chest out
Like I got 9 lives
Never will get to your strap
Before I find mine
Wonder what the future is like
Look in my eyes

Look in my eyes
Real Gs anticipate
They got to have mine
All the hos shoppin` me out
Say it`s all about time
Ni**az never open they mouth
`Cuz they know my kind
Find it hard to figure me out
Look in my eyes
Look in my eyes

Look in my eyes man
It ain`t s**t but real talk over here ni**a
I would never send you elsewhere
I got hair on my nuts ni**a
Grown man s**t
That`s how a ni**a get into clubs ni**a
When I ain`t got no ID
Flash my nuts on they ass
They walk me right in ni**a
Obie Trice
