Ice Cube - 24 Wit an L Lyrics

24 with a L

24 years old

And I got life in this motherfucker

24 with a L as I bail through the concrete

Shit is kinda deep, deep

Deeper than Atlantis

You got to know who the man is

L.A. better known as Pelican's Bay

The ghetto bird's got the word from the stool pigeon

A bird in the hand can't beat a chicken

There ain't no warden, shit

Just broken glass fuckin' up my Jordans

Twice upon a time in the projects

I done got jacked for my Rolex

But I keep goin', let it pass

'Cause the swap meet got a sale on ski masks

And my little homie Kevin

Been carjackin' since '87

L.A. is like a jail cell and I got 24 with a L

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

24 with a L

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Now, I made a little money, good

But I still want to live in the hood

But buying new fly shit

Is just like inviting ants to a picnic

It's just too many sets

And now I'm getting those kidnap threats

But who wanna get wet?

'Cause I'll soak ya, you think I'm fat like Oprah

All I got is a little piece of nothing

And now you wanna jack all of a sudden

Rather have me face down on the floor

Instead of that devil you work for

Motherfuckin' coward

And clowning my man 'cause he wants to go to Harvard

Now I got a strap when I bail

Through the hood, 24 with a L

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

24 with a L

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

24 years, but see I got life

Sorry Mike, it does matter if you're black or white

'Cause I'm up against the black and white

They spread my legs and grab my nuts tight

Niggas keep hitting me up

And bitches try to get a drop of nut

Askin' me to dick this so they can blow up

Throw up from the morning sickness

Keep my shoulder on the wall like the county

'Cause you buster ass niggas can't clown me

South of pee go, that's where we go

Deep in a Regal, Desert Eagle

Sittin' on my lap like a bitch with a gat

Westside's on the map

So if you want to scrap or even drop shells

It don't matter, 24 with a L

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

24 with a L

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

24 with a L

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger

Get in that cell, nigger
