Check Yo Self Lyrics

Okay
I heard what he said
But what the fuck did you say?
Okay
I see what I'm dealin' with here
We must be in New Orleans or something, you know?
For everybody in here, especially you (bitch)
That said "Fuck you Ice Cube"
You better check yourself 'fore you wreck yo' self

Yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah
Come on (everybody)
Put your hands in the air like this
Put your hands in the air, come on (everybody)
Put your hands in the air like this (yeah, yeah)
What's up, Cube?

You better check yo' self before you wreck yo' self
'Cause I'm bad for your health, I come real stealth
Dropping bombs on your moms, fuck car alarms
Doing foul crime, I'm that nigga wit' yo' Alpine
Sold it for a six-o, always let tricks know
And friends know we got that indo'
No, I'm not a sucker sitting in a House of Pain
And no, he's not the butler, he'll cut you
Head-butt you, you say you can't touch this
Well, I wouldn't touch ya, punk you a sucka
Here to let you know, boy, oh boy
I make dough but don't call him Dough Boy
This ain't no fucking motion picture
A guy or trick-a, my homie get wit'cha
And hit you taking that yack to the neck
So you better run a check

So come on and chickity-check yo' self before you wreck yo' self
Chickity-check yo' self before you wreck yo' self
Yeah, come on and check yo' self before you wreck yo' self
'Cause shotgun bullets are bad for your health

Somebody say ho (ho)
Say ho, ho (ho, ho)
Say Ice Cube (Ice Cube)
Say Ice Cube (Ice Cube)

Tricks wanna step to Cube and then they get played
'Cause they bitch-made pulling out a switchblade
That's kinda trifle 'cause that's a knife-o
AK-47, we pack rifles
Hold the fifty, I'm nifty, pow
Got a new style (watch out now)
I hate motherfuckers claiming that they folding bank
But steady talking shit in the holding tank
First you wanna step to me
Now your ass screaming for the deputy
They send you to Charlie-Baker-Denver row
Now they running up in you slow
You're gone, used to be the Don Juan
Ay yo Cube, now his name is just 'Twan
Switch it, snap it, rolling your eyes and neck
You better run a check

So chickity-check yo' self before you wreck yo' self
Come on and check yo' self before you wrickity-wreck yo' self
So chickity-check yo' self before you wreck yo' self
'Cause shotgun bullets are bad for your health
