Amerikkka's Most Wanted Lyrics

Ice Cube with The Lench Mob I got it goin on
A n**** that's livin in the city of the criminal zone
One time can't keep the law in order
'Cause everybody's goin crazy for a quarter

You're tuned in to the number one crew in the area
The way I'm talkin I'm scarin ya
I'm darin ya to raise hell and bail and brag and sag
Or beat down for ya flag

'Cause if you is or you ain't a gangbanger
Keep one in the chamber
'cause you'll get them thangs put on ya son
Ice Cube has got the 4-1-1

All the ol' school house fellows are crooks
So I get jealous looks
They keep thinkin did my hair grow?
Will the boys 'n' the hood have to beat down Ice Cube?

Hell no, I'll static son, you'll see it's okay
I keep my 9 anyway
For the day one of my homies want to squab
I'm still rollin wit The Lench Mob

(AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted)

Back in the day I dip my shirt in dirt
Sometimes I got away clean, sometimes people got hurt
But if you know me, you know that I'm liable
To bust a cap 'cause it's all about survival of the fittest

I'm a menace crook
I did so much dirt I need to be in the Guinness Book
From the s*** I took from people
I reap all your fat s***, jack

Back to the criminals sect
I leave crew after crew but they can't catch me yet
'Cause I'm slick as slippery
They can't get wit me, cops ain't s*** to me

I can't dig a pig so I drop the dogs
And sweat em like sweathogs
And get mad, mad 'cause I'm the n**** that flaunt it
AmeriKKKa's Most Wanted

Ah-yo, here's what the poster read:
'Ice Cube is wanted dead'
That's all it said
I put heads to bed and fled the scene wit all the green

Hear shots and si-reens
When I feet first they yo' rings, now they my rings
So give it up punk and then I just
Put another jack in progress

It's the American way
'Cause I'm the G-A-N-G-S-T-A
Ice Cube - a motherf***in clepto
And tried to catch the early bird but they slept, so

Who gets the worm?
And if I'm caught in a trap
You know I'm a beat the wack
With a payoff, cop gotta lay off

FBI on my dick, stay off!
I'm not a rebel or a renegade on a quest
I'm a n**** with a 'S' on his chest
So get the Kryptonite 'cause I'm a rip tonight
'Cause I'm scarin ya, wanted by America

(Ah-yo Cube man, they on your a**)

Word, but who the f*** has heard?
It's time to take a trip to the suburbs
Let em see a n**** invasion
Point blank for the caucasian

C*** the hammer then crackle, smile
Take me to your house, pal
Got to the house, my pockets got fat, see
Crack the safe, got the money and the jewellry

Three weeks later, I'm at the P-A-D
Had a little fly a** b**** wit me
Sittin' in a dig, yo it couldn't be
(What up G?) Saw my face on TV

Damn (oh s***!) I didn't know I lucked out
Struck out, I gotta get the f*** out
Pack my bags and tried to hit the dough when
The ol' b**** down the street must've turned me in

'Cause the feds was out there ten deep
I got ha**led and gaffled in the back seat
I think back when I was robbin my own kind
The police didn't pay it no mind

But when I start robbin the white folks
Now I'm in the pen wit the soap-on-a-rope
I said it before and I'll still taught it
Every motherf***er with a colour is most wanted
