Lil’ Knucklehead Lyrics by South Central Cartel

’N Gatz We Truss

1994

[Prodeje]
Yeah, South Central's back in this muthafucka for the big Nine-Three
Dedicatin' this to all you little young niggas
[VERSE 1: Prodeje]
Used to be my little homie from the hood when I came up
Chillin with the G's, slinging ki's, tryna clock bucks
Be a role-model when the locs wear the nine strapped
Didn't even think about the fact you were bum-rapped
Livin' in the S-C, 12 tryna figure it out
Should I go to school, learn the rules, or should I drop out?
Maybe I was blind, in a way I was ignorant
Little knucklehead from my hood was still innocent
Coulda said, "Loc, what I'm doin' ain't the way for you
You should go to school, get a job and you'll make it through"
But I didn't do it, I was flippin' tryna be the one
Rollin' in a 6-4 plushed on them things with bumps
Used to kick you down everyday, 'cause I had it, loc
Let you hit the bud now and then, it was like a joke
You were goin' down, then your mother tried to talk to me
But I was playin' dumb and said "I didn't even know you, G"
6 months later after doin' 2 in county blues
Saw you at the park, khaki'd down, hanging with the fools
Smokin' E.T., talkin' about some drive-by
Lil' knucklehead from my hood on a hoo-ride
[Chorus]
A little knucklehead nigga
Just a knucklehead nigga from my hood, loc [x4]
Yeah, a little nigga from my hood
Little niggas
Slow your roll, soldiers
Yeah, from my hood
Word up
[VERSE 2: Prodeje]
Now you're from the hood and you're running with the baby locs
Claimin' rap-mob, slingin' dope, and you're never broke
Got your own 9, and it's smokin' every single night
Now I got the word from the streets, and it's nighty-night
Lil' knucklehead from my hood on the downslide
Tryna be the one, my nigga tryna make it up high
Coulda told him this is nothing, coulda said him straight then
Now he's tryin to bang, and somebody's gonna smoke him
6 months later 13, and a menace now
Got a little juice as we chill with the pot crowd
Gettin' fucked up off the E.T. and St. Ides
Tellin' me that I'm the nigga that he used to idolize
Now you're like me, little nigga
Better keep your finger on the trigger
Or it's 6 feet, little nigga
'Cause on the slab it's a trip, and if you slip, you're a sleeper
But I'ma be my little brother's keeper
Put him in the spot, let him clock notch
Tryna keep him safe from the 9's and the 12-gauge buckshots
But one day my nigga tripped
I caught him with a pipe in his mouth, and I flipped
Knucklehead nigga goin' down in the hood, and it's bad for my business
So I had to just dismiss
Now he's back on the block
2 months later little loc got shot
2 in the dome by a fool that he jacked for a muthafuckin' quarter
I guess times got harder
[Chorus]
My little knucklehead nigga
Just a knucklehead nigga from my hood, loc [x7]
What's up with all that shit, nigga?
Slow your roll
Yeah, yeah, yeah
From my hood
My little niggas from the hood
Yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah
My little knucklehead nigga
Yeah
