[W.C.:]. man I aint gon be shit in the morning after drinking that uh ... [Ice Cube:]. ...if I can sell you the american dream I can sell you anything. [Verse 1:]. I got to get out I'm getting put out of my house. I got to pack up my refrigerator and couch. it's a set up but the bank wants me out. or the L.A.P.D. will smoke me out. this suggestible weight it choke me out. they gave me a loan and I had no clout. they gave me a house for me and my spouse. call my momma and my aunt. y'all should re-finance. I let them dance with the devil. dig their own grave and I gave them the shovel. fuck my daddy built that house. and when he got drunk he almost killed that house. is this the american dream or the american scheme?. that got me walking in these american streets?. its kinda sad when you have to get a hernia. cuz you help your grand mama move her furniture. if I can sell you the american dream I can sell you anything. look at this maggot with a stimulus package. I can give a fuck about a dow jones average. what the fuck you do when your paycheck is average?. law abiding citizen turn into a savage. got to feed the children got to feed the habit. fell into a rabbit hole chasing that rabbit. now I'm in wonderland feeling like the Son of Sam. I'm at your west coast branch gun in hand. Imma feel like superman. walk by the teller better call the trooper man. it?s the revenge of the lambs:. "big bad wolf we're sick of these scams". sick of these plans sick of this dance. walk into his office took the nin out my pants. you're not a man you're a servant. then I pray to God nigga nine get to workin?. [Chorus:]. I never get the working. you know I heard they hood robbin? your money or your life and there ain?t no stopping. I never get the working. you know I heard they hood robbin? your money or your life and there ain?t no stopping. Ain't that a bitch. when you got to steal from the poor and give to the rich. Ain't that a bitch. when you got to steal from the poor and give to the rich. [Verse 2:]. uh drug dealer envy. doctor feel good give you what you need. in California prescribe that plead. Oxy cotton and codiene. turn your grand mama into a fiend. and see the sign [?]. I know you bout to die but let me see your ID. I know you bout to lie but can you pay this fee?. if you can't pay then please have a seat. you can't see a doctor but you could see a priest. we can't save your life until we get some insurance. your premium is paid add that insurance. I hope you got endurance. they got me on hold and I?m under the influence. nurse high as a kite. in charge with my life. and everything is lost. without a blue cross. [Chorus:]. you know I haerd they hood robbin' your money or your life and there ain't no stopping. you know I heard they hood robbin' your money or your life and there ain't no stopping. Ain't that a bitch. when you got to steal from the poor and give to the rich. Ain't that a bitch. when you got to steal from the poor and give to the rich
