[ VERSE 1 ]Now.. I come from the Oakland townTask force roll and rock, cold cracked downYoung brothers my age making dollars so longDrive a brand new Benz with a cellular phoneSee him draped in gold, we call him Big Bank BobGot a ring for each finger and he can't get a jobCall him trash, he supplies for the dopefiend's tweakBut what you make in a year he might make in a weekCold cash money is the answer to lifeFeedin fat hovers to a dopefiend's pipeGotta keep rollin, just can't stopOnly two worries are a thief or the copsPeople keep sayin: it's all so wrongBut the rocks roll strong all night longAnother Park Street life, the age old storyAnd now the coke dealers take all the gloryThey're the ones you meet big time on the streetI say the coke dealers are now the eliteSee, the average dopehouse will take your soulTrade it for a rock and do the same with your goldBut if you think about it really it all sounds sillySmoked out Willie in his washed off PhillyOpen up shop down the blockAnd everybody's tryin to get a piece of that rockCoke dealersBig time, babySmokinCoke[ VERSE 2 ]Cocaine the demon, it knows you wellSellin you a trip to a place called hellYou never even thought you'd get hookedStarin in the mirror, scared to lookYou think about life and think it's coldLike drivin with a ???? down a rocky roadNow the rock man is your best friendThe only one you talk to time and againYou even tried dealin, but that's no funBefore you made a sale it was in your lungsSo the coke dealer now lives on your lifeLike a four year marriage you're the man's wifeYou can hate it with a passion, but you won't fussHe's the driver of a Caddy and you're ridin the busYou think it's not fair, I tell you it isCause he bought yours and you bought hisBought his cars, his clothes, and he bought the cokeNow he looks good and you look smokedIt doesn't take much to realizeAll you gotta do is just open your eyesYou're cold bein pimped by a rock in some glassWhat's it gonna take before you fall on your ass?Bankrupt, smoked out, just simply throughCold street walkin with a hole in your shoeCoke dealersBig time, babySmokinCokeland[ VERSE 3 ]I once had a homeboy rollin strongSold coke all day and all night longHe made a lotta money and bought a lotta stuffBut soon he went broke and it didn't take muchFirst he started smokin, and all that he figuredWas the more he sold dope, you see his bank got biggerBut my homie thought wrong cause he could be stoppedThe vice squad rolled and the boy got poppedHe was out on bail before he made it to jailWasn't about to do time when he's doin so wellSay he had a lotta money and some real good friendsBut he was almost broke when he flipped againSo he got on his grind, he wasn't wastin a dayOpened up shop and started pumpin the weightHe thought about the boys that he could not paySo he hustled by himself thinkin that's okayBut one night he was chillin with a freak named CarolHis door was kicked in and he was starin at a barrelThe brother with the gun saw him tweak on the baseWalked right up and put the Uzi in his faceHe said, Give up the dope if you still wanna breatheI tell you one time, you better listen to meAs my homie got robbed he lost the fightAnd now he's just a smoker probably totin tonightCoke dealersYeah, I'm big time, babySmokinCOKE!Coke dealersBig time, babyCoke dealersBig time, babySmokinThe City of DopeCokelandSmokinIt don't stop
