'...
September '77
Port Elizabeth weather fine,
It was business as usual
in police room 619
Oh Biko, Biko, because Biko

Dr Dre - The Watcher
[Dr. Dre]
Things just ain't the same for gangstas,
Times is changing, young niggas is ageing,
Becoming OG's and the game it changing,
To make way for all these new names and faces, but
The strangest things can happen for rappin, when
Niggas get wrapped up in image and actin',
Niggas get capped-up and wrapped in plastic,
Zipped-up in bags, when it happens, that's it.
I've seen 'em come, I've watched 'em go,
Watched em rise, witnessed it and watched 'em blow.
Watched 'em all blossom, and watched 'em grow,
Watched the lawsuits when they lost the dough,
Best friends and money: I lost them both,
Went and visited niggas in the hospital.
It's all the same shit all across the globe.
I just sit back and watch the show. (The watcher)
Chorus:
Everywhere that I go
Ain't the same as before (The watcher)
People I used to know
Just don't know me no more
But everywhere that I go
I got people I know (The watcher)
Who got people they know
So I suggest you lay low (I watch)
[Dr. Dre]
I moved out of the 'hood for good, you blame me?
Niggas aim manly at niggas they can't be.
But niggas can't hit niggas they can't see.
I'm out of sight now, I'm out of they damn reach,
How would you feel if niggas wanted you killed?
You'd probably move to a new house on that new hill.
And choose a new spot if niggas wanted you shot,
I ain't a thug, how much Tupac in you, you got
I ain't no b**ch neither.
It's either my life or your life,
And I ain't leaving, I like breathing,
Nigga we can go round for round,
Clip for clip, shit, fo'-pound for pound.
Nigga if you really want to take it there we can,
Just remember that you fu**in with a family man.
I got a lot more to lose than you, remember that,
When you wanna come and fill these shoes. (The watcher)
Chorus
[Dr. Dre]
Things just ain't the same for gangstas,
Cops just as anxious to put niggas in handcuffs.
They wanna hang us, see us dead or enslave us,
Keep us trapped in the same place they raised us.
Then they wonder why we act so outrageous,
Run around stressed-out and pull out gauges.
Cause everytime you let the animal outta cages,
It's dangerous to people who look like strangers.
But now we got a new era of gangstas,
Hustlers and youngsters livin' amongst us.
Lookin at us now, callin' us busters,
Can't help but reminisce back when it was us.
Nigga we started this gangsta shit.
And this the motherfu**in thanks I get?
It's funny how time fly,
I'm just havin fun, just watchin it fly by. (The watcher)
