If It Ain't Ruff - 2002 Digital Remaster;

Ren is the villain and you're just a hostage
So whenever I'm steppin', cover your head like an ostrich
Groupies been waitin' for this, suckers been hatin' for this
You know why? 'Cause so many are relatin' to this
Jealous is how they feelin' intentionally
But then start to love it because I made it eventually
Pumpin' the music, I keep the music like pumpin'
'Cause Ren ain't in it for nothin', I keep the average crowd jumpin'

Yo, you know the color, the villain's in black
Always down to make noise and attack
So you better get back unless you wanna come with it
And make your face like a target and close your eyes when I hit it
You're screamin' with fear but it's with fear that you're screamin'
You're wakin up in a sweat 'cause Ren is givin' bad dreams and
I'm not scheming, I'm just tellin' the facts
That's how it is when N.W.A. starts to jack

So brothers that wanna scrap with me
That sweezin' and sneezin' will have to lap with me
Especially begging to write some lyrics with me
I just snatch your girl to take a nap with me
'Cause when it comes to Ren there's no comparison
And if you try to be me, it's quite embarassing
But I understand 'cause you're mentally slow
'Cause I can tell from the jump you're too nervous to go

If it aint' ruff it ain't me
Gangsta's black and he's about to attack
If it ain't ruff it ain't me
Lemme bust a freestyle there
(All right bet)

I can tell that you're afraid to fight me
Simple because you lost the crowd and they had to invite me
Because you're sweat as a puddle but there the puddles of sweat
I'm a threat, so get a cold rag and wipe your neck
And clean the dirt off your face that cause acne
It's ridiculous thinking that you can jack me
This is the round where the punch will go
Into your H-E-A-D, that's known as a blow

I'm makin' a point but it's a point that I'm makin'
Like, see, I'm hatin' the fakin' I keep the suckers like shaking
Scared to speak with a thought when they're chosen
The sound of my voice in their ear and they're frozen
This is a battle to the death, it's like the same old
Against a brother on a tip, with a Kangol
Givin 'em pain but it's with pain that I'm givin'
But I'm comparing and tearing 'em but I'm makin a living

With the hype of a nine volt battery
And the odds for me to conquer is averagely good
Meanin' I'ma flow
I'm from the streets so, yo, I'm ready to go

If it aint' ruff it ain't me (yo, Ren)
Gangsta's black and he's about to attack
If it ain't ruff it ain't me
Man, what you gon' do now? (Get funky)

The do not disturb sign is in effect
While I'm thinking of a fool to select
To give the victim a verdict so for the verdict a victim
Slammin' my vocals on a dance with the rest then I kick them
Tell 'em they're guilty and peep out the bailiff
And get a new track of drums so I can play with
Percussion, pumpin' it loud when I perform
Yo, you wanna play in my game? Put on a uniform

It ain't a rule in the book you have to go by
Hey, 'cause when it comes to cheatin', yo, you should know I
Put fear in their hearts 'cause it's their hearts full of fear
'Cause what you hear in your ear is something funky and clear
The Hulk was incredible, yo, but Ren he was super
But now I'm ruthless, a civilian and not a trooper
But a soldier with a top ranking
Givin' dope material, the hell with the gankin'

So play like an airplane and just jet
And keep your blood pressure low 'cause I'm a threat
'Cause if not I'm afraid of the show
That you're a sucker and you're too nervous to go

If it aint' ruff it ain't me (yo, Ren)
Gangsta's black and he's about to attack
If it ain't ruff it ain't me (yo, Ren)
Gangsta's black
If it aint' ruff it ain't me
Gangsta's black and he's about to attack
If it ain't ruff it ain't me (yo, Ren)
Gangsta's black

If it aint' ruff it ain't me
Gangsta's black and he's about to attack
If it ain't ruff it ain't me (yo, Ren)
Gangsta's black
'Cause if it aint' ruff it ain't me
