Ballad of a Menace

Lyrics

[Intro: MC Ren] Kick that beat in, Ren Aww yeah We gon' get busy one time for the motherfuckin' bitches out there in Compton To this slow, slow, slow-ass beat We got my man Chip in the house My man Young D, my man Donovan And I am the incredible MC Ren and my man Lil Nation's gonna do it somethin' like this [Verse 1: Lil' Nation] This is the ballad of a menace Not to be confused with that of a grimace I'm in this to be number one when I step upon and walk the streets Stalk the meat like that of a predator Blow the brains out the head of my competitors I'm a product of your sins, though you say I never heard of ya A killer, a dope dealer, gangster murderer Merciless maniac, monical manipulation Primary focus of your local police station I roll cold in my 'Llac, bumpin' sounds that I ganked doin' a jack move As I groove the gangsta melody Passin' crack to a nine-year-old And I've been told pimpin' hoes is a felony But I'm not a doctor or lawyer, I wasn't made to be Ever Luciferic because I get paid to be There ain't no rehabilitatin' me, pull a gat on your grandmother Then take her social security The boundary lines of my jurisdiction expand from day to day Ruler of all I survey And with that, load up my gat then I pack So I can buzz on the suckers that you replenish This is the ballad of a menace [Chorus: Ice Cube] I'm a menace- I'm a m-m-menace- I'm a m- I'm a m- I'm a menace to society I'm a mena- I'm a menace to society [Bridge] "It looks like you're going to be in the record business" "Don't you think that's a pretty good idea?" "Oh, yeah!" [Verse 2: MC Ren] This is a ballad of a menace, Ren will finish and diminish All the suckers that thought they could flow like me that was in this Society wishes for my death or my downfall, but they playin' theyself as if they playin' some roundball 'Cause I'm terrorizin', the territory I'm steppin' on Endangerin' citizens while I'm keepin' my weapon on I hit like a psycho, 'cause to me it was fittable I just got word, the Ruthless Villain was critical Let's get it straight, the ones that want some can come with that Illiterate motherfuckers, I make you look dumb with that Stumble and fumble 'cause I'ma crush 'til you crumble So you can stutter and stutter, but keep it down to a mumble MC Ren is never taken as the sucker In other words, I'm a bad motherfucker So next time I walk your streets you should know To lock your doors and close your windows And if you was thinkin' that protection could stop me It takes a continent full of niggas to drop me And for me to be vicious, yo, it's valid While I'm conductin' and producin' a ballad of a motherfuckin' menace [Chorus: Ice Cube] I'm a menace- I'm a m-m-menace- I'm a m- I'm a m- I'm a m- I'm a menace to society I'm a mena- I'm a m-m-m-menace I'm a m- I'm a m- I'm a menace to society [Verse 3: Lil' Nation] I come out bussin' like a gauge, nobody's safe when I'm enraged Sacrifice the suckers and weak motherfuckers that run in fear I'm the menace to misery, answer the knock at your door and open it, AK delivery Best known for bein' unsympathetic when I pick 'em 'Cause sympathy is for the pathetic and to the victim Kill 'em and kill another, mercy's my only incapacity, started by killin' my own mother Maniacal madman, son of Mephisto Bound to go to hell since I was an embryo A criminal, cold standin' in a gangsta pose Steppin' with Ren The Villain, slappin' up all the hoes Your mother, your sister, your daughter, your wife, and if you was reincarnated I would snatch your second life In it for the money, down for me, myself, and I, you see? And fuck the community I know in conclusion that death is my destiny, but fuck it 'Cause shootin' motherfuckers is left in me So write my malevolent epitaph, put it in the book of Guinness And title it "The Ballad of a Menace" [Chorus: Ice Cube] I'm a menace- I'm a m-m-menace- I'm a m- I'm a m- I'm a menace to society I'm a mena- I'm a m-m-menace I'm a m- I'm a m- I'm a menace to society I'm a menace- I'm a m-m-menace- I'm a m- I'm a m- I'm a menace to society [Outro: Ice Cube] I'm a menace- I'm a m-m-menace- I'm a m- I'm a m- I'm a menace to society
