April 29th, 1992 Riot in LA Where the fuck was you? You were sitting home watching Ricki Lake While I was dropping bombs on that
First spot that we hit was my liquor store I got 40 years, headed for the door Woo woo, uh thats the sound of the police So we step around the corner and we jet with ease
Next spot that we hit was the music shop It took one slick shot to make that window drop Finally we got our own PA Where you think I got this mic that you hearing today? Hey
"All the units, All the units, be on the alert for a Molotov Cocktail" "All the units, be on the alert for a Molotov Cocktail"
Let it burn Wanna let it burn Wanna let it burn Wanna wanna let it burn
Let it burn Wanna let it burn Wanna let it burn Wanna wanna let it burn
Well we returned to the pad to unload the stash It hit me, I need a couch for my brand new pad Jumped in the air, head to Fedco It's 1992 so there is no Costco
In the hood, they had it up to here From Boyle Heights to Lynwood It gets harder every year I see kids in the store with they moms and pops Taking diapers and liters of pop
Uh, they said it was for the black man For the Mexican And not for the Gabachos Eating nachos and Trader Joe's tacos I'm so cool
Check it, Yo man, this whole situation ain't about Rodney King It's about the whole world The times that we living in Listening to the world It's about coming up Staying on top And screaming 1-8-7 on a motherfucking cop
Let it burn Wanna let it burn Wanna let it burn Wanna wanna let it burn Let it burn Wanna let it burn Wanna let it burn Wanna wanna let it burn
