Lyrics: Bone Thugs-N-Harmony: Thug World Order: What About Us?
Chorus: Krayzie Bone
What about us?
What about my niggas still out on the street?
What about us?
What about my partners doin’ time?
What about us?
What about this harassment from the police?
What about us?
What about my young thugs dyin’?
What about us?
What about my niggas still out on the street?
What about us?
What about my partners doin’ time?
What about us?
What about this harassment from the police?
What about us?
What about my young thugs dyin’?
Layzie Bone
This for my incarcerated niggas
That’s stuck in the pen they ain’t home
Gotta stay strong ’cause you ain’t alone
Remember you always got love from Bone
But still is pain and may not know it
I’m a poet and I gots to show it
I hear the cries from the babies
That wish they had a chance don’t wanna blow it
But unemployed for all the little girls and boys
You gots to love your mom and daddy
And make them wonder why you get them ploys
Oh boy its getting deep but more expensive then ever cheap
But what about that little nigga runnin’ the streets
Making a livin’ through his beats
What about these wack ass politicians
They don’t care if we live or die
What about that elderly barely breathing
Gotta survive on S.S.I.
They say America
The land of the free and home of brave
It’s mass hysteria
So bring your knees and hope you get paid
And if you bury us
At least we can live as we believe
Dog ain’t ever gonna break our pride
Ain’t nothing you can do to keep us weak
And all of my souljahs comin’ together
Get on your feet
Be ready to bust
What about this war against terrorism (fuck that)
And what about this war against us
Chorus: Krayzie Bone
What about us?
What about my niggas still out on the street?
What about us?
What about my partners doin’ time?
What about us?
What about this harassment from the police?
What about us?
What about my young thugs dyin’?
What about us?
What about my niggas still out on the street?
What about us?
What about my partners doin’ time?
What about us?
What about this harassment from the police?
What about us?
What about my young thugs dyin’?
Wish Bone
What about them thugs that’s dead and gone
What about them thugs that ain’t even grown
What about them thugs that out here lost
And ain’t ever gonna find their way home
Suspicion got you furious
So grab your shit and gon’ listin’ us
It’s violence but violence is the only way they gon’ respect us
Resist system when the ghetto back wrong place wrong time
You be gone how they sleep at night if they know they be lyin’
This shit we deal with we young black and fearless
Livin’ in the ghetto to ghetto
And ghetto ’cause ghetto is all we know
They beat us down for dumb shit
They lock us up for dumb shit
Find out that I’m innocent and still gotta fight for money they owe me
And they wonder why we riot in the damn streets
They can’t hold us down we getting all that money
And watch what I tell you
verybody wants some
How they get it they don’t care
Try to kick it when you spittin’ real smooth
But they listenin’ in my business tryin’ to fuck up my mood
Move out
Chorus: Krayzie Bone
What about us?
What about my niggas still out on the street?
What about us?
What about my partners doin’ time?
What about us?
What about this harassment from the police?
What about us?
What about my young thugs dyin’?
What about us?
What about my niggas still out on the street?
What about us?
What about my partners doin’ time?
What about us?
What about this harassment from the police?
What about us?
What about my young thugs dyin’?
Bizzy Bone
Dead niggas I’ve been to war
Been tall with ha!
I seen it all
Like soap operas from ghetto stars
I can tell when rappers getting bored with it
Sometimes she a bitch
Sometimes my lady
And times when niggas die she held me like I was a baby
The simplest things in life was always the best
Breathing your last breath of wretch
Chronic in your chest
Hey somebody call my mama
And hold me one more time
Before I die my mama
She carry me no comma
Niggas bitches and drama
I can recollect walking and stoppin’
Pops not even checking on me
Juvenile delinquent
And baby Joe respectin’ me
The P.O. he takin’ me in
Whether we slave and fuck the latchkey kid
Can’t wait for posse all the shit that I did
Like spittin’ on them foxies keyed up
In the power my nigs
This is the life that I love
This is the life that I live
And it’s a life full of lust
Nigga
Chorus: Krayzie Bone

Krayzie Bone
My partner called me after court (what’s up?)
He said he got twenty-five to life just for slangin’ some dope
They makin’ some cheese just to feed their folks
And daylight come but he won’t go home
It’s sad ’cause it’s sadder for us to get caught up by the po-po fo sho’
And what about our boys and young girls
In they wicked young world
Coming to school with heaters bustin’ at teachers
Whatever happened to family and humanity we posses
What about our babies
They strugglin’ in this mess so strees
Crooked coppers scaring the niggas off in the hood
What about them niggas that get blown off the block if they good
See most of the niggas still on the street
Still struggling and hustlin’ trying to get something eat
Some of them resting in piece and some will never get free
Bone Thug gotta show love
Keep it trill and really real
And let ’em know about us
Chorus: Krayzie Bone
What about us?
What about my niggas still out on the street?
What about us?
What about my partners doin’ time?
What about us?
What about this harassment from the police?
What about us?
What about my young thugs dyin’?
What about us?
What about my niggas still out on the street?
What about us?
What about my partners doin’ time?
What about us?
What about this harassment from the police?
What about us?
What about my young thugs dyin’?
What about us?
What about us?
