"What's. what's."
"What's going on? What's going on?" (4X)(Canibus)
The club scene is a regular hangout spot for unclean
Women in tight jeans, fronting like queens
Chicken heads, who should be home taking care of their eggs
Instead, they're always in the club flirting with men
Now, I don't care about them hypenoholic bitches
All I'm concerned with is who's bringing their burners in to burn niggas
While security practice is a mediocre precaution
Niggas is still stealthily sneaking their firearms in
Often, niggas be acting like they're marksmen
But couldn't hit a stationary object
So, how you gonna hit a moving target? Especially if you alcoholic
The party was coconuts until you spoiled it
Nigga, what's going on?
Chorus: Canibus "samples")
"What's going on? What's going on?"
What's going on these days?
Can't do no Hip Hop shows without the gunplay
"What's going on? What's going on?"
What's going on? Why is everybody packing?
"While you rapping, I'm busy trying to sneak the gat in" -> Havoc
"What's going on? What's going on?"
What's goin on these days?
Can't do no hip-hop shows without the gunplay
"What's going on? What's going on?"
Before you blaze, think about the lives at stake
"You got a gun up in your waist, please don't shoot up the place" -> Biggie
(Canibus)
Aiyo
The other night I seen some kid getting loud, running his mouth
'Til somebody pulled the damn thing out, then shots rang out
This nigga in front of me got his back blown out
On the floor, with a piece of his small intestines hanging out
I had to scream on the bouncers to carry him out
They said, "Nah, them niggas is still busting in the crowd"
Then they ducked down close to the ground, as the bullets whizzed by
Praying to Allah, 'cause they don't wanna die
But neither do I, fuck it, I gotta be here
As a rap artist, it's a vital part of my career
I swear, y'all niggas need to chill with that
Bringing your handguns to every goddamn club I perform at
Everything from semi-autos to MACs
Chrome or black, plastic gats and all that
Believe it or not, the government wants that
So they can use that as an excuse to shut down rap
What's going on?Chorus(Canibus)
All of my Hip Hop niggas should feel what I'm speaking upon
A subject that was touched by Nas and Pharoahe Monch
Bullets, being shot from guns, guns being carried by thugs
Who come to the clubs, to shed blood
Bear in mind, that every time a nigga reaches for chrome
He jeopardizes more lives than his own
To some this record ain't even relevant, until you experience
How a bullet can shatter your dreams in a millisec'
By some thug cats, who didn't take that
By busting a gat, they could render somebody handicapped
And trapped, in a wheelchair over nothing
With the gift of walking and running snatched from them
What the fuck is going on?(Chorus to fade)
