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? //

[Canibus]
What’s going on these days? //
Can’t do no Hip-Hop shows, without the gunplay //
What’s going on, why is everybody packing? //
What’s going on these days? //
Can’t do no Hip-Hop shows, without the gunplay //
Before you blaze, think about the lives at stake //

Yo //
The other night I seen some kid getting loud, running his mouth //
’Till 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 God damn 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? //

[Canibus]
What’s going on these days? //
Can’t do no Hip-Hop shows, without the gunplay //
What’s going on, why is everybody packing? //
What’s going on these days? //
Can’t do no Hip-Hop shows, without the gunplay //
Before you blaze, think about the lives at stake //

Yo //
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? //

What’s going on these days? //
Can’t do no Hip-Hop shows, without the gunplay //
What’s going on, why is everybody packing? //
What’s going on these days? //
Can’t do no Hip-Hop shows, without the gunplay //
Before you blaze, think about the lives at stake //
