Greeting boys and girls

My name is Petey P

Kendrick's childhood imaginary friend that's right that's right

I am your neighbor

And I'd like to welcome you to good kid m A A d city

So grab your cartoons and cereal
Your pop guns and fireworks
And sing along

When we grow up we gon' go and get us a million

Spend it all in front of the county building
Blow it like Coltrane blow it like Coltrane
Sing along kids sing along
When we grow up we gon' go and get us a million

Spend it all in front of the county building
Blow it like Coltrane blow it like Coltrane
Kendrick you remember that one time when we was
I've been waiting on this day since Dr Dre and Pac
Was on Rosecrans in that burgerstand at '95
People staring at 'em in amazement
Reservations at the Days Inn
We was living out a hotel at the time
Breakfast lunch and dinner chicken from Kentucky Fried
Mama babysitting Section 8 vouchers the move
When nothing else to lose but a burger flipping job
Close my eyes inside the swap meet and imagine it's a mansion
Gold ballroom AK-47 dancing
Howling at the moon what's a pack of hungry babies
Hope you feed us soon bite your back you die of rabies
Everyday we pray to eat at the table at Sizzlers
But never make the visit if better days was on its way
Then they make the decision to make the wrong turn
So for now we heat this skillet so this canned food can burn
Oh yeah I remember that it was the ravioli with the hot sauce in it right
When we grow up we gon' go and get us a million
Am I right
Spend it all in front of the county building oh
Blow it like Coltrane blow it like Coltrane
Don't forget to sing along by the way sing along
When we grow up we gon' go and get us a million

Spend it all in front of the county building
Blow it like Coltrane blow it like
And all the ghetto children in the world say that's my car
All the ghetto boys say that's my car
All the ghetto girls say that's my car
When we grow up when we grow up
Ghetto children in the world say that's my car
All the ghetto boys say that's my car
All the ghetto girls say that's my car
When we grow up when we grow up

Nig-***** you remember the smoke and the burning buildings and ****
Couple stolen T V 's and a seat belt for my safety
Played the passenger I think it's five years after eighty
Seven do the math '92 don't you be lazy
Looking out the window notice all the essentials
Of a block party that stop for a second then it rekindle
Like a flame from a trick candle everybody got dental
Insurance 'cause we 'bout to floss you get that couch I sent you
I heard that from a block away probably had credentials
Of a scholar but **** not today them Dayton Spokes was his to take
Refrigerators barbecue pits and Jordan kicks
They did invasions while helicopters recorded it
Hello Mi-Mister Miyagi I want them Kenwood woofers
Say that you got me if not I'll dig in your drawer for it
The swap meet was the bulls' eye like Tauruses
Murder was the melody you should know what the chorus is
Papa you really telling me we can just get some more of it
If we run out
He said 'lil ***** today the poor is rich
Don't tell your mom that you seen a Molotov bomb
If she ask just know you have to lie and son don't forget
*****es ain't **** hoes ain't neither
****** gon' snitch watch the company you keeping
And one day you'll put money in the ghetto when you got it
Rather than having to hustle off these Rodney King riots
That's right the motha****in' Rodney King
You was with your daddy on Bullis Road
When we grow up we gon' go and get us a million that's crazy
Spend it all in front of the county building
Blow it like Coltrane blow it like Coltrane
Don't forget still sing along kids still sing along
When we grow up we gon' go and get us a million please sing
Spend it all in front of the county building
Blow it like Coltrane blow it like Coltrane
