Lyrics
When I went to school
Attending school
I was nobody's fool
Not easily deceived or manipulated
No good for me
Not beneficial for me
I was living carefree
Living without worries
Staying out all night
Spending nights outside
Learning to fight
Acquiring fighting skills
I got the dirty
Engaging in illicit activities
I was tough, I was mean
Tough and mean personality
It was up to me
Personal responsibility
Stree-stree-stree-street fighting gang
Identifying with a street fighting gang
I don't need no spelling
Disregarding formal education
I take my winning when I'm ready
Taking victory when opportune
But you wouldn't be alike
Being different when fighting
When we learn to fight
Learning combat skills
When we start to roam
Wandering the streets
Then you'd better stay home
Warning others to stay home
'Cause I'm a member of the street elite
Identifying as part of an exclusive street group
You know it's trouble to all we meet
Potential trouble for everyone encountered
It was up to me
Reiterating personal responsibility
Fighting through the night
Fighting throughout the night
Doing alright
Doing well in the street life
We might take your life
Possibly taking someone's life
Street fighting gang
Member of a street fighting gang
Street fighting gang
Repeating the affiliation
If I take you out one night
Potential danger in accompanying the speaker
And you're risking your life
Risking one's life
If I show you the blade
Introducing a weapon
You got a fool in your brain
Having a foolish mindset
'Cause I don't give a damn, no
Indifference and lack of concern
'Cause I don't know you
Unfamiliarity and lack of connection
I'm a member of the street elite
Reiteration of street elite membership
You know it's trouble to all we meet
Potential trouble for those encountered
It was up to me
Restating personal responsibility
Street fighting gang
Identifying with the street fighting gang
Street fighting gang
Repeating the gang affiliation
I'm in a street fighting gang
Reiterating membership in a street fighting gang
Street fighting gang
Emphasizing street fighting gang affiliation
I'm in a gang
Reiterating gang membership
The gang
Final affirmation of belonging to the gang
