Animals Lyrics - Compton: A Soundtrack By Dr. Dre - Dr. Dre

These old sneakers, faded blue jeans 

No tricks no gimmicks, I be stomping down down down down down demons 

Rolling up trees in the belly of the beast 

Where the people disagree, the upper class hate 

Middle don't exist, the bottom of the beat, glad I got my sticks 

Are you jumping on a fad, laying in a ditch 

I be stomping down demons, stomping down quick, come on 

The police don't come around these parts 

They tell me that we all a bunch of animals 

The only time they wanna turn the cameras on 

Is when we're fuckin' shit up, come on 

Bullets still ringing, blood on the cement 

Black folks grieving, headlines reading 

Tryna pay it no mind, you just living your life 

Everyone is a witness, everyone got opinions 

Got a son of my own, look him right in his eyes 

I ain't living in fear but I'm holding him tight 

Got a son of my own, look him right in his eyes 

I ain't living in fear but I'm holding him tight

Damn, why the fuck are they after me? 

Maybe cause I'm a bastard 

Or maybe cause of the way my hair grow naturally 

Still tryna figure out, why the fuck I'm full of rage 

I think I know this is bullshit right around the fifth grade 

Paraphernalia in my locker right next to the switch blade 

Nothing but pussy on my mind and some plans of getting paid (Ay) 

But I'm a product of the system raised on government aid 

And I knew just how to react when it was time for that raid (whoa) 

Just a young black man from Compton wondering who could save us 

And could barely read the sentences the justice system gave us 

So many rental cars with bricks, I think they probably funded Avis 

Some of us was unbalanced but some us used our talents 

Not all of us criminals but cops be yelling, "Stay back nigga!" 

We need a little bit of payback 

Don't treat me like an animal cause all this shit is flammable 

Don't fuck around cause when it's done it's done 

(Fuck you!) 

And the old folks tell me it's been going on since back in the day 

But that don't make it okay 

And the white folks tell me all the looting and the shooting's insane 

But you don't know our pain 

The police don't come around these parts 

They tell me that we all a bunch of animals 

The only time they wanna turn the cameras on 

Is when we're fuckin' shit up, come on 

The police don't come around these parts 

They tell me that we all a bunch of animals 

The only time they wanna turn the cameras on 

Is when we're fuckin' shit up, come on 

These old sneakers, faded blue jeans 

No tricks no gimmicks, I be stomping down down down down down demons 

Rolling up trees in the belly of the beast 

Where the people disagree, the upper class hate 

Middle don't exist, the bottom of the beat, glad I got my sticks 

Are you jumping on a fad, laying in a ditch 

I be stomping down demons, stomping down quick, come on 

And the old folks tell me it's been going on since back in the day 

But that don't make it okay 

And the white folks tell me all the looting and the shooting's insane 

But you don't know our pain 

The police don't come around these parts 

They tell me that we all a bunch of animals 

The only time they wanna turn the cameras on 

Is when we're fuckin' shit up, come on 

The police don't come around these parts 

They tell me that we all a bunch of animals 

The only time they wanna turn the cameras on 

Is when we're fuckin' shit up, come on 

Yeah, this is DJ motherfuckin' Premier 

And I'm Dr. Dre (Dr. Dre) 

What, Premo! 

Yeah we fuckin' shit up 

No, we don't play no games here 

Mother fucker please!
