[Verse 1: Dr. Dre & Knoc-turn’al]
Things just ain’t the same for gangstas
Times is changin’, young niggas is agin’
Becoming OG’s in the game and changin’
To make way for these new names and faces
But the strangest things can happen from rappin’
When niggas get wrapped up in image and actin’
Niggas get capped up and wrapped in plastic
Zipped up in bags, when it happens – that’s it
I’ve seen ’em come, I’ve watched them go
Watched them rise, witnessed it, and watched them blow
Watched them all blossom, and watched them grow
Watched the lawsuits when they lost the dough
Best friends and money? I lost them both
Went and visited niggas in the hospital
It’s all the same shit all across the globe
I just sit back and watch the show (The Watcher)
[Chorus: Eminem & Knoc-turn’al]
Everywhere that I go
Ain’t the same as befo’ (The Watcher)
People I used to know
Just don’t know me no mo’ (The watcher)
But everywhere that I go
I got people I know (The Watcher)
Who got people they know
So I suggest you lay low (I’m watchin’)
[Verse 2: Dr. Dre & Knoc-turn’al]
I moved out of the hood for good – you blame me?
Niggas aim, mainly, at niggas they can’t be
But niggas can’t hit niggas they can’t see
I’m out of sight now, I’m out of their dang reach
How would you feel if niggas wanted you killed?
You’d probably move to a new house on a new hill
And choose a new spot, if niggas wanted you shot
I ain’t a thug – how much 2Pac in you you got?
I ain’t no bitch, neither
It’s either my life or your, life and I ain’t leavin’ – I like breathin’
‘Cause, nigga, we can go round for round
Clip for clip – shit, four pound for pound
Nigga, if you really want to take it there, we can
Just remember that you fuckin’ with a family man
I got a lot more to lose than you
Remember that when you wanna come and fill these shoes (The Watcher)
[Chorus: Eminem & Knoc-turn’al]
Everywhere that I go
Ain’t the same as befo’ (The Watcher)
People I used to know
Just don’t know me no mo’ (TheWatcher)
But everywhere that I go
I got people I know (The Watcher)
Who got people they know
So I suggest you lay low (I’m watchin’)
[Verse 3: Dr. Dre & Knoc-turn’al]
Things just ain’t the same for gangstas
Cops is anxious to put niggas in handcuffs
They wanna hang us, see us dead, or enslave us
Keep us trapped in the same place we raised in
Then, they wonder why we act so outrageous
Run around, stressed out and pull out gauges
‘Cause every time you let the animal out cages
It’s dangerous to people who look like strangers
But now, we got a new era of gangstas
Hustlers and youngsters livin’ amongst us
Lookin’ at us now, callin’ us busters
Can’t help but reminisce back when it was us
Nigga, we started this gangsta shit!
And this the motherfuckin’ thanks I get?
It’s funny how time flies
I’m just having fun, just watchin’ it fly by (The Watcher)
[Chorus: Eminem & Knoc-turn’al]
Everywhere that I go
Ain’t the same as befo’ (The Watcher)
People I used to know
Just don’t know me no mo’ (The Watcher)
But everywhere that I go
I got people I know (The Watcher)
Who got people they know
So I suggest you lay low (I’m watchin’)
[Outro: Knoc-turn’al]
The Watcher
I’m watching
The Watcher
The Watcher
