If It Ain't Ruff Songtext
von N.W.A

Ren is the villain, and you′re just a hostage
So whenever I'm steppin′ cover your head like an ostrich
Groupies been waitin' for this, suckers been hatin' for this
You know why? ′Cause so many are relatin′ to this
Jealous, is how they feelin' intentionally
But they start to love it because I made it eventually
Pumpin′ the music, I keep the music like pumpin'
′Cause Ren ain't in here for nothin′, I keep the average crowd jumpin'

Yo, you know the color, the villain's in black
Always down, to make noise, and attack
So you better get back, unless you wanna come wit′ it
And make your face like a target and close your eyes when I hit it
You′re screamin' wit′ fear, but it's wit′ fear that you're screamin′
You're wakin' up in a sweat ′cause Ren is givin′ bad dreams and
I'm not schemin′, I'm just tellin′ the facts
That's how it is when N.W.A. starts to jack


So brothers, that wanna scrap wit′ me
That's weezin' and sneezin′ will have to lap wit′ me
Especially beggin' to write some lyrics wit′ me
I just, snatch your girl to take a nap wit' me
′Cause when it comes to Ren there's no comparison
And if you try to beat me, it′s quite embarrassin'
But I understand 'cause you′re mentally slow
′Cause I can tell from the jump you're too nervous to go

If it ain′t ruff, it ain't me
(The gangsta′s in black and he's about to attack)
If it ain′t ruff, it ain't me
(Lemme bust a freestyle then)
(A'ight bet)

I can tell, that you′re afraid to fight me
Simple because you lost the crowd, and they had to invite me
Because your sweat is a puddle, but there′s a puddle of sweat
I'm a threat, so get a cold rag and wipe your neck
And clean the dirt off your face that cause acne
It′s ridiculous thinkin' that you could jack me
This is the round where the punch will go
Into your H-E-A-D, that′s known as a blow
I'm makin′ a point, but it's a point that I'm makin′
Like, see, I′m hatin' the fakin′, I keep the suckers like shakin'


Scared to speak wit′ a thought when they're chosen
The sound of my voice in their ear and they′re frozen
This is a battle to the death, it's like the same ol'
Against a brother on a tip, with a Kangol
Givin′ ′em pain, but it's wit′ pain that I'm givin′
But I'm comparin′ and tearin' 'em but I′m makin a livin′
With the hype of a nine volt battery
And the odds for me to conquer is averagely good
Meanin' I′mma flow
I'm from the streets so, yo, I′m ready to go

If it ain't ruff, it ain′t me (yo Ren)
(The gangsta's in black and he's about to attack)
If it ain′t ruff, it ain′t me
(Man whatcha gonna do now?)
(Get funky)

The "Do Not Disturb" sign is in effect
While I'm thinkin′ of a fool to select
To give the victim the verdict, so for the verdict a victim
Slammin' my vocals on a dance with the rest, then I kick them
Tell ′em they're guilty, and peep out the bailiff
And get a new track of drums so I can play with
Percussion, pumpin′ it loud when I perform
Yo, you wanna play in my game, put on a uniform
It ain't a rule in the book you have to go by
Hey, 'cause when it comes to cheatin′, yo, you should know I

Put fear in their hearts, ′cause it's their hearts full of fear
′Cause what you hear in your ear is somethin' funky and clear
The Hulk was incredible yo but Ren he was super
But now I′m ruthless, a civilian and not a trooper
But a soldier, with a top rankin'
Givin′ dope material, the hell with the gankin'
So play like an airplane, and just jet
And keep your blood pressure low 'cause I′m a threat, ′cause if not
I'm afraid of the show
That you′re a sucker, and you're too nervous to go

If it ain′t ruff, it ain't me (yo Ren)
(The gangsta′s in black and he's about to attack)
If it ain't ruff, it ain′t me (yo Ren)
(The gangsta′s in black)
If it ain't ruff, it ain′t me
(The gangsta's in black and he′s about to attack)

If it ain't ruff, it ain′t me (yo Ren)
(The gangsta's in black)
If it ain't ruff, it ain′t me
(The gangsta′s in black and he's about to attack)
If it ain′t ruff, it ain't me (yo Ren)
(The gangsta′s in black)
If it ain't ruff, it ain′t me
