Once upon a time in the projects yo

I damn near had to wreck a hoe

Yellin through the screen do' (HEY, let me in!)

(Big Daddy got a fifth of gin, and down to sin)

Baby up in two-ten, is on a nigga

Bendin over pickin up her mail, she can tell I'm dyin to get her

I'm sittin in yo' livin room, slash kitchen

A nigga ain't tryin to be the fuckin groom so stop bitchin

I like the way that ass is switchin, answer the do'

Some nigga in a eighty-kay, yo' baby daddy

lookin like he mad at me (what) wit'cho name on his neck

Here we go with mo' drama in the projects

Wait a minute, who is this motherfucker?

You better take his ass in the back, and start talkin

Nick that bud 'fore it bloom, and start stalkin

I can hear you guys yellin a little strugglin

Youse a FOOL if you think that I'm jumpin in

That nigga jet, smokin on a ciggarette

You say domestic shit, get you soakin wet?

Well come widdit and get it, blow my socks

while I'm drinkin all the Kool-Aid, watchin Jamie Foxx

I'm hearin mo' knocks

(Oh, that's just my people

They came all the way to the projects to meet you) Who?

This fool wearin black, his girl, in the see through

Distraction, a little action, I woke up

Tied up like (What happened? Punk you shoulda stuck to rappin

Niggaz tell me you got a house full of platinum..

Where the platinum at motherfucker?

I hear that shit worth more than gold!)

Wait a minute motherfucker, this my house!

Once upon a time in the projects (3x)

Once upon a time, once upon a time

I'm like baffled, they got me gaffled, with the duct tape

So I remain raw, in come this chainsaw

Another knock, it's the girl from two-ten

here to drop salt, that's when them bitches fought

I thought, "I bet-ta plan my escape"

In the midst of this commotion, Ice Cube is breakin tape

I'm free, bombin on the first thing I see

And guess who walk in, with a nine, and a grin

It's the baby daddy he ain't playin,

He started layin everybody down, about face with a frown

I'm runnin to the bedroom, I lock the do'

and grab the phone, the bitch phone ain't turned on

I think I'm gone, that's when I hear a soft knock

It's the girl from two-ten, with her number, and a glock

Said, "Call me up, if it's for sex, or chin check

Nigga get you a real ass bitch from the projects!"

And I just might do that

Once upon a time in the projects (3x)

Once upon a time, once upon a time
