[Dr. Dre] Imagine it never happened Imagine no rappin' Imagine niggaz trapped Imagine it havin' action Imagine how niggaz could be actin' If you never got this shit crackin Imagine life's so hard You can't imagine it's like livin' in city of god You feel me Imagine life on the yard I'm tryin' to get that dollar on some shitty ass job Imagine Biggie with his son Imagine Pac gettin' call pop 'bout one Imagine a mother strugling Dealing with a system that don't give a fuck about who shot her son Imagine life you can't win When you get out of the ghetto and go right to the pen When you get out to the pen you go right to the jenz When you put back to the streets you get right back in Imagine Russell still strugling No Def Jam it's anotoher nigga hustlin' And no rocks on them fellaz Just rocks on them fellaz Just try and keep it bubblin' Imagine niggaz just stoped From the east to the west coast, everybody fucked up I can't imagine no less But it don't take imagination To know niggaz been bless with HIP-HOP
[Chorus] Before we go Can you imagine? Picture years, with your mom Can you imagine? Hang her picture in the sky Can you imagine? Call emergency I've been dreamin' all my life.
[Snoop Dogg] Could you imagine bein' lit up by some hot shells? Imagine being tossed around and put in jails Imagine life when you can't get from under Imagine niggaz at ya when you done fo' Remember when they asks ya why ya run for and treat ya like a bitch When they kick you in your dick and take your shit We act like we hate to see you gun hoe But just imagine if the rappin' got the gun no but you already know. Imagine niggaz in the LBC felt just like Snoop Dogg & D-R-E, And felt just like the niggaz in the 2-1-3. Then imagine us was comin' when you fuckin' with me. Imagine you was up on top of this shit Imagine if the bitches could stay off this dick I mean imagine we said fuck this shit Imagine if my niggaz got together and tow up this bitch, yeah You can't imagine growin' up in the jail done Happy just to be alive' watching all your people run Would you imagine growin' up to sell your 50 million records world wide or fuckin' on somebodies son Imagine if these niggaz neva saw a colour Would it be peaceful in them streets where niggaz kill each other All the drunk fool gets pissed on balls He fuckin' off my niggaz, they gone murder us all Imagine that
