2 Up - Why Do I Try So Hard?

Could someone tell me what's up with these try hard homies
the caps back to front but I think they're phonies
they're hanging with the crew decked out in Fubu
the latest Nike sneaker is their choice of shoe
the triple extra large pants so big their saggin'
with the pimp limp their leg they be draggin'
in the hood you know your not a real G
unless you spell fat P-H-A-T

the local shopping centre is the place you hang
chillin' with your bitch and the rest of the gang
comparing knives, shootin' dice and working on your plan
to become an Aussie version of the Wu-Tang Clan

alright.. that's enough you've gotta stop it please
cause this aint New York city or Los Angeles
cause there's no LBC in the LDB
no Snoop Doggy Dogg or Warren G/
You have got to be kiddin' or jokin' or just smokin'
your tracksuits bright green your looking like a fashion fiend
to some but others seem to like it a tonne
Oh shit they've got the same one on
hang on, hang on I think I know what's going on
you feel more hardcore when you dress as one
the Aussie coloured gangs at the shops you hang
coming back everyday like a boomerang
your doing criminal things as your Nokia rings
Mummy's calling you home you've got a family thing
what a cutsie wutsie little gangsta G
harrass me then your running home for tea
your just rich boys wishing you were black or poor
spending days smoking crack or patronising whores
but you don't you won't and your starting to smirk
cause when you turn 17 your Dad will buy you a Merc
man i've been to LA i've seen where gangstas chill
believe me boy it aint nothing like the Hills
so check yourself before you wreck yourself
get the fashion eraser out correct yourself
but if your down with dressing like a clown that's sick
just stop giving me shit when i'm trying to catch a flick/

The gangs are gathered round the front of Grace Brothers
some too young to drive so they're waiting on their Mothers
to come and pick them up and take them home
that's why they've got that flashy new mobile phone
then you've got the ones who are on their P's
with a licence in hand and a set of keys
doing laps of the local neighbourhood
thinking they're looking so damn good
the car is lowered the windows tinted
but what a fucken shame that the spoilers dinted
I guess it doesn't matter when you've got a sick system
that goes so loud the whole world can listen
to your doof doof crap and your gangsta rap
no room for more than two with the woofers in the back
the boys in the hood never looked this good
if you could change your skin colour well I bet ya would
but that aint gonna happen so I guess your just a wigga
at least your looking cool in your Tommy Hilfiger/

Now this is not about race, religon or colour or creed
cause there's dicks in every part of the world you see
it's about teeny boppers hanging out at the shops
wasting all of my time is my path they cross
with your fist firmly clenched and your arms extended
you stared at me and now your offended?
if I was tough enough i'd knock your arse to the floor
but i'm not so I laugh and make a run for the door
you really think that your looking like a Gangsta rapper
like Ice Cubes hanging out in Parramatta
your ghetto is a foodcourt so what's the deal?
some call it Harlem others call it Westfield
so fuck you if you wear Adidas
and just kidding if you ever get to meet us
and if you fall for that then your as dumb as you look
cause when it comes to looking stupid boy you wrote the book/

hahahahaha....

That is almost as funny as the song Ice T sung about his friend who was addicted to crack Has anyone ever heard Ice T sing?? What a joke!

fuck i can relate to this (not like that!). Just went to parramtta last saturday to do some shopping with a friend who insisted on going there, and must have walked past 50 lebbo's all wearing the exact same shit ( i love how they all have the little bumbags around their shoulders, they look like handbags!) , and in any case made the mistake of bumping into one in a food line as he walked backwards onto my foot and turns around and says "what the fuck are you doing bro? , tryin' to come onto me or something" to which i snickered and promptly ignored. You've gotta wonder about the level of mentality...

"you're doing criminal things as your Nokia rings
Mummy's calling you home you've got a family thing"

so true...

I'm just waiting for a moment like this:


made the mistake of bumping into one in a food line as he walked backwards onto my foot and turns around and says "what the fuck are you doing bro? , tryin' to come onto me or something" to which i snickered and promptly ignored.


I'd walk upto the shit, look him in the eye and ask him if he has a problem... and boy would he have one if he started anything....

Happened to my brother once... I smashed the guy into the phone booth which his friend was using and ask him if he wanted to pick on someone his own size... try hard hommie boys.. think they're all so tough.

BAHAHAHAHAAHAHHAHA so true indeed... But you guys should come down to Cabramatta some time hehehe you'll see some hardcore gangsta's there haha You'll have these young asian kiddies with looooong hair styles - dyed brown, and looong fringes, with $200 microfibre pants but with dirty white Nike shoes, walking around swearing in Vietnamese every 2 seconds. This particular fad peaked in the mid to late 90's. It's dramatically cut down now, but theres still quite a few of them out here haha
I'm not dissing asians, I'm Chinese myself, but its things like these that make me wonder... WHY?!?!?!!!?!?
