How we gon' get in for free? 

Now, I calculate the beatin for approximated speakin 

Play it at your party for intoxicated freakin 

One for the motherfuckers at the par-ty 

Two for the DJ's bumpin this for me 

Three for the girls with the fake ID 

and a pound if you snuck through the back for free 

See sneakin into shit probably always been my hobby 

1985, in the Henry J. lobby 

Ten bones for the Fresh Fest to me was like robbery 

Tennis shoes squeakin -- security tried to mob me 

People screamin so loud, they lungs got broke when 

$hort grabbed the mic and started yellin out, "OAKLAND!" 

Not the type of brother that's hard with a death wish 

but one thing that I'll die for is bein on the guest list 

I'm talkin bout a pissyfit, sayin loud explicit shit 

"Can't you read my name motherfucker; ain't you literate?!?!!" 

I be sayin this even if it ain't legitimate 

Although it ain't considerate, I get in with no scrilla spent 

Caught the 57 bus to the Coliseum 

Run-D.M.C. and LL, gotta see em 

Negotiatin with a guard out by the trailer 

Me and twenty potnahs got in for a Taylor 

Later in the game shit was much more elaborate 

Motherfuckers rocked the spot, with fake laminate 

Show em to security, and it was like BAM! 

On stage with Ice Cube at the Summer Jam 

I'm not a fronter and, this ain't a cover band 

I'm always givin you the really and no other than 

Alameda Drive-In, didn't want to pay a buck 

Five motherfuckers layin flat, in the mini-truck 

Used to sneak in to the Eastmont Cinemas 

Through the exit, sometimes about ten of us 

But you know, I guess it was so easy 

cause they playin movies that's already on TV 

Most of them flicks I can't recommend 

But back then, half the fun was sneakin in 

See me in the alley, but nah I ain't no crack hoe 

I'm waitin for my folks to open up the back do'
