Let me tell you, this gangsta and this gentleman shit,
it's about being humble,
but at the same time,
let niggas know it's real.
And when I say be real, I can flip,
but at the same time,
I can talk to a nigga at
the same time.
If he don't respect that,
then you got to show him you're a gangster.
He respect that, you show him you're a gentleman,
because you respect him as a man.
That's what a gangster
and a gentleman is about.
