This Is How We Do It - Ian Thomas

This is how we do it

It’s Friday night, and I feel alright

The party is here on the West Side

So I reach for my 40 and I turn it up

Designated driver, take the keys to my truck

Hit the 'shaw cause I’m faded

Honies in the street say, «Ian, yo, we made it!»

It feels so good in my hood tonight

The summertime skirts and the guys in Kani

All the gangbangers forgot about the drive-by

You gotta get your groove on, before you go get paid

So tip up your cup and throw your hands up

And let me hear the party say

I’m kinda buzzed and it’s all because (This is how we do it)

South Central does it like nobody does (This is how we do it)

To all my neighbors, you got much flavor (This is how we do it)

Let’s flip the track, bring the old school back (this is how we do it)

This is how we do it, all hands are in the air

And wave them from here to there

If you’re an O.G.

mack or a wannabe player

You see the hood’s been good to me

Ever since I was a lower-case g

But now I’m a big G

The girls see I got the money

Hundred-dollar bills, y’all

If you were from where I’m from then you would know

That I gotta get mine in a big black truck

You can get yours in a '64

Whatever it is, the party’s underway

So tip up your cup and throw your hands up

And let me hear the party say…

So tip up your cup and throw your hands up

And let me hear the party say

I’m kinda buzzed and it’s all because (This is how we do it)

South Central does it like nobody does (This is how we do it)

To all my neighbors, you got much flavor (This is how we do it)

Let’s flip the track, bring the old school back (this is how we do it)

Check it out

I have drinked too much (Yeah)

My world’s turning (Haha)

My whole world is turning

Ayo Ian Thomas, this ya boy Fo Onassis

Let me show you how we do it around my way

Shades on, blacking up the night

The right niggas in the cup make the homie right

Our feeling had a flight, must be glad

And the gonna lose

Baby girl

Opportunity thief, baby I take chances

I move fast cause

You got a boyfriend but I won’t stop with messing

Put your love to the test, I got the right

So put your hands high, I’m doing shots with the moon till it’s daytime

You lost your mind?

You can take mine (Yeah)

We outta control, on the move this is how we do

I’m kinda buzzed and it’s all because (This is how we do it)

South Central does it like nobody does (This is how we do it)

To all my neighbors, you got much flavor (This is how we do it)

Let’s flip the track, bring the old school back (this is how we do it)

I’m kinda buzzed and it’s all because

South Central does it like nobody does, nobody does

YNV, SCC, all my homies

I’ll never come wack on an old school track
