It makes me feel the way I need to feel.

I was like the class clown in school so I guess I would say I did like the attention. In church I did a lot of plays, my mother made me play characters, do a lot of drama and acting, trying to become someone else. So it helped me create who I am, to create Snoop Dogg.

If they would have put positive opportunities in front of me to make $1000 a week, I would have done it. But they didn't. They put $1000 in front of me and an illegal way to make it. And they expect me not to do it because they say it's wrong.

Be your own leader, be your own self, step out of my shadows and be your own person.

Do what your heart tells you is right.

I'm destined to live and say things.

Cut throats, gun smoke, dope, and hoes, is what controls niggas souls.
