Title: Snoop - Original Lyrics to "Imagine"
Post by: PLANT on January 20, 2007, 10:51:46 PM: Imagine a world
Where most black men die young
Forced to gang bang
Or sell dope and crack to the young
Yeah, well that’s where we hail from
The slum
Where most folks ain’t welcome
So you dog or you loc
Smoke coke or you sell some
Imagine growing up feeling country
Imagine not understanding
Why you got it the worst
Now try to imagine my tears
Imagine your people being in slavery
For a hundred years
And imagine you never knew it
Imagine how bad since then
That you would have been going through it
Imagine if rap wasn’t out yet
Imagine having all this pain
Built up, with no outlet
Imagine how many lives would be ruined
If it wasn’t for hip hop
Imagine what we’d all be doing
Imagine me sitting on a porch or a stool
Just bullshitting and never being called Snoop
Imagine if the government
Was hoping for good
Imagine if they never put
Dope in the hood
I mean imagine if they let us
Mold the youth
Imagine if these mother fuckers
Just told the truth
Imagine if they wasn’t haters
Imagine what would rap be
If we wasn’t the originators
Now let your imagination run away
Imagine life without hip hop
Snoop Dogg and Dr Dre

what happend to this verse ???

Dre had him re-do his verse with D.O.C.

Kam spits Snoop's OG verse on his myspace.

Post by: K.Dub on January 21, 2007, 08:14:05 AM: Kam should've been on the song or an official remix should've been released

Post by: Blu Lacez on February 02, 2007, 03:56:52 PM: I like both versions!!
I think if Snoop is gon do a remix, he can still use Kam's version or him and Kam can work on nautha one..
But the verse Snoop kicked on the "Imagine" track..i don't see nothing wrong with it!

Post by: MIAMI4LIFE on February 02, 2007, 04:02:26 PM: It's not gonna be released as a single so I guess Snoop is keeping the DOC's verse
