Rah, Rah, Rah Digga
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Check it out now, uh
Dirty Harriet, Dirty Harriet
Dirty Harriet, yeahWheres my sisters?
Wheres my sisters?
This ones for the brothers
The brothers, the brothersSaid I be rappin for da ladies
Whats up ladies?
But this ones for da brothers
The brothers, the brothers
Yeah, check it out nowNow Im the baby in the family and I got three siblings
Three older brothers and we trying to make a living
So we hustle and we bubble and we coming up fast
Aint gon never be the same since mom and pops pastThe oldest one, child prodigy no doubt
Every since he was a kid used to ride a bitch out
All grown up now nice job, nice clout
Nice wife, nice house, tryna take the right routeTreat sis like a queen brother gave me everything

Any time I got in trouble he could probably pull some strings
Walk daddys footsteps and career same speed
Made the greatest big brother and a father to his own seed(Uh, oh)
But something happened on the job, he started snappin
Problems with the wife, winging out and started cappin
Tried to turn himself in just to make things right
Ended up taking flight 'cause hes not the jail typeThe lesson of today
You have to listen to each and every single word I have to say
Because, Rah Digga remains raw
(Follow the rules, ya hear me, uh?)The lesson of today
You have to listen to each and every single word I have to say
Because, Rah Digga remains raw
(Follow the rules, ya hear me, uh?)Now I got a second brother me and this one was closer
Made me a little tom boy like he was supposed to
Tearing up the place blowing weed in my face
Irresponsible to death parents stayed on his caseProbably 'cause he wanted to be the baby in the family
Drinking with his friends, making up
Mommy carried me, look half way crook getting crazy on the mic
Wasnt really into rap but the shit sound tightHe used to tell me all the time dont wet none sis
By this time next year we gon be dumb rich
Thats when I heard the ill my physical got killed
Just a couple of weeks after signing a record dealNow somebody gots to bust and have to get a little tough
And on the block round the clock niggas aint seen nothing
Yeah right, never seen a brother more determined or eager
Moms and pops couldnt see it now we not gonna see it eitherThe lesson of today
You have to listen to each and every single word I have to say
Because, Rah Digga remains raw
(Follow the rules, ya hear me, uh?)The lesson of today
You have to listen to each and every single word I have to say
Because, Rah Digga remains raw
(Follow the rules, ya hear me, uh?)Now my last and final brother, kinda something out the norm
Some say part depressed some say part deformed
Record unclean since his early teens
In and out the youth house playing all the crime scenesEarly hangin with fiends smoking all types of things
He used to chase a basketball now he chasing pipe dreams
From the door, shit was wrong undetected too long
Bugged out when he was little now he big that was wrongLittle too early had to kick him out the house
He just wanted some attention thats what dad was all about
He used to bust down the door moms cry, pops fight
Even family counseling couldnt make this shit rightWord on the street every body wanna do him
From his so called boys to all the chickens he was screwin
Anybody get the chance, who will probably unload?
How much longer sis got before the last brother gone
Oh noThe lesson of today
You have to listen to each and every single word I have to say
Because, Rah Digga remains raw
(Follow the rules, ya hear me, uh?)The lesson of today
You have to listen to each and every single word I have to say
Because, Rah Digga remains raw
(Follow the rules, ya hear me, uh?)
