I feel the Geto Boys are oddly relevant here:

  And niggas always gotta high cap
  Showin' all his boys how he shot em
  But real gangsta-ass niggas don't flex nuts
  'cause real gangsta-ass niggas know they got em
  And everythings cool in the mind of a gangsta
  'cause gangsta-ass niggas think deep
  Up three-sixty-five a year 24/7
  'cause real gangsta ass niggas don't sleep
