The Ghorpade (Marathi: घोरपडे) are a sub-clan of the Maratha Bhosale clan within the Maratha clan system. They are found largely in Maharashtra and Karnataka in India, as well as other states in which Marathas are found.
The name Ghorpade was given to the ancestors in 1471 A.D. when Karna Sinha, Shubha Krishnaji and Bhim Sinha the ancestors of Ghorpades and Bhosles scaled the walls of fort for the Bahmani Sultan Mahmud Gawan, having tied their climbing ropes around the belly of a monitor lizard (ghorpad in Marathi) to pull their ropes to the top of the wall. They were given the title of "Raja Bahadur Ghorpade". It is claimed that these two brothers Karnaji, Shubha Krishnaji and Karna Sinhji son Bhimji were descendants of Rana Sujjanji the Sisodia scion who migrated to South with devoted band of Sisodia forces and joined Bahmani Sultan.
The subclan consider themselves to be Sisodia Rajput, settled in Mudhol.The documents bear seals and tughra of Bahmani and Adil Shahi sultans and establish the direct descent of Shivaji and Ghorpade with that of Sisodia of Chittod. They intermarry with certain other Maratha clans, such as the Bhoite, Kate, Bhosale as they share the same totem within the Maratha clan system. The subclan claims descent from King Dorik, an ancient ruler of Chittoud (in modern Rajasthan). The gotra of royal families of Sesodia of Chittor, Bhosle and Ghorpade is same that is Koushik. The firmans received by ancestors of Ghorpade and Bhosle represents Rana Ugrasena as common ancestor of both: Ghorpade are descendants of elder son Raja Karna Sinh and Bholse are descendants of younger son Shubha Krishnaji.
(Pity the child... pity the child)
Now, why should I play around?
Lay it down like most of y'all and lay around?
I'd rather gather hollow heads and lay ya' down
But I'm a little too old to play around
You still bangin' Dr. Dre and Dogg Pound
Snoop is still the hottest motherfucker out
Yessir! We still around
Yessir! We still world renowned
I caught silence, I silence sound
I'm under the radar, stuff silent sound
I'm here, my dude, I am born again
We saber-toothed tigers, y'all Cornish hens
Y'all cornball ballas, we presidents
With presidential-acquired hidden residents
Yessir! We residents
And controllers of secret soldiers and regiments
Yessir! We ball out
Yessir! Till we fall out
We get high (get high), we don't have to try
We don't have to look and we don't have to buy
We don't have to make ends meet to get by
We don't have to try, I am that guy
Yessir! I am that guy
Yessir! I am that fly
I can't help it and I can't stop
And I won't stop and I don't stop
I'm a take the top and put it where the bottom drop
Then I'm a reverse it and make the bottom hit top
See this is what they all call the top spot
Then I'm a show the top where the bottom stop
I am everything that is anything
I can't sing a note so I let the semi sing
Send 'em out on a mission, see what the semi bring
Back home to your selected and newly-elected king
Now that's gangsta [x5]
See that's gangsta
Now that's gangsta
(Keepin it gangsta with'chall)
Now that's gangsta (gangsta)
Gangsta [x11] (gangsta)
Yessir! I am that guy
Yessir! I am that high
Rollercoaster, this whole movement's over
Givin' ya west coasters, the cold shoulder
I am ready, yes, I am here
I am back, Jack, the spinner of the year
Let's get one thing here real crystal clear
We reappear, their hopes disappear
Evaporate, dissipate, your folks disappear
And if you were smart you wouldn't be here
Now that's what I call a double whammy
I don't need the white folks, I get ghetto Grammys
Yessir! I get ghetto Grammys
Yessir! My women's eye candy
I can't help it and I can't stop
And I won't stop, that's why I don't stop
I'm similar to Biggie, similar to Pac
Similar to Snoop, similar to Doc
Similar because they all taught me something, ock
Firsthand, like cock and pop before a nigga talk
I'm airborne, you're grounded
Like you hid your report card and your mama found it
Yessir! I found it
My drrr-ream to go far as God allows me
The sky's the limit
It's in my arm's reach,
So I'm a reach as far as my arms reach
Gangsta [x15]
(Now that's... gangsta)
