1.2 Of Amerikaz Most Wanted

Up out of there
Ain't nothin' but a gangsta party

Ahh shit
You've done fucked up now
You done put 2 of amerikaz most wanted in the same muthafuckin'
place
At the same muthafuckin' time
Ya'll niggas about to feel this
Break out the champange glasses and muthafuckin' condoms
Have one on us aight

Picture perfect
I paint a perfect picture
Bombin' hooties with percision
Mind intensions to get with ya
With the s-n double-o-p dogg
To help my fuckin' homie
You's a cold ass nigga on them all

Sure enough i keep my hand on my gun
Cause they got me on the run
Now i am back in the court room waitin' on the outcome
Free tupac is all that's on a niggas mind
But at the same time
It seem they tryin' to take mine
So i am get smart and get the best of this shit
And put together a million march plus some gangsta shit

So now they got us laced
Two multi millionaire muthafuckas catchin' cases
Bitches get ready for the throw down
The shits about to go down
Uhh, me and snoop about to clown
I am losin' my religion
I am vicious on these stool pigeons
You might be deep in this game
But you got some rules missin'
Niggas be actin like we savage
See i'm a get the cabbage
I got nutin' but love for my niggas livin' lavish

I got a pet named p she niggarino
I got a house out in the hills right next to chino
And i think i got a black beama'
But my dream is to own a fly casino
Like bugsy segal, and do it all illegal
And get scooped up, by the little homie in a regal
Uhh it feel good to ya baby bubba
You see this is for the g's and the ki's muthafucka

Now follow as we ride
Muthafuck the rest
Two of the best from the westside
And i can make you famous
Niggas been dying for years
So how could they blame us
I live in fear of a felony
I never stop ballin' these
Mutha fuckin' g's
If ya got it better flaunt it
Another warrant
2 of amerikaz most wanted

Chorus

Ain't nothin' but a gangsta party (x2)


Nothin' but a gangsta party


Ain't nothin' but a gangsta party


Ain't nothin' but a gangsta party

It ain't nothin' but a muthafuckin' gangsta party


Ain't nothin' but a gangsta party


Ain't nothin' but a gangsta party

It ain't nothin' but a muthafuckin' gangsta party


Ain't nothin but a gangsta party
Now give me 50 feet
The feet is not my destiny
Release me to the streets
And keep what evers left of me
Jealousy is misery, suffery is grief
Better be prepared when you cowards fuck with me i
I busta free, these niggas must be crazy (what)
There ain't no mercy mutha fuckas
Who can fade the thugs?
You thought it was but it wasn't
Now disappear
Bow down in the presence of a boss playa

It's like cuz, blood, gang banging
Everybody in the party doing dope slangin'
You got to have papers in this world
You might get your first snatch before your eyes swirl
Ya doing ya job
Every day
And then you work so hard till ya hair turn gray
Let me tell you about life and 'bout the way it is
See we live by the gun so we die by the blood of kids

They tell me not to roll with my glock
So now i got to throw away
Floating in the black benz
Trying to do a show a day
They wonder how i live with 5 shots
Niggas is hard to kill on my block
Scheme for currency and dough related
Affilliated with the hustlas
So we made it
Your answer to the question
Tryin' to get up on it
My nigga dogg and me tryin' to lead the most wanted

Chorus

Ain't nuttin but a gangsta party (until fade)


2.All About U

(2pac)

You probably crooked as the last trick
Women laugh at how i got my ass caught up with this bad bitch
Thinking i had her but she had me in the long run
It's just my luck i'm stuck here fuckin with the wrong one
Unwise decisions based on lies we living
Skandalous times games like my religion
You could be rolling with a thug
Instead you with this sweet schrub
Looking for some love in every club
I see you starring like you want it
Well baby if yah got it better flaunt it
Let the liquor help you get up on it
I'm still tipsy from last night
Bumpin' into walls as i pause, addicted to the fast life
I try to hollar but you say you taken
Sayin' you ain't impressed with the money i'm makin'
Guess its true what they telling me
Fresh out of jail life's hell for a black celebrity
So thats the reason why i call
And maybe you with it
Fantansies of something can i hit it (ha ha)
Addicted to the things you do
Its still true what i'm saying boo
Cuz this is all about u

Chorus--nate dogg(2x)
Every other city we go
Every other video
No matter where i go
I see the same hoe

(2pac)

I'll make a promise if yah go with me
Have you hollar running out before i leave
Nobody loves me i'm a thug nigga
I only hang out with the criminals and the drug dealers
I love niggas
Be coming from the same place
Witness me hollar at a hoochie, see how long the game takes
How can i tell her i'm a playa
And i don't even care
Creep slow breath smokes into the air
Everywhere i go, its all about the crooked hoes
Waiting for niggas at the end of every show
I just seen yah in my friend's video
I never put a bitch before my friends, the way to go
Follow the leader and peep the drama i'm going through
It's all about u

Chorus

(kurupt)

Is you sick from the dick or is it the flu it ain't about you or
your bitch ass crew


3.Brenda's Got A Baby

Brenda's got a baby
Brenda's got a baby

I hear brenda's got a baby
Well, brenda's barely got a brain
A damn shame
Tha girl can hardly spell her name
(that's not her problem, that's up ta brenda's family)
Well let me show ya how it affects tha whole community
Now brenda never really knew her moms and her dad was a junky
Went in debt to his arms, it's sad
Cause i bet brenda doesn't even know
Just cause your in tha ghetto doesn't mean ya can't grow
But oh, that's a thought, my own revelation
Do whatever it takes ta resist tha temptation
Brenda got herself a boyfriend
Her boyfriend was her cousin, now lets watch tha joy end
She tried to hide her pregnancy, from her family
Who didn't really care to see, or give a damn if she
Went out and had a church of kids
As long as when tha check came they got first dibs
Now brendas belly is gettin bigger
But no one seems ta notice any change in her figure
She's 12 years old and she's having a baby
In love with tha molester, who's sexing her crazy
And yet she thinks that he'll be with her forever
And dreams of a world with tha two of them are together,
whatever
He left her and she had tha baby solo, she had it on tha
bathroom floor
And didn't know so, she didn't know, what ta throw away and what
ta keep
She wrapped tha baby up and threw him in tha trash heep
I guess she thought she'd get away
Wouldn't hear tha cries
She didn't realize
How much tha tha little baby had her eyes
Now tha babys in tha trash heep balling
Momma can't help her, but it hurts ta hear her calling
Brenda wants ta run away
Momma say, you makin' me lose pay, tha social workers here
everyday
Now brenda's gotta make her own way
Can't go to her family, they won't let her stay
No money no babysitter, she couldn't keep a job
She tried ta sell crack, but end up getting robbed
So now what's next, there ain't nothin left ta sell
So she sees sex as a way of leavin hell
It's payin tha rent, so she really can't complain
Prostitute, fair slang, and brenda's her name, she's got a baby

Baaaaaaaaby

(don't you know she's got a baby)
(don't you know she's got a baby)
(don't you know she's got a baby)
(don't you know she's got a baby)
(don't you know she's got a baby)
(don't you know she's got a baby)

Chorus -- roger troutman

The state where ya never find a dance floor empty.
And pimps be on a mission for them greens
Lean mean money-makin'-machines servin' fiends.

Ever since honeys was wearin' sassoon.

Fiendin' for money and alcohol
The life of a west side playa'
Where cowards die, it's our ball
Only in cali where we riot now rallies are live and die.
In l.a. we wearin' chucks not ballies. (yea, that's right)
Dressed in locs and khaki suits
And ride is what we do.
Flossin' but havin' caution
We can lie with other crews.
Famous because we program

Bumpin' and grindin' like a slow jam
It's west side
So you know the row won't bow down to no man.

But give me that bomb beat from dre
Let me serenade the streets of l.a.
From oakland to sacktown
The bay area in bag down
Cali is where they put they mack down
Give me love!

Chorus -- roger troutman

5.Changes

Come on come on i see no changes wake up in the morning and i
ask myself
Is life worth living should i blast myself?
I'm tired of bein' poor and even worse i'm black
My stomach hurts so i'm lookin' for a purse to snatch
Cops give a damn about a negro pull the trigger kill a nigga
he's a hero
Give crack to the kids who the hell cares one less ugly mouth on
the welfare
First ship 'em dope & let 'em deal the brothers
Give 'em guns step back watch 'em kill each other
It's time to fight back that's what huey said
2 shots in the dark now huey's dead
I got love for my brother but we can never go nowhere
Unless we share with each other we gotta start makin' changes
Learn to see me as a brother instead of 2 distant strangers
And that's how it's supposed to be
How can the devil take a brother if he's close to me?
I'd love to go back to when we played as kids
But things changed, and that's the way it is


Come on come on that's just the way it is things'll never be the
same
That's just the way it is aww yeah

I see no changes all i see is racist faces
Misplaced hate makes disgrace to races
We under i wonder what it takes to make this
One better place, let's erase the wasted
Take the evil out the people they'll be acting right
'cause both black and white is smokin' crack tonight
And only time we chill is when we kill each other
It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other
And although it seems heaven sent we ain't ready, to see a black
president, uhh
It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact
The penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks
But some things will never change
Try to show another way but you stayin' in the dope game
Now tell me what's a mother to do bein' real don't appeal to the
brother in you
You gotta operate the easy way
'i made a g today' but you made it in a sleazy way
Sellin' crack to the kid. ' i gotta get paid,'
Well hey, well that's the way it is


We gotta make a change...
It's time for us as a people to start makin' some changes.
Let's change the way we eat, let's change the way we live
And let's change the way we treat each other.
You see the old way wasn't working so it's on us to do
What we gotta do, to survive.
And still i see no changes can't a brother get a little peace
It's war on the streets & the war in the middle east
Instead of war on poverty they got a war on drugs so the police
can bother me
And i ain't never did a crime i ain't have to do
But now i'm back with the blacks givin' it back to you
Don't let 'em jack you up, back you up, crack you up and pimp
slap you up
You gotta learn to hold ya own
They get jealous when they see ya with ya mobile phone
But tell the cops they can't touch this
I don't trust this when they try to rush i bust this
That's the sound of my tool you say it ain't cool my mama didn't
raise no fool
And as long as i stay black i gotta stay strapped & i never get
to lay back
'cause i always got to worry 'bout the pay backs
Some buck that i roughed up way back comin' back after all these
years
Rat-a-tat-tat-tat-tat that's the way it is uhh


6.Dear Mama

You are appreciated...

When i was young, me and my mama had beef
17 years old kicked out on tha streets
Though back in tha time, i never thought i'd see her face
Ain't a woman alive that can take my momma's place
Suspended from school, scared ta go home
I was a fool with tha big boys breaking all tha rules
Shed tears with my baby sister
Over tha years we wuz poorer than tha other little kids
And even though we had different daddies
Tha same drama when things went wrong we blamed mama
I reminised on tha stress i caused, it wuz hell
Hugg'en on my mama from a jail cell
And who'ed think in elementary, heeeey i'd see tha penitentiary
One day
Running from tha police, that's right
Momma catch me--put a whoop'en to my backside
And even as a crack fiend mama,
Ya always was a black queen mama
I finally understand for a woman
It ain't easy--trying ta raise a man
Ya always wuz commited, a poor single mother on welfare,
Tell me how ya did it
There's no way i can pay ya back
But tha plan is ta show ya that i understand.
You are appreciated......

Chorus
Laaaaady, don't cha know we luv ya
Sweeeet laaaady, place no one above ya
Sweeeet laaaady, don't cha know we luv ya

Ain't nobody tell us it wuz fair
No luv for my daddy, cause tha coward wuzn't there
He passed away and i didn't cry
Cause my anger, wouldn't let me feel for a stranger
They say i'm wrong and i'm heartless
But all along i wuz looking for a father--he wuz gone
I hung around with tha thug's and even though they sold drugs
They showed a young brother luv
I moved out and started really hang'in
I needed money of my own so i started slang'in
I ain't guilty cause, even though i sell rocks
It feels good, putting money in your mailbox
I love paying rent when tha rents due
I hope ya got tha diamond necklace that i sent to you
Cause when i wuz low, you was there for me
Ya never left me alone, cause ya cared for me
And i can see ya coming home after work late
Ya in tha kitchen trying ta fix us a hot plate
Just working with tha scraps you wuz given
And mama made miracles every thanksgiving
But now tha road got rough, your alone
Trying ta raise two bad kids on your own
And there's no way i can pay ya back
But my plan is ta show ya that i understand
You are appreciated.....

Chorus
Laaaaady, don't cha know we luv ya
Sweeeet laaaady, place no one above ya
Sweeeet laaaady, don't cha know we luv ya

Pour out some liquor and i remenise
Cause through tha drama, i can always depend on my mama
And when it seems that i'm hopeless
You say tha words that can get me back in focus
When i wuz sick as a little kid
Ta keep me happy theres no limit to tha things ya did
And all my childhood memories
Are full of all tha sweet things ya did for me
And even though i act craaaazy
I got ta thank tha lord that ya maaaade me
There are no words that can express how i feel
Ya never kept a secret, always stayed real
And i appreciate how ya raised me
And all tha extra love that ya gave me
I wish i could take tha pain away
If you can make it through tha night, there's a brighter day
Everything'll be alright if ya hold on
It's a struggle
Everyday gotta roll on
And there's no way i can pay ya back
But my plan is ta show ya that i understand
You are appreciated.......

Chorus
Laaaaady, don't cha know we luv ya
Sweeeet laaaady, place no one above ya
Sweeeet laaaady, don't cha know we luv ya, sweeeet laaaady


7.Got My Mind Made Up


You find an mc like me who's strong
We leavin' muthafucka's aborted
With no verbal support
When i command the microphone
I gets deadly as congo
With a bear and a snake and a panda, i'm on thou
Who can we stand, the more power of game
And make it possible for me to drop
A few to wrecks ya brain
Imagine to keep on wishin' upon a star
Finally realizing who the fuck you are
When i penetrate, it's been withstandin, faded,
Would it be the greatest mc of all time
When i created rhyme for the simple fact
My attempts to ride
Every time all night
I faced with the scars beyond
This beam or bar
For me to put down my guard
I'm faced with it, i'm a ride
Breakin' in gas with the six eight all day
In an out, with my pay
I'm soon to count the bodies...


So mandatory my elevation
My lyrics like orientation
So you can be more familiar
With tha nigga you facin'
We must be based on nothin'
Better than communication
Known to damage and highly flamable like gas stations
Sorry i left that ass waitin'
No more procrastination
Give up to fate, and get that ass shakin'
I'm bustin' and makin muthafucka's panic
Don't take ya life for granted
Put that ass in the dirt
You swear the bitch was planted
My lyrics motivate the planet
It's similar to rhythm nation
But thugged out, forgive me janet
Who's in control i'm acvtivatin yo souls
You know, the way the games get told
Yo two years ago, a friend of mine
Told me alazhay and chrystal
Blows your mind
Bear witness to the dopest fuckin' rhyme i wrote
Takin' off my coat, clearin' my throat


Tonight's tha night
I got my mind made up, come on...
Get in get in too
Let it ride
Tonight's tha night


Well i comes through with two packs
Of tha bomb pro-folax
For protection
So my fuckin sac won't collapse
Cause nowadays, shits evading the x-rays
Sending young muthafucka's to an early grave
I wonder, if my terrifying tactics of torturing mc's
Shows my hearts as cold as the tundra
Electryfing like thunder
I'm just too much
Rough and raw with that mutha fuckin' poisonous touch
I'm a
Mc with lyrics that's tha fuckin' bomb bay
Ya got dissed, that's before it's in cast like bob may
My rhymes
I leave a mark on ya mind
As the deadly vibes spread through ya head like sand pimes
There's no escape
Na i ain't blastin' i use my mental
To assassinate assassin's
For those askin'
Opposed to laughin'
Raw maniacal villian
Laughter enhances the chances of tha killin'
Why is that ?
Cause smilin' faces decieve
You best believe
To mc's, i'm the deadliest disease
My thoughts rip ya throat and make it hard to breathe
Ya whole camp's under seige, and i'm jason vorhees
In the heat of the night
Is when i defeat and ignite mic's
My verbal snipe, your vocabal site
I'm out tha cut, uncut
And raw with no clause fall
So all my rhymes hit and split tha bricks on the wall
Ya already have an idea about tha superior sphere
The raider rhyme creator on both sides of tha equator
I rock from here to there, to philly and back
To la on the spot where i rock and bust like straps
As your views get overshadowed when you come in contact
Beware, second, prepare to enter verbal combat


Fuck you losers, while you fake jacks i makes maneuvers
Like hitler
Stickin' up jews wit german missles
The mister mef tical from staton isle
Will be back after this message
Don't touch tha dial
Rarely do you see and mc out for justice
Got my gun powder and my musket
Blauw!
Mellons get swellin', i paint mental pictures like magellen
Half of my clan, repeat felons
Niggas best protect they joint tha nine nickel
Man i stay on point like icicles
Now who want to test tical
Then test tical
All up in ya muthafuckin' mouth
Head banga boogie
Catch me on tour with al doogie
Method man roll too tight, you can't fool me
Better take one and pass or that's that ass
Your vital statistics are low and fallin' fast
Johnny blaze out to get loot like johnny cash
Play a game of russian roulette and have a blast

A yo
Lyrical gas spittin' tha criminal tactics
Non-believers get my dick and genitals backwards
Let's face it, there's no replacement
Taste this, mad underground basement
Shit i'm laced with
Avalanche on ya whole camp when i'm spliffted
Funk doctor who spot bitch don't get it twisted
I got connects like federal express
To get the fresh package of bless
Tha dogs can't fetch
Got the clear spot from tha rear block
Two plus til every nigga tear drop
Men i fear not
Hold ya nose and blow out til ya ears pop
Since ya crew suit you to shift
Now you claim that you get's lot
With this underground cannibis
I'm dangerous like john the bomb analyst
The proceeds like key's
My degrees freeze cause secondtively like epmd lp's
Lick off a shot and hit ya fam by mistake
So i erase the whole front row at your wake
I plan my escape in case j or a snake bust it
I'm tha one pushin' a hurst in the first place
Confidence for you shaky ass folks
Pump for rockafeller for the day he got smoked
Choke, off this anecdope got you ope, zeros
By my lyrical billy dee forty-five colt

And i'm out for nine nickel

Ins tha rebel

West, list this, this, this


8.Hail Mary

Makaveli in this killuminati, all through your body.
The blows like a 12 guage shotty. uhh
Feel me.
God said he should send his one begotten son
To lead the wild in to the ways of the man.
Follow me.
Be my flesh, flesh and my flesh

Chorus

Come with me, hail mary,
Nigga run quick, see,
What do we have here now?
Do you wanna ride or die?
La, la la la, la, la, la la

I ain't a killa but don't push me
Revenge is like the sweetest joy next to gettin pussy
Picture paragraphs unloaded, wise words being quoted
Peep the weakness in the rap game and showed it
Bow down, pray to god hoping that he's listenin
Seein niggas comin for me, through my diamonds,
When they glistenin
Now pay attention,
Rest me please father,
I'm a ghost in these killin fields,
Hail mary catch me if i go,
Let's go deep inside the solitary mind of a mad man
Screams in the dark, evil lurks, enemies, see me flee
Activate my hate, let it break, to the flame
Set trip, empty out my clip,
Never stop to aim,
Some say the game is all corupted,
Fuck this shit, stuck,
Niggas lucky if we bust out this shit,
Plus momma told me never stop
Until i bust a nut,
Fuck the world if they can't adjust.
It's just as well
Hail mary.

Chorus 2x

Penitentiary is packed, with promise makers
Never realize the precious time the bitch niggas is wastin'
Institutionalized i live my life a product
Made to crumble,
Much to hardened for a smile,
Were to crazy to be humble
We ballin catch me father please
Cause i'm fallin, in the liquor store
Pass the hennessy i hear ya callin
Can i get some more?
Hail till i reach hell, i ain't scared.
Momma checkin in my bedroom i ain't there.
I got a head wit no screws in it
What can i do
One life to live but i got nothin to lose
Just me and you
On a one way trip to prison
Sellin drugs we all wrapped up in this livin
Life as thugs
To my homeboys in clinton max, doin there bid,
Raise hell to this real shit and feel this
When they turn out the lights
I'll be down in the dark
Thuggin eternal through my heart
Now hail mary nigga

Chorus 2x

Castro

They got an apb out on my thug family
Since the outlawz run these streets
Like these scandalous freaks
Our enemies die now, walk around half dead
Head down k blasted off hennessy and ty
Chronic mixed
Now i'm twisted,
Blisted and high
Visions of me thug livin
Gettin' me by forever live,
And i multiply survive by thugs
When i die they won't cry
Unless they comin with slugs.

Young noble

Peep the whole seen, and whatever goin on around me
Brain kinda cloudy
Smoked and out feelin rowdy
Ready wet the party up and
Whoever in that motherfucka
Nasty new street slugger
My heat seeks suckas on a regula
Mashin in a stolen black ack integera
Cock back sixty seconds
Till the draw that's when i deadin ya
Feet first ya gotta a nice gat but my heat's worse
From a thug to preachin preachin church
I gave you love now you eatin dirt
Needin work and
I ain't the nigga to put you up on, cause word in bond
When i was broke i had to hustle till dawn
That's when sun came up
There's only one way up, hold ya head stay up
To all my nigga's
Get ya pay and wait up

Castro

If it's on then it's on,
We rate b-breaks
Outlaws on a paper chase,
Can you relate
To this shit i don't got,
Be the shit i gotta take
Dealin wit fate
Hoping god don't close the gate.

Repeat

Chorus and verse

We've been traveling on this wavy road,
Long time life can be a heavy load
But we ride, ride it like a bullet
Hail mary, hail mary

We won't worry everything with corine
We free like the bird in the tree
We won't worry everything with corine
Yes we free like the bird in the tree
We runnin from the penitentiary
This is the time for reliberty
Hail mary, hail mary

Westside, outlawz, makaveli tha don, solo, killuminati, the 7
dayz


9.Heartz Of Men

Ahh, suge what did i tell you nigga,
When i come out of jail what was i gonna do
I was gonna start diggin' into these niggas chest, right
Watch this, hey quik let me see them binoculars, nigga
Them binoculars

Ha ha ha ha, yah nigga time to ride
Grab your bullet proof vest nigga
Cause its gonna be a long one
Now me and quik gonna tell you niggas
How its like on this side
The real side
Now on this ride its gonna be some real mutha-fuckas
And there is gonna be some pussys
Now the real niggas are gonna be the ones with
Money and bitches
The pussys are gonna be the niggas
On the floor bleeding
Now everybody keep your eyes on the prize
Cause the ride gets tricky
See you got some niggas on your side
That say they your friends but in real life they your enemies
And then you got some mutha-fuckas that say they your enemies
But in real life they eyes is on your money
See the enemies say the truth
But in real life those niggas will be the snitches
Its a dirty game y'all
Y'all got ta be careful about who you fuck with
And who you don't fuck with
Cause the shit get wild y'all
Keep your mind on your riches, baby
Keep your mind on your riches

9-1-1 its a emergency cowards tried to murder me
From the hood to the 'burbs, everyone of you niggas heard of me
Shit i'm legendary niggas scary and paralyzed
Nothing more i despise than a liar and cowards die
My mama told me when i was to see
Just a vicious mutha fucker while these devils left me free
I proceed to make them shiver when i deliver
Criminal lyrics from a world wide mob figure
Thug niggas from everywhere mr. makaveli
Niggas is waiting for some thug shit thats what they tell me
So many rumors but i'm infinite immortal outlaw
Switching up on you ordinary bitches
Like the south bore you bit less
And every breath i breathe untill the moment i'm deceased
Will be another moment ballin' as a g
I rip the crowd then i start again
Internally i live in sin untill the moment
That they let me breathe again
The heartz of men

The heartz of men

My lyrical verge with so much pain that
To some niggas it hurts my guns bust
And if you ain't one of us it gets worse
Bitch niggas get their eyes swoll and fly mode
I'm an homicidal outlaw and five-o get your lights on
Fight long, tonights gonna be a fucking fight so we might roll
My own homies saying i'm heart less
But i'm a g to this 'til the day i'm gone thats regardless
Drive-by and niggas bow down
I thought i'd rot in jail, paid bail, well niggas out now
Throw up your hands if your thugged out
First nigga act up first nigga getting drugged out
I can be a villian if yah let me
I'll mutha fuck yah if yah too upset me
Tell the cops to come and get me
Rip the crowd like a phone number
Start again, don't have no mutha fuckin' friends nigga
Look inside the heartz of men

In the heartz of men
In the heartz of men

To all me niggas engaged in making money in the fifty states
Keep your mind on your chips and fuck a punk bitch
No longer living in fear my pistol close in hand
Convinced this is my year like i'm the chosen man
Give me my money and label me as a don
If niggas is having problems smoke fire and bomb them
I died and came back,
I hustle with these lyrics as if its a game of crack
Thugishness is in my spirit
I'm lost and not knowing scar'd up but still flowing
Energized and still going
Uhh, can it be fate that makes a sick mutha fucka break
On these jealous ass coward cuz they evil and fake
What will it take?
Give me that bass line i'm feeling bombed
Deathrow baby don't be alarmed
The homie quik gave a nigga beat and let me start again
Represent cause i've been sent
The heartz of men

Tryin' to come up off of me
You and the clouds hoping
Smoking dope

Niggas think they learned to fly
But they burn mutha-fucka you deserve to die
Talking about you getting money
But its funny to me
All you niggas living bummy
While you fucking with me?
I'm a self made millioniare
Thug livin', out of prison
Biggie remember when i use to let you sleep on the couch
And beg the bitch to let you sleep on the house
Now its all about versace
You copied my style
Five shots couldn't drop me
I took it and smiled
Now i'm back to set the record straight
With my a-k
I'm still the thug that you love to hate
Mutha-fucka i'll hit 'em up

Crash and mash through brooklyn
With my click looting, shooting, and polluting your block
With fifteen shot,
Cocked glock to your knot
Outlaw mafia click moving up another knotch
And all your fake ass east coast props
Brainstormed and locked

You's a b-writer
Pac style taker
I'll tell you to face, you ain't nothing shit but a faker
Soften the alize with a chaser
Bout to get murdered for the paper
Idi amin approach the scene of the caper
Toting smoke, we ain't no mutha-fuckin' joke
Thug life, niggas better be known
Be approaching
In the wide open, gun smoking
No need for hoping
It's a battle lost
I gottem crossed as soon as the funk is boping off
Nigga, i hit 'em up

Now you tell me who won
They don't wanna see us
Whole junior mafia click
Dressing up to be us
How the fuck they gonna be the mob?
When we always on out job
We millionaire's
Killing ain't fair
But somebody got to do it

You wanna fuck with us
You little young ass mutha-fuckas
Don't one of you niggas got sickle-cell or something
You fucking with me, nigga ?
You fuck around and catch a siezure or a heart-attack
You better back the fuck up
Before you get smacked the fuck up
This is how we do it on our side

Bring it.
But we ain't singing,
We bringing drama
Fuck you and your mother fucking mama.

With people tryin' ta sue me

How long will they mourn me
Yeah! this for my nigga kato
It's still on nigga
Thug life, thugs for life
Ha ha yeah, how long will they mourn me
Yeah nigga
2pac in this muthafucka

(tupac)

All my homies drinking liquor
Tears in everybody's eyes
Niggas cried to mourn a homies homicide
But i can't cry
Instead i'm just a shoulder
Damn, why they take another soldier
I load my clip before my eyes blurry, don't worry
I'll get them suckas back before your buried (shit)
Retaliate and pull a 187
Do real niggas get to go to heaven ?
How long will they mourn me, bury me a muthafuckin 'g'
Bitch don't wanna die
Then don't fuck with me
It's kinda hard to be optimistic
When your homies lying dead on the pavement twisted
Y'all don't hear me doe, i'm trying hard to make amends
But i'm losing all my muthafuckin friends (damn)
They should've shot me when i was born
Now i'm trapped in the muthafuckin' storm
How long will they mourn me ?

(chorus)

I wish it would have been another
How long will they mourn me
How long will they mourn my brother
(got them niggas all dead and shit)
How long will they mourn me
I wish it would have been another
(nate dogg)
How long will they mourn me
How long will they mourn my brother
(gotta keep this shit goin' on, yo syke)

(syke)

How long will they mourn me
Every muthafuckin' day homie
You stayed down when tha other niggas didn't know me
From my heart to the trigga you my fuckin' nigga
And things won't be the same without ya nigga
I remember kickin' back, you wanted to lack
And goin' half on a muthafuckin' hundred sack
Smokin' blunt after blunt and steady drinkin'
Hung around so much, you knew what i was thinkin'
Tell me lord, why you take big kato ?
So confused not knowing which way to go
I'm goin crazy and runnin' out of fuckin' time
I can't take it, i'm losin' my fuckin' mind
So day after day
Ride after ride
We'll hook up on the other side
Watch over your family and your newborn
Till we meet again homie
How long will they mourn me ?

(chorus)

I wish it would have been another
(yo kato)
How long will they mourn me
(it's still on nigga)
How long will they mourn my brother
How long will they mourn me
I wish it would have been another
(yeah)
How long will they mourn me
How long will they mourn my brother
(rated r, double jeopardy, mack 10)

(rated r)

Damn a nigga tired of feeling sad
I'm tired of putting in work
I'm tired of cryin while watching my homies leave the earth
I know soon one day i'll be in the dirt
And my peoples'll be mournin'
When they get a call from the coroner
All niggas can say is that's fucked up
And get tossed up
Reminiscing how we grew up (my nigga)
Rest and love to my nigga kato
See you in the crossroads real soon
For now let me pour out some brew
I'll be always thinkin' of ya homie
Rest in peace
How long will they mourn me ?

Ya know life's a fuckin' trip
And everybody gotta go
But why the fuck it have to be my nigga kato
Another nigga fell victim to the chrome
It's enough to make you crazy
It's fuckin' with my dome
Ya only live once on this earth
A nigga had it bad, since the day of my mutahfuckin' birth
But niggas say they down and they always be my homie
But when a nigga gone
How long will ya mourn me ?

(chorus)

Yeah!
I wish it would have been another
(mack 10 in this muthafucka)
Yeah, how long will ya mourn me
How long will ya mourn my bother
(thug life boy, nate blowin' that shit,
Nate dogg do that shit nigga)
I wish it would have been another
Yeah! how long will ya mourn me
How long will ya mourn my brother
(this for my nigga kato and all his kids)
How long will ya mourn me
I wish it would have been another
How long will ya mourn my brother


13.I Ain't Mad At Cha

Change... shit,
I guess change is good for any of us
Whatever it takes
For any of ya'll niggas to get up out tha hood
Shit, i'm with ya
I ain't mad at cha
Got nothin' but love for ya
Do your thing boy

Yeah, all the homies that i ain't talked to in awhile
I'm a send this out to y'all
Know what i mean ?
Cuz, i ain't mad at cha
Heard all of y'all
Tearing up shit out there
Kickin' up dust
Givin' a mutha-fuck
Yeah, niggas
Cuz, i ain't mad at cha

Now, we were once two niggas of the same kind
Quick to holla at a hoochie with the same line
You were just a little smaller
But you still rolled
And hit the hood stroll
Remember when ya had a jerry curl ?
Didn't quite learn
On the block
With ya glock
Trippin' of sherm
Collect calls to the tip
Sayin' how ya changed
Oh you a muslim now
No more dope game
Heard you might be coming home
Just got bail
Wanna go to the mosque
Don't wanna chase tail
I seems i lost my little homie
He's a changed man
Hit the penn
Now, no sinnin' is the game plan
When i talk about money
All you see is the struggle
When i tell ya, i'm livin' large
You tell me, its trouble
Congratulation on the wedding
I hope your wife know
She got a playa for life
And that's no bullshitin'
I know we grew apart
You probably don't remember
I usta fiend for your sister
But never went up in her
And i can see us after school
We'd bomb on the first mutha-fucka
With tha wrong shit on
And now, the whole shits changed
And we don't even kick it
Got a big money scheme
And you ain't even with it
Knew in my heart
You were the same mutha-fucka bad
Go toe to toe when it's time to roll
You got a brothas back
And i can't even trip
Cause i'm just laughin' at ya
You tryin' hard to maintain
And go ahead
Cuz, i ain't mad at cha

Chorus -- danny boy
Oooowwwwww
I ain't mad at cha
(i ain't mad at cha)
I ain't mad at cha

We used to be like distant couzins
Fightin', playin' dozins
Whole nieghborhood buzzin'
Knowin' that we was wasn't
Usta catch us on the roof
Or behind the stairs
I'm gettin' blitz
Reminiscin'
On all the time we shared
Beside
Bumpin' n' grindin'
Was nothin' on our mind
In time we learned
To live a life of crime
Rewind us back
To a time
Was much to young, to know
I caught a felony
Lovin' the way the guns blow
And even thou we seperated
You said that you wait
Don't give nobody no coochie
While i'll be locked up state
I kiss my mama good bye
Wipe, the tears from her lonely eyes
Said, that i'll return
But i gotta fight
The bitch that ride
Don't shed a tear
Cuz, mama i ain't happy here
I'm through trails
And no more smiles
For a couple a years
They got me goin' mad
I'm knocking brothas on their backs
In my cell
Thinkin' hell
I know one day i'll be back
As soon as i touch down
I told my girl i'll be there
So prepare
To get fucked down
The homies wanna kick it
But i'm just laughin' at ya
Cuz, you is a down ass bitch
And i ain't mad at cha

Chorus -- danny boy
I ain't mad at cha
(i ain't mad at cha)
I ain't mad at cha
(but your a down ass bitch, and i ain't mad at cha)

Well guess who's moving up ?
This niggas ballin' now
Bitches be callin' to get it
Hookers keep fallin' down
He went from nothin' to alot
Ten karets the spot
He went from a nobody nigga
To the big man on the block
He's mister local celebrity
Addicted to move a key
Most hated by enemy
Escaping the luxury
See, first you was our nigga
But you made it
So the choice is made
Now we gotta slay you
While you faded
In the younger days
So full of pain while the weapons blaze
Gettin' so high off the bomb
Hopin' we can make it
To the better dayz
Cuz, crime pays
And in time
You'll find a rhyme
That'll blaze you'll feel the fire
From the niggas in my younger dayz
So many changed on me
So many tried to plot
That i keep a glock
Beside my haaand
When will it stop ?
'till god return me to my essence
Cuz, even as a adolecents
I refuse to be a convalescent
So many questions,
And they ask me if i'm still down
I moved up out of the ghetto
So i ain't real now ?
They got so much to say
But i'm just laughin' at ya
You niggas just don't know
But i ain't mad at cha

Chorus -- danny boy
Oooowwwwww
I ain't mad at cha
(i ain't mad at cha)
I ain't mad at cha
(hell naw, i ain't mad at cha)
I ain't mad at cha
(and i ain't mad at cha)
I ain't mad at cha
(i ain't mad at cha)
I ain't mad at cha
Nooooo
I ain't mad at chaaaaahhhhh


14.I Get Around

(i get around)

Aww, yeah...
(round and round)
(round it go)
I get around...
Still clown with tha underground
When we come around

(round and round)
(round it go)
Stronger than ever

Back to get wreck,
All respect to those who break they neck
To keep they hos in check
'cuz, hos, they sweat a brotha majorly and i don't know why,
your girl keeps paging me.
She tell me that she needs me
Cries when she leaves me
And every time she sees me, she squeeze me.
Lady take it easy...
Hate to sound sleazy, but tease me,
I don't want it if it's that easy.
Ehh yo bus' it, baby got a problem saying bye bye
Just another hazard of a fly guy.
You ask why, it don't matter
My pockets got fatter,
Now everybody's looking for the ladder.
And ain't no need in be greedy,
If you wanna see me
Try a beeper number baby when you need me
And i'll be there in a jiffy
Don't be picky. just be happy with this quicky
But when you learn, you can't tie me down
Baby doll, check it out
I get around

Chorus
Whatcha mean, ya don't know...

(round and round)
(round it go)
I get around

The underground just don't stop for hoes

I get around
(round and round)
(round it go)
I get around

Hey yo shock, let them hoes know...

Now you can tell from my everday fits, i ain't rich
So cease and desist with them tricks (tricks)
I'm just another black man caught up in the mix (mix)
Trying to make a dollar out of fifteen cents
(a dime and a nickel)
Just 'cuz i'm a freak
Don't mean that we could hit the sheets
Baby, i can see, that you don't recognize me.
I'm shock-g, the one who put the satin on your panties
Never knew a hooker that could sham me.

I get around.

What's up love, how you doin'? (alright)
Well i've been hangin' sangin, tryin' to do my thang
Oh, you heard that i was bangin'
Your home girl you went to school with
That's cool, but did she tell you about her sister
And your cousin thought i wasn't
See, weekends were made for michelob
But it's a monday, my day,
So just let me hit it, yo
And don't mistake my statement for a clown
We can keep in the down low long as you know
That i get around.

Chorus
(round and round)
(round it go)

2pacalypse now, don't stop for hoes
I get around

(round and round)
(round it go)

(round and round...)
Why i ain't called you (hahaha.. please)

Fingertips on the hip as i dip
Gotta get a tight grip, don't slip
Loose lips, sank ships, it's a trip,
I love the way she licks her lips
See me jockin',
Put a little twist in her hips
'cuz i'm watchin'
Conversations on the phone
'til the break of dawn,
Now we all alone, why the lights on?
Turn 'em off, time to set it off
Get you wet 'n' soft,
Something's on your mind, let it off.
You don't know me,
You just met me,
You won't let me,
Well if i couldn't have it, (silly rabbit)
Why you sweatin' me?
It's a lot of real g's doin' time
'cuz a groupy bit the trooper told a lie.
You picked the wrong guy,
Baby if you're too fly
You need to hit the door,
Search for a new guy.
'cuz i only got one night in town,
Break down or be clowned,
Baby doll are you down?
I get around

Chorus
(round and round)
(round it go)
(round and round)
(round it go)

(repeated till end of song)


15.Keep Ya Head Up

Little something for my god son elija and a little girl named
koreem

Some say tha blacker tha berry
Tha sweeter tha juice
I say, tha darker tha flesh and tha deeper tha roots
I give a hollar to my sisters on welfare
Tupac cares, but don't nobody else care
I know they like ta beat ya down a lot
And when ya come around tha block brothers clown a lot
But please don't cry, dry ya eyes
Never let up
Forgive but don't forget girl keep ya head up
And when he tells you you ain't nothin
Don't believe him
And if he can't learn ta love ya, you should leave him
Cuz sister you don't need him
I ain't tryin ta gash up, but i just callem how i see 'em
Ya know what makes me unhappy
When brothers make babies
And leave a young mother ta be a pappy
And since we all came from a woman
Got our name from a woman
And out game from a woman
I wonder why we take from our women
Why we rape our women
Do we hate our women ?
I think it's time ta kill for our women
Time ta heal our women
Be real to our women
And if we don't
We'll have a race of babies
That hate tha ladies that make tha babies
And since a man can't make one
He has no right ta tell a woman when and where ta create one
So will tha real men get up
I know your fed up ladies
But keep ya head up

Chorus
Eeewww child things are gonna get easier
Eeewww child things are gonna get brighter

Eeewww child things are gonna get easier
Eeewww child things are gonna get brighter

I remember marvin gay, usta sing ta me
He had me feelin like black was tha thing ta be
And suddenly tha ghetto didn't seem so tuff
I thought we had it rough, we always had enough
I often huffed and puffed about my curfew and broke tha rules
Ran with tha local crew and had a smoke or two
And realize momma really paid tha price
She nearly gave her life, ta raise me right
And all i had ta give her was my pipe dreams
Of how i'd rock tha mic and make it to tha big screen
I'm tryin ta make a dollar out of fifteen cents
It's hard ta be legit and still pay tha rent
And in tha end it seems i'm headin for tha penn
I try and find my friends, but they're blowin in tha wind
Last night my buddy lost his whole family
It's gonna take tha man in me
Ta conquer this insanity
It seems tha rain will never let up
I try ta keep my head up and still keep from getting wet up
You know it's funny when it rains it pours
They got money for wars, but can't feed tha poor
Sad there ain't no hope for tha youth and tha truth is
There ain't no hope for tha future
And then they wonder why we crazy
I blame my mother, for turning my brother into a crack baby
We ain't meant ta survive, cause it's a setup
And even though ya fed up
Ya got ta keep ya head up


16.Life Goes On

Chorus
How many brothas fell victim to tha streetz
Rest in peace young nigga
There's a heaven for a 'g'
Be a lie
If i told ya that i never thought of death
My niggas
We tha last ones left
But life goes on.....

How many brothas fell victim to tha streetz
Rest in peace young nigga
There's a heaven for a 'g'
Be a lie
If i told ya that i never thought of death
My niggas
We tha last ones left
But life goes on....

As i bail through tha empty halls
Breath stinkin'
In my draws
Ring, ring, ring
Quiet y'all
Incoming call
Plus this my homie from high school
He's getting by
It's time to worry
Another brotha
Nobody cry
Life as a baller
Alchol and booty calls
We usta do them as adolecents
Do you recall ?
Raised as g's
Loc'ed out and blazed the weed
Get on tha roof
Let's get smoked out
And blaze with me
2' in tha morning
And we still high assed out
Screamin' 'thug till i die'
Before i passed out
But now that your gone
I'm in tha zone
Thinkin'
'i don't wanna die all alone'
But now ya gone
And all i got left are stinkin' memories
I love them niggas to death
I'm drinkin' hennessy
While tryin' ta make it last
I drink a 5th for that ass
When you pass...
Cause life goes on

Chorus
How many brothas fell victim to tha streetz
Rest in peace young nigga
There's a heaven for a 'g'
Be a lie
If i told ya that i never thought of death
My niggas
We tha last ones left
But life goes on....

How many brothas fell victims to tha streetz
Rest in peace young nigga
There's a heaven for a 'g'
Be a lie
If i told ya that i never thought of death
My niggas
We tha last ones left
And life goes on....

Yeah nigga
I got tha word as hell
Ya blew trial and tha judge gave you
25 with an l
Time to prepare to do fair time
Won't see parole
Imagine life as a convict
That's getten' old
Plus with tha drama
We're lookin out for your babies mama
Taken risks, while keepin' cheap tricks from gettin on her...
Life in tha hood...
Is all good for nobody
Remember gamin' on dumb hoties at chill parties
Me and you
No true a two
While schemeing on hits
And gettin tricks
That maybe we can slide into
But now you burried
Rest nigga
Cause i ain't worried
Eyes bluried
Sayin' goodbye at the cemetary
Tho' memories fade
I got your name tated on my arm
So we both ball till' my dying days
Before i say goodbye
Kato, we're meant to rest in peace
Thug till i die

Chorus
How many brothas fell victim to tha streetz
Rest in peace young nigga
There's a heaven for a 'g'
Be a lie
If i told ya that i never thought of death
My nigga
We tha last ones left
And life goes on....

How many brothas fell victim to tha streetz
Rest in peace young nigga
There's a heaven for a 'g'
Be a lie
If i told ya that i never thought of death
My niggas
We tha last ones left
Cause life goes on....

Bury me smilin'
With g's in my pocket
Have a party at my funeral
Let every rapper rock it
Let tha hoes that i usta know
From way before
Kiss me from my head to my toe
Give me a paper and a pen
So i can write about my life of sin
A couple bottles of gin
Incase i don't get in
Tell all my people i'm a ridah
Nobody cries when we die
We outlaws
Let me ride
Until i get free
I live my life in tha fast lane
Got police chasen me
To my niggas from old blocks
From old crews
Niggas that guided me through
Back in tha old school
Pour out some liquor
Have a toast for tha homies
See we both gotta die
But ya chose to go before me
And brothas miss ya while you're gone
You left your nigga on his own
How long we mourn
Life goes on...

Chorus - repeats
How many brothas fell victim to tha streetz
Rest in peace young nigga
There's a heaven for a 'g'
Be a lie
If i told ya that i never thought of death
My niggas
We tha last ones left
But life goes on....

(sung overtop repeating chorus)

Life goes on homie
Gone on, cause they passed away
Niggas doin' life
Niggas doin' 50 and 60 years and shit
I feel ya nigga, trust me
I feel ya
You know what i mean
Last year
We poured out liquor for ya
This year nigga, life goes on
We're gonna clock now
Get money
Evade bitches
Evade tricks
Give players plenty space
And basicaly just represent for you baby
Next time you see your niggas
Your gonna be on top nigga
Their gonna be like,
'goddamn, them niggas came up'
That's right baby
Life goes on....
And we up out this bitch
Hey kato, mental
Y'all niggas make sure it's popin' when we get up there
Don't front.


17.Me Against The World

It's just me against tha world

Ooohhhhh ooohhhhh

Just me against tha world baby

Ohhhhhh ohhhhhh

I got nothin' ta lose
It's just me against tha world

Ohhhhh

Stuck in tha game
Me against tha world baby

Can you picture my prophecy?
Stress in tha city
Tha cops is hot for me
Tha projects is full of bullets
Tha bodies is droppin'
There ain't no stoppin me
Constantly moven while maken millions
Witnessin' killins
Leavin dead bodies in abandoned buildings
Caries tha children
Cause they're illin'
Addicted to killin'
A near appeal from tha cap pealin'
What i'm feelin'
But will they last or be blasted
Hard headed bastard
Maybe he'll listen in his casket
Tha aftermath
More bodies being buried
I'm losen my homies in a hurry
They're relocating to tha cemetary
Got me worried
Stressin'
My visions bluried
Tha question is will i live
No one in tha world loves me
I'm headed for danger
Don't trust strangers
Put one in tha chamber
Whatever i'm feelin' is anger
Don't wanna make excuses
Cause this is how it is
What's tha use
Unless we're shootin'
No one notices tha youth
It's just me against tha world baby

Chorus
Ooohhhhh
Me against tha world
It's just me against tha world
Ooohhhhh

It's just me against tha world
Me against tha world
Cause it's just me against tha world baby

Me against tha world

Ooohhhh yeeah

I got nothin' ta lose
It's just me against tha world baby

I got nothin' ta lose


Could somebody help me?
I'm out here all by myself
Seeing ladies in stores
Baby capones
Livin wealthy
Pictures of my birth
On tha surface what i'm dreamin'
Seein' daddy seein'
Full of crooked deamons
Already crazy and screamin'
I guess them nightmares as a child
Had me scared
But left me prepared
For awhile
Is there another route?
For crooked outlaws
That are in a villian of young thugs

Everday is more death
Plus i'm more rollin
I'm seein more beatens
For me
To proceed with fear
Scheme on schemeing
Amd leavin' their peeps grievin'
Cause ain't no bucks ta stack up
My nuts is backed up
I'm about ta act up
Go load tha mack up
Now watch me klack up
Try makin' fat cuts
But yo it ain't workin
And evils lurken
I can see him smirken
When i gets tha bourbon
So what
Go put some work in
And make my mail
Makin' sells
Risken 25 with a 'l'
But oh well

Chorus
Me against tha world
With nothin' ta lose
It's just me against tha world

Ooohhhh

It's just me against tha world baby
Me against tha world
I got nothin' ta lose
It's just me against tha world

Heeeyyy

It's just me against tha world baby

With nothin ta lose
It's just me against tha world baby
Me against tha world

Me against tha world

I got nothin' ta lose
It's just me against tha world baby

Heeeyyy


With all this extra stressin'
Tha question i wonder is after death
I feel my last breath
When will i finaly get to rest from this supression
They punish tha people that's askin questions
And those that possess
Steal from tha ones without possesions
Tha message i stress
To make it stop
Study your lessons
Don't settle for less
Even tha genius asks questions
Be gratifull for blessins
Don't ever change
Keep your essense
Tha powers in tha people and tha politics we address
Always do your best
Don't let this pressure make ya panic
And when ya get stranded
And things don't go tha way ya planed it
Dreaming of richs
In a position of makin' a difference
Polititions and hipocrites
They don't wanna listen
If i'm insane
Then tha fame ain't about ta change
It wasn't nothin' like tha game
It's just me against tha world

Chorus
Me against tha world
Nothin ta lose
It's just me against tha world baby

Me against tha world
Got me stuck in tha game
It's just me against tha world
Ooohhhh

It's just me against tha world baby
Hahaha
Me against tha world
That's right...
I know it seem hard someties, but uh...
Remember one thing
Through every dark night
There's a bright day after that
So no matter how hard it get
Stick ya chest out
Keep ya head up
And handle it

Me against tha world
Me against tha world
Me against tha world
Fades...


18.Picture Me Rollin'

Yeah, clear enough for ya.
Why niggas look mad.
Y'all supposed to be happy i'm free.
Y'all look like you wanted me to stay in jail
Old busters.

Picture me rollin' in my 500 benz.
I got no love for these niggas,
There's no need to be friends.
They got me under survailance.
That's what somebody be tellin' me.
Known as don't be insulted(?).
But i ain't the one tellin'.
Don't want to be another number.
I got a fuckin' gang of weed to keep from goin under.
The fedarones(?) wanna see me dead.
Niggas put prices on my head.
Now i got 2 rottwillers by me bed.
I feed em lead.
Now on release.
How will i live?
Will god forgive me for all the dirt a nigga did?
To feed kids.
One life to live.
It's so hard to be positive
When niggas shootin at your crib.
Mama, i'm still thuggin'
The world is a war zone.
My homies is inmates
And most of them dead grown
Full grown, finally a man
Just sceamin on ways to put some green inside the palms
Of my empty hands.
Just picture me rollin'.
Flossin a benz on rims that isn't stolen.
My dreams is scensored.
My hopes are gone.
I'm like a fiend that finally see when all the dope is gone.
My nerves is wrecked.
Heart beatin' and my hands is swollen.
Thinkin of the g's i'll be holdin.
Picture me rollin.
Can you see me now
Move to the side a little bit so you can get a clear picture
Can you see it?
Pictue me rollin.
Yeah nigga
Eh, but picture how my nigga sak duke do it.
Guess who's back?

I got keys comin from overseas.
Cost a nigga 200 g's.
I'm a street comando.
Nino for example.
This lavish lifestyle is hard to handle.
So i got to floss cuz i'm rollin like a boss playa.
Thug granted to be a women layer
So mny playa haters, imitaters steady swangin.
Make me wanna start bank bangin.
So i'm caught up in the game.
Let's go change.
Packin 40 glocks.
Contain or rearrange.
All that jealousy and envy comin from my enemies
While i'm sippin on green leaves(?)
In front of black lexuses, chevies on the roam.
96 big bodies sittin on chrome
As we head up out the zone,
Stone facing is on.
Looking at mine but don't look too long.
I'm livin a dream with triple beams and my pockets bulgin.
It's hard to imagine.
Picture me rollin.

I gots to get the fuck up in.
Goin to lay a caper.
Cuz a nigga straight sufferin from lack of havin paper.
My bitch fin to have a bastard, see?
So i need to hit a lick, drastically.
I see some bald head ass niggas and they slippin in my spot
And, uh, diggin in the pots.
Check in the park, pac.

We caught em sleepin.
We didn't think you niggas creepin.
This how we do it every weekend
And i dump for madness(?)
It's time to count the profit.
Cpo, we got the bomb spot.
Nigga, time to clock it.
I get the liquor and you could get the females.
This crooked shit can reinflict and get the street sales.

Move smooth as a mother fucker, me and my 9.
I'm cool as a mother fucker, i'm a get mine.
Now we satisfied.
Got the pockets on swollen.
Boss hog and this pac nigga.
Picture us rollin.

Heh, heh, heh.
Y'all ready for me?
Picture me rollin roll call.
You know there's some mother fuckers out there
I just could not forget about.
I wanna make sure they can see me.
Number one on my list: clinton correctional faciluties,
All you bitch asses.
Can you niggas see me from there?
Ballin on all y'all punk ass.
Heh, ha ha!
Picture me rollin, baby.

19.So Many Tears

I shall fear no man, but god
Though i walk through tha valley of death
I shed so many tears
Please god walk with me...

Back in elementary, i thrived on misery
Left me alone i grew up amongst a dying breed
As my mind couldn't find a place ta rest
Untill i got that thug life planted on my chest
Tell me can ya feel me ?
I'm not liven in tha past, ya wanna last
Be tha first ta blast, remember kato
No longer with us he's deseased
Call on tha sirens, i seem him murdered in tha streets
Now rest in peace
Is there heaven for a 'g' ?
Remember me, so many homies in tha cemetary
Shed so many tears

Chorus
Lord
I suffer through tha years
And shed so many tears
Lord
I lost so many peers, shed so many tears

Now that i'm strugglin' in this business
By any means, label me greedy gettin green
But seldom seen
And fuck tha world cuz i'm cursed
I'm havin visions of leaven here in a hurse
God can ya feel me ?
Take me away from all tha pressure and all tha pain
Show me some happiness again
I'm goin' blind
I spend my time in this cell, ain't livin' well
I know my destiny is hell, where did i fail ?
My life is in denial
And when i die, babtised in eternal fire
Shed so many tears...

Chorus
Lord
I suffer through tha years
And shed so many tears
Lord
I lost so many peers, shed so many tears

Now i'm lost and i'm weary
So many tears, i'm suicidal, so don't stand near me
My every move is a calculated step
Ta bring me closer
To embrace an early death now there's nothing left
There was no mercy on tha streets
I couldn't rest
I'm barely standing, bout to go to pieces, screaming peace
And though my soul was deleted, i couldn't see it
I had my mind full of deamons tryin' ta break free
They planted seeds and they hatched sparking tha flame
In my brain like a match, such a dirty game
No memories, just misery
Painting a picture of my enemies killing me in my sleep
Will i survive till' tha morning ta see tha sun
Please lord forgive me for my sins
Cause here i come...

Chorus
Lord
I suffer through tha years
And shed so many tears
Lord
I lost so many peers, shed so many tears

Lord knows i've tried, been a witness ta homicide
Drive-bys taken lives, little kids die
Wonder why as i walk by
Broken hearted as i glance at tha chaulk line, gettin' high
This ain't tha life for me
I wanna change
But ain't no future right for me
I'm stuck in tha game
I'm trapped inside a maze
See this tangaray influenced me ta gettin crazy
Disillusioned lately
I've been really wanting babies
So i could see a part of me that wasn't always shady
Don't trust my lady
Cause she's a product of this poison, i'm hearen noises
Think she's fucken with my boys, can't take no more
I'm fallin' to tha floor
Beggin' for tha lord ta let me in heavens door
I shed so many tears...

Chorus
Lord
I lost so many peers
And shed so many tears
I lost so many peers, shed so many tears
Fades...
I suffered through tha years and shed so many tears

21.Toss It Up

Verse one

Lord have mercy, father help us all
Since you supplied your phone number, i can't help but call
Time for action, conversatin, we relaxin, kickin back
Got ya curious about thug passion, now picture that
Tongue kissin, hand full of hair, look in my eyes
Time to make the bed rock, baby look how it rise
Me and you movin in the nude, do it in the living room
Sweatin up the sheets, it's the thug in me
I be the ? when i tongue kiss your neck,
I go a long way to get you, what do you expect
Late night, hit the highway, drop the top
I pull over, gettin busy in the parking lot
Picture-look it how i lick your hips and glide
Kiss you soft on your stomach, push my love inside
Got ya lost in a love zone, stuck in the lust
I got the bedroom shakin back, breakin when we're tossin' it up

Verse two

What's your phone number, i get around
Cali love to my true thugs, picture me now
Still down for that death row sound, searchin for pay days
No longer dre day, arive derche
Long and forgotten, plottin for plottin-child's play
Check your sexuality, as fruity as this alize
Quick to jump ship, punk trick, what a dumb move
Cross death row, now who you gonna run to
Like those other suckers cuz you similiar
Pretendin to be hard-oh my god-check your temperature
Screamin compton, but you can't return, you ain't heard
Brothas pissed cuz you switched and escaped to the burbs
Mob on to this new era, cuz we untouchable
Still can't believe you got pac rushin, uppin you
Bless the real, all the rest get killed, who can you trust
Only time reveals...toss it up!

2pac commentary...


22.To Live And Die In La

Intro:

Dominique:what do you feel when you hear a record like tupac's
new one?

Man:i love tupac's new record

Dominique: right, but don't you feel like that creates tension
between east and west?

Dominique: he's talking about killing people, i had sex with
your wife
And not in those words, but he's talking about i wanna see you
deceased.

Makaveli:

No doubt
To live and die in la
California - don't care what you say about los angeles
Still the only place for me it never rains

To live and die in la
Where everyday we try a fatten' our pockets
Us niggaz hustle for the cash so it's hard to knock it
Everybody got their own thang currency chasin'
World wide through the hard times worrying faces
Shed tears as we bury niggaz close to heart
What was a friend now a ghost in the dark
Cold hearted bout it, nigga got smoked by a fiend
Tryin to floss on em'
Blind to a broken man's dream

A hard lesson--court cases--keep em guessin'
Plea bargain ain't an option now--so i'm stressin'

Cost me more to be free than a life in the penn
Making money off of cuss words--writin' again
Learn how to think ahead--so i fight with my pen
Late night down sunset like in a sin
What's the worst they could do to a nigga
Get me lost in hell--to live and die in la
On bail--my angels sing...

Chorus:

To live and die in la, it's the place to be
You've got to be there to know it
Where everybody wanna see
To live and die in la, it's the place to be
You've got to be there to know it
Everybody wanna see

It's the cities of angels and constant danger
South central la--can't get no stranger
Full of drama like a soap opera
On the curb watching the ghetto bird helicopters
I observe--so many niggaz
Gettin 3 strikes--tossed in jail
Swear the penn's right across from hell
I can't cry--cause it's home now
I'm just a nigga on his own now
Livin life thug style--so i can't smile
Writin to my peoples
When they ask for pictures
Thinkin cali just fun and bitches
(hahaha)
Better learn about the dress code
B's and c's--all them other niggaz copycats
These is g's
I love cali like i love woman
Cause every nigga in la
Got a little bit of thug in em'

We might fight amongst each other
But i promise you this
We'll burn this bitch down--get us pissed
To live and die in la

~chorus~

It wouldn't be la with mexicans
Black love, brown pride
And the sets again--pete wilson
Tryin to see us all broke
I'm on some bullshit
Out for everything they owe
Remember k day
Weekends--crenshaw--mlk
Automatics rang free niggaz lost they way
Gang signs bein shown
Nigga love your hood
But recognize and it's all good
Where the weed at--niggaz gettin shermed out
Snoop dogg in this muthafucka burned out
M-o-b
Big suge in the lo lo
Bounce and turn
Dogg pound in the lex
With an ounce to burn
Got them watts niggaz with me ofcp
They got some hash
Took a stash
Left the rest for me
Neckbone--dre, heron, bungy too
Big rock got knocked
But this one's for you
I hit the studio and drop a jewel
Hoping it pay
Gettin high--watchin time fly
To live and die in la

~chorus~

Makaveli:

This goes out for 92.3, 106--all the radio stations
That be bumping my shit
Makin my shit sales quadruple, quadrople, platinum
This goes out to all the magazines
That support a nigga
All the real mufuckas
All the stores, the mom & pop spots
A&r people, all yawl mufuckas
La--california love
Part mufuckin 2 without gay ass dre


23.Trapped

You know they got me trapped in this prison of seclusion
Happiness, living on tha streets is a delusion
Even a smooth criminal one day must get caught
Shot up or shot down with tha bullet that he bought
Nine millimeter kickin' thinking about what tha streets do to me
Cause they never talk peace in tha black community
All we know is violence, do tha job in silence
Walk tha city streets like a rat pack of tyrants
Too many brothers daily heading for tha big penn
Niggas commin' out worse offthan when they went in
Over tha years i done alot of growin' up
Getten drunk thrown' up
Cuffed up
Then i said i had enough
There must be another route, way out
To money and fame, i changed my name
And played a different game
Tired of being trapped in this vicious cycle
If one more cop harrasses me i just might go psycho
And when i gettem
I'll hittem with tha bum rush
Only a lunatic would like to see his skull crushed
Yo, if your smart you'll really let me go 'g'
But keep me cooped up in this ghetto and catch tha uzi
They got me trapped....

Chorus
They got me trapped
Trapped
Trapped

They got me trapped
Can barely walk tha city streets
Without a cop harrassing me, searching me
Then asking my identity
Hands up, throw me up against tha wall
Didn't do a thing at all
I'm tellen you one day these suckers gotta fall
Cuffed up throw me on tha concrete
Coppers try to kill me
But they didn't know this was tha wrong street
Bang bang, down another casualty
But it's a cop who's shot there's brutality
Who do you blame?
It's a shame because tha mans slain
He got caught in tha chains of his own game
How can i feel guilty after all tha things they did to me
Sweated me, hunted me
Trapped in my own community
One day i'm gonna bust
Blow up on this society
Why did ya lie to me ?
I couldn't find a trace of equality
Work me like a slave while they laid back
Homie don't play that
It's time i lett'em suffer tha payback
I'm tryin to avoid physical contact
I can't hold back, it's time to attack jack
They got me trapped

Chorus
You know they got me trapped
Trapped
You know they got me trapped

Now i'm trapped and want to find a getaway
All i need is a 'g' and somewhere safe to stay
Can't use tha phone
Cause i'm sure someone is tappin in
Did it before
Ain't scared to use my gat again
I look back at hindsite the fight was irrelevant
But now he's tha devils friend
Too late to be tellin' him
He shot first and i'll be damned if i run away
Homie is done away i should of put my gun away
I wasn't thinkin' all i heard was tha ridicule
Girlies was laughin', tup sayin 'damn homies is dissin you'
I fired my weapon
Started steppin' in tha hurricane
I got shot so i dropped
Feelin' a burst of pain
Got to my feet
Couldn't see nothin' but bloody blood
Now i'm a fugitive to be hunted like a murderer
Ran through an alley
Still lookin' for my getaway
Coppers said freeze, or you'll be dead today
Trapped in a corner
Dark and i couldn't see tha light
Thoughts in my mind was tha nine and a better life
What do i do ?
Live my life in a prison cell
I'd rather die than be trapped in a living hell
They got me trapped

Chorus
They got me trapped
Trapped
You know they got me trapped
Trapped


24.Troublesome'96

La la la lala la... all ya niggaz die
Troublesome nigga
Troublesome 19-motherfucking-96
Westside
Let it be known nigga
The boss of all bosses
Makaveli

Menacing methods
Label me a lethal weapon
Making niggas die
Witnessing breathless imperfections
Can you picture my specific plan?
To be the man
In this wicked land
Underhanded hits are planned
These scams are plotted
Over grams of rocks
And undercover agents die by the random shots
We all die in the end so revenge we swore
I was all about my ends
Fuck friends and foes
Me a born leader never leave the block without my heater
Got me a dog and named him mobb-bitch nigga eater
??what could they do to me you little brat??
Shit them niggas done shot me
And still terrified i get (hahaha) they ass
How can i show you how i feel inside?
We outlawz motherfuckers can't kill my pride
Niggaz talk alot of shit but thats after i'm gone
Cuz they fear me in the physical form
Let it be known i'm troublesome

(2pac talking)
Troublesome nigga
Outlawz
We put it down to the fullest
Spitting rhymes and bullets
Haha...
Troublesome
Ya'll know what time it is
Call the punk police they can't stop us
Niggas run the streets haha..
Troublesome
Yeah
Gutter ways
My mentality is ghetto
A guerrilla in this criminal war we all rebels
Death before dishonor
Bet i bomb on em first
Niggas knew we came for murder
Pulling up in the hurse
Westside was the warcry
Busting on friendly's
Screaming fuck all ya'll niggas in swahili
Pistol packing fresh outta jail
I ain't going back
Release me to the care of my heartless trap
Say my name three times like candyman
Bet i roll on your ass like an avalanche
A sole survivor
Learn to get high and pull drive-bys
Murder my foes, can't control my nine
Hearing thoughts of my enemies pleading please
Buster ass motherfuckers tried to flea
Picture me letting this chump survive
Ran up on his ass when i dump he died
Cuz i'm troublesome
(2pac talking)
Young, strapped, and i don't give a fuck
I'm hopelesssss
I live a thuglife losing my focus baby
I'm troublesome
Haha...
Badboy killa
There is no one realler
What you saw was the rough rugged and raw
Outlaw outlaw
Murder, murder my mind state
Shit ain't changed since my last rhyme
The crime rate ain't declined
Niggas busting shots like they lost they minds
Like 25-2-life never crossed they mind
Tell me young nigga never learned a thing
Dead at 13 cuz he yearned to bang
Sent alot of flowers
But how could i cry?
Tried to warn the little nigga
Either stop or die
Mercy is for the weak
When i speak i scream
Afraid to spleep
I'm having crazy dreams
Vivid pictures of my enemies family times
God forgive me cuz its wrong
But i plan to die
Either take me in heaven
And understand i was a g
Did the best i could raised in insanity
Or send me to hell
Cuz i ain't begging for my life
Ain't nothing worse than this cursed ass hopeless life
I'm troublesome
(2pac speaking)
In your wildest dreams
You couldn't picture a nigga like me
Hahaha
I'm troublesome
I don't give a fuck
Ima troublesome

All the real troublesome soldiers on the streets


25.Unconditional Love

(what y'all want?)unconditional love (no doubt)
Talking bout the stuff that don't wear off
It don't fade
It'll last for all these crazy days
These crazy nights
Whether you wrong or you right
I'm a still love you
Still feel you
Still there for you
No matter what (hehe)
You will always be in my heart
With unconditional love

Come listen to my truest thoughts, my truest feelings
All my peers doing years beyond drug dealing
How many caskets can we witness
Before we see it's hard to live
This life without god, so we must ask forgiveness
Ask mama why god deserved to die
Witness the tears falling free from my eyes
Before she could reply
Though we were born without a silver spoon
My broken down tv, show cartoons in my living room (hey)
One day i hope to make it
A player in this game
Mama don't cry, long as we try
Maybe things change
Perhaps it's just a fantasy
A life where we don't need no welfare
Shit with our whole family
Maybe it's me that caused it
The fighting and the hurting
In my room crying cause i didn't want to be a burden
Watch mama open up her arms to hugging
And i ain't worried bout a damn thang, with unconditionl love


In this game the lesson's in your eyes to see
Though things change, the future's still inside of me
We must remember that tomorrow comes after the dark
So you will always be in my heart, with unconditional love

Just got the message you've been calling all week
Been out here hustling on these streets, ain't had a chance to
speak
But you know, with you and me it's on g
We could never be enemies, cause you been such a good friend to
me
Where would i be without my dogs
No wonder why when times get hard
Cause it ain't easy being who we are
Driven by my ambitions, desire higher positions
So i proceed to make gs, eternally in my mission
Is to be more than just a rap musician
The elevation of today's generation
If could make 'em listen
Prison ain't what we need, no longer stuck in greed
Time to play and strategize, my family's gotta eat
When we make somethin out of nothing
No pleasure in the suffering, neighborhood would be good
If they could cut out all the busting
The liquor and the weed the cussing
Sending love out to my block
The struggle never stops (unconditional love)


I'll probably never understand ya ways
With everyday i swear i hear ya
Trying to change your ways while gettin paid at the same time
Just had a baby with the same eyes
Something inside, please let me die these are strange times
How come i never made it
Maybe it's the way the played it in my heart
I knew one day i gotta be a star
My hopes and all my wishes
So many vivid pictures, and all the currency
I'll never even get to see
This fast life soon shatter us
Cause after all the lights and screams
Nothing but my dreams matter
Hoping for better days
Maybe a peaceful night, baby don't cry
Cause everythang gonna be alright
Just lay your head on my shoulder
Don't worry bout a thang baby
Girl i'm a soldier (huh)
Never treated me bad, no matter who i was
You still came with that, unconditional love


26.God Bless the Dead

Rest in peace to my mothafucka Biggie Smalls
That's right boy, it's goin on
Right here, Thug Life
God bless the dead

God bless the dead & buried nigga
Don't worry if you see God first tell Him shit got worse
I ain't mad, I know you're representin the crew
And I can picture you in Heaven with a blunt & a brew
Fuck the world, pain was a part of the game
If you a baller, money went as quick as it came
My role models gone or they locked in the pen
Straight hustlas, caught up in the whirlwind
The other day, I thought I seen my homeboy Biggie
Sayin shit don't stop, nigga, no pity
We all hoods, and all we ever had was dreams
Money makin mothafuckas plot scandalous schemes
In the gutter, you learn to have a criminal mind
I was addicted to tryin, never meant to do time
My epitaph will read 'Was the last of Gs
Kicked the shit to make the white man bleed
God bless the dead'

God bless the dead
God bless the dead
God bless the dead

Man, ain't nobody promised me a thang
I been caught up in this game
Ever since I was a little motherfucka wantin to hang
I can see 'em in my head, pow
Memories of my nigga but he dead now
Lookin back in my yearbook all the years took
Half my peers, they're stretched for years
And if I die will they all shed tears
Two to the dome, leave me alone, let me get my head clear
Paranoid got me lookin in the mirror
Behind me, life without my nine, I'd rather do the time
See I'm old enough to know that ain't no justice
Fuck the police & all the courts same way they fucked us
And why the hell am I locked in jail
They let them white boys free, we be shocked as hell
In my mind I can see it comin
And all the time it's a plot to keep a nigga runnin
By keepin gun & never run unless I'm comin at ya
Cry later but for now let's enjoy the laughter
God bless the dead


Rest in peace to all the motherfuckas that passed too early
All the young motherfuckas that was took in they prime
Real motherfuckin Gz, this one is for you
Yo Stretch, Biggie

Yo Big this is to you my nigga
Springfield Hollis crew, Thug Life, YGz
Sendin they respect, know I mean?
You my nigga for life, forever
You're always gonna be with a nigga
No matter what, don't forget that

I pray before I go to sleep
'Dear God save my place before I start to eat, cause times is
hard
So I'm covered to my knees, oh why?
Why you had to take my nigga with the rock I buy?
You had to take a good one, a ghetto hood son, uzi weighin a ton
Niggas terrified of comin from the young gun
Hearin that they did it outta fear don't amaze me
But it's mind blowin, so I'm flowin goin crazy
Slip for cock the gun but he didn't run like a punk
He shoulda had the gauge in the trunk
For spunk is what he had, kid, I'd ratha attack Big
Now ya bout to smell the aftermath of what the mack did
Wannabe suckers wanna test, I'm tellin you, yes
The teflon's bout to rip through your fuckin vest
Guess who? I'll make a mess of your crew quick
The spirit Biggie Smalls and the ??? clique, yeah
God bless the dead
God bless the dead
God bless the dead
God bless the dead
