“Holla If Ya Hear Me”

Aww yeah, uhh, uhh
Holla if ya hear me, yeah!

[Verse One] Here we go, turn it up, let’s start
From block to block we snatchin hearts and jackin marks
And the punk police can’t fade me, and maybe
We can have peace someday G
But right now I got my mind set up
Lookin down the barrel of my nine, get up
Cause it’s time to make the payback fat
To my brothers on the block better stay strapped, black
And accept no substitutes
I bring truth to the youth tear the roof off the whole school
Oh no, I won’t turn the other cheek
In case ya can’t see us while we burn the other week
Now we got him in a smash, blast
How long will it last ‘til the po’ gettin mo’ cash
Until then, raise up!
Tell my young black males, blaze up!
Life’s a mess don’t stress, test
I’m givin but be thankful that you’re livin, blessed
Much love to my brothers in the pen
See ya when I free ya if not when they shove me in
Once again it’s an all out scrap
Keep your hands on ya gat, and now ya boys watch ya back
Cause in the alleys out in Cali I’ma tell ya
Mess with the best and the vest couldn’t help ya
Scream, if ya feel me; see it clearly?
You’re too near me –

[Chorus] [2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Hard!” .. “Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”
[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Hard!” .. “Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”
[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Hard!” .. “Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”

[Verse Two] Pump ya fists like this
Holla if ya hear me – PUMP PUMP if you’re pissed
To the sell-outs, livin it up
One way or another you’ll be givin it up, huh
I guess cause I’m black born
I’m supposed to say peace, sing songs, and get capped on
But it’s time for a new plan, BAM!
I’ll be swingin like a one man, clan
Here we go, turn it up, don’t stop
To my homies on the block gettin dropped by cops
I’m still around for ya
Keepin my sound underground for ya
And I’ma throw a change up
Quayle, like you never brought my name up
Now my homies in the backstreets, the blackstreets
They fell me when they rollin in they fat jeeps
This ain’t just a rap song, a black song
Tellin all my brothers, get they strap on
And look for me in the struggle
Hustlin ‘til other brothers bubble –

[Chorus] [2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”
[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Hard!” .. “Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”
[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Hard!” .. “Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”
[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Hard!” .. “Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”
[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!

[Verse Three] Will I quit, will I quit?
They claim that I’m violent, but still I keep
representin, never give up, on a good thing
Wouldn’t stop it if we could it’s a hood thing
And now I’m like a major threat
Cause I remind you of the things you were made to forget
Bring the noise, to all my boyz
Know the real from the bustas and the decoys
And if ya hustle like a real G
Pump ya fists if ya feel me, holla if ya hear me
Learn to survive in the nine-tre’
I make rhyme pay, others make crime pay
Whatever it takes to live and stand
Cause nobody else’ll give a damn
So we live like caged beasts
Waitin for the day to let the rage free
Still me, till they kill me
I love it when they fear me –

[Chorus] [2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”
[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Hard!” .. “Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”
[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Hard!” .. “Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”
[2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Hard!” .. “Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”

[2Pac] You’re too near me, to see it clearly

[repeat 4x] [2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Hard!” .. “Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”

[repeat 2X] “Hard!” .. “Tellin you to hear it, the rebel” – P.E.
“Tellin you to hear it..”

“Hard!” .. “The rebel”
“Hard!” .. “The rebel”

[repeat 12X to fade] [2Pac] Holla if ya hear me!
“Hard!” .. “The rebel”

“Pac’s Theme (Interlude)”

PAC’S THEME
[Statements variously said throughout song.]

I was raised in this society so there’s no way
you can expect me to be a perfect person cuz I’m a do what I’m a do.
(I am still thirsty) – Arrested Development
(There is absolutly no reason for a record like this to be published.
It has no place in our society.) – Dan Quayle
(They gotta understand me)
(Withdraw on this record) – Dan Quayle
That’s how I feel I’m a do whatever I like. I am not a role model

“Point The Finga”

“You could get the finger.. the middle!” [1] “Come and get some!” [2] [2Pac] Ahh yeah, they love to point the finger
[1] [2]

Boom boom boom on your black ass, bitch
[1] [2] Niggaz love to point the finga
Boom boom boom on your black ass, bitch
[1] [2] [2Pac] I thought I hit rock bottom, they ban my album, point the finga
I guess nobody loves a real nigga-slash-rap singer
I thought I’d bring a little truth to the young troops
I brought proof that the niggaz need guns too
It’s not to be a racist, but let’s face this:
wouldn’t you if we could trade places?
I got lynched by some crooked cops, and to this day
them same motherfuckers on the beat gettin major paid
But when I get my check they takin tax out
So, we payin for these pigs to knock the blacks out
Ain’t that a bitch, some officers are gettin rich
Whoopin on thugs and robbin drug dealers for they shit
As far as jealousy, bein a celebrity
No matter who committed the crime, they all yell at me
And the media is greedier than most
You could sell em your soul or they’ll be on ya til a niggaz ghost
And everyday I read the paper there’s another lie
They show my picture for the crimes of another guy
Now how’s that for the life of a big shot
A dead cop, a law suit, a little kid shot
I play them nuttin ass marks in the park
for tryin to earn they stripes in the dark
Just cause I come there, don’t mean I from there, peep:
only jealous motherfuckers beef, and point the finga

[Chorus: repeat 4X]

Boom boom boom on your black ass, bitch
[1] [2] [2Pac] As I run up on em madman, a nutcase with a screw loose
A zoot troupe full of foolies with toolies
Niggaz run to me don’t come to me with beef
Take your jewels and your jeep, boom boom! Let that ass sleep
It’s gettin hectic, niggaz run, quick
Buckshots are the payback for dumb shit
All you niggaz on the block tryin to test me
Best wear a vest or get open like, sesame
I’ll run up on you mad deep; while you’re tryin to sleep
I’m steady pumpin bullets in your sheets
Wake up, motherfucker, don’t stutter
Point blank by a nigga from the gutter, yeah!
Gimme mine, gimme mine, gimme, mine
Ban my rhymes, now I’m back to bustin, nines
And bustaz can’t get none, hell no
A quick flurry and he’s buried with a swelled jaw
I came up from the amateurs to pro hits
at 5-0, so you know I take no shit
And everybody wants to kill a bringer
of bad news, so they choose, to point the finga

[Chorus] [2Pac] One two three, peace to the real G’s
Still me, til these motherfuckers kill me
I bring skills and I build, kill at will
Smoke sess til I’m ill, still feel me?
I say one two three, peace to the real G’s
Still me, til these motherfuckers kill me
Pick it up, pick it up, give it up
Best to duck or get fucked for your bucks
Scream one two three, peace to the real G’s
Still me, til these motherfuckers kill me
I can’t give up, it’s a black thang
And I ain’t goin back to the crack game
(You can do it son; be a man and stand up or run)
Bitches, let em point the finga
(You can do it son; be a man and stand up or run)
Snitches, let em point the finga
Yo, one two three, peace to the real G’s
Still me, til these motherfuckers kill me
I guess nobody loves a rap singer
That’s why these motherfuckers.. (hahaha!) point the finga

[Chorus] [Chorus] [Chorus 3/4]

“Something 2 Die 4 (Interlude)”

[laughter echoed]

I’ve changed…
You mothafuckas kill me
I’ve changed…

It ain’t that i’ve changed
But it’s strange how you mothafuckas rearrange
When I found fame
Point ya finger at tha bad guy

You know what my momma usta tell me
If ya can’t find something ta live 4

Then you BEST, find something ta die 4

(eazy saying ‘if there’s hell below, we’re all gonna
go’–this is all through out tha interlude)

Deep deep

La’tasha Hardings
Remember that name…
Cause a bottle of juice…
Ain’t something 2 die 4

Young Quaid
Remember that name…
Cause all you mothafuckas
That go to your grave with that name on your brain
Cause jelousy and recklousness
Is NOT, something 2 die 4

All you Niggas out there
[echoed laughter] Got a crack that crumbles
When I say all you Niggas (all you niggas)
Unite
One nigga, teach 2 niggas
4 niggas teach more niggas
All tha poor niggas
Tha penn niggas
Tha rich niggas
Tha strong niggas
UNITE

There’s more of us than there is of them
Look around…
Check your strip

Deep deep

That’s something 2 die 4

Black

That’s something 2 live 4

What do I know?

(?Hit the mob dope?)

Where was you when there was niggas in the caskets?
Mutha-fucker rednecks all the same
Feel a real nigga if he ain’t balled and chained
That’s why we burn shit and wreck
Cause the punk police ain’t learned shit yet
You mutha-fuckas gonna pay the price
Can’t make a Black life, don’t take a Black life
It’s on, the next real nigga fall dead
Dred, jheri curl, process, or bald head
Be prepared for the smoke to bust
What niggas need to do is start loc’in up
United we stand divided we fall
They can shoot one nigga
But they can’t take us alll
Let’s get along with the Mexicans
And we can all have peace on the sets again
Imagine that if it took place [ha ha ha] Keeping the smile off their white fakes
I ain’t racist but lets trade places
Trace the hate ‘n face it
One nigga teach two niggas
three teach four niggas
And them niggas teach more niggas
And when we blast
That’ll be the biggest blast you’ve heard
And them is my last wordz

“Peep Game”
(feat. Threat)

So what the fuck you talkin about?! Aw, shit.
Goody, goody, gumdrops.
Nigaa, get your hoodie and your gun cocked.
Rock it till the drum stops.
Hip hop.
Even if my shit flip flop
It probably wouldn’t stop.
Talk shit and get socked.
How ya hang em?
Know a realer nigga? You could bring him.
If I don’t represent the shit,
I’ll kick it.
We could sway him.
Huh. As if I know ya.
Then I could show ya.
But if I don’t know, I gotta fo’ fo’ fo’ ya.
So, so peep game
At point blank range.
The fame can’t change what the game maintains.
Strange. Wind against the grain.
Aw shit. Flick or no flick I trips for no bitch.
Catch up on your pimpin.
I ain’t simpin. I’m a dis her.
Couldn’t be my sister if she actin like I missed her.
Tell me why they, tell me why they, tell me why they play me.
Don’t these niggas know that neiter one of y’all can fade me.
I ain’t big, I ain’t buff, I ain’t deisel.
But fuck wit Tupac and pop goes the weisel.
Me and Threat made a bet on how many fellas
Would jack a motha fuckin real nigga cuz they jealous.
They do it for the fame.
Explain. Insane. What’s in a name? What’s in a name?
Peep game.

[Chorus repeats] Punk bitch, how ya like me now?
Can’t fuck around wit the funky style.
Put it together like a puzzle builder.
If Trenton don’t get cha, pops gon’ kill ya.

Killa Cali.
The state where they kill.
Down wit Oaktown? What’s up homie, can I chill?
The bitches lookin funny.
Feel em at me. Feel em at me wit they minds on they heaven
Wit they .357.
-Where you at?
*On the freeway, deep in LA.
-OK, see you when get here loc.
*OK.
-Here I am. Here I am.
*Goddamn that was quick.
-Told ya I was comin. Who is that? Is that your woman?
*Na, that’s just a hoochie looking for some juice.
-What’s up my nigga? What ya know? A nigga got a little bigger.
That’s all folks know.
Fat gold ropes.
Gotta keep a low key for my attack.
When I approach, I want the diamonds, the pearls.
The round the way girls.
Cuz baby got, baby got back out this world.
Would you give a fee? Never.
Fly like a feather.
Make more money than your father and your mother put together.
The game is to be sold, not to be told.
So buy it.
Can’t afford it?
Low budget hoes gotta brother.
Peep game.

[Chorus repeats]

Don’t sell out.
Get the hell out.
Cuz here I come.
Hit em with my bop gun.
They came and they blast.
We got witt they ass.
And oh, pop this vest and all the rest of that mess.
Comin through like Terminater 2.
Boost your crew cuz we ain’t afraid of you.
You know what time it is wit me once the clock stike 3.
We goin coo-coo like Cocoa Puffs. Whooo eeii!!!

[Chorus repeats]

Time to get paid, time to get paid. Check.
Time to represent the west. On me: nuttin but a vest.
Got my hands on my glock, eyes on the prize.
First sucka jump, first sucka die.
Gimme mine, gimme mine, gimme mine like I told ya.
Hard as a boulder.

Boom bam boom!! It’s a stick up.
Vice president Dan Quayle eat a dick up.
Peep game.

[Chorus repeats]

(Spoken by Tupac)
Punk motha fucka.

Yeah nigga, bitch.

“Strugglin'”
(feat. Live Squad)

(Eat a dick up)
“Stick up, stick up, stick up kids…
still don’t nothin move but the money” — [Rakim] [Verse One: Live Squad]

Strugglin, jugglin, got it to the black man
Eatin the scams like I was motherfuckin Pac Man
Cops step off, you know the flavor
They fear the ruffneck niggaz with the lunatic behavior
And now we gotta eat, gotta make ends meet
Stabbin for a fee, it gets hard on the fuckin streets
It’s like a madness, fuck making gravy
I rhyme and do crimes, cuz either way pays me
A little rough with a hardcore… theme
Couldn’t rough something rougher in your… dreams
Mad rugged so you know we’re gonna… rip
With that roughneck nigga named 2Pacalypse
Representing YG’z yo
Flip Stretch Homicide and my nigga Gambino
Seek and Po can’t forget Money Bags
Stickin up spots and jumpin in Jags
Gotta get ahead and always stay bumblin
And always keep a hand on the gat
Cuz a niggaz straight strugglin

[Verse Two: Live Squad]

I used to be on tour, but now I’m sick of strugglin
I thought about bumpin, but mother-fuck jugglin
I know it lasts longer, gets my pockets thicker
But I’d rather use my gun cause I get the money quicker, so bust it
Look as I cut the records hard to eject
A quick clip threw my body down uhh! it’s another hit
I got energy to blast now you want the task here
Cuz of the light a motherfucker shot that ass up
But rugged and rough is how I’m steppin
Mac is the weapon, and it’s always kept in
Eye on the Mac cause the dogg got it goin on
If you come up steppin you’ll be lit like a hick
So you better chill, cause I got too much money to get
A street thug in the motherfuckin house, I’m strugglin
Get drunk but I don’t think
I’m just in it for the money, don’t be a punk snitch
When I yank up my gun, don’t run don’t bitch
Cause ya know if you do, you’ll be layin in a ditch
You’ll get your stupid ass blown out the frame
Cause I’m playing to win, and survive in the game
I’m strugglin

[Verse Three: 2Pac]

Big up, big up, got him in the frame, bang
Ain’t nothin changed set it off I let the brains hang
Guess who’s back, to put niggaz on they back
Till I call back, niggaz runnin free better fall back
I’m fifty niggaz deep beat sleep
with a Mossberg wrapped in my seats
three deep in my Jeep chief run with the Young Gunz
Strugglin and strivin, that’s how the dough come
Now get gunned by the one with the gun for the low goal
Throw a bolo so low when I flow yo
Much too high to read the signs, I’m blind
Clickin on the nine, out to get mine
I go big up, big up, gotta make the room, boom
Blowin motherfuckers to the moon
Niggaz need to feel me a real G, home from the bumblin
See me on the block, strugglin
And rollin with the roughnecks nuff checks cashed
I get in niggaz ass, blast
Straight strugglin

“Guess Who’s Back”

Guess who’s back?

[2Pac] Drop the drums, here it comes, only got
two minutes to bounce, and every second counts
Better press, wreck on your tech, here we go, set pass the Moet
My trickery’s more slippery when wet
Wicked as I flip, don’t trip, get a grip
It’ll kick, if the bass line’s thick, it’s a hit
Everybody’s got a mic now, its like a hobby
But more like a job, cause bootleggers tryin to rob me
And little man wants to be a rap, star
Make papes, hit skins, drive a fat car
It ain’t easy, sleazy even
Deceivin those we, believe in
No benefits, just tricks and chicks
Knock a pig to pick, so here’s a stick to lick
I shoot a gift, til there ain’t none left
And if I find that the track sound def
I catch wreck till I lose my breath
That’s how it goes in the land of broke
I dispose of those, rock shows, and collect my dough
Now I suppose I’m the bad guy, why?
I say, “Hi,” and try to stay high
Life’s a mess don’t stress, test.. of givin
but be thankful that you’re livin.. blessed
Guess who’s back, comin back with the track supplied
by Special Ed and Ak, comin right and exact
I’m fightin it back, now snap, where they at?
When it’s time to go to combat, guess who’s back

[Chorus: repeat 4X]

“Yes I’m back” – [Special Ed] “Tupac is” .. back!!

[2Pac] Drop the drums, here it comes, only got
one minute to bounce, and every second counts
I went from hustlin dicks, to makin hits, bustin flicks
Now I’m sure to be rich for ninety-six
I pull my ‘capes on tapes, and make, papes
Trace the bass, to the tape with the baddest bass to date
I try to shake it but the pace is hard to break
Good thoughts I wait, cause they hate my black take
Yeah, it’s on, and it’s packed in the rap race
But if ya got a black face, its a rat race
I struggle to be rugged and raw, Dukes
Tryin to survive in the trials and lawsuits
Everybody wants to test me, WHY ME?
No lie, nuckas cried when they try me
Givin up the roughness, justice
I’ma bust as I’m rippin up ‘nuff hits
And guess who’s back? No longer trapped
Cause I snapped on the ones that held me back, feel the contact
Ride the track, get I grip as I flip
Ghetto wickedness I kick, guess who’s back?

[Chorus 1.5X]

“Yes I’m back, cause I never did front” – [cut ‘n’ scratched]

“Representin ’93”

I got a head, but ain’t no screws in it.

Roll up and get swoll up.
Hold up.
How ya gonna play me like a sunkin dunkin donut?
I ain’t came a long way to get checked
So give me respect when I get wreck or get your motha fuckin chin
check.
Once again, it’s your friend outta Oakland.
Hoping I rock the shit to get ya open.
Say your looking for some real shit.
Then catch a funkdified batch.
Like that!!
Oakland’s on the map.
Tupac is on the big screen strivin.

“Keep Ya Head Up”

Little somethin for my godson Elijah and a little girl named Corinne

[Verse One:]

Some say the blacker the berry, the sweeter the juice
I say the darker the flesh then the deeper the roots
I give a holler to my sisters on welfare
Tupac cares, and don’t nobody else care
And uhh, I know they like to beat ya down a lot
When you come around the block brothas clown a lot
But please don’t cry, dry your eyes, never let up
Forgive but don’t forget, girl keep your head up
And when he tells you you ain’t nuttin don’t believe him
And if he can’t learn to love you you should leave him
Cause sista you don’t need him
And I ain’t tryin to gas ya up, I just call em how I see em
You know it makes me unhappy (what’s that)
When brothas make babies, and leave a young mother to be a pappy
And since we all came from a woman
Got our name from a woman and our 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 to kill for our women
Time to heal our women, be real to our women
And if we don’t we’ll have a race of babies
That will hate the ladies, that make the babies
And since a man can’t make one
He has no right to tell a woman when and where to create one
So will the real men get up
I know you’re fed up ladies, but keep your head up

[Chorus]

Keep ya head up, oooo child things are gonna get easier
ooooo child things are gonna get brighter [2x] [Verse Two:]

Aiyyo, I remember Marvin Gaye, used to sing ta me
He had me feelin like black was tha thing to be
And suddenly tha ghetto didn’t seem so tough
And though we had it rough, we always had enough
I huffed and puffed about my curfew and broke the rules
Ran with the local crew, and had a smoke or two
And I realize momma really paid the price
She nearly gave her life, to raise me right
And all I had ta give her was my pipe dream
Of how I’d rock the mic, and make it to tha bright screen
I’m tryin to make a dollar out of fifteen cents
It’s hard to be legit and still pay tha rent
And in the end it seems I’m headin for tha pen
I try and find my friends, but they’re blowin in the wind
Last night my buddy lost his whole family
It’s gonna take the man in me to conquer this insanity
It seems tha rain’ll never let up
I try to keep my head up, and still keep from gettin wet up
You know it’s funny when it rains it pours
They got money for wars, but can’t feed the poor
Say there ain’t no hope for the youth and the truth is
it 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 to survive, cause it’s a setup
And even though you’re fed up
Huh, ya got to keep your head up

[Chorus] [Verse Three:]

And uhh
To all the ladies havin babies on they own
I know it’s kinda rough and you’re feelin all alone
Daddy’s long gone and he left you by ya lonesome
Thank the Lord for my kids, even if nobody else want em
Cause I think we can make it, in fact, I’m sure
And if you fall, stand tall and comeback for more
Cause ain’t nuttin worse than when your son
wants to kno why his daddy don’t love him no mo’
You can’t complain you was dealt this
hell of a hand without a man, feelin helpless
Because there’s too many things for you to deal with
Dying inside, but outside you’re looking fearless
While tears, is rollin down your cheeks
Ya steady hopin things don’t all down this week
Cause if it did, you couldn’t take it, and don’t blame me
I was given this world I didn’t make it
And now my son’s getten older and older and cold
From havin the world on his shoulders
While the rich kids is drivin Benz
I’m still tryin to hold on to my survivin friends
And it’s crazy, it seems it’ll never let up, but
please… you got to keep your head up

“Strictly 4 My N.I.G.G.A.Z.”

[‘Pac speaking] Yo ‘Law!
Is it cool if a nigga just get fucked up for this one?
Yeah! Mr. Fuck-a-Cop is BACK..
and I still don’t give a fuck, yaknahmsayin?
Puffin on this indo.. in the studio with my partners out here
Pacific Heights in the house, know what I mean

[2Pac] I was framed, so don’t make the same mistake, nigga
You gotta learn how to shake the snakes, nigga
Cause the police love to break a nigga
Send em upstate cause they straight-up hate the niggaz
So what I do is get a crew of zoo niggaz
Straight fools into rules and do niggaz
And one-time had enough of me
I’m still raw so the law can’t fuck with me
They wanna send me to the pen, punk picture that
I stay strapped motherfuckers better get your gat
It ain’t easy bein me I can’t take it
Life as a celebrity ain’t everything they make it
And ever since the movies, these hoes try to do me
If they can’t screw me, they find a way to sue me
Now can you picture me coolin, at a night club?
Nothin but love, but motherfuckers wanna mean mug
Since I wear a lot of gold, they plot
Don’t know what I got, and get shot with the hot ones
And aww yeah, I wanna feel guilty
but you punk motherfuckers tried to milk me
You’ll get smacked behind the hill with my phone on my pager
It’s beepin while I cut you with my razor
I’m not violent, I’m petrified and nervous
I got no mercy for these niggaz tryin to serve us
But if you catch me outta pocket, then I’m got
You love to shoot a nigga but you scared to pop a cop
Now drop it

[Chorus: 2Pac]

Strictly for my – strictly for my – strictly for my niggaz
Strictly for my – strictly for my – strictly for my niggaz
Strictly for my – strictly for my – strictly for my niggaz
Strictly for my niggaz makin G’s

[2Pac] Reflected and disrespected, plus I’m rejected
You’re just another rapper, who swears he’s makin records
That’s what they said – whenever I would walk by
I never tripped though – always kept my head up high
Eventually, I knew that I would find my way
After the darkest night, always comes a brighter day
And some would say, that turned away is all you’ll get
I just said, “bet,” and never let ‘em see me sweat
Cause in the end, I knew that I would have it all
while non-believers, were prayin for my downfall
And some would call, and tell me that they wish me well
but in my heart, I’m knowin that they wish me hell
Yo get a real job, rappin doesn’t pay the rent
I hate the studio cause that’s where all my money went
Never surrender, it’s all about the faith you’ve got
Don’t ever stop, just push it til you hit the top
And if you drop, at least you know you gave your all
Be true to you, and that way you can never fall
But beware, these backstabbers ain’t no joke
Just like a rope, they hang on you until you’re broke
And when you’re broke, they move onto the next dope
And there you are, can’t even pay your car, nope
And when you reminisce, thinkin how you got dissed
remember how it felt, and then remember this
Be true to you, believe that there’s no one bigger
Cause they can all suck dick – it’s strictly for my niggaz

[Chorus] [2Pac] (This is) This is for the critics if you live up
Pick up my shit or I’ll be back doin stickups
I better see five stars next to my picture
If not, Tupac will cop the glock and come knockin to getcha
I told you once motherfucker I’m a nut
Play me like a butt and you’ll be bleedin when you’re fucked
Niggaz know what’s up but they be tryin to hold me down
I’m comin outta Oaktown, bitch fuck around
And it ain’t where you from that makes you hardcore
Nigga it’s the way you throw them thangs in the war
And to the marks that be talkin all that shit
Screamin out the next nigga’s name like a bitch
And the niggaz that I ran into recently
The motherfuckers at the club that pulled the piece on me
You little bitches shoulda pulled the fuckin trigga
Now you live in fear of a heartless-ass nigga
Mr. Troublesome; niggaz tried to play me with the gat
but like Terminator nigga, I’ll be back
Yeah! And I’ll be back with a fuckin army
You tried to harm me — ruh-ring the alarm G!
Cause most motherfuckers love to act up
without they backup, when they get jacked up they crack up
It’s strictly for my niggaz at the show
so they know, not to play me like a ho (ho!!!)
Strictly for my…

“The Streetz R Deathrow”

Growing up as an inner city brotha
where every other had a pops and a motha
I was tha product of a heated lover
Nobody knew how deep it screwed me
and since my pops never knew me
my family didn’t know what ta do with me
was I somebody they despise
curious look in they eyes
as if they wonder if i’m dead or alive
poor momma can’t control me
quit tryin’ ta save my soul, I wanna roll with my homies
a ticken timebomb
can’t nobody fade me
packin’ a 380
and fiendin’ for my mercedes
suckers scatter
but it don’t matter i’m a cool shot
punks drop from all tha buckshots tha fools got
i’m tired of being a nice guy
i’ve been poor all my life, but don’t know quite why
so they label me a lunatic
could care less
death or success
is what I quest
cause i’m fearless
now tha streetz R Deathrow

[Chorus]

(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
tha streetz R Deathrow

I just murdered a man, i’m even more stressed
wearin’ a vest
hopein’ that their aimin’ at my chest
much too young to bite tha bullet
hand on tha trigga
I see my life before my eyes each time I pull it
I hope I live to be a man
must be part of some big plan to keep a brotha in tha state
penn
counting pennys over tha years
I’d done stacked many
proven wrong those
who swore i’d wouldn’t live till twenty
now they gotta cope
since it’s tha only thing I know
it’s difficult to let it go
i’m startin’ to loose my hair cause I worry
hustlin’ to keep from gettin’ buried
but now I gotta move away now
cause these suckers wanna spray where I lay down
my homie lost his family and snapped
shot up half tha block to bring them back
tha streetz R Deathrow

[Chorus]

(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
(like it ain’t nothin’)

i’m dangerous
when drunk I only drink beer
gin makes me sin
unable to think clear
heneesee, makes me think my enemy is getting close
BOOM BOOM BOOM
got me shooting at a ghost
some call me crazy
but this is what you gave me
amongst tha babies, who raised up from tha slavery
I sport a vest and hit tha sess to kill tha stress
moved out west and I invest in all tha best
those who test will find a bullet in they chest
put ta rest
by a brotha who was hopeless
grow up broke on tha rope of insanity
how many pistols smoking coming from a broken family
i’m sick of being tired
sick of tha sirens, body bags, and tha gun firing
tell bush to push tha button cause i’m fed
tired of hearin’ these voices in my head
tha streetz R Deathrow

[Chorus]

(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
tha streetz R Deathrow
(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
this goes out to my partners in tha Live Squad (like it
ain’t nothin’)
and all my partners involved in that 187
watch your back…
(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
There got to be a better way…
(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
There’s too many of us in tha cemetary
(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)
come on, what we gonna do now
(cause i’ll beat you down, like it ain’t nothin’)

“I Get Around”
(feat. Money B, Shock G)

Aw yeah, I get around
Still clown with the Underground, when we come around
Stronger than ever

[Tupac] Back to get wreck
All respect to those who break their neck to keep their hoes in check
Cause oh they sweat a brother 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
Ayo bust it, baby got a problem saying bye bye
Just another hazard of a fly guy
You ask why, don’t matter, my pockets got fatter
Now everybody’s looking for the latter
And ain’t no need in being greedy
If you wanna see me dial the beeper number baby when you need me
And I’ll be there in a jiffy
Don’t be picky, just be happy with this quickie
But when you learn, you can’t tie me down
Baby doll, check it out, I get around

What you mean you don’t know? I get around
The Underground just don’t stop for hoes, I get around
Still down with the Underground, I get around
Yeah, ayo Shock, let them hoes know

[Shock G] 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 cause 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 share me, I get around

[Money B] What’s up love, how you doing? (All right)
Well I’ve been hanging sanging, trying to do my thang
Oh, you heard that I was banging
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

[Tupac] 2Pacalypse Now don’t stop for hoes, I get around
Why I ain’t call you? Ha ha, please

Finger tips on the hips as I dip, gotta get a tight grip, don’t slip
Loose lips sink ships, it’s a trip
I love the way she licks her lips, see me jocking
Put a little twist in her hips cause I’m watching
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 and 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 sweating me?
It’s a lot of real G’s doing time
Cause a groupy bit the truth and 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
Cause I only got one night in town
Break out or be clown, baby doll are you down?
I get around

[Shock G] Round and round, round we go [Repeat 8x]

“Papa’z Song”
(feat. Wycked)

Daddy’s home…

[2Pac] Heh, so?
You say that like that means somethin to me
You’ve been gone a mighty long motherfuckin time
for you to be comin home talkin that “daddy’s home” shit (nigga)
We been gettin along fine just without you
Me, my brother, and my mother
So if you don’t mind, you can step the FUCK off, POPS.. fuck you!

[2Pac] Had to play catch by myself, what a sorry sight
A pitiful plight, so I pray for a starry night
Please send me a pops before puberty
the things I wouldn’t do to see a piece of family unity
Moms always work, I barely see her
I’m startin to get worried without a pops I’ll grow to be her
It’s a wonder they don’t understand kids today
so when I pray, I pray I’ll never grow to be that way
And I hope that he answers me
I heard God don’t like ugly well take a look at my family
A different father every weekend
Before we get to meet him they break up before the week ends
I’m gettin sick of all the friendships
As soon as we kick it he done split and the whole shit ends quick
How can I be a man if there’s no role model?
Strivin to save my soul I stay cold drinkin a forty bottle
I’m so sorry…

[Chorus] I’m so sorry
for all this time (I’m so sorry)
for all this time
for all this time (don’t lie)
I’m so sorry
for all this time (so, sorry)
for all this time
for all this time, so sorry baby!

[Wycked] Moms had to entertain many men
Didn’t wanna do it but it’s time to pay the rent again
I’m gettin a bit older and I’m startin to be a bother
Moms can’t stand me cause I’m lookin like my father
Should I stay or run away, tell me the answer
Moms ignores me and avoids me like cancer
Grow up rough and it’s hard to understand stuff
Moms was tough cause his poppa wasn’t man enough
Couldn’t stand up to his own responsibilities
Instead of takin care of me, he’d rather live lavishly
That’s why I’ll never be a father;
unless you got the time it’s a crime don’t even bother
(That’s when I started hatin the phony smiles
Said I was an only child)
Look at mama’s lonely smile
It’s hard for a son to see his mother cry
She only loves you, but has to fuck with these other guys
I’m so sorry…

[Chorus] I’m so sorry
for all this time
for all this time
for all this time
I’m so sorry
for all this time
for all this time (so sorry)
for all this time, so sorry baby!

[2Pac] Man child in the promised land couldn’t afford many heroes
Moms was the only one there my pops was a no-show
And ohh -I guess ya didn’t know
that I would grow to be so strong
Lookin kinda pale, was it the ale oh pops was wrong
Where was the money that you said, you would send me
talked on the phone and you sounded so friendly
Ask about school and my welfare
but it’s clear, you ain’t sincere hey who the hell cares
You think I’m blind but this time I see you comin, Jack
You grabbed your coat, left us broke, now ain’t no runnin back
Ask about my moms like you loved her from the start
Left her in the dark, she fell apart from a broken heart
So don’t even start with that “wanna be your father” shit
Don’t even bother with your dollars I don’t need it
I’ll bury moms like you left me all alone G
Now that that I finally found you, stay the Fuck away from me
You’re so sorry..

[Chorus] I’m so sorry (so sorry)
for all this time (so, so sorry)
for all this time (I’m so so sorry)
for all this time (fuck that!)
I’m so sorry
for all this time (no)
for all this time (so sorry)
for all this time, so sorry baby!

[Tupac – impersonating his father] I never meant to leave but I was wanted
Crossed too many people every house I’d touch was haunted
Had to watch the strangers every brother was in danger
If I was to keep you breathin, had to be out of range-a
Had to move, one to lost my name and pick the number
Made me watch my back I had no happy home to run to
Maybe it’s my fault for being a father livin fast
But livin slow, mean half the dough, and you won’t get no ass
Hindsight shows me it was wrong all along
I wanted to make some dough so you would grow to be so strong
It took a little longer than I thought
I slipped, got caught, and sent to jail by the courts
Now I’m doin time and I wish you’d understand
all I ever wanted was for you to be a man
and grow to be the type you was meant to be
Keep the war fightin by the writings that you sent to me
I’m so sorry…
