Hehehe, these are my words to my first born..

|
[2Pac]
|
Can you picture, young niggaz in a rush to grow
|
til hard timers in the pen, had to crush his throat
|
Probably never even saw it comin - too busy bullshittin
|
Caught him with his mouth runnin; ain't this a bitch
|
They got me twisted in this game
|
The feds and the punk, po-lice pointin pistols at my brain
|
I wonder if I'm wrong cause I'm thugged out
|
My homies murdered execution style runnin in the drug house
|
what was supposed to be a easy hit - now shit is flipped
|
cause niggaz died over bullshit - it's not my dream
|
I'm seein pictures of a broken man, no witnesses
|
Only the questions of who smoked the man, young adolescents
|
in our prime live a life of crime, though it ain't logical
|
We hobble through these tryin times, livin blind
|
Lord help me with my troubled soul
|
Why all my homies had to die 'fore they got to grow?
|
And right before I put my head on the pillow, say a prayer one love
|
to the thugs in heaven I'll see you there
|
It's written for the young and dumb that wasn't warned
|
Help you make it through the storm
|
My words to my first born, feel me
|
|
.. My words to my first born
|
.. My words to my first born
|
|
[2Pac]
|
Since my very first day on this earth, I was cursed
|
So I knew, that the birth of a child would make my life worse
|
And though it hurt me there was no distortion
|
Cause wild seeds can't grow, we need more abortions
|
Quiet your soul, cause you know what you had to do
|
And so did victims of a world they never came to
|
I understand it's a better day comin
|
Sometimes cats be sleepin on the dead end
|
drivin with the car runnin blinded
|
Ain't no love in the hood only hearts torn
|
Love letters to the innocent and unborn
|
All the babies that died up on the table
|
Wasn't able to breathe, cause the family wasn't able
|
Can't - blame her I would do the same
|
All I could give it was my debt and my last name
|
Cause in the game things change livin up and down
|
This hard life got me walkin with my head down
|
Flashin frowns wasn't meant to be, was I wrong?
|
But I'll never get to know, so I carry on
|
It's written for the young and dumb that wasn't born
|
My words to my first born, feel me
|
|
.. My words to my first born
|
.. Mmm! (Yeah) These are the words to my first born
|
.. Hey nigga talk to your born, talk to your seed nigga
|
|
[Above the Law]
|
Two thousand somethin somethin it's a new era
|
A nigga's too real, now see shit too clear
|
See there's more than just this scrilla and this tilt
|
(What else is it dawg?)
|
The velvet and the silk, and makin sure my kittens got they milk
|
(Hoo!) Gotta fill this mattress, let my kids know I'm at this
|
Attack this, the Mack must roll, hood stroll
|
Ain't no question is it? Above the Law hustlers
|
If it's related to chips, homey we'll handle ya
|
|
Yo..
|
Although we never take advantage though we always into ery'thang
|
By all means, stack green, gangsta lean
|
They say money make the world go 'round
|
So only 'ssociate yourself with paper chasers
|
and niggaz that's truly down - and keep God first
|
And give thanks for the good times, as well as when it hurts
|
It's player haters every corner you hit
|
Touchin their tits, hella thick, tryin to get you for yo' grip
|
I know you stressed out and fed up
|
But come out, gun-blazin, and keep yo' head up
|
You can call it what you want to but it ain't gon' change
|
Above the Law, 2Pac, O.G.'s in this rap game
|
And we done lived a long hard life
|
And we done shed so many tears under these bright lights
|
Y'all, although we grew up, corrupted and scorned
|
We still got a lot of wisdom, to give to our first born
|
|
[2Pac]
|
What you gon' tell your kids nigga?
|
Who was you? What was you doin? How did you put it down?
|
These my words to my motherfuckin first born
|
so they can know, y'knahmean? Hehehe
|
Ain't nuttin but a motherfuckin rider, Wessyde 'til I die
|
That's all it was, it's a crooked-ass hand they deal a motherfucker
|
I just played to win, just played to win
|
Motherfucker gotta bet agains
